Vanlige feil og svakheter

Ved periodisk kjøretøykontroll (EU-kontroll) er de hyppigste manglene på Kia Soul bremser, lys og elektrisk, hjul, dekk og oppheng – punkter det er verdt å sjekke ekstra nøye før kjøp. Kia Soul har vært omfattet av 44 tilbakekallinger, blant annet knyttet til passenger car, engine and engine cooling:engine:hard parts internal/mechanical, air bags (se detaljer under). Amerikanske eiere har meldt inn 1 378 klager på Kia Soul, oftest på motor, unknown or other, drivverk, elektrisk anlegg. I Storbritannia består 76 % av Kia Soul den periodiske kontrollen (MOT) første gang, basert på 23 161 kontroller i 2023. (2023 er nyeste årgang DfT har publisert.)
