My wife’s brand new 2012 Dodge Journey had it’s engine replaced with 300 miles on it. Thing was leaking oil from the rear main seal. One of the first Pentastar 3.6s and Chrysler decided to give me whole new engine. They even sent engineers from Auburn Hills to help at the dealer. In my experience, nothing is bullet proof.

Sorry about your bad luck. I have never had an engine failure and know nobody that has. In any case, I was not talking about isolated engine failures. I was talking about enough engine failures that Kia was forced to issue a recall. Anyway, your's is an entirely different engine so you should not be affected. Good luck with the beautiful car.

The KIA is bigger than what "used to be" mid sized but doesn't move like a big car! Go test drive one and tell me your not impressed and I'll call you a liar or in denial
