2014 Kia Sportage Other Problems

Your engine suddenly locked up and stopped completely while driving at highway speed with no warning signs beforehand, even though you'd noticed the car was burning oil frequently. You learned later that this problem was part of a recall, but you say you weren't notified about it until 2022, well after the failure happened. The engine repair will cost over $8,000, and Kia has refused to help cover the cost. A complete engine rebuild or replacement will likely be needed to fix this issue.

I personally DONT know what happened with the car the engine light came on and the car started to pull harder to the right side causing the steering to become unbearable thankfully by god I was able to control it and no one nor myself got hurt. And also in the process the engine started too idle low and take time to accelerate and I just recently took the car to mieneke to get it checked out. I out my all into this car and I have no choice but to drive it as I need it and have responsibilities but I’m just asking for a little help as I travel for work and need a very very reliable and dependable car and I thought the Kia would be it and do it for me but after all this I’m am feared and cautious but as said I have responsibilities that will not wait so I have to work and I have to get a way there and for now this is all I have! Please help me!

My car shakes when I drive it. I feel like something is wrong with engine or fuel pumping system again.

The contact's wife owns a 2014 Kia Sportage. The contact stated that while his wife was driving 65 MPH, the vehicle shut-off with the check engine warning light illuminated. His wife coasted the vehicle to the shoulder of the highway and after restarting the vehicle, the vehicle stalled while depressing the accelerator pedal. The contact was called to the scene and was unable to restart the vehicle. Due to the failure, the vehicle was towed to a dealer where they diagnosed the vehicle with engine failure. Upon investigation, the contact linked the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 18V907000 (Fuel System, Gasoline, Engine). The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 79,000.

I WAS DRIVING ON THEN HIGHWAY AND MY PANORAMIC SUNROOF EXPLODED. AT FIRST, I HEARD A LOUD 'BANG' AND I WAS IMMEDIATELY TENSE...I THOUGHT I GOT REAR ENDED, THEN MAYBE MY TIRE BLEW OUT?! I PROCEEDED TO HEAR THE TINKLING AND SHATTERING OF GLASS. I PULLED OVER ONCE I REALIZED IT WAS THE SUNROOF. THE SUNROOF WAS NOT OPEN, SO THANKFULLY THE GLASS DID NOT FALL IN ON ME. THERE WAS NO ROCK OR ANY OBJECT THAT I COULD SEE WOULD HAVE CAUSED THIS. I WAS ALONE. I WASN'T HURT. NO ONE STOPPED. I THEN DROVE IT STRAIGHT TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY PUT A COVER ON IT AND TOLD ME TO CALL MY INSURANCE. IT IS CURRENTLY AT A BODY SHOP.

MY 2014 KIA SPORTAGE IS DYING AT RANDOM TIMES. IT HAS DONE IT ON MANY OCCASIONS, WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, STOPPED AT STOP SIGNS AND STOP LIGHTS, DROPPING MY SON OFF AT SCHOOL,PULLING OUT OF THE STORE, ECT. I NEVER KNOW WHEN IT IS GOING TO HAPPEN. IT HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP MANY TIMES BUT THERE IS NOTHING THAT CAN BE FOUND WRONG. NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT OR ANYTHING. I HAVE REPLACE THE BATTERY AND SPENT A LOT OF MONEY TO TRY AND FIND WHAT IS WRONG BUT NO ONE CAN SEEM TO FIND A REASON FOR THIS TO BE HAPPENING. I HAVE TWO YOUNG CHILDREN AND CAN NOT AFFORD A NEW RIG OR CAR HIGHER CAR PAYMENT AND I AM SCARED TO HAVE MY CHILDREN IN MY CAR TO GO ANYWHERE IN FEAR MY CAR IS GOING TO DIE WELL DRIVING AT HIGHER SPEEDS. I DONT EVEN CHANCE LEAVING TOWN. THE STEERING WHEEL AND POWER BRAKE START TO LOCK WHEN IT DIES WHEN YOUR ON THE ROAD.

MY KIA WAS PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY AND ON 21 JUNE 2018 AT APPROXIMATELY 10 PM.A LOUD POP LIKE NOISE WAS HEARD FROM OUTSIDE. ON INVESTIGATION WE FOUND HUNDREDS OF GLASS SHARDS AT THE BACK OF THE CAR WHERE THE REAR GLASS HAD SPONTANEOUSLY SHATTERED.

ON 8/26/17 MY KIA WAS IN THE DRIVEWAY PARKED THE TEMPERATURE OUTSIDE WAS 69 DEGREES SO IT WASN'T A HOT DAY ALL OF A SUDDEN THERE WAS A LOUD BOOM, SOUNDED LIKE SOMETHING EXPLODED OR A BOMB WENT OFF THERE WAS NOTHING THAT HIT THE SUNROOF IT JUST EXPLODED FOR NO REASON, THANK GOODNESS I WAS NOT DRIVING, I COULD HAVE HURT SOMEONE ON THE ROAD FROM THE SOUND I WOULD HAVE PANICKED HAD I HAVE BEEN DRIVING.

MY SUV IS 2YRS OLD AND THE COMPRESSOR BLEW OUT. I HAVE HAD IT DIAGNOSED BY ONE OF WEST SIDE KIA. I'M NOT UNDERSTANDING WHY KIA AMERICA MOTORS IS COVER UP WHAT CAUSE THIS PROBLEM .
