I was driving. I came to a red light. The light turned green. The car in front of me went. I pushed on gas. The person n front of me hit brakes. I hit my brakes, felt a huge jolt. Car accelerated and was not braking. I slammed into the back of vehicle. I was wearing a seltbelt, but my knees slammed into dashboard. Air bags did not go off which everyone was surprised by this. I ended at hospital with a concussion, injuries to my knees, right ankle. . Etc my 2014 kia Soul has been determined to be totalled. I have contacted you previously stating my vehicle had issues that were a safety hazard. I was told to keep checking for my VIN to get added to a recall list. Now this has happened. I was admitted to hospital as well.
I get regular oil changes on my car. Had one done 30 days ago. Found out this morning the car was without oil but showed no signs of a leak, fumes, burning of oil. Nothing!!! was doing 55 mph on the highway when it simply died. The gas peddle tightened up and the car turned off. No warning lights. Upon starting it I noticed a baseball card in the wheel of a bike noise. I thought my belt was going bad. Not the case. After stalling out on the highway I had to have it towed to a shop. They diagnosed that there is a destroyed bearing in the engine due to it loosing all of its oil. They told me that a fire could have happened due to this issue. They have informed me I need a new engine and the car is not drive-able. I just bought it 7 months ago. The warranty is up. And I'm going to make payments on a car I can't drive. 2014 kia Soul with a 2. 0 engine.
