Bought a used 2010 Kia Forte with about 80k miles back in
Bought a used 2010 Kia Forte with about 80k miles back in 2017. This was my first car and boy was it reliable. It was pretty good on gas and it was no sports car, but it had just enough power to get up and go on the highway. It did have an unusual ticking noise coming from the engine since the day I purchased it but it still ran normal. We made it through some extreme winters and summers and it never left me stranded. I owned the car for almost 7 years and never had any major issues up until recently. I was able to make it to about 198k miles before the engine crapped out. Overall, I loved this little car and would recommend it to any first time drivers.

Have to replace control panel for 1 broken knob
I am blessed that someone gave me my 2010 Kia Forte. It has been a great car up until the fan control knob broke. I was thinking, just take the knob off and use vice grips to work the fan. ( everything else works great) But, no, the whole control panel has to be replaced. For ONE broken knob! This was a dumb design. I took it to my local Kia dealer, and was told it would be approximately $500(parts and labor) to fix it. I don't have that kind of money, and because I am on disability, won't be able to for months. I know it an older model car, and I appreciate having it, but if I ever get to the time when I have to replace it, I won't get another Kia. I hope that the newer Kias have better designed controls for the environment panel. Replacing everything for one knob is nuts.

Good all around car w lots of features
Very comfortable at 6’1 Just a really well thought out and built car. I have sold my first 2010 Kia as it was an extra car, I’ve just purchased another, that’s how much I like it.

Most reliable car I ever owned.
I was hesitant to buy a car made outside of the US, but the 10 year warranty made me visit the dealership, after the test drive and looking at all the features and price, I had to take it home.
