2001 Kia Sephia review from North America
"Good deal and durable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Fuel pump has been replaced twice. Once it was completely covered by the warranty.
Engine lights come on for no reason.
General comments?
It's been a good car. My first new car and the dealership always honored the warranty.
I agree that it has been a good car for the money. It is still going strong.
I have gotten 95% of the work done at the dealership. The same guy has been the manager of the service department, and he has always been on the up and up.
I wish I could afford a luxury car, but for what it is, it has been an excellent car.
