1998 Kia Sephia review from North America
"A nice first car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I had to replace the brakes and rotors about 3 weeks after I bought it, which was very upsetting since it cost me $200.
The car dents really really easy and when I got a dent repaired I leaned on it and it re-dented.
General comments?
I love my car very much.
But I can definitely see what people talk about the bad things of this car because it seems like most of them are coming true.
