Consumer Description
I have owned this vehicle for two years and last week the engine started making a load noise after some research I found a safety recall from 2017 that Kia made an error in the machining process of the engine and could cause catastrophic damage and a major safety issue if happened while driving. This vehicle has been at the local Kia dealer and they refuse to do anything about the issue.
