2017 KIA SOUL Engine Problems

GOT THE OIL CHANGED IN OCTOBER. WAS HEADING HOME ON THE HIGHWAY & WAS GOING UP A HILL THEN THE CAR STARTED ACTING UP. LOOKED BACK IN THE REAR VIEW MIRROR & SAW SMOKE. PULLED OVER ON THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY TO LOOK TO SEE WHAT HAPPENED & OIL WAS EVERYWHERE. LOOKED UNDERNEATH THE CAR AFTER IT COOLED OFF & THE WAS A HOLE IN THE MOTOR. A ROD SHOT THROUGH. THE CAR HAS 97,000 MILES ON IT. I'VE READ OTHER REVIEWS ABOUT KIA SOULS HAVING RECALLS WITH THE ENGINES & IF I WOULD OF KNOWN THAT WE WOULDN'T OF BOUGHT A KIA SOUL BECAUSE OUR DEALER DOESN'T WANT TO HELP US FIX IT.

LOW OIL PRESSURE INDICATION ALERTED WHILE DRIVING. HAD MY VEHICLE TOWED FOR AN EVALUATION. OIL WAS FULL BUT ENGINE FAILURE WAS DETECTED. NO WARNING WHATSOEVER. NO KNOCKING OR STALLING OF ENGINE. CAR STILL RUNS BUT I WILL NOT DRIVE THE VEHICLE IN FEAR OF CATASTROPHIC CONSEQUENCES. NOW OUT OF A CAR AND STILL OWE $8500 ON THE LOAN. 82,000 MILES ON CAR. OUT OF WARRANTY BECAUSE I'M THE SECOND OWNER. KIA SERVICE CENTER REPS LAUGHED AT ME. INFURIATING SITUATION. WAS TOLD MY OPTIONS WERE 'FIX IT OR DON'T' THANKS KIA.

IT WAS TIME FOR MY SECOND 5000 MILE OIL CHANGE ON AN ENGINE REPLACED IN JULY 2020. I GO IN, AND THEY TELL ME I NEED A DIAGNOSTIC DUE TO OIL ALL OVER THE UNDER CARRIAGE. I REFUSE BECAUSE THIS ENGINE HAS A WARRANTY AND IS 6 MOS. OLD. THEY CHANGE THE OIL, INJECT DYE INTO IT AND TELL ME TO COME BACK IN 500 MILES. I GO BACK ON TUESDAY AND THEY TELL ME THE CRANKSHAFT SENSOR IS DRY ROTTED AND LEAKING OIL AND IT WILL BE 400.00. WHY WAS IT NOT CHANGED? I STILL TO THIS DAY HAVE NEVER HAD A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT OR LOW OIL LIGHT COME ON. WHY WON'T KIA STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCTS? WHY WON'T YOU DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT?

WHEN CRANKING MY VEHICLE ON MONDAY EVENING, 12/14, APPROXIMATELY 40 DEGREES OUTSIDE, I NOTICED A NOISE AFTER INITIAL STARTUP THAT SOUNDS LIKE WHEN YOU PUT A CARD OR A SODA CAN ON THE TIRE OF YOUR BIKE. THE NOISE DIDN'T CONTINUE SO I DROVE IT HOME, APPROXIMATELY 17 MILES FROM WHERE IT WAS PARKED INITIALLY. I DIDN'T HEAR IT ON THE DRIVE HOME, UNTIL I ROLLED DOWN MY WINDOW SLIGHTLY AS I CAME TO A STOP LIGHT, AND IT WAS MAKING THE SAME TICKING NOISE, BUT MUCH LOUDER, AND ESPECIALLY WHEN I BEGAN TO ACCELERATE. I IMMEDIATELY CALLED MY FIANCE, AND WHEN I PULLED INTO THE DRIVEWAY HE IMMEDIATELY REQUESTED I TURN OFF THE VEHICLE. PULLED THE OIL STICK, AND NOTED THAT IT WAS ALMOST BONE DRY. WHICH IS CRAZY BECAUSE WE PERFORM ROUTINE MAINTENANCE ON MY CAR, AS IT'S THE DAILY DRIVER FOR MY 7 YEAR OLD AND MYSELF....

I WAS TOLD THE CLICKING SOUND IN THE ENGINE WAS NORMAL FOR MY CAR. I BROUGHT IT IN 1 YR AND 9 MONTHS LATER BECAUSE MECHANIC SAID IT IS NOT NORMAL. THEY DIAGNOSED MY CAR , SAID I NEEDED A WHOLE NEW ENGINE

WHILE DRIVING I HEAR A POPPING SOUND -- THINKING THAT I ROLLED OVER SOMETHING WITH MY TIRE BUT THAT'S NOT IT THEN MY CAR STARTS SMOKING IN THE FRONT AND MY WINDSHIELD GETS FOGGED UP I USE THE DEFROSTER TO TRY TO CLEAR MY WINDOW BUT THE SMOKE KEEPS COMING UP FROM THE FRONT . THIS HAPPENS ANYTIME DRIVING, PARKING, HIGHWAY, CITY STREETS OR JUST SITTING AT A LIGHT AND I PARK IN THE GARAGE I DON'T PARK ON THE STREET. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS I ALREADY HAD THE PURGE VALVE REPLACED.

WHILE AT WORK, DRIVING, AND IN ACCELERATION, THE ENGINE WOULD START KNOCKING. ON MY WAY HOME, THE KNOCKING GOT LOUDER. HALF WAY HOME, THE ENGINE STALLED OUT ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY AND I HAD TO COAST THE VEHICLE THROUGH EN EXIT RAMP TO STOP ON A SERVICE ROAD. FLUID WAS FOUND LEAKING FROM UNDER THE VEHICLE. HAVING PUT THE VEHICLE IN A SERVICE SHOP, THE MECHANIC ADVISED THAT THE ROD BLEW A HOLE STRAIGHT THROUGH THE ENGINE BLOCK. SAID IT WAS MORE LIKELY FROM THE ENGINE OVERHEATING, BUT WOULD NOT BE OFFICIALLY CERTAIN. MECHANIC LATER PULLED ME ASIDE AND INFORMED ME THAT KIA HAD BEEN HAVING MAJOR PROBLEMS WITH THEIR ENGINES BLOWING. HE ALSO ADVISED ME THERE WAS A RECALL SITUATION GOING ON, BUT COULDN'T BE CERTAIN WHETHER MY VEHICLE WAS OR WOULD BE INCLUDED IN THAT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 KIA SOUL. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ENGINE VIBRATED, ABNORMALLY, MISFIRED WHILE IDLING DUE TO A LOSS OF COMPRESSION AND COMBUSTION. THE CONTACT PERFORMED A DIAGNOSTIC TEST ON THE VEHICLE AND RETRIEVED TROUBLE CODE: P0242 (CATALYST LOW EFFICIENCY BELOW EFFICIENCY). THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO KIA OF EAST SYRACUSE (6717 MANILUS CENTER ROAD, EAST SYRACUSE, NY 13057, (315)701-5898) TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WAS LOSS OF COMPRESSION ON CYLINDER #3. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 19V120000 (ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING). THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 120,000.

MY SON BOUGHT A 2017 KIA SOUL LESS THAN A YEAR AGO WITH ABOUT 57,000 MILES. ON TUESDAY OCT 11, 2020 THE CAR KEPT STALLING WHEN DRIVING AND THEN WOULDN'T START. ALSO, THE OIL PRESSURE LIGHT KEPT FLASHING SO HE CHECKED THE OIL. HE HAD THE OIL PREVIOUSLY CHANGED ON AUG 29, 2020. THE DIPSTICK CAME UP EMPTY. HE ADDED OIL AND WHEN HE DROVE IT TO FIRESTONE AUTO REPAIR SHOP, THE OIL LIGHT FLASHED EVERY TIME THE CAR STOPPED AT A LIGHT. FIRESTONE FIRST SAID NOTHING WAS WRONG. HE LEFT THERE ONLY TO FIND IT DOING THE SAME THING. IT STALLED WHEN HE WAS MAKING A TURN ONTO A BUSY ROAD. HE TOOK IT BACK TO FIRESTONE WHERE THE DIAGNOSTIC FINALLY SAID IT WAS A BAD OIL PUMP. THEY SUGGESTED TO HIM TO TAKE IT TO KIA BECAUSE IT WOULD NEED A NEW ENGINE. FORD/KIA SAID THE ENGINE IS...

MY 2017 KIA SHOWED NO SIGNS OF PROBLEMS UNTIL I WAS DRIVING TO STORE ON STATE ROAD 9 GOING 40 MPH AND WHILE IN DRIVE IN DIED OUT ON ME. I TURNED THE KEY OVER A FEW TIMES. IT FINALLY CAUGHT AND STARTED. I CONTINUED HOME AND IT DID THIS AGAIN. ONLY THE OIL LIGHT CAME ON. I GOT IT STARTED AND MOVED OFF THE ROAD AND HAD IT TOWED TO MY MOTHERS. WHEN I TRIED TO START IT AGAIN IT WOULDNT START. MY STEP FATHER LOOKED AT IT AND THE PISTON HAD FLOWN IT TO THE SPARK PLUG. AND I WAS TOLD MY MOTER WAS BLOWN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 KIA SOUL. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, THE ENGINE JERKED AND SHUTOFF. THE VEHICLE FAILED TO RESTART AFTER PULLING OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROADWAY. THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE MATT CASTRUCCI KIA DEALER LOCATED AT 3013 MALL PARK DR, DAYTON, OH 45459, WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ENGINE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 48,000.

SOMETHING IS KNOCKING OR TICKING IN THE MOTOR FEELS LIKE UNDER MY FEET OF DRIVERS FLOOR BOARD. HAVE KEPT REGULAR OIL CHANGES ND IT STARTED OFF BY SPITTING AND SPUTTERING WHEN I WOULD COME TO A STOP TO NOW TICKING. WENT TO START IT THE NEXT MORNING TO GO TOO WORK AND IT SOUNDED AWFUL SO I DIDNT DRIVE IT. NOW WHEN I START IT THE BATTERY LIGHT IS ON AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON AND IT WILL START FOR ABOUT 3 SEC AN SHUTS OFF.

I STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT AND MY CAR CUT OFF. I WOULD NOT CRANK BACK UP. THE. MECHANIC SAID THE TIMING CHAIN BROKE. MY CAR WILL NEED A NEW MOTOR. I HAVE ONLY 80,000 MILES. NEVER HAD ANY PROBLEM AND LOVED MY CAR.

I WAS WAITING IN THE DRIVE-THRU OF FAST FOOD RESTAURANT, WHEN MY OIL LIGHT STARTED TO FLICKER THEN CAME ON SOLID. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THE OIL LIGHT HAD EVER COME ON. I DROVE DIRECTLY ACROSS THE STREET TO A GAS STATION AND SHUT THE CAR OFF. I CHECKED THE OIL LEVEL, BUT NO OIL REGISTERED ON THE DIP STICK. I ADDED 2 QUARTS OF OIL, IT NOW REGISTERED ALMOST FULL AND DROVE IT HOME (APPROX. 1 MILE). WHEN I GOT HOME I NOTICED THE ENGINE WAS KNOCKING. THE NEXT DAY I CHANGED THE OIL ADDING ONE QUART OF LUCAS OIL ADDITIVE. THE KNOCKING DID NOT GO AWAY AND I NOW NOTICED STEAM COMING OUT OF MY TAIL PIPE WHEN I WAS LETTING THE ENGINE WARM UP. I LEFT MY CAR PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY FOR FEAR OF DOING FURTHER DAMAGE TO THE ENGINE. A FEW MONTHS LATER (WHEN...

TOOK OFF FROM STOP SIGN GOT UP TO 55 MPH AND ENGINE BLEW. NO WARNING LIGHTS. NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. NOTHING. IT JUST BLEW. OIL PRESSURE GAUGE WAS NORMAL. IT DIDN'T MAKE ANY KIND OF NOISE OR HESITATION. I WAS DRIVING ON A STATE HIGHWAY ON A STRAIGHT STRETCH OF ROAD AND WAS TRAVELING SLIGHTLY DOWNHILL WHEN IT BLEW. IT WAS 5:20 AM WHEN IT HAPPENED.

AT 91K MILES, THE ENGINE BLEW. AT 84K MILES THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER WAS CONDEMNED.

AND THERE MAIN THING IS I PUT 30.000. MILES ON IT. I HAVE KIDS. I TRAVEL. KEPT UP ON OIL CHANGES EVERYTHING

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 KIA SOUL. THE CONTACT STATED THE VEHICLE FAILED TO START ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TWICE TO GARDEN GROVE KIA LOCATED AT 13731 HARBOR BLVD, GARDEN GROVE, CA 92843, (888) 992-1833, WHERE THE MECHANICS WERE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE WAS INTERMITTENT. THE MANUFACTURER HAD BEEN INFORMED OF FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE APPROXIMATELY WAS 93,705.

MILEAGE 75,000 AND THE ENGINE THREW A ROD THROUGH THE BOTTOM OF THE ENGINE BLOCK AND THROUGH THE OIL PAN. I PURCHASED THE CAR WITH ABOUT 22,000 MILES. I'VE DRIVEN THE CAR LESS THAN 2 YEARS AND HAVE PUT ABOUT 50,000 MILES ON IT. I HAVE MAINTAINED THE VEHICLE ACCORDING TO MANUFACTURER SPECIFICATIONS WITH REGULAR OIL CHANGES EVERY 5000 MILES. I HAVE NEVER HAD THE CHECK ENGINE OR OIL LIGHTS COME ON SINCE I'VE OWNED THE VEHICLE. WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE ABOUT 80 MPH WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL ON, THE CAR STRUGGLED AND FELT LIKE IT WAS GOING TO STALL OUT, LIKE IT WASN'T GETTING GAS OR THE ALTERNATOR WAS FAILING. THE CHECK ENGINE AND OIL LIGHT CAME ON AND SMOKE WAS BILLOWING FROM UNDER THE HOOD. I HAD TO DRIVE FOR ABOUT HALF A MILE OR SO TO THE NEAREST EMERGENCY PULL OFF AND TURNED OFF THE CAR....

WHILE IN MOTION ON THE HIGHWAY I EXPERIENCE ENGINE FAILURE. I WAS TOLD THAT MY ENGINE THREW A ROD AND PUNCTURED A HOLE IN MY ENGINE.

ENGINE LOCKED, COULDN'T START

ENGINE- 2017 KIA SOUL 2.0 L 4-CYL. MILEAGE AT THE TIME OF PURCHASE 42,788. MILEAGE AT FAILURE WAS 89,144. USAGE PREDOMINATELY HWY MILES. AT THE TIME OF FAILURE, WE OWNED THE VEHICLE 19 MONTHS.

SHE COULD HAVE BEEN REAR-ENDED OR WHEN TURNING OFF THE ROADWAY WITH LOSS OF POWER T-BONED TRYING TO EXIT THE ROADWAY IN AN EMERGENCY. THERE IS NO BREAKDOWN LANE OR ENOUGH GROUND ON THE SIDE OF THE ROADWAY TO PULL OFF. ALL OF A SUDDEN, FOR NO REASON, THE ENGINE LOST POWER AND MADE A KNOCKING SOUND.

WHEN PLACED IN DRIVE, AND GAS PEDAL IS DEPRESSED THE CAR JERKS FORWARD AND BACK AND WILL NOT ACCELERATE. IT SHAKES THE WHOLE CAR.. DOES IT IF CAR IS COLD OR HOT BUT SEEMS TO HAPPEN MORE WHEN CAR IS NOT FULL HOT. UNSAFE WHEN PULLING INTO TRAFFIC.

AT 75K MILES THE ENGINE FAILED ON MY 2017 KIA SOUL. SPECIFICALLY, IT THREW A ROD. THE CAR WAS SOLD TO ME AS A CERTIFIED USED CAR, THAT BEING THE DEALER SAID THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR. I TOOK THE CAR INTO GOSSETT KIA IN MEMPHIS, WHERE I PURCHASED THE CAR FOR AN OIL CHANGE. I WAS CALLED LATER AND TOLD THE ENGINE WAS KNOCKING. THE SERVICE WRITER TOLD ME, "DO NOT WORRY ABOUT THIS. IT IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THE 2016 AMD 2017 KIA SOUL AND YOUR CAR IS UNDER WARRANTY." KIA TOLD ME THE CAR WAS NOT UNDER WARRANTY BECAUSE I CHOSE TO DRIVE FOR A RIDE SHARE COMPANY AND THAT VOIDED THE WARRANTY. THE PROBLEM IS THEY SOLD ME A CAR AS CERTIFIED WHEN THEY KNEW ABOUT THE ENGINE FAILURE ISSUE.

PURCHASED THIS CAR USED WITH 16K MILES IN SEPT 2018. STOPPED AT AN INTERSECTION AND WHEN TRYING TO PULL OUT THE ENGINE WOULD NOT RESPOND TO THE GAS PEDAL. ENGINE REMAINED AT AN IDLE EVEN AFTER FLOORING THE GAS PEDAL SEVERAL TIMES. ALMOST GOT HIT!! I RECYCLED THE KEY SEVERAL TIMES AND FINALLY IT WORKED. I TOOK TO THE DEALER AND GOT THE " NO PROBLEM FOUND " NOW I EXPERIENCE A ROUGH IDLE AND A STRANGE FEELING IN THE BRAKE PEDAL WHEN BRAKING. TODAY I STARTED THE CAR AND THE ENGINE WOULD NOT GO OVER 3000 RPMS. CYCLED THE KEY AND IT WAS OK. I'M AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS CAR FOR FEAR IT MAY KILL ME! PLEASE HELP.

I BEGAN TO HAVE PROBLEMS WITH MY ENGINE IN SEPTEMBER OF 2018, MY CAR WOULD JUST TURN OFF WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON THE STREETS. NOTE THAT WHEN I TOOK MY VEHICLE IN I ONLY HAD 29,800 MILES ON IT. I TOOK IT INTO A DEALERSHIP AND THEY REPLACED MY ENGINE IN WHICH I DID NOT GET MY VEHICLE BACK UNTIL JANUARY 2019. EVERY TIME I WOULD GET MY VEHICLE BACK THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WOULD BE ON, AND THE CAR WOULD DRIVE TERRIBLY. IN THE COURSE OF 4-5 MONTHS I HAD A BAD VEHICLE RETURNED TO ME 3 TIMES. I'VE HAD MY VEHICLE FOR A WEEK AND I STILL DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING IT AND WHEN I REACH THE SPEED LIMIT OF 40 MPH IT BEGINS TO SHAKE. LASTLY, WHEN I PRESS ON THE BREAKS I COULD FEEL THAT MY FOOT BEGINS TO TREMOR/SHAKE AS IF I'M IN...

MY ENGINE SHUT OFF WHILE I WAS STOPPED AT A RAILROAD CROSSING, ON AN INCLINE. I HAD MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE WHEN IT HAPPENED. ONCE THE TRAIN PASSED, I LET MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE, AND THE ENGINE SHUT OFF WITHOUT A WARNING OR INDICATION. THE CAR PROCEEDED TO ROLL BACKWARDS INTO TRAFFIC. I TURNED ON MY EMERGENCY LIGHTS ON, PUT THE CAR IN PARK, AND TRIED TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. IT TOOK A MINUTE OR SO BEFORE I WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE CAR. THE SAME PROBLEM HAPPENED 3 DAYS LATER - I WAS JUST ABOUT TO MAKE MY TURN OUT OF A PARKING LOT INTO A MAJOR STREET. I MADE A STOP TO MAKE SURE THE ROAD WAS CLEAR. I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE AND HIT THE ACCELERATOR AND THE ENGINE SHUT OFF. I HAD TO PUT MY CAR IN PARK TO RESTART THE ENGINE...

I PURCHASED MY 2017 KIA SOULS BASE MODEL ON JUN 28 THIS YEAR FROM QUIRK KIA IN BRAINTREE, MA. AFTER JUST 2 WEEKS THIS ISSUE HAPPENED FOR THE FIRST TIME. I WAS AT A GAS STATION GASSING UP THE CAR, ONCE I WAS DONE, I TURNED THE CAR ON, PUT IT IN DRIVE AND THE CAR WOULD NOT MOVE ' I WAS PRESSING THE GAS PEDAL AND NOTHING WAS HAPPENING. I IMMEDIATELY PUT THE SHIFTER IN PARK, TURNED THE ENGINE OFF AND ON AGAIN AND THE CAR STARTED TO MOVE AGAIN. ON JULY 26 SAME ISSUE HAPPENED AGAIN AND IT ALSO HAPPENED RIGHT AFTER I GASSED UP THE CAR. ON SEPTEMBER 15TH WHILE I WAS WORKING AS UBER DRIVER THIS ISSUE HAPPENED AGAIN, BUT THIS TIME WHILE I WAS DRIVING. I STOPPED AT RED LIGHT, AFTER FEW MINUTES I STARTED DRIVING BUT JUST AFTER 50-60 YARDS I COMPLETELY LOST ACCELERATION....
