2001 Kia Sephia LS review from North America
"This Kia ruined my life"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My doors would freeze shut in the winter.
My clutch would stick in second gear.
Acceleration was slow.
Cost me 1200 the first year to get inspected.
Cost me over 4000 to fix in 2 years.
General comments?
I loved my car, but the costs were ridiculous.
Parts for the car were hard to find.
