I had to replace my engine. I actually had to borrow the money. I went on Kia-Consumer-Assistance-to file a claim for reimbursement.  They sent me a denial letter on 6/30/22 stating I did not have the knock sensor detector. Well I would have if I received the notice. I bought my car used. The dealership didn't have any recalls and I did not receive anything until May 2022. Kia emailed me about the knock sensor detector. Although I replaced my engine I had it installed on 6/17/22. How could have known about something that I never received. I didn't even know there was a class action lawsuit until I went on line to find Kia Corporate information.  I emailed several people and nit one person emailed back. I was asking for assistance but I guess they delete it but I still have it.  I feel like this is an ongoing issue with Kia and they need to reimburse everyone that has had engine failures due to THEIR NEGLIGENCE. Does someone have to be driving and the car turns off and they get hit because of the engine failure.  This is a sign of bad business. My reimbursement for the engine needs to be approved. Kia has more than enough money. If they would have tested the GDI engines first  before releasing them to the public they probably would not have half the complaints.  I think another class action lawsuit should be filed against them. Not only has this impacted me financially but it has impacted me emotionally.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2016","productMake":"KIA","productModel":"SORENTO","manufacturer":"Kia America, Inc."}]}]}
