Has anyone seen this Link?! I wasn't happy after I read this about KIA Seltos's engine reliability.

The 2021 Kia Seltos Still Struggles With Engine Problems

The 2021 Kia Seltos has two engine options. The base engine is a 2.0-liter four-cylinder unit with 146 hp and 132 lb-ft of torque. You can upgrade to the 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine for 175 hp and 195 lb-ft of torque. So, definitely go with the second option. The first is a little underpowered.

Our turbo seems to be running fine - 2 2500 trips to see the kids under our belts....but if it left us old people stranded in the middle of Montana I could never forgive it....hahahahah.......

Two years and 76,000 miles into my Seltos ownership and there have been no issues! Yes, you read that correctly - 76,000 miles. Still feels like a new car to me. Trips to WA, UT, NV, AZ and all over CA. Only unscheduled expense - $2.20 for a rubber bumper door stop that went missing from the passenger front door.

Thanks for some good news - we often only hear bad news here. We're off in 5 weeks for another 2500 trip so you have buoyed my confidence!
