2003 Kia Rio review from North America
"It's my little race car, and I love it, and love to drive it!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing - I love my KIA!
General comments?
I have owned my KIA for 2 years now, and have not had any problems with it. I received a recall about my fuel tube and even though mine was fine at the time, I still took it in (it was free!)
To everyone who reads all the negative comments - don't believe what you hear. I run my car to the limit, and 2 years and 33,000 miles later, it is still in mint condition. It even looks good with 10 spoke 17 inch rims!! All I can say is that I love my Kia, and I will definatly buy another.
