Faulty Kia
I was sold this vehicle with faulty airbags. Faulty brakes and faulty engine. There was a recall kn this car and i have never been notified.
No trouble to report...
I bought my 2013 Kia Forte SX 5 door hatchback as a Used car with 95,000 miles from a Kia dealership in 2019. This car is fun to drive and handles great. No mechanical problems. This car has every option available and they all work. I've owned and love Toyota's, but Kia's quality is right up there.
I'm very happy with this car.
The car has plenty of power and drives nicely. It's reliable and has everything I need. Everything works well. I would consider buying another Forte in the future.
This really is the most reliable car I've owned. I
This car is the best decision I've made in a long time. Fits great in tight parking spaces but my car is not too small. It has plenty of speed!!! Lots of room for my grandchildren. I cant say enough about this car. I'm so happy I bought my Forte!
Very reliable and comforting on the inside!
I love the sunglasses holder on the inside. Perfect perk as I broke many glasses in my last car. Drives very smoothly and I feel grounded in it.
I fell in love with Kia
I loved my Kia! It had a lot of her up and go. Mine was black on the inside and out which I loved. The all weather mat in the trunk, touch button bend in mirrors and steering wheel controls were nice bonus features.. I drove it with 2 car seats in the back and it was just enough room. Absolutely great on gas. After I got my Kia 2 of my sisters went with Kia as well!
Not Reliable
I was driving home when I noticed a loud knock from the engine,my car decreased in speed,and came to a stop of the shoulder of the road.I had the car towed to where I purchased it from and they confirmed the engine had seized.The car was regularly maintained,had oil changed every 3k miles.The car had 131k miles at the time.I had the motor rebuilt for 6k,four months later it started leaking oil,the dealership decided to put a new motor in.
Good car for a high school kid going to college
This car is great on gas mileage and also in acceleration. Clean interior and spacious. The engine was in good shape and no accidents. Milage was low
