NHTSA Complaint #11245602 — 2014 KIA SOUL

I GOT A 2014 KIA SOUL IN JUNE OF 2018 . THE VEHICLE WAS OK UNTIL JULY 2019. I NOTICED THAT I WAS ALWAYS VERY LOW ON OIL AND I WAS VERY MUCH ON TOP OF MY OIL CHANGES. I WOULD HAVE TO PUT AT LEAST 3 QUARTS OF OIL IN THE CAR EVERY 3 WEEKS. THE DAY BEFORE I BROKE DOWN MY OIL LIGHT CAME ON SO I PUT A QUART OF OIL IN IT. NEXT DAY (THE DAY I BROKE DOWN)WHILE I WAS DRIVING BACK FROM DROPPING OFF A BANK DEPOSIT FOR MY JOB, THE VEHICLE STARTED TO 'JERK'. THE STREET I WAS DRIVING ON IS PRETTY BUSY 45MPH. I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER AND NOTICED MY OIL LIGHT WAS FLASHING. BECAUSE OF THIS HAPPENING MY MANAGER HAD TO COME AND FOLLOW BEHIND ME TO PARK IT BACK AT THE JOB. WHILE DRIVING THERE WAS A HUGE KNOCKING NOISE THAT GOT WORST WHEN I TRIED TO ACCELERATE. BECAUSE OF THIS HAPPENING I WAS OUT OF A CAR FOR OVER TWO WEEKS BECAUSE THE DEALERSHIP WAS PACKED AND LOST WAGES. MY MAJOR CONCERN IS HAVING CHILDREN AS WELL.
