Hi Y'all- as some of you know I have had bad luck with cars for the past 10 years! Yikes! I finally found a great car that I absolutely loved and adored, but am now facing recall challenges. There was a recall on my engine that was not addressed correctly by a local dealership, which has led to my engine failing/ catching on fire. Kia Corporate has denied my claim to have it replaced.

The cost to replace the engine is $8,000, which I obviously do not have, so I am asking help from my community and friends. My goal is to raise enough so I can replace my engine while I deal with the legalities of getting my car fixed by Kia (I am currently working with a lawyer to get this resolved) and still make the car payments every month.
