2001 Kia Sephia review from North America

"Kia's aren't cars, they are money pits!"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

The car is a piece of junk.

Everything you can imagine went wrong with it.

The dealership even went as far as accusing me of putting diesel in my car. That's funny, I thought diesel in my unleaded car would cease it? Yet I drove around in it for 5 days and they even changed the fuel pump in the car and never smelt the diesel. How convenient!

The Kia dealership I dealt with are con artists. Customer service is what you'll see when they are trying to et you to buy or lease one of their pices of junk. After you sign your life away don't expect to get service and yes they will try and peg you for just about anything so they don't have to cover the cost of fixing yur car.

If you are looking for good customer service I strongly suggest you stay away from Kia Gabriel in Montreal. The service manager at kia refused to speak to me in english, the language of my choice. Arrogance is something they pride themselves on.

As for the car problems, engine light keeps coming on. They can't seem to fix it after having seen them 3 times. Within 3 months of buying the car the brakes needed to be change.

The car's get up and go got up and went. The car chugs whenever you accelorate.

All the mechanics that work on my car are about 20 years of age. They look like they just stepped out of mechanic school. How can they possible have enough experience to fis my car that never seems to get fixed?

I had an A/C on my lease and the dealership had given me my car until the A/C would be installed in my car. That took 6 months to get done.

General comments?

If anyone want a good car for a good price don't buy a Kia. It's a crappy car for way too much money in my opinion. Kia is lacking in good customer service and as far as I'm concerned, Kia will never get me referring anyone to them and I will never drop a penny in that place again. If, however, you are looing for a life full of drama, then buy a kia!
