This Car Randomly Leaves Me STRANDED!

2015 Kia Soul 4dr Wagon (1.6L 4cyl 6A)

I would love to love this car. There are so many good things, but when a car randomly leaves you stranded, I have to give it a ONE. Ever since I bought it, sometimes i'll get in it and the key won't turn. I jiggle the key, I jiggle the wheel, usually I have to use a screw driver to unlock the shift to get it into neutral. Then I can usually shimmy it loose. But 2 years ago, I couldn't get it unlocked and they had to take it in on a flat-bed. Then, it was under warranty. It happened again yesterday, and now it's NOT under warranty. So, it's costing me $1000 to replace something that's already been replaced and the problem NEVER WENT AWAY! I will NEVER buy a KIA Soul again!!!

Got a new 2015 Soul when our baby was three months old. Great little family car. They are like Glocks. They are not pretty, you use them and abuse them, but they are reliable and get the job done.

If you buy this make sure you get the extended warranty this is now the 3rd engine going into this car. Exhaust valve, fuel pump, oil pump... have only had this car for less then 2 years!! Beyond disappointed!! I love everything about the Soul WHEN IT WORKS! too many times have I been stranded.
