problem #2

Sportage

  • 55,000 miles
There is a knocking noise coming from my engine. I also lose power when I turn corners or when I slow down and go again. The knocking noise is not very loud but I can hear with the windows down. I took the vehicle to Kia and they stated they couldnt replicate the issue. The engine was replaced for the same issue last year (2019).

Sportage

  • 85,000 miles
This vehicke was purchased new in March of 2014. I am the originalk owner. While making an out of town trip the vehicle had a lound knocking noise and lost power. I took the vehickle to an independent garage. The infomred me that the oil pump quit functioning and that caused the motor to throw a rod. When this occured the vehicle had 86,000 miles on it. Kia has a 10 year 100,000 mile warranty. Additionally, I purhcased an extended warranty froim the dealership that would cover the power train for 20 years and 200,000 miles. The vehicle has been delivered to a Kia delaership and so far I am hearing excuses on why they will not honor the warranty. This is despite the fact I have performed regualr oil changes with full synthetic oil since I purchased the vehicle.
