NHTSA Complaint #11315739 — 2014 KIA SORENTO

JANUARY 10, 2020 HAD THE RECALLS ON MY CAR CHECKED. NOTHING WAS WRONG. WHILE DRIVING HOME FEBRUARY 28, 2020, MY CAR STARTED TO MAKE A HORRIBLE KNOCKING NOISE. I WAS ONLY ABOUT 2 MILES FROM HOME. PULLED IN AND TURNED CAR OFF. CONTACT KIA WAS TOLD TO BRING CAR IN THE NEXT MORNING THAT THERE WAS A LIFETIME WARRANTY ON THE MOTOR. START THE CAR AND DRIVE 2 MILES, THE CHECK ENGINE LIKE STARTED BLINKING, OIL PRESSURE LIGHT CAME ON, CAR DIED AND NEVER HAS STARTED BACK. ASKED THE KIA DEALER IF THEY WERE ABLE TO PROVIDE ME WITH A LOANER CAR AND WAS TOLD NO. FIRST I WAS OUT A $300 TOWING BILL BECAUSE THEY NEVER EVER CHECKED OUT THE ENGINE RECALL, AND NOW I AM OUT ANOTHER $300 ON A RENTAL.
