My son bought a 2017 kia Soul less than a year ago with about 57,000 miles. On Tuesday oct 11, 2020 the car kept stalling when driving and then wouldn't start. Also, the oil pressure light kept flashing so he checked the oil. He had the oil previously changed on Aug 29, 2020. The dipstick came up empty. He added oil and when he drove it to firestone auto repair shop, the oil light flashed every time the car stopped at a light. Firestone first said nothing was wrong. He left there only to find it doing the same thing. It stalled when he was making a turn onto a busy road. He took it back to firestone where the diagnostic finally said it was a bad oil pump. They suggested to him to take it to kia because it would need a new engine. Ford/kia said the engine is blown and it is not under warranty because he is the second owner. The warranty for the second owner ends at 60,000 miles and this car now has 68,000 miles.
