2015 Kia Sorento Fuel system Problems

“My 2015 Kia Sorento has metal flakes in the engine, burns 2 quarts of oil every 2ooo miles, it hesitates on acceleration, white exhaust smoke, burns a lot of gas, the engine check light and uvo warnings constantly turns on, it can catch on fire anytime, the engine can lock anytime. We need more Kia recalls before lives are lost.”

“The first incident was after refueling. I did not top off. The car just died while idling, took 3 tries to start then lurched when I put it in drive and died again. I was told by the dealer it was because my tank was too full. I drove 325 miles to an almost completely tank. The indicator stated I still had 76 miles left of fuel. I put 14.5 gallons in (not to the full line) and 12 hours later, it won't start. The battery is new. It's not the battery.”

“My car started stuttering and then the check engine light came on and started flashing. Got the code read at a Kia dealership and it was determined through a diagnostic that we needed a new engine. We replaced the engine and the car is still stuttering and having gas mileage issues. When the check engine light flashes, my gas mileage is affected and when the check engine light stays on, my vehicle runs normal. My vehicle starts stuttering at around 30-35 MPH, when it's first started and driven, it stutters. …”

“My friend was on the highway,travelling along and heard a noise. Then she saw smoke coming from under the car along side drivers door. The car then lost acceleration and stopped. Within five minutes the car caught fire and is totalled out. An off duty lawman stopped to help her. He told her either the fuel line or fuel pump burst and told her we have grounds for lawsuit against Kia for faulty design. My friend is in total distress over this incident and deserves compensation for emotional distress. …”

“My Kia lost power while driving on march 17, 2017 on the highway. After Kia replaced the motor I realized that during cold weather my car won't start at all. I've had several diagnostic tests done but nothing shows up. I've even had the manager of the service department come to my location with the diagnostic device, because I was once again stranded and had just paid to have the machine put on my vehicle the day before. Again nothing showed up. It only happens during cold hard freeze weather. I've filed a report with Kia and to this day no one has contacted me. …”
