I have service records going back to the day that this car was BORN with oil changes, injectors, tires, all types of service records.. and this problem that the engine is rubbing the side of the cylinder or something like that. The dealer said there's no fix, just a new engine. I don't understand this at all!
Driving, normal conditions, engine would stall with no lights, no chimes like auto start/stop except I had to put in park and restart. Then while doing 20-25 accelerating on interstate rod knock starts. Then there was a sudden loud bang, smoking engine bay and every light is lit up and engine seized. Large cylinder sized hole in engine and oil pan. Kia has at dealership, but less than 12k miles and engine already gone... I'm worried I should just let them replace and trade it in and get a different car all together.
