My 2021 Kia Seltos S was not a part of the original recall on Seltos & Soul vehicles. My check engine light came on and now my car has been at the dealership for 3 weeks waiting for a new engine. The front collision will randomly activate when there are NO other cars around. It applies the brakes when you are driving at speed on the highway. Luckily no cars were behind me. My seat belt has also malfunctioned. I connect it and the warning light keeps beeping & flashing even after I try repeating the process. This KIA is a keyed Kia. And although Kia has recently created an Anti-theft software update, that comes about 14 months too late. My car was stolen in Jan 2022. This morning I hear that Kia is having exploding air bag issues. Don't know which models are affected yet, but it would not surprise me if my car is included. I do not feel safe driving this car with all of the safety issues I have.

Seatbelt fastened and while driving seat belt light will start flashing and beeping. Sometimes unfastening and refastening turns it off, other times it keeps flashing/beeping. Does not happen every time I am driving

The seatbelt holder clip on the back seat backrest does not retain seat bely when backrest is folded down so the seat belt gets caught in the backrest latch when returning backrest to upright. This causes damage to seatbelt which could compromise it during an accident.
