NHTSA Complaint #11298489 — 2015 KIA OPTIMA

MY DAUGHTER'S CAR, KIA OPTIMA 2015, HAD BEEN BROUGHT IN FOR ENGINE REPAIR FOR IT DIED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FREEWAY A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO, SINCE THEN, SHE TELLS ME THAT SHE HAS BEEN ADDING 3 QUARTS OF OIL EVERY WEEK AND SOMETIMES SHE FINDS THE ENGINE EMPTY OF OIL FROM THE DIPSTICK. WHEN SHE CAME HOME, I MONITORED THE DRIVEWAY WHERE SHE PARKS TO LOOK FOR OIL LEAKAGE BUT I DIDN'T FIND ANY LEAKAGE OF OIL IN MY DRIVEWAY. MY DAUGHTER IS NOT SAFE IN THIS CAR, UNFORTUNATELY SHE USES THIS CARE TO GO TO SCHOOL AND WE DON'T HAVE THE CAPABILITY TO PURCHASE ANOTHER CAR. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS PROBLEM THAT KIA OPTIMA IS UNDERMINING AND OVERLOOKING. I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE REPORTING THIS ISSUE FROM WHAT I HAVE READ. FOR THE CONSUMERS, YOU ARE THE ONLY ONES WE CAN TURN TO IN TIMES LIKE THIS. I HOPE THAT YOU WOULD CONSIDER LOOKING INTO THIS PROBLEM BY KIA CORPORATION.
