    I am a trim carpenter in the cabinet business. I removed the back seat and installed a 3/4 plywood platform for all my tools and parts. Gotta love the 30 mpg. I have a bunch of questions for you guys going forward. Need a full size spare tire ASAP. Chow

    I bought a car at a dealership an hour and a half away from where I live. But there is a dealership within 20 minutes of where I do live. Is my warranty only good at the dealership I bought the car or at all Kia dealerships? Reason for asking: My check engine light came on and I would assume...

    Interesting read. It's about Ford but thinking other makers will have some similar guidelines. There is a link to the actual Ford document in the article. https://jalopnik.com/how-a-car-company-decides-if-its-going-to-warranty-your-1821736111

    Finally turned over the big 100K. Caught it just in time and was able to snap a couple pics as I exited the Freeway. I have to say, these first 6 years have been good ones. I hope to get another 100K without too much additional expense. So far the only thing that came unexpectedly was the UVO...

    Has anyone experienced any issues with warranty when changing their own oil? The local dealerships REALLY suck (REALLY!), and I'd rather just change it myself, but I don't want them to blame me for warranty issues later. Beuford

    So, this 2017 Kia Soul+ with Audio Package is my first brand new car, and my first Kia. I want to be able to take advantage of the excellent warranty if I need it (I mean, hopefully I won?t, but I want to keep that option open). I am willing to get the dealer recommended service, but was a...

    Have loved my Soul since I bought it last year (despite being suspicious the I might have been able to get a better deal, but was desperate at the time...). It's such a fun car, and just the right size for me and my two little dogs. Have any of you gone ahead with paying for the extended...

    I've been having this problem recently where the Soul refuses to start and I have to remove the key and try again about 3-4x before it starts. It doesn't happen all the time. I got the battery replaced about 15 months ago, so I know its not the battery. I suspect its the starter. This car may be...

    Hello, Last fall my roof would almost shut and then go flying back and not close. Usually I could keep trying and eventually it would close but one night was spent with my beach umbrella opened up through the roof in case it rained. So I took it to the dealership, they inspected it and said...

    Hi all! So I bought my newest Kia (2016 Soul Base) at my local dealership. I'm wondering if anyone knows if they track what options came with the car by the VIN in their computers? What I'm really interested in knowing is if they'd have any way of knowing if I installed any options and how...

    Our 2014 Soul! has developed knocking / clunking over uneven pavement and small bumps, coming from the front end (you can feel the clunks through the floorboard even). It's most prominent at low speeds, say under 30 mph. I've had the car on ramps and been underneath checking for loose...

    Hi, Brand new here, and I'll be changing the oil on my wife's Soul. I know it takes the 26300-35504 filter, and I read somewhere that if the factory filter isn't used, it can void the warranty. Also read that the factory filters are pretty good filters, so unless I hear otherwise, I'll stick...

    Does anyone know if the 5 yr warranty cover the key fob? It stopped locking today :culpability:

    I bought a new 2016 Soul on Friday and feel the warranty options (gap and road hazard, life) were not accurately explained now that I've had time to explore them and want to cancel them. My insurance company offers Gap for $15 a year! I understand this covers deductible but even so, it's way...

    Anyone installed Fumoto valve on their Kia. I have used this valve on all my cars for the last 10 years. It is basically the best thing since sliced bread. Worried about putting it on my Kia as I'm still debating whether to use the dealer for oil changes as there "may" be warranty issues down...

    I kept my Soul maintained for the past six years. Before I began a cross country road trip two weeks ago, I had an oil change and the fluids checked. I left New York. I noticed a slight clicking noise in the middle of nowhere (50 to 100 miles outside Vegas) at 2am. About two hours later, my car...
