On 11/10/2019 in N.C. the temp dropped down to 29 degrees the next morning I get up to start my car and the battery dragged so I had to get a boost. It ran all that day, then Sunday the same thing appened again I had to get a boost. I went to buy a battery and once the battery was taken out we noticed the positive side box (bottom) had melted onto the top of the battery, so my battery was damaged by the battery cable box.

Every time I hot a bump the rear end goes all over the place. Also at a speed of 40 to 50 mph the vehicle hesitate, for 10 to 15 seconds for no aparent reason. While I'm driving, especially going up a hill.

The fuel door will not open without assistance. Pulling the latch the first time will not open the fuel door. I must insert something such as a credit card, or try to pry the fuel door with my fingers, and then try the latch again before the fuel door will open. This problem has been occurring for more than 12 months.

There were some parts recalled, which I has replaced at 20,000 miles. At 23,000 miles on a trip the engine light came on and the engine began to sputter as if not getting enough gas or as if the timing was off. This issue happens intermittently, even after returning car to dealership for 4 days after which they couldn't find a problem. While out of town on a trip the engine light and sputtering continues. I have always brought my car to the dealership every 5,000 miles of oil change/maintenance. Now at 24,400 miles I'm hesitant about driving a car I purchased brand new.

Vehicle was in motion, smelled something "off", within seconds engine burst into flames. Entire vehicle gutted. Kia literally just installed a new engine, starter, battery, and intake 2 days prior due to engine locking up - with 22000 miles.

The car was involved in an accident and the insurance company informed the lienholder that the vehicle was possibly a total loss and the lienholder ignored them and sold the vehicle to a public auction without contacting the original owner of the car to pay on the vehicle either. The owner of the car was injured in the vehicle in question as well as a passenger and the lienholder is aware and still sold without proper notice and they changed the locks of the vehicle to prevent the insurance company from doing a proper inspection of the vehicle. The vehicle cannot be driven on a highway and shakes at 30 miles at an in less than 10 mins. The vehicle also operates on its own. The lienholder had been aware of the issue since April 2018. Less than 2 weeks after the accident.

The autonomous emergency braking (aeb) and forward collision warning (fcw) systems on my vehicle never activate when traffic situations are obvious for the aeb and fcw to activate. Even home-spun system tests don't show the systems to be operational. The local Kia dealership and repair center cannot validate the system's integrity because they cannot accomplish definitive tests to verify the system. They say "we don't know." This is a safety issue that must be resolved. This issue is ongoing.

My 2017 Kia Forte S has forward collision warning system (fcws) and autonomous emergency braking system. The fcws does not work in that it does not warn me of impending collision hazzards. I have no idea if the aebs works as the fcws triggers that system. Kia techs have not shown me that it works; I.e. warning audible nor warning image on lcd display. I have tried running up on a car in front of me until about 10 feet back at 50-60 mph with no warning then I manually applied the brakes.
