Engine Oil Leaking problems of the 2011 Kia Motor Sportage

My vehicle had a an illuminated oil lamp on the cluster and an oil leak. On 4/08/2024 I took my 2011 kia of downtown los angeles to inspect my vehicle under safety campaign 174 (sc174 sl theta 2 - 2. 4 l mpi engine oil pan)- when kia of downtown returned my vehicle to me the invoice stated "oil pan was found not leaking , oil pressure switch was replaced" over the next few days I noticed I still had an oil leak so I made another appointment at kia of downtown la to ask them to look at the oil pan again under sc174 I brought it back to downtown la kia on 5/1/24 - this time I got a text message from them stating "verified customers concern upon inspection found oil pan to be leaking from seal" and an estimate of $845. 84 to repair it --- I called and spoke to my service advisor and she said my 'warranty was voided beacause of outside influences" which they said are small scratches on bottom the oil pan - I told them I dont think they can "void" a saftey recall -- I next called kia corporate office and opened a case -#16315441 - supervisor named 'richard"of customer care told me on recorded call that kia corportae made agrees with the decision not to replace my oil pan due to the scratches at the bottom of my pan that are no where near the main seal. Did kia violate any federal law by acknowledging the leak at the main seal and denying to replace the oil pan and returning the vehicle to me with a known safety defect - recall - sc174 does not mention any exemptions for the recall such as age, damage , negligence etc.

Tl the contact owns a 2011 kia Sportage. While driving various speeds, the vehicle suddenly stalled. The contact discovered oil leaking under the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to american eagle auto (820 us highway 1 n, woodbridge, NJ) where it was diagnosed that the engine oil pan was faulty and needed to be replaced. The oil pan was replaced, but the failure recurred approximately three months later. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The VIN was not available. The failure mileage was 100,000. The VIN was unknown.

I have an oil pan leak that is referred to in the interim notice sent to me ( NHTSA recall # 19v101 )that the dealer doesnt have the recall listed in there system yet & cannot fix my vehicle at no charge. I need vehicle to be serviced before it does major damage to my engine how do I proceed to get this done per the recall?.

Kia has recalled some of the 2011-2012 kia Sportage line due to an oil pan leakage issue. My 2011 kia Sportage suffers from an oil pan leak, as reported to me by my oil change shop, but was not included in the recall when I view the VIN report.
