My engine is blown and Kia says it was a piston ring failure. There is a lengthy history of engine problems on this model. A class action lawsuit resulted in a lifetime extended warranty on the drive train. However, I'm finding 100's of cases of people with 2016 Kia blown engines and Kia saying the cause isn't due to the lawsuit issue (rods and main cylinder). There needs to be another class action lawsuit against Kia for knowingly ignoring major engine failures!
