Why is my Kia Stonic's engine making a strange noise?

I recently purchased a Kia Stonic and I've noticed that the engine makes a strange noise. It's not constant, but it happens frequently enough to be concerning. Is this normal or should I have it checked?

Hi Marisol, congratulations on your new Kia Stonic! It's always a good idea to have any unusual noises checked out, just to be safe. I suggest bringing it to a trusted mechanic for a diagnostic test.

Hi there, Marisol. I had a similar experience with my Kia Stonic and it turned out to be a loose belt in the engine. I suggest taking it to a mechanic to get it fixed before it becomes a bigger issue.

Hello Marisol, it's not uncommon for new cars to make strange noises as the engine components settle in. However, if the noise is particularly loud or consistent, it's always best to get it checked out by a professional mechanic.
