We bough this car used in August from a Nissan dealer.
We bough this car used in August from a Nissan dealer. There were some hidden problems that unfortunately the dealer did not disclose right away. Window regulator apparently are a problem with this car as well as engine burning oil prematurely. I performed a two-day cylinder soak and upgraded to a higher quality oil and the oil burning is no longer an issue. Apart from these problems, the car has been great for us. No other issues and the EX version is really loaded (it even has ventilated seats). Multimedia gets slow after being updated, be aware. But updates adds some features like, for example, lowering the fan speed when you get a call or ask to read a message. It is compatible with android auto and apple car play, not wireless but you can get one of those adapters.

The overall purchasing experience was good at McDavid
The overall purchasing experience was good at McDavid Honda Irving, Texas on January 17, 2026. Both the salesperson and the manager (Matthew) were helpful and professional. However, there are two concerns that I have: 1. It takes Honda Financing too long to respond to the Progressive Adjuster so that the settlement pay out can be made to Honda Financing of my 2024 Honda Accord EX. As of January 7, 2026, I was just notified by the Progressive Adjuster that he has just received the required document from Honda Financing after 3 weeks and that he has just sent the settlement check to Honda Financing on January 7, 2026. I am still waiting for my Honda account to be updated online so that I can pay off the remaining balance. 2. During the Financing process of my new 2025 Honda Accord EX-L Hybrid at Honda McDavid Irving, Texas on January 17, 2026, it was absolutely unnecessary for the finance person to repeatedly ask me to purchase extra coverages for my new vehicle. I have counted six times or more that I have to decline or say no to him that I was not interested in purchasing those additional coverages. It is clear and logical that when a customer says no that means a no (I understood that this was part of his job. However, this could be done in a much more professional manner). There is no need to keep repeating himself. This has made the conversation became irritable and unprofessional. This is my third Honda in 3 decades and most of my family members have been driving Hondas for decades. The above unprofessional practice should be reconsidered seriously by Honda Corporate Office for better customer service. Lastly, I certainly hope to hear from Honda representative(s) to contact me regarding these above concerns. Thank you.
Good but not great?
So my car is a 2016 Kia Optima SX 2.0 Turbo GDI. I bought it with just under 60K miles and am just below 85K now. It was burning oil, but once I replaced my pvc or pcv valve ($30 at O'Reilly's), runs like a peach. So uniquely updated and ahead of the game for a 2016. Tough saying if I would recommend it because a quick google search will tell you that the car will probably give out at 150K miles. Transmission is probably the worst I've ever felt but it hasn't given out yet. OEM blow off valve thing is sick.

Best service every, highly recommend dealership.

A great vehicle
Apart from the navigation system not working correctly, there have been no problems in nearly 40000 Km. The mileage on the Hybrid appears to have changed when the system was reprogrammed, the short journey (under 2 Km) economy when new was around 6-6.5 L/100 Km it now runs about 8-9\L/100Km. On longer trips I get the lower figure stated. Is this normal? My opinion of the car otherwise is fantastic, it is comfortable with vivid acceleration good road holding and relaxing to drive.

Great quality and great value
I highly recommend this car for anyone looking for a good quality four-door four-cylinder sedan This 2016 Optima EX outperforms my 1998 Camry LE. Every bit as quiet and it’s actually fun to drive. Starting to lose a slight amount of oil with 85,000 miles on it. Engine was completely replaced and nothing out of pocket under Kia recall.

Carz city was amazing when it came to my car purchase!! I had a trade in and I feel like they gave me top dollar for it!!! I found the vehicle online and they were so easy to work with over the phone and even when I came in person to secure the deal! They had a game area for our kids to be entertained while we did paperwork. They took care of us and went above and beyond! I would definitely recommend them and I would do business with them again!
