Is it more expensive to repair Kia Soul EV electric vehicle systems?

The answer is, it depends. Certain high voltage parts are only available as components in larger units. We do offer promotional financing through the Firestone credit card.* (*Subject to credit approval.)

How often should you replace Kia Soul EV brakes?

A brake inspection is your smartest first step. Investing in manufacturer suggested maintenance intervals for Kia Soul EV brakes is another good idea. That said, front brake pad wear can be significantly reduced in electric vehicles because of regenerative braking.

My Kia Soul EV dashboard warning light is on. What should I do?

There are so many reasons the Soul EV dashboard warning light can illuminate. Stop by Firestone Complete Auto Care for an electric vehicle diagnostic to learn more. You may also have a warning light on the dash regarding your high voltage system.

Why is my Soul EV leaking water?

If you’ve been running the A/C in your electric car, don’t be too surprised to find some water underneath it. Electric vehicles use a receiver dryer assembly to help keep the A/C refrigerant clean, which can produce external condensation. This condensation then drains under the vehicle on warm days. While a small amount of water can be considered normal, large puddles or any coolant leaking from your Soul EV could indicate a cooling system problem.

Local EV Service for 2016 Kia Soul EV

Does your Kia Soul EV run differently than it used to? Maybe you've felt less "pep" in its acceleration, or it feels like it is taking forever to go from 0 to 60MPH. Whatever the issue, our technicians can run through a no-charge* electric/hybrid vehicle check to get a better idea. There could be an issue with the high voltage cooling system in your Soul EV -- if the high voltage battery is running hot, it will limit the battery’s performance. Or, perhaps there are Diagnostic Trouble Codes stored in one of your Soul EV's electric modules? Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care location is equipped to offer conventional and low voltage services for all electric car makes and models, and that includes your 2016 Kia Soul EV.

Select Firestone Complete Auto Care locations also offer advanced/high voltage services for electric vehicles like the Kia Soul EV. A high voltage service is anything that requires removing the Kia's high voltage, service/safety disconnect plug/switch, servicing any high voltage cables, the power inverter, the high voltage electric machines/motors, the high voltage battery pack, high voltage A/C compressor, etc. Before making an appointment, call your closest location to confirm that high voltage services are offered.

Your store's high voltage electric vehicle service may include:

Electric vehicle diagnostic: A diagnostic is the next step we take after noting the symptoms your Kia Soul EV is showcasing. This step will help us get to the bottom of the real problem. With those insights, a trained technician will further investigate any electric vehicle problems and decide if more analysis is required to complete the fix. No repairs are performed without your consent.

High voltage battery cooling inspection: Your technician will examine the Soul EV's high voltage battery filter, if applicable, and clean the battery's ducts. (This applies to air-cooled high voltage batteries. Liquid-cooled or refrigerant-cooled high voltage batteries are inspected differently.)

High voltage cable inspection: The outer cable jackets and connectors on your 2016 Soul EV will be inspected and tested to ensure high voltage is NOT transferring to the chassis. Your technician will notify you if the cable is in need of replacement.

Isolation test: This test involves using a unique tool to see if any high voltage parts are "leaking" electric energy to the Soul EV's chassis.

Remove and replace high voltage battery: Is your 2016 Kia Soul EV high voltage battery weak and failing? Sometimes electric vehicle batteries can wear out sooner than you expect in hotter climates or if you use Level 3 fast-charging stations often, as these stations can heat up the battery more. We can replace your electric vehicle's high voltage battery.

Health check for the power electronic systems: We'll inspect the electric drive machine(s)/motor(s), power inverter, and/or regenerative braking in your 2016 Kia Soul EV.

These are only a few of the special electric car services that could be available at your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care. Call ahead to confirm!
