The 2013 Kia Forte is equipped with a timing chain. Several engine problems may arise, such as a loose spark plug leading to engine issues, a loose gasket that needs tightening, and potential oil leaks that require prompt repairs. One critical issue to watch for is engine overheating, as it could result in fires and even the car exploding. Additionally, you may experience excessive oil consumption, necessitating more frequent oil changes. It's recommended to change the coolant every 60,000 miles, while the air filter should be replaced every 15,000 to 30,000 miles. The spark plugs typically need changing every 100,000 miles unless they are copper, in which case the interval is every 30,000 miles.
