‘No family should have to go through what we went through,’ Oklahoma father who lost son in KIA fire reacts to new recall

A Calvin man who lost his son due to a KIA Soul fire back in 2019 contacted KFOR wanting to once again share the family’s tragic story after a new KIA recall.

“We’ve had days that are okay, and we’ve had days that have not been very good,” Robert Carlton told News 4.

It’s been almost two years since Robert and Becky Carlton lost their son, Jordan.

“My wife, Becky, the situation that she was in, those memories will never leave,” Robert said. Jordan and his mom were inside a 2019 KIA Soul, a rental, in Hawaii when it caught fire back in 2019.

Both of them were seriously hurt. Jordan suffered from burns on more than 80 percent of his body. He died 14 months later.

“No family should have to go through what we went through,” Robert said.
