1998 Kia Sephia Sedan review from North America
"It's terrible"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
First of all I did not know that cars can have TWO catalytic converters... on this thing I have had BOTH of them replaced... and still the problem with the car still persists.
I have also changed the spark plugs (TWICE WITHIN 6 MONTHS OF EACH OTHER)
This car is worse than the dealer who sold it to me... the check engine light won't go off, no matter how many times I fix what they say the problem is...
General comments?
I would not recommend the car to ANYONE.
It's terrible.
