Engine make noise and not running well
Traveling on highway when heard engine noise and then immediately engine seized, car stopped running altogether and was able to drift to side of road. towed to closest kia dealer who says engine must be replaced at a cost of $16 thousand!!! kelly bluebook worth of vehicle is approx. $8,000. recall for this same problem doesn't seem to extend beyond 2014 engines although there are numerous documented customer complaints of same problem in later year kia's. help!
While driving on the interstate my suv loose excelarate and engines light and oil pan light came on i pulled over and engine shut down try turning suv over and it did not turn over i had it towed and machanic said the engine is freeze up.
After last oil change aprox. 3 months ago. no issues until last week when suv would sound like it's accelerating really fast but not going very fast. on startup i kept hearing a squealing and grinding sound. one day out driving without any warning lights or anything my car seems to loose power if i took my foot off gas. took it to mechanic who said the engine needs to be replaced. when using the machine to read codes it read p0014 and p0024 (camshaft positioning sensors) was told to check wires and sensors didn't seem to be the ultimate problem. during it's last visit to the mechanic it drained out 2 quarts of oil but no oil had been leaking anywhere. crude was inside the oil check tube.
2015 kia sorento awd engine seized. i was driving and without and warning the car shut down and wont start. i found out this is not new. now i have to find out how to continue to take care of my wife and kids without a car. i've seen so many complaints about the engine i have and there has been no investigation and this is a dangerous situation recalls for the same thing have been sent out but not for the 2015 kia sorento. i really hope some one does something about this. i was on a busy road slowing down for a red light and car shut off almost hitting the car in front of me. again no warnings. i also smelled smoke like wires burning.
Vehicle has 85,940 miles on it and has a blown head gasket. i bought it in april and it has run fine. took the vehicle in for a routine oil change and the technician noticed coolant leaking from the engine block by the connection point with the head gasket cover on the driver's side of the engine. this is not expected from a ~4 year old vehicle with < 100,000 miles that's only driven about 10 miles a day m-f on roads with speed limits below 45 and very little traffic.
Bought my kia sorento about a year and a half ago. it had about 64,000 miles on it. it now has 87,000. we noticed heavy oil consumption within a few months of owning it. no oil leaks exist. at first it would need about a quart or so between oil changes, but continued to get worse because now we need almost 3 between oil changes. oil light began flickering on and off intermittently on the highway heading home followed shortly after by a check engine light. i stopped and checked the stick to find that it's essentially dry. i buy the recommended oil at the gas station i'm at and add it. just before finally arriving home the engine back to sputter and lose power accompanied by a tapping noise. another crappy kia engine that didn't even make it to 100,000. they better fix this.
I was driving the car and then it slowed down to 40 mph and cut off on the highway. i cranked it back up and it made a weird noise. i called a tow truck. took it to the shop and they said the engine needs to be repaired. there is no way that it should be having motor issues. the oil has always been changed on time. also i have to change the headlight bulbs on the left and right
The engine light came on and the car turned off while we were driving. we were on the hwy. when it did start it would accelerate and then decrease in speed on its own. we tried to find the code but it didn't register any thing wrong.
2015 sorento engine died on me twice in one day, once while driving down the highway after applying the brakes after the person in front of me was breaking and the other time after i turned onto my street. i had to pull over both times and restart the car. it's never done this until today 9-26-19. i could have been killed due to the engine dying on me while driving. apparently this has happened to many people with this vehicle and a recall needs to be done.
Blown head gasket and cracked engine block. we noticed a smell of burning antifreeze when we parked and got out of the car. took it to the dealership and they said the head gasket was blown and the engine block was cracked and needed to be replaced.
I was accelerating on to a on ramp to interstate 405 when he engine light started to blink and car losing power at the same time. the car also proceeded to make an engine knocking noise and i exited the highway to get off and got it towed . the car has 51, 800 miles and i am original owe we and have had regular oil changes and maintenance .
Car started making knocking noises from engine and got louder as my husband accelerated. car then hesitated to accelerated and eventually stalled. this is dangerous!
I was traveling at approximately 50 mph, i accelerated to pass a car in front of me and when i came around the car, about 60 mph, the engine stalled and all of the warning lights on the dash came on. the engine lost all power, even though the air and all other functions on the car continued to function. i pulled to the side of a very busy highway when this happened, turned the key to the off position and tried to restart it, nothing happened. luckily someone i knew was driving by and stopped to help me. the first thing he did was check the oil and it was full, it wasn't due for an oil change for another 200 miles. there was no indication of any type of problem with my car previous to this. regular maintenance was done and it is at 74,000 miles. i had the car towed to a repair shop near my home and as i feared, the motor was seized. i cannot believe that this is happening, i bought the car used with less than 70,000 miles on it less than 6 months ago. the main reason i purchased it was because ...
