Description of the problem	Are 2015 kia soul had close to 100,000 miles on it and we started to have low loss of oil and a light clicking sound. We did not think very much of this. There was no oil leaking and so signs of oil burning through the exhaust. We continued to check oil and keep it full but it seemed to be running out faster then it should. One week after putting oil in it we were on the interstate and loss power and started hearing a loud knocking. The engine is dead and needs replaced. Our car is not under recall and we still have 10,000 dollars left to pay on the car. To replace the car with a new engine is around 5000 dollars.
