2006 Kia Rio Convenience review from North America
"If I had my time back, I would have NEVER bought my Rio."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Seats are wearing.
Looses engine power on the highway.
Stalls while I am driving (not changing gears)
CD player shuts itself off.
Engine light comes on.
General comments?
This car is not anywhere close to reliable. I never know if I should take it on the highway because I am scared that it will lose engine power again, and I will be stranded with my kids.
