2007 Kia Rio consumer reviews

It's a car, that's about it. It'll get you from point a to point b, but don't expect much more from it. You'll have problems crop up at every corner but you can turn up the radio and ignore the grinding under your hood and be fine for a few hundred miles. Everything in the interior is built to last just long enough to drive it out of whatever hole you found it in. If you expose this car to any temperature above 80° your dashboard, steering wheel, and shifter will get unbelievably sticky and fall apart at the smallest amount of pressure. If you just need a vehicle, this will do the trick, but don't expect it to do anything more than get you there.

The best car i have ever owned!!! Key is to take care of it. Do what is recommended for routine maintenance. Excellent on gas!!!! Change that timing belt every 100,000 miles!!! Love my ride and it’s paid off!!! Sweet!!!

I love my Kia Rio. It is a bare bones basic model with power nothing! I even have crank windows! It isn’t pretty, she has a dent underneath the drivers door, and just recently, it was backed into by my neighbor. She hit it hard and smashed in my drivers side fender, so every time you turn the wheel left the liner which is also broken rubs the tire. Thankfully the hat is plastic. My door is bent and does not fully open. The insurance company totaled it, but I took it back and we order d a new fender and liner. I will replace the door later. I just in the last year had to replace my waterpump, catalytic converter, o2 sensor and one other sensor. It only has 137,0000 miles and I own it outright and not ready for another car payment.

i would never buy a kia again this car stalled out on my way to the wiisconsin dells had to have it towed back and cost me 300 dollars and had tuneup up down on it before ii left and the car boggs and stutters going done the road what a piece of scrap metall and only had 95,000 miles on it i would nnever ever buy a rio or even if i

We bought this car used in 2009 with about 30k miles on it. We had had it for ten years with over 130k miles on it and only now have to part with it! My husband got into an accident about a week ago and totaled the car, but came out of it unhurt. This was his commuter car and other than routine maintenance (tires, belts, brakes, alternator, starter) it was a good little car that even handled well in the New England winters with regular tires!

Awesome car that has a zip and go to it. Gas mileage is amazing. The only issue I have had with it, is you need to push the gas pedal down after you fill up with gas. Other than that this car is perfect.

Great drive every day comfort ride, excellent sound insulation, soft ride with great damp shock absorber, reliable no problem just start and run, very good fuel efficiency on highway not so good in city.

owned car for 6 years .. great service .. sold to my son 2 years ago & he runs it constantly with minimum repair .. he says when its goes he will buy a new KIA...

This car has exceeded my expectations in all aspects. The look, comfort, and reliability of this car is outstanding.

I bought my Rio 5 speed manual used with 56000 miles and was the third owner. My Rio has close to 80000 miles and I have replaced two coils, plugs, and have done regular maintenance oil changes etc. and this car gives me well over 30 mph . Granted it does not have the power to climb hills with passengers in the vehicle, but it is a great commuter car. The passenger interior door knob keeps falling off and that is probably the biggest problem I had on the interior.
