Engine Noise problems of the 2015 Kia Motor Soul

Car is burning oil at a very rapid rate and the engine is making noise when in idle. Mechanic checked the compression and found that the piston rings are wearing out and we need a new motor. Kia will not work with us at the moment, and says there is no evidence of the car burning oil even though we're having to add oil every 500 miles. We are now stuck making payments on a car that is not safe to drive for our family. We feel this should be included in the most recent recall on kia�s.

Internal engine noises, no engine codes or idiot lights of any kind.

We had the oil changed before a trip out of town. Confirmed oil was full, drove out of town, once back home the car started making a noise under the hood. No warning light at all. Had car towed to dealership, they now tell me that it spun a bearing and the whole engine needs replacing. We bought this car as a certified per-owned and it should be covered under warranty. Now they want to see all of my receipts for oil changes for the past 2 years. I have some but not all and I am getting the feeling that they don't want to fix my car. Kia, you know this is a known problem, you can see how many folks are having the same issue, do the right think and fix all of these cars!!!.

Car burns oil excessively. Has started making bad engine noises. Visited a kia dealership mechanic. Was advised that the engine requires replacement due to damage. Noise is when in motion. Standard driving.

I was driving home and car was making a noise. Sounded like a truck. I check the oil and it was very low and dark. It had recently got an oil change. I put in 3 quarts and then it was at the right level. It stopped making the noise. But I smell gas from the tailpipe. This was before it sounded like a truck. I stepped on thee gas and the car barely moves. Then the check engine light showed up it was misfire codes multiple cylinder. I hear a loud hissing sound like a turbo or some sort of exhaust leak. Bad mileage burns a quart of oil every two days. The transmission does not shift too and it misfires.

My family and I were driving down the road when the car began making noises and died. My husband was able to guide the car to a stop but we were unable to get out of the lane and onto a shoulder. After three hours, the car was towed to the dealership. The following day, we were told that the rod bearings locked and we needed a new engine. We were told that there was still oil in the car and no metal shavings in the oil pan so it was not the result of poor maintenance. The car had been in for an oil change and maintenance check on April 3, 2019 at the same dealership. The service department said they have seen this before in kias and that it seems to be a common issue. The car has 80k miles on it.

2. 0 engine connecting rod went bad. When excelaraited car backfired loud screech sound from under hood and then knockin from engine from connecting rod. Was in motion when this happened.

I currently am on my fourth catalytic converter. My car has 240000 miles and my dealer informed me they were to only update a program and replace the converter. I let them know about the engine noise and they replaced the converter and it was making the same noise at 80000 miles when they replaced it the first time. Even after I left the dealer at the first replacement I had to return the next day after picking my car up from morgan auto group. This recall has permanently damaged my car I was lead to believe I just needed the converter replaced again and again. Finally when I received the recall letter I was convinced my car would finally be repaired properly. It was stated in the letter my engine would be replaced if need be. The dealer repeatedly explained they were to complete the system upgrade and replace the converter and nothing more. Even after I had a diagnostic test done they could only tell me I had to replace my fuel injectors at a price of 1200. 00 so I had them replaced and still my engine runs as described in the recall with damage to the pistons or another issue. I am hoping to have this issue resolved as I and my family rely on my vehicle.

I was driving at a slow speed and I noticed a strange noise. I was going up a hill and experienced a loss of power and the noise got worse. I pulled over and saw the oil light flickering below 1500 rpm so I shut it down. I waited a few minutes and checked the oil. The oil was full. I had it towed to a shop to diagnose and they told me an internal engine component has failed and that I would need a new engine. I had it towed to a kia dealership to confirm. I received the same diagnosis. The car has 65k miles on it and requires a new engine. The car has been maintained and was not neglected. I reached out to kia for assistance and they are unwilling to assist. They have also discontinued the long block engine replacement so the repair costs more now. There seems to be a shortage of the 2. 0l engine so it isn't available from rebuild shops or junkyards. I suspect that the high rate of failure of the 2. 0l engine is to blame for the shortage.

I was driving my 2015 kia Soul on my normal route to work on 4/5/18. It was a dark, clear morning on a busy highway. I was moving with traffic at approximately 60 mph. At just about 5:30 a. M. , the vehicle made a noise and lost acceleration. I was able to get to the side of the highway and park the vehicle. I was parked for approximately 3 minutes when I saw smoke and flames coming from the engine. I exited the vehicle. Shortly thereafter, the vehicle was fully engulfed in flames. No other persons or vehicles were involved in this incident. I purchased the vehicle new and it had had no significant mechanical work in the 2 � years that I owned it, just normal oil changes and a couple of safety recalls. Neither the firefighter on the scene, nor the insurance adjuster, were able to determine the cause of the fire, only that it started in the engine.
