For 2 years the KIA was apparently running fine then problems began to emerge:
- Head gasket blew at around 30,000KM
- Electrical problems with fuel injection
- Electrical problems with warning lights
-Fuel gage sticks at half-way point
- CD-Player skips and now CDs just won't play.
- Automatic gearbox starting to have problems in engaging 4th gear.
The car's turning circle is terrible. Although it was a good price, and it comes with 3 years manufacturers warranty, having the car of the road every 2nd week is not worth it.
Re-sale price drops considerably.
