2019 Kia Forte consumer reviews

Bought brand new 2019 before it hit 2000 miles cluster went out its now barely at 40,000 miles and something electrical is going on the ac heat auto for the lights and water in the rear light and a clicking noise when I turn it off now yes this vehicle has been so well taken care of Kia has begged me several times to upgrade and sell them this one even offered to pay it off and give me $5k over towards a new vehicle nope I just want it fixed

I have had two Kia forte vehicles and have had issues with the head lights going out all the time . I’ve had to have my headlight replaced more than 4 times in one month. My Kia 2017 had the same problem with rear light and front light.

I bought my 2019 KIA Forte brand new and my engine seized at 112,500 with no warning at all. My engine was always serviced on time only using full synthetic oil. This was a total shock!!!! You can search for yourself and you would see that this is an ongoing problem with this car, buyer beware!

Excellent so far. We bought it over the summer about six months ago as a returned lease car. It is very peppy. I commute a distance for work. Hwy milage with no traffic is about 47 mph with quality gas and driving 60mph. It's our only car, it's used for everything. It's a little small up front. Interior is very nice. Exterior is superb and sporty. The most value I have ever seen. I'm coming from a 2005 unreliable Chevy cobalt. So this is like heaven. The controls are big and clear. The heater is HOT. Only 2 small issues....the front collision warning comes on a lot which they can't fix ( no biggie) and the wiper blades can't pull up to change, they don't fit the hood area amount of room. Again, surprised no engineer never caught this but no biggie. The dealer I used turned out to be untrustworthy but the car itself is a 9 out of 10.

The only complaint I would have about this car is the ride. Kind of stiff no matter what mode it’s in. Other than that, I love it.

Got this car used as a certified pre owned and have had no issues except it needed a jump start one day. Most likely due to it having a refurbished battery inside. Inside interior is decent but not amazing it's just all plastic. Seats are comfortable but you get what you pay for. Back up camera is good quality and display screen is as well, pretty nice size. The heat and ac is Allright I've had better in other cars. The exterior is probably the best this car has overall. It's pretty nice if car is detailed and cleaned up. Comes with alloy wheels with 4 disk brakes which is a very nice addition. The transmissions is very nice as well as you won't feel the jerk when it shifts gears. Car is also pretty zippy and most cars don't speed up as fast as this one does. Overall it's a pretty good car for its price. I'd recommend it over every other car manufacturer besides Honda.

Drivers Village Kia What a xxxxty experience I have been having. I leased a 2019 Kia Forte, for 2 years now. From day one the electronic UVO system has not worked, I have been to the dealer at least 10 times leaving the car for days. Just to be told we don’t know how to fix it. Let’s see, THEN SEND IT BACK TO THE xxxx MANUFACTURER THEN AND GIVE ME ANOTHER KIA, ITS THAT xxxx SIMPLE!!!

I love the look and feel of my 2019 Forte, I real enjoy the seating and the leg room. I have a small Family, and actually rode in the back seat of my car last week. my wife was driving and we picked up my mom to take her shopping and let her up front. it was a great fit @ 5'11" I had a lot of room in the back and I was comfortable. The trunk space is huge for this size car and it's great for when I need to pick up pool chemicals and grocery shopping. more importantly I love the color.

This car exceeded my overall expectation of what it exactly looks like and handles. It is fun to drive and very exceptional on gas mileage.

This car is very comfortable to drive and sit in. I realy love my kia's. They are very reliable and reasonably priced to boot! You cannot ask for a better car.
