You clearly had issues with a Kia, since you posted as well in the other Kia Sportage review. Again - check the mileage for starters. Second, your Kias in North America are built locally with different suppliers. Your local vehicles may have issues that other markets may not have (and vice-versa - you'll never have any of the turbodiesel problems that the rest-of-world cars may have).

Not in this part of the world. Maybe only the ones assembled in the USA.

Never heard of any transmission problems with Kia here. Or any other problems either. Mine is 6 years old now, nothing has ever gone wrong. Even the battery is the original factory one.
