2022 Kia Sportage

Oil consumption. My car was running fine on 04/11/2023 and then at the end of the day, it started sputtering. I was approaching my oil change date so I took the car in to get an oil change. The sputtering did not stop and the car kept stopping and the service engine light came on, so I had it towed to the nearest Kia dealership. They stated there was no oil in the car even though I had the oil changed the day before and only drove it home, less than five miles. Kia is refusing to honor the warranty because I used our friend, who is a licensed auto technician, to complete prior oil changes and because Take 5, who completed the oil change on 04/11/2023, put the mileage incorrectly on the invoice. We got regular oil changes on the car so I don't know why the engine would fail.

Was traveling northbound on I5 between Lacey and Dupont, Washington. Vehicle was in cruise at 65, then it suddenly went into limp mode. I was in the furthest right lane possible on the highway, and RPMs drastically dropped to below 1,000. I was able to get the vehicle pulled over to the right shoulder safely while the vehicle dropped to approximately 10mph on the freeway. The vehicle died as soon it was placed in park. When attempting to turn the vehicle on, all engine light warnings displayed (this was not present when the vehicle went into limp mode) and would not start. I checked for oil levels, which showed they were only slightly low. No leaks in engine compartment and no leaks underneath the vehicle. Vehicle would attempt to start after the 5th consecutive attempt, and began knocking. RPMs would not exceed 1,500RPMs with the gas pedal compressed. Towed to KIA, KIA rejecting warranty. Vehicle is a 2022 Kia Sportage EX, only 60,000 miles on it. Still waiting on official denial letter, but this issue was prevalent in previous models of Sportage vehicles from KIA. I'm thankful I was able to maneuver safely to the shoulder of a busy highway during dark hours, I could have been killed if a vehicle hit me from behind with how suddenly the vehicle's speed dropped, almost coming to a complete stop.

The car turns off while driving. This is happened four times the first time. Kia told me in Berkeley nothing was wrong. The car started back up bring it back. If it happens again it happened again. They have had the car for over a month. The car will not start. It has not been looked at and told me that there’s other cars it’s been there for over a month. I wouldn’t be so mad my daughters on Chemo I have to have a car that’s reliable to get her there and a dealership that cares this is scary could’ve killed us.

My vehicle starting shaking while idling, check engine light came on. Turned car off and went to restart with push button start vehicle just kept cranking for a min and wouldn’t start, stopped it and tried again after a min of cranking it started, went to drive had no pick up speed, ROM’s where all over the place. Transmission feels funny while driving like the car doesn’t want to go or shift gears. Electrical components in vehicle touch screen LCDscreen goes black and can’t get it to go back on, turn car off and still doesn’t come back on, forward collision goes off when nothing around and starts braking, warning light for back passenger tail light goes on and tail light works fine. Tried to get into the dealer but they have no loaner vehicles or appts for a couple weeks.

I was driving at 65 mph highway speed heading east on Colorado highway 36 when my Sunroof exploded. I pulled off the highway on to the shoulder of the road and looked to see that the sunroof glass on my vehicle had shattered in an upward displacement. Literally looked like the glass was pushed up from the inside. Dry pavement no sign of rocks. This vehicle has 4200 miles on it and this current occurrence comes after a similar shattering of one of my side panel windows after I entered the vehicle in April 2022 and closed the vehicle door. I have purchased multiple vehicles and Kia replaced that window under warranty.

The glass between the windshield and sunroof shattered it looks like it exploded from the inside. There are three lines going across ans then mini shattering inside. I was not in any accident and the vehicle was not hit by any flying objects or debris. There are similar accounts of this happening to other Kia vehicles, for some reason the tempered glass is cracking either heat or cold not sure. There is no impact point on the vehicle to say it was hot by a rock or anything just tiny shattered glass. Kia is not trying to remedy the issue at all.
