No major issues, just normal wear and tear replacement of parts: alternator, battery, brake pads, front passenger wheel bearing, radiator fan, is about all I've had to repair so far. Of course, we all know what opinions are like, but imho, Kia makes a good car.

I've had mine since 2008, and the only replacement I do is just the brakes and recently the strut, and thank God it's still running at 264K. It's a great vehicle for me. Mine already cross cross North America without any problem on the road. The air condition gave up just last year. I t runs so very fine on the highway that's why I like it. I guess it all depends on the way you use and maintain your vehicle. This just to prove you wrong i can show mine and it's still running good and amazing on fuel economy after 14 years.

Hyundais and Kias have gotten a lot better over the years. Just be careful buying a used one. In my personal experience as a mechanic, Korean cars seem to be abused and neglected by their owners more than others. It amazed me how reluctant Kia owners were to even change their oil at all. Must be due to the lower base price attracting people with less money

@TSUTENKAKU007 5 жыл бұрын

This is very true in my city as many of low income people buy these brands, majority of them are middle ages. They don't seem to care if this is one of the cheapest brands or not, just don't want to pay nickle more and many of them are banged up. So it all falls down to basically one thing: It all depends on how people take care their vehicles.

When a company gives you a 10 year 100,000 mile powertrain warranty, that says something positive to me. I remember when Ford and Chrysler went from a 7 yr/ 70,000 mile warranty down to a 3 year/ 36,000 mile warranty, the transmission clutches and A/C systems and other things were made a lot cheaper and broke down more frequently. I worked at a Ford dealership, had a lot of problems with my Ranger. I Bought a Tacoma and never had so much as a rattle or squeak in 75,000 miles when I sold it. Toyota makes a great product. I bought the KIA because it was cheap. I hate the name though and I bet most veterans do as well (KIA, Killed In Action).

Cars today last way longer than old cars, nobody seems too notice that, yeah the Kia probably won't last that long because it would 700,000+ miles on it.

My only experience with kia is my grandfather's 2003 Optima EX. While he didn't drive it like a maniac, he was no slouch. I did all the work on it from the time it was new, at the specified intervals, with OEM parts. The only problem it ever had over 300k miles of road trips and daily driving was the intake boot tore behind the MAF. Easy fix. He sold it because he wanted a bolt. The person who bought it still has me do all the work like I did before and it is still running strong at 350k. Grandpa said it's the most reliable car he ever owned in all his 84 years
