2001 Kia Rio review from North America

My Head gasket blew at 65,000 miles.

My wheel bearings went twice on the drivers side and three times on the passenger side.

My spindles went twice on the driver side in less that 3 months.

The seats are ruined, they fell apart.

The timing chain went and messed the car up worse than it was prior.

My seat belts in the back won't even come out on either side.

I can't go anywhere to get an oil change because they can't do it.

The car is not a reliable piece of transportation, to think I was going to put my two young children in that death trap.

Two weeks after I got the car it was already in the garage because my passenger side tire was leaning in.

In this car, you seriously feel like you are riding in a Flyer wagon on a rocky path, it is unbelievably uncomfortable.

The car didn't even come with a radio, I had to put one in myself.

I couldn't drive the car for more than 25 miles without letting it rest, if I didn't it would hesitate and not shift well.
