 Description of the problemI purchased my 2016 kia forte in march 2017 used and since then i've been having suspension problems. May 2017 i had 3 alignments and i constantly been getting alignments and replacing my brakes and tires. August 2020 my car started to cut off while i was driving and accelerate when i tried to stop. My check engine code an ignition coils problem so i did a full tune-up and oil change in september. But it didnt fix the problem so after that my car code an intake failure. I had it repaired in october but it still didn't fix the problem and on top of that the pistons in the engine started grinding. I took my car back to the shop and they said that i need a whole new engine. Now my car been sitting every since the beginning of november.
