It's frustrating to hear about the difficulties you're experiencing with your warranty and service records. We understand how important it is to have these issues resolved, especially when past maintenance history is involved. If there's anything further we can do or discuss regarding this situation, please don't hesitate to reach out. Thank you, Jorge Benitez - Service Lane Manager - 8633330525

Jorge, you are already completely aware of and have been an ongoing part of this problem. "Kia has been known to have issues with piston oil rings, particularly in certain model years of the Kia Soul and Seltos, where the rings may not have been properly heat-treated during manufacturing, leading to excessive oil consumption and potential engine damage; this issue has resulted in a recall affecting these vehicles." Kia has had a recall regarding this very issue that has been ongoing for almost the past decade, but the recall does not fix the issue, and there is nothing that Kia, or Regal Kia is going to do about it. Please do your research before buying a Kia, and (whatever you do) if you have a problem, do not take it to Regal Kia!!!
