2001 Kia Sephia LS review from North America
"Crap car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My transmission is going in the first year.
Fabric catches on fire awfully quick.
Seat belt getting stuck.
Wipers not working properly.
Air conditioner gone in 5 months.
Front end vibration noise since the day we bought the car.
Tires have a sharp squeak noise to them since the day we purchased the car.
Battery not charing properly.
General comments?
This is the worst car I could ever imagine possible.
