Complete engine failure - 11-5-18 - all lights came on and car died in the middle of a turn. All oil was gone from engine. Car cannot even be manually cranked. Seems to be exact same issue discovered with same year 1.6L engines, but wasn't included in recall as a 2.0L engine for whatever reason. 3 mechanics have quoted me a $10K repair including an entire new engine. No salvage or used engines available anywhere.

The lights in my Kia Souls interior and exterior are flickering and going out completely sometimes. Very unsafe when I am already driving. Happens to my headlights and dash lights and interior roof lighting. It has also caused my lights to stay on sometimes and causes my battery to die. This has happened while the car is idle or driving or off completely when the doors are open.

Cruise control randomly cut off. Then ESC and ABS lights come on and disables anti-lock brakes system and stability control. Best guess faulty brake switch.
