I own a 2014 Kia Sorento. There is an open recall that has been going on for a while with this car. I talked to my local Kia dealer months ago and they said they would put me on a waitlist to fix the recall because they didn't have the parts. Now it's been a few months and I'm still waiting. They say they still don't have the parts. Now it's leading to other problems with the engine and I eventually want to sell the car, but nothing can get done until this recall is fixed! because of the recall, my car is at risk of catching on fire so I can't park in my garage. It's unsafe having to wait months to get a recall like this fixed!

Every 500 miles I am adding a quart of oil to my 2014 Kia Sorento. Plus the oil light is not turning on when the dipstick is showing below low on oil. There are several online forums that have noted as many other Kia vehicles have had this issue: Sited references: Car gurus: Https://www.cargurus.com/cars/discussion-T57466_ds944098?sntemlid=5086909646#msg1125429 Kia forum: Https://www.Kia-forums.com/threads/2-4-oil-consumption.344078/ motor biscuit: Https://www.motorbiscuit.com/A-2016-Kia-Sorento-owner-experienced-an-expensive-problem-at-the-worst-time/ I have taken it in to a mechanic and they are not sure how to address the issue. I also brought it to medved Kia dealership in wheat ridge Colorado for an oil consumption test, I brought it in every 500 miles to check the oil consumption. After 3000 miles the oil was down a total 2.5 quarts. The dealership told us they contacted Kia headquarters and said there is nothing they can do until there is a engine failure, but our concern is if someone is unaware of the oil consumption (or if we forget to put oil in our car at 500 miles) issue and their engine seize on the highway this could put them and other vehicles on the highway in a potential dangerous or life threatening situation. Additionally, the user manual states (page 7 | 11) under normal conditions you should change your oil every 7500 miles, the vehicle take 5 quarts, so if we waited for the 7500 miles the engine would seize or explode. Kia has issued an extended warranty for engine defects and fires, but it does not detail the oil consumption issue, I think this should be looked into as many people are having the same issue.

When driving home I pulled into my neighborhood and started to smell slight gas, when I get to my house a pulled into the driveway smoke started coming from under the hood. In an attempt to open the hood I noticed flames coming from under the car. I called 911 and my friend went to get a fire extinguisher. The fire extinguisher did not work as the fire grew big and fast. When the fire department arrived the front of the car was completely on fire. No recent work has been done of the car besides regular oil changes. The car was driving perfectly fine and no warning lights or weird noises before it caught fire.

Engine light comes on not the oil light when it's time to fill. Once I have oil change it goes off out the next day. My engine light currently remains on and I smell a burning from my engine and my vehicle drives as if something is wrong with the engine or it struggles to change over.I've been having this problem for a few months now with my engine smelling as if it's burning.

There have been at least two times when service for scheduled oil change was due and the shop said the engine had almost no oil. I took the car to the same shop on a different occasion after hearing rattling noises around the motor while driving and the same answer was given about very low on oil level. This week the car stalled while one of my kids was driving and I picked them up where they were located. I assumed it was the battery but after aaa towing came they showed me the battery had full charge and pulled the oil dip stick and showed me no oil marking. The car is a 2014 SUV with 155,950 miles. There were no service engine lights or any kind of indicators warning that oil was low or completely dried out. The car does not turn and is at the shop. The shop previously did some costly work as they repaired an oil leak but that has been about 1 year to 1.5 years ago and I've not noticed any leakage. I can provide receipts if needed. This should not be happening.

Hello, problems with the headlights of Kia Sorento 2014, these are very dim and in the dark you can see little or nothing and this can cause a big accident on the road.

Engine started knocking and lost some power darning driving. The check engine light came on. This is the 3.3L gdi engine. This engine is not part of the SC147 recall. I take good care of my cars. I believe the issue I'm having is due to a defect in the manufacturing process. We have a 2012 Hyundai sonata that was covered under a different recall. It initially passed the recall test. The engine failed later with the same symptoms I'm having with the 2014 Kia. Something is not right.

Hello, I am writing here since I did not receive for online access. My situation is related to my 2014 Kia ​​'Sorento vehicle, VIN # [xxx] it is presenting failure indicators related to 4 recalls reported by the federal department of transportation to correct whether it is replaced or repaired. I contacted Kia de aguadilla puerto rico presenting the situation, they indicated that the vehicle was inspected for 2014 and that at that time it did not present any type of problems and that by the VIN #. my vehicle is obviously one of the units referred to by the recall and according to the information the vehicle that meets the specifications of the make, model and year must be inspected by certified Kia mechanics. In the telephone conversation they indicated that the cost of the inspection starts at $ 65 depending on the type of problem. I had a conversation with another Kia representative from kennedy explaining my situation with Kia from aguadilla, being specific that the recall clearly indicates that in both 1 and 4 recalls, life can be at stake without the parts not being corrected in time. This and the previous messages related to my situation remain in record for when an accident occurs that involves both my family and third parties. I hope you can help me in this situation. Thank you. [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
