2013 Kia Rio LX Review
I am so happy with my little Rio!!

I bought my 2013 Kia Rio LX sedan about 9 months ago, and I couldn't be happier. I live in Los Angeles and spend a lot of time in my car. I wanted wanted something stylish, reliable, and economical with enough pep to get up to highway speed quickly and my Kia Rio delivers on all counts. Plus it's a lot of fun to drive. I admit I was surprised at how well it sticks to the road
I went here on 2/20/16 just to get some information on possibly buying a car. I really didn't think I would be leaving the same day with a brand new car! Due to my not so great credit I truly thought that I wouldn't get approved to buy a used car let alone a new one. The process from start to finish was quick with great customer service. I will highly recommend Franklin Kia to my family and friends!

This is a nice-looking, comfortable, well-performing car at a very reasonable price. I have gotten lots of compliments on it, and I really enjoy driving since I got it.
My customer service experience here was beyond amazing, and I came in just for an airbag replacement. Lo and behold I was treated like royalty even with my well loved 12 year old CR-v hoopty with over 100000 miles. I was in 30 minutes early for the appointment and they got started anyway. My kid was thrilled with all the snacks and free WiFi and the young lady who took care of me was SO nice. I'll be back to this dealership for my high mileage inspection. You can't beat the free car wash they give everyone either. 💯
2016 Kia Rio LX Review
2016 Kia Rio LX - I call it "My little death trap"

I purchased the vehicle in September 2017. Everything was great till I had the oil changed. Then the anti-skid and power steering light comes on, that is when the power steering goes out. It can't be reset unless it is powered off and restarted. I reported it to Kia corporate and have a claim number. After research the Kia Sorento and Optima has the same problem back to 2012. Quick search pulled up this problem with no recall. I spoke with several mechanics, they all told me the same thing. "I won't be able to make a diagnosis till it does it". That would be difficult considering it is so sporadic when it does it. I will be driving down the road, doesn't matter if it's been raining or a nice day - the lights come on any given moment and your power steering is gone! I would get another vehicle, but I'm in an upside down contract paying $427 a month for approximately 3 more years!😓

This car is perfectly fine in every way I needed except for one minor fix that I would like to ask for future models, the car is just too low to the ground. I am no expert by any means, just use the car to get from point A to point B, and this car is perfect for me. Other than it being too low to the ground for my road situation in Oklahoma. I use it for main roads mostly, (even those can be rough at times) and I enjoy the freedom that the gas mileage gives me. I would recommend this to any first time or even competent understandering drivers who need a cheap reliable car for at least a few years. I had my first Kia for at least 8 years, and it was wrecked as some more elitist drivers would say "beyond repair," but it held up and it required minimum work and cost on my part at the time to keep it running. That'll do Kia, that'll do.
The manual crank windows are not bad if you are taller, I can reach every handle from the drivers seat. The 6spd trans is really good too! I can average 33mpg if I drive the speed limit.
This was my first car buying experience, on my own. I was quite apprehensive, as I had heard horror stories about people being pressured to buy what they really didn't want by pushy salesmen. Ben Auert was friendly, professional, and patient. He took his time and made sure that I understand every part of the car buying process. At no time did I feel pressured or bullied. Ben even took the time to help me get the bluetooth/UVO app set up in my car. I now have a my first new car, a 2019 Kia Soul, and I couldn't be more pleased! Thank you Ben and Universal Kia!!!
2016 Kia Rio LX Review
I really like the car

Like it, I also like the fact that the side mirrors will just swivel around if hit going forward, rather than breaking. They can then just be turned back by hand.
They are reliable and gas they’re good cars some wrong is it good air condition good music to save on gas I would like to another one because they are good cars to have
This car is great on gas! Definitely a perfect fit for my little family. We only have the one vehicle and it is perfect for both of us commuting to work and great with our son for everyday driving.
I purchased my car from a certified pre-owned Kia dealership in the beginning of 2016. This was my 2nd Kia Rio and was very excited to be getting into a gently used one that had very low miles.
The lx does not come with cruise control AND a temperature gauge.
Long story short my Rio blew a head gasket due to a faulty water pump, it wasn’t showing any signs of over heating and no lights came on. I have had done regular maintence at my local Kia dealer and no one has said a word.
I did in fact replace the engine and also put in an after market gauge and thermostat in to ensure I can see if my car is ever over heating!
Trust me, if you ever see your thermostat sensor “idiot light” come on the damage as already been done. The fact this isn’t a recall is absurd.
I’m definitely not pleased with the vehicle but other then Kia cheating out on a temperature gauge it was a nice car, very spacious while also being appealing to the eye and being great on gas (372 miles highest fuel range I’ve ever seen in my dash).
Don’t think by spending less on a car that you’ll be spending less in the long run. My next car will definitely not be a Kia.
We use music city Honda service department frequently as we own several Hondas.

Enjoyed the courtesy van for the first time Extended warranty process handled by the team! Thank you Ronnie and music city Honda.

Most economic vehicle I have ownerd.

Small economic vehicle, sharp looking interior & exterior, easy access to controls, seats are not that comfortable for trips longer than an hour. After market lumbar support and seat cushion has helped some.
