Advice to buyer: |
Poor quality parts. Be prepared to invest some money for repairs and also spending your share of time at the dealership with other waranty repairs. |
Detailed review: |
It's rough riding. You have to like the ride of a truck. Some idiot designer put the release lever for the gas tank on the floor just where your leg hits it while you drive! No 'get up and go'. If traffic is heavy, you better wait to merge from a dead stop! Poor quality parts. Too many repairs. So far under warranty, but still a big waste of my time. Warranty on the 99 is only 3 years so I look forward to paying $$$ if I don't get rid of it by then. No help from KIA. I told them they use inferior parts or I wouldn't have all these repairs at 18,000 miles!! They didn't seem too concerned. |
