My wife came with an 06 Kia Optima, it has been nothing but trouble:
-cheap paint that flakes off if you press down too hard while washing
-the front bumber has been losing paint for the past two years, not covered under warrantee
-horrible quality, everything inside rattles all the time, even on flat smooth pavement
-the radio never works
-any time we have made a warranty claim, we have been told the broken part isn't covered under warrantee, dealership always jerking us around
-I don't fit in it, the seat design hurts my back and right leg after about an hour of driving it
-no power whatsoever, try and pass a semi on the highway and it really struggles
-mileage sucks! we get 32 higway, 25 city and we are not hard on it, easy acceleration and a light right foot
-front suspension requires replacement about every 20,000 miles. Not covered under warrantee.
Bottom line, Please DO NOT buy a kia!!!
