Wow that is a good run

have a 19 no issues at all, just got a 23, best value out there and they have great warranties

Haha, Kia really has had some big issues recently

@@ECPP So does toyota. Let's stop the clickbait scotty.

Kia's products have gotten a lot better over the last couple decades but I still wouldn't buy one or a Hyundai product for that matter. It's either a Toyota or a Lexus for me.

@@Slamjam88 why you can't afford one?

@@maga6319 no I'd rather drive my Avalon as a daily driver in the winter because it's been trouble-free ever since I bought it brand new. And I'd rather drive my lc500 in the summer. I'm pretty sure I can afford it buds. Korean cars are just trash period! I'm sorry you own one.

That’s fair

@@ECPP I watch every vid you post keep it up

@@maga4813 Kias and Hyundais suck though.

@@aasamspb967 says a jealous torll.

@@Swdiy not even, lol. My aunts crapped out at 70k

Fact

How about thousands more?

I have an 2003 Avalon XLS I use for my work car 332,000 miles the previous owner told me timing belt was done 80,000 miles ago so I'm getting close for another timein job see can it make it to 500,000 I do know it's a Lexus LS 400 1995 model in Southern California over 500,000 still going

Kia is new to the game compared to Toyota. Give the Koreans time while you watch your LG TV, watch this video on your SAMSUNG phone, wash your clothes on your LG washer and dryer, and cook your meals on your SAMSUNG appliances.

LMAO

That's what jealous people do when they rent a kia.

With reason

KIA BOIZ!!!!!!!!!!!😂😂😂😂😂

@@tocreatee3585 TROLL

My mom had a 2016 Kia Optima and the engine caught fire on the highway driving to p.a from nyc and they told her it was her they couldn’t pay cuz it was to much damage to determine where the fire started even tho that engine was recalled and they gave it back to her a few weeks before saying it was fine

@@newchannel1220 - Optima had that terrible 2.4L engine. Only the 2.0L and 1.6T have good trouble-free records.

@@newchannel1220keep in mind this guy also claimed to have an trouble free Elantra - hey he’s and them all! Trouble free! And he’s “verifying” lol. You’re always going to get the silly anecdotal accounts on any video… well MY Hyundai pony ran 3 billion miles and I never even put oil in! Hyuk!

I had a 99 Camry bought used with 75k miles. Drove it to around 250K doing basic oil changes and brakes, and it was finally killed by a young inattentive driver who ran into her side. Currently own an 06 Avalon, Bought it used with 132K on it. 5 years on, now with around 230k, still running strong. Maintenance performed since owning it: oil changes, brakes, coolant flush and new water pump. Those two vehicles were purchased as my daily drivers. In between them, after the Camry was totaled, I leased a 2014 Hyundai Sonata SE 2.0T. Drove it out of the lot, got home. Started it up the next morning, and heard a rod knock. Returned it to the dealer the next day, and to make a long story short, it got its engine replaced (Known problem with those engines at that time). I will NEVER buy another Hyundai/Kia/Genesis for as long as I live; same as VW/Audi/Porsche and Ford.

I thought the same thing.👍

Why?

​@@mychiefbecause the forte is more economical small sedan like the Corolla while the optima and K5 direct competitor to the Camry and Accord!

That’s 100% correct!

​@@mitsuevo8mr- true, but then Toyota would have completely obliterated Kia. He did not want to do that 😂

Thank you for sharing the comment and watching

Obviously Toyota wins. But if you're comparing Honda and Kia I think that's becoming a closer competition. I think Kia is slowly becoming what Honda USED to be in their glory days.

@@ronnato162 Totally agree.

True these companies need to continually innovate and improve otherwise become extinct

Looked at a 2022 Kia Telluride and they are still using old problematic engine designs in modern SUVs. Despite this, it ranked fairly high in predicted reliability.

Goodbye Land Rover then LOL !! I have one, just 22,700 miles has broken down twice, both times while travelling in Europe.

I'm currently in a dispute with Kia. The audacity they have, to tell me the problem is due to lack of maintenance, is disgusting.

@@shawnkemp6550 07 camry 140k i was afraid of that. how have they slipped?

Well Kia’s reliability was notably shit in the 90s and early 2000s so 😂😂

How about the Kia Soul? The 2024 is a really nice basic vehicle. It even has a spare tire.

I believe you r totally right on that

Toyota quality control is worst than Kia.

@@maga4813 i disagree

@@gabrielhuin no it's true. I'm an ex toyota owner. Feels cheaper than kia. Sorry for the truth hurting your feelings.

@@maga4813 we will see which cars are on the road in 15 years.

Absolutely great vehicles

That is a nice vehicle..hope you dont choke on the payments 😅

Good luck with that hydrid Replacemet

@@papaagidi2838 what are you talking about? Those batteries and systems last a long time before need replacing. Engine is super reliable and battery last 15 years now.

@@LivingInAnInverseReality yes any hybrid car battery can last 15yrs if you drive 2000 miles per year . I’m talking from experience , 2010 Camry battery died at 119K miles

Exactly. And compare the Sonata to the Camry.

So r have and others dont

Cars in Canada are required to have immobilizers. Its not required in the US so the ones getting stolen are the models without the push button start

That's actually amazing.

Same with my Borrego, great cars.

2.4 GDI is the brands most problematic engine.

Toyota car care nut did a review on one and wasn't impressed with the quality. Ya might wanna check it out.

@@johnl3230 will be better than a Hyundai and a Kia anytime.

Very nice!

You can use a scan tool to see how much life is left in the batteries.

Thanks for sharing

Exactly

Lol 😂

Hyundai easy to break, easy to steal , easy to catch fire. what a innovation😀

Because it's made in Korea. The ones made in the west have most of the problem.

Yikes

you can change out the horns for the doubles horns youre talking about from genesis parts

Don't buy Kia cars. Those are garbage.

Yeah, the ones made their tend to be better.

Yes. The Korean ones are noticeably better

still talking from the 90s? Kia has surpassed toyota's reliability.

Yes

Thanks

Good idea

Electrical issues on the forte? I’ve done lots of looking into this car and have yet to find anything like that

if you live in canada, there is no such thing as the kia boys. kias and hyundais have immobilizers because canada requires all cars to have them unlike the US

I don't think Jesus did anything to get rid of your kia soul

Right? Thought it was not noticable

@@ECPP haha no problem love you

​​@@Hello-fd7ttthat's what happens when you use cheap metals for engine parts. They wear out much faster and need more protection. Your piston rings are probably due to be changed.

Actually, Toyota went through a period of several years where their engines were consuming massive amounts of oil before 100k miles. This affected many of their models. Corolla, Camry, Rav4, etc.

Buy a Kia or Hyundai built in Korea not the US. The major problems have all been on cars assembled in the US. My 2014 Forte bought new has 70000 miles and never had one single issue. Just keep up on the maintenance as with any vehicle

NOPE. Toyota also considers a quart every 1000 miles normal oil consumption. Toyota has some engines that burn a crap ton of oil.

Thanks Mark. Yes that is an issue with direct injection and turbos can add stress too. Oddly some Lexus/Toyotas rock direct and port so the carbon thing does not become an issue

I believe you. My brother works for Honda over 30 yrs. He tells me the newer Accords and CR-V are always having engine troubles.

I agree

I switched to the Korean brands 10years ago, my Kia Rio dit 210000km, not one issue with it, never EVER topped up oil between services that was done yearly or every 150000km, with only 5w30, my 2nd was a Hyundai i20 1.4 Diesel, drove it 244000km with not a days problems bought it two years old with 30000km, NEVER ever had any problem with it and sold it after owning it for 6Years, my previous enployer bought it. I now bought a brand new Kia Sonet with the IVT transmission it actually simulates 8 gears under hard driving. you'd think it's a DCT, and it's VERY responsive. If toyota is so good, why do they have such a shit warranty? Not that warranty bothers me. Here in South Africa, Toyota and Vw and the majority of the others only get a 3-year warranty. Kia gets 5 years of unlimited km warranty and Hyundai 7 years 200000km. Lets see how it goes with this one, them people who are commenting shame some cannot afford Toyotas, big LOL, the Majority of Kias are priced HIGHER than Toyotas, and Toyotas are very high risk here tripple digit insurance premiums, and i have heard of all sorts of shit on them too, resale value on korean brands are pretty damn good every one i owned i ended up loosing nothing on selling it compated to what i paid for it, In any event its ones choice what they buy, and nobody can give a shit review unless they own one for at least 3 - 5Years. That's what a good warranty is about, and never had i had shit service from any hyundai or kia dealership either. The last rental i had was a Corolla CVT, and i was super disgusted in that chinese scooter like rubber band feeling and noise it made. Hectic, ever incline you approch it makes a hellova noise and revs constantly close to the red. After test driving the Kia with the IVT (CVT), i was expecting the same, but i was pleasantly surprised by the quality and quiteness. I did not think twice and bought one brand new. I could have bought the corolla cross for the exact same price, but Nah. AND here we get the Corolla and the corolla quest they call it, the previous generation corolla stripped and made cheaper, horroble cheap rattles, even the trunk matt covering the spare tire is as thin as a carboard box. Nah, no, thank you.

Toyota also did a recall two years ago for the same engine fire issue.

Camrys do come with CVT gearboxes in some markets, e.g. 2-liter Dynamic Force engine paired to a direct-shift CVT that has a physical first gear. That same powertrain is used in the Venza/Harrier and RAV4 in the Asian markets including Japan.

I thought I was the only one

Probably because the corolla are cvt, still good info. I know the gas camry is 8 speed but I haven't looked at all the models and there is alot of them lol

for sure

The real test lol

toyota ain't any better.

Yeah they were junk back then! Big turnaround.

I had a '88 Hyundai Excel...it was a dog. I'd have to turn off the AC to pass someone..gutless. the 5spd manual didn't let it up much either..
