Hey Scotty, was wondering how well Kia has become with their vehicles as their warranty is well backed. I have had two rio's and both were great cars for me with keeping maintenance on them. Thinking about getting a 2021 Kia Forte GT? Auto or Man.? Curious what your opinion is. Toyota is great but weighing options here. Thanks! 😎
I’d recommend you look at the continuous class actions against Hyundai/Kia motor Co. they CANNOT build proper working motors and they use very cheap parts/electronic components. I’d stay absolutely as far away as I could from them.
A proposed settlement of a class action lawsuit known as In re: Hyundai and Kia Engine Litigation, No. 8:17‑cv‑00838‑JLS‑JDE and Flaherty v. Hyundai Motor Company, et al., No. 18‑cv‑02223 (C.D. Cal.) allege that 2011–2018 and certain 2019 Kia Optima, 2012–2018 and certain 2019 Kia Sorento, and 2011–2018 and certain 2019 Kia Sportage vehicles suffer from a defect that can cause engine seizure, stalling, engine failure, and engine fire, that engine seizure or stalling can be dangerous if experienced, and that some owners and lessees have been improperly denied repairs under the vehicle’s warranty. https://www.kiaenginesettlement.com/
