2000 Kia Carnival LS review from Australia and New Zealand
"You almost get what you deserve"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
CD player skips when you hit slight bumps on the road.
Check light constantly coming on and off with no explanation. Has been looked at 3 times, Dealership explanation sensor and wiring problem all replaced, but problem still persists.
Starter motor problem Dealership fixed.
Head gasket blown 90000km still sorting out if warranty coverage is valid.
General comments?
Hard to turn sharply.
Hard to park in parking bays.
