2021 Kia Seltos problems
The Kia Seltos (Korean: 기아 셀토스) is a subcompact crossover SUV manufactured by Kia. Introduced in mid-2019, the Seltos is positioned between the smaller Stonic, Soul, or Sonet and the larger Sportage in Kia's global SUV lineup.
The Seltos is designated as a global product with three variations introduced for different markets. The first variation is the largest version of the Seltos, which is manufactured in South Korea (codename: SP2) mainly aimed at developed markets, including North America and Australasia. The two other variations are the Indian-made Seltos (codename: SP2i) and the closely related Chinese version badged as the Kia KX3 (codename: SP2c). The SP2i and SP2c models are the low-cost versions of the Seltos to penetrate emerging markets, built on the Hyundai-Kia K2 platform and closely related to the second-generation Hyundai Creta/ix25. Despite being a globally marketed model, the Seltos is not sold in the European market.
The name "Seltos" is derived from "Celtos", the son of Hercules and Celtine in Greek mythology. According to Kia, the Seltos will be marketed to millennials.

- Components: ENGINE
- Summary: My wife went to work 11/23/23 and the car died in the intersection, she would have been going 5 to 10 mph, the engine light came on. She was able to start it and return home. I made the appointment at Bob Lanpheres Beaverton Kia and the inspected the issue. It is reported to me that, “Boroscoped cylinders and found vertical scoring on the cylinders. Performed compression test and all cylinders are under spec” They replaced the engine, The total costs was 6486.65$. My research has shown me that a recall was issued for Seltos engines from this year and after talking to Kia and online my engine is not qualified for engine reimbursement because the manufacturer date was beyond the range of the recall. I feel this is wrong as the description from the repair shop and recall notice are identical and that the recall should be expanded. This page will not let me upload photos, I have a copy of the dealers findings.

I've had my Seltos for six months and have only driven 2,200 miles. It's a fantastic CUV for the price! I chose the FWD S model since I live in sunny Arizona and rarely drive on non-paved roads or in snow. The Seltos drives great and offers a variety of advanced safety features. Although I wish LED headlights and blind-spot monitoring were available on all trims, I'm still happy with my purchase. I turned off lane keep assist and auto start/stop since they were both annoying, but I'm glad I have the option to turn off auto start/stop. I do wish the Seltos would remember my driving mode preference after each restart. However, I love the Apple CarPlay integration and find the infotainment system easy to navigate. The Seltos drives smoothly and quietly on the highway, and the acceleration is more than adequate for a non-turbo model. Although I wish there was an option to add a cover to the hatch area, the interior cabin is spacious and I appreciate the adjustable cargo floor. I especially love the overall look of the Seltos, especially in Neptune Blue (the color of mine), Starbright Yellow, or Mars Orange. Despite the few things I wish were different, I absolutely love my Seltos and would buy it again today. If you're considering a CUV, it's definitely worth checking out and cross-shopping.

Compared to other small SUVs we tried, the Seltos was much quieter and rode smoother. The ride is similar to that of a larger car. I love it! The features are just right, the interior is pleasant, and the controls are nice. The car handles nimbly and is easy to drive - which was my wife's reason for buying it. It has enough power, good mileage, and the AWD she wanted for rainy weather. KIA has definitely hit a home run with this one!

After reading about the new Seltos model, I decided to give it a try coming from a lease. I was pleasantly surprised by how nimble, responsive, comfortable, sharp-looking, and affordable it is. Even with the base model, I am still pleased with my purchase. I am currently averaging 36.6 mpg, which is impressive considering it's not even highway driving. While I do miss some features like the auto tailgate opener, keyless entry, and heated seats as winter approaches, I am overall very satisfied with this spacious vehicle, especially for the price.

I was in the market for a new car after owning a Kia Soul for 5 years, which I really enjoyed. Initially, I planned on purchasing another Soul, but when the local dealership received a Seltos, I couldn't resist taking it for a test drive. After owning it for a year, I can confidently say that my experience has been nothing but positive. Here are some of the pros: it's great on gas, has 3 drive modes (eco, normal, and sport, which is quite snappy off the line), comes with AWD, offers great color options (I went with neptune blue), has multiple trim options available, and is priced very reasonably for what you get (I opted for the base model to avoid all the extras I didn't need, like lane assist, etc.). Apple CarPlay is also a great feature for keeping up with communication when I'm on the road for long periods of time. The Seltos feels roomy for a small SUV, has great cargo space, and the infotainment screen graphics are clear, with crisp images from the backup camera, making it easy to see a good area of space behind you. As for the cons, the start/stop technology can be a bit laggy when you let off the brake (I turn this feature off), and the sound system isn't quite up to snuff compared to what I had in the Soul. It's not very loud, and forget it if you listen to anything with decent bass. Even after changing the settings, I still feel like it's lacking in that area.
-
Your car is amazing! It drives like a dream and has great features. Even though it's smaller, there's still plenty of room for everyone. And the moon night blue color is just awesome. You made a great choice and I'm so happy for you!

Are you having problems with your 2021 Kia Seltos?
Claude Dare 2025-03-14
I really like this car, but unfortunately, I've had some issues with it. The AC stopped working after only 1000 miles, which was a bit disappointing. I later found out that this is a common problem with these cars. Then, at 3300 miles, the IVT transmission broke down. It's been 40 days since I gave it to the service, and unfortunately, the process has been quite complicated and the staff were not very friendly when trying to fix the transmission problem on my new car. I haven't received any updates yet, which is frustrating. If you're okay with dealing with some issues and renting a car for a while during the first few months of owning it, then the Seltos might be a good choice for you. However, if you'd rather avoid these kinds of problems, it might be best to look elsewhere.
Roman Connelly 2025-02-26
At just 1500 miles, the lane departure, crash avoidance, and high beam dimming features of this SUV stopped working. Additionally, the dual clutch transmission bucks and jumps at low speeds. However, I am pleased to report that the issue was identified and a new computer has been ordered to fix the problem. While the part will not be available until mid-March, the dealership has offered me a free oil change. Rest assured that once the computer is installed, this SUV will be running smoothly once again.
Dylan Hauck 2025-02-18
The vehicle, which is less than a year old and has only 5k miles, required a new transmission. Despite waiting for months, a new transmission was eventually installed. However, after just 2 months, it began slipping again and is now unable to be driven even in sport mode.
Ron Sauer 2024-10-26
The car has been in the shop for almost a month despite having been driven for less than 5k miles in the year that I have owned it. Despite attempts to fix the issue, the car still has every light on the dashboard on, will not shift into drive or reverse, and the keys will not work. The entire fuse block has been replaced in an effort to resolve the issue, but the car was still completely dead when I attempted to pick it up after being told it was fixed. Given these persistent issues, I am considering exploring my legal options.
Diamond Mohr 2024-09-27
I have owned my Seltos since May 2020. While it has experienced a few recalls and required some maintenance, I am confident in its overall quality and performance. I am currently addressing a piston issue and a leak, but I trust that these will be resolved quickly and effectively. Despite its low mileage of 5000 miles, I am satisfied with my Seltos and would recommend it to others.
