This is the 2nd engine replacement I have had to do in a 2013 car. Driving 60mph without warning car stalled and I was forced to coax to the side of rural country road, in the middle of extreme cold weather the 2nd time. The 1st time I was driving the car abfter just getting oil changed and car made a loud noise and car stalled while driving on interstate at 70mph. Car was towed and engine was blown each time. I have contacted Kia on both occasions and on both occasions car was sent to dealership and could not figure out why engine blew. Oil levels where found good. This is ridiculous that I have had two replace 2 engines in a 2013 Kia which is financed and Kia refuses to do anything about it. I have receipts as well as reports done on car each time this occurred. However they are in glovebox of car at garage getting a new engine!
Was driving on the car on the turnpike, set the cruise control for 65 mph. Cruise stayed on for a few minutes, shut off automatically and began to decelerate. Attempted to accelerate by depressing the gas pedal. Car did not accelerate, although rpms did increase. Had to pull over to the side of the road, turn the car off and restart. Drove remainder of distance w/O cruise control. Car has had this same issue intermittently. Have had to the dealership twice. Car has been analyzed by the computer with no issue found. Both times they have released the car since they were unable to replicate the issue.
