My transmission started slipping and when I looked under my hood there was transmission fluid all over.. I am a single parent and know nothing about cars and just wondering how to put fluid back into the transmission. I don't know a mechanic and not sure I can afford to get this fix.

doesn't kia have the 100,000 mile warranty? check with dealer first. this needs a mechanic to check the level as there is no dipstick. it may have a line leaking.

Exactly what he said. Kia has a 10 year/100,000 mile drivetrain warranty. Take it to the dealer.
