2001 Kia Sephia LS review from North America
"Excellent car for first time car buyers"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My A/C compressor has just gone out.
General comments?
Overall I think the car was a very good buy.
Although the A/C compressor just went out I attribute that to running it hard when I lived in FL and running it hard again during the winter now that I live in OH.
It's no performance sport car, of course, but it handles well for a manual 4-cylinder.
I've driven it many times between OH and FL, never with any problems.
