2001 Kia Sephia LS review from North America
"Its a good car for the price but dont expect too much.You get what you buy and make the best of it"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have a 2001 kia sephia LS and at first I had multiple problems. The car was bought used so I expected this. Then after replacing the cap on the radiator and getting a tune I am quite satisfied with the car.
General comments?
Its interior is not the best and wears quickly, but it is very easy to clean and that I like. It doesn t do as good on gas as I thought, but its reliable. I have made some adjustments and replaced some of the stock parts. It is now running better on gas and has a little more pick up.
There is still a vibration is the steering wheel that I must fix, but its the last thing. I drive it pretty hard and think minor problems are expected. It is not the best car, but I think its reliability is whats important. Finding parts for a sephia is hard, but with some investment it can be a great car.
