Why is my Kia Sorento making a knocking sound?

I've noticed a knocking sound coming from my Kia Sorento whenever I accelerate. What could be causing this issue and how can I fix it?

The knocking sound could indicate a problem with your engine. It is best to take your car to a certified mechanic for a thorough inspection and diagnosis.

Check your oil levels and make sure they are at the recommended level. Low oil levels can also cause a knocking sound in your engine.

If you recently had any engine work done, the knocking sound could be a result of improper installation or loose components. I suggest consulting with the mechanic who performed the work.
