I’ve owned 3 Kia Souls over a 12 year period.
Having owned many new domestic and foreign cars over the years I can honestly say the Kia Soul build quality and reliability are on a par, or better than
any of my previous cars!
Plus they seem to be quite popular….definitely see a lot of them tooling around TV.
As an owner, I can understand their popularity!
I’ve also personally met a few fellow Kia Soul owners, and all seem very pleased.
I doubt that you have ever owned one!

As far as advice for the OP….dealerships are dealerships and be cautious and do your research!
Your present vehicle is fine, so you may want to hold off awhile and see if the car market normalizes a bit!
Right now inventories are low and dealer add on market adjustment fees are substantial.
