Description of the problem	My 2014 kia sorento is having terrible engine issues. I have had it rebuilt and there are still problems and no one is wanting to help me. I believe the vehicle was sold to me with the knowledge of these problems from the dealership. They just passed on the problem. I purchased this vehicle in july 2017. The vehicle has always run hot and the engine has never sounded good. The car burns oil very fast and the gas mileage is horrible. Now i have no power when i press the gas it has no get up. The car seems like it is going to die. The car also shakes very bad. I have new baby and i am scared to drive my car. My check engine light is flashing. The timing seems off totally. I also think the transmission is slipping. There is oil running down places on and around the engine that should not have oil on them and it is sludge like oil. I cant hardly make it through a turn i have to make sure absolutely no one is around if not i will get hit because the power is gone most of the time. It comes and goes.
