Since that time we had had no engine issues.  We maintained our brakes, and standard upkeeps on the car. Eight years in and still our car had given us no issues.  Our most recent oil change was on 9/13/25 and it was inspected during that oil change and no issues were noted.   The car had since that time been driven as expected to school for kids and work for myself and activities on the weekend for family time. There was no weird smells, discolored smoke from the tail piper or anything.  The car was running fine.  At no time were any warning signals on, flashing or intermittently coming on and off.     Then on Thursday, 1/22/26 evening I stopped by the gas station to get gas before turning into my neighborhood for home.  Upon leaving the gas station, I noticed and felt the engine seemed off and vibrating with soft tremor like shaking and as I pressed on the gas for power it was soft power, and at that moment only did I see the check engine light on solid (not flashing).  I called my husband and a few mins later we made it home, he came out to check the car, and saw now that the engine light was flashing over and over.   We read up on what this meant and new we had a problem.   We dropped the car off on Saturday to the mechanic and on Monday, 1/26/26 a diagnostic was made and was given the bad news that the engine had complete failure.  $18,000 bill to fix all the issues.  But here is a short synopsis: Multiple codes found in ECM  Metal found in oil, oil is also 1 or more quarts low P0300 (Random misfire),  P0302 (CYL #2 misfire),  p0304, (CYL#4 misfire) p0306. (CYL#6 misfire) p0175, (bank 2 rich)  p0018 (crank - cam correlation) Engine has internal failure, failing piston rings allowing oil in combustion chamber, causing misfire, rich condition and engine shaking This was a shock and we had to sell it for nothing to a salvage company.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2017","productMake":"KIA","productModel":"SEDONA","manufacturer":"Kia America, Inc."}]}]}
