Consumer Description
Around January of last year, with no warning at all, no lights on the dash. Suddenly while driving on my way home (luckily I had just gotten off the highway) my van started making a knocking noise and I decided I was going to try and pull over safely once I heard the noise, when all of a sudden the engine just stops. There was no power at all, I barely got out of the way of other traffic as there was no shoulder on this street. This was very scary and I had my child in the car. I took my car to the Kia dealer and even though my car only had about 90k miles on it and was taken care of very well, they refused to replace the engine. I paid 8k to have an engine placed because I still owe the bank money on this car. So many people are having issue with Kia and its not right that they wont help.
