Description of the problem	My 2017 kia showed no signs of problems until i was driving to store on state road 9 going 40 mph and while in drive in died out on me. I turned the key over a few times. It finally caught and started. I continued home and it did this again. Only the oil light came on. I got it started and moved off the road and had it towed to my mothers. When i tried to start it again it wouldnt start. My step father looked at it and the piston had flown it to the spark plug. And i was told my moter was blown.
