2006 Kia Rio sedan review from North America
"Not worth buying"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have purchased a 2006 kia rio brand new. Right out of the show room, around 23000 miles, had problem with rear bearing. Dealer change them, had same problem 7 or 8 times, had other problem with suspenison, hear bearing again. Anybody with same problem should ask dealer to change rear spindle, it always the passenger side.
General comments?
Car feels like it has square tires stay away from this car rather buy nice use car.
