The first time this issue occurred, Kia documented the problem and kept my vehicle overnight to perform what they referred to as an \u201cengine soak.\u201d I was informed that this procedure might resolve the engine performance and oil consumption problems. I was also advised that if the issue reoccurred within 15 years of vehicle ownership or before reaching 150,000 miles, Kia would replace the engine under the recall warranty.  Recently, the same issue has reappeared, but Kia is now refusing to replace the engine, citing \u201cgaps in maintenance\u201d from the early years of my ownership. I explained that, at that time, my father performed all oil changes and maintenance at home to reduce costs, as I was a young driver living with my parents. Kia is requesting proof of oil or tool purchases from over ten years ago, which I no longer possess. Additionally, all vehicle-related documentation was left inside the car when it was stolen and broken into twice\u2014incidents connected to the nationwide Kia theft issue that has been subject to another class-action lawsuit. As a result, I no longer have access to those records.  During my initial visit, the Kia service representative, Jake, assured me that if the engine failed again and I maintained the vehicle properly, I would be covered for a full engine replacement. I have made every effort to comply with those terms, yet Kia corporate has denied my claim. I am requesting NHTSA\u2019s assistance in resolving this matter and ensuring that Kia honors its recall obligations and prior representations made to me as a consumer.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2015","productMake":"KIA","productModel":"SOUL","manufacturer":"Kia America, Inc."}]}]}
