2000 Kia Carnival LS review from United Arab Emirates
"Comfort, but realy bad"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
-Exhaust system has been replaced completely.
- The electrical wiring gone wrong twice, so that a flashing hold sign comes. The dealer decides to replace the whole electrical wiring.
- The gasoline tank has been punched as a result of melting down because of the exhaust heat. Just think what clumsy design is this of putting the gas tank made of HDPE plastic and just think what would happend to the passengers if the car blown up as a result of putting heating element closed to gas tank
- The car fitted radio has a very poor recieption that any small, cheap radio has better recieption.
