When I purchased my 2016 Kia forte from fucillos car
When I purchased my 2016 Kia forte from fucillos car dealership in Amsterdam NY I was never informed certain recalls and anti theft that my car insurance raised immensely because of that vehicle. I’ve been stuck paying outrageous insurance premiums and just found out why. Can’t afford another vehicle . - Purchased a Used car

Purchased new 2016 Forte Five.
Purchased new 2016 Forte Five. I've had one problem with air conditioning in 2020. Dealership ordered part, in 10 days fixed. Under warranty, I paid nothing! Runs great! Oil changed regularly. Put new brake pads on all around at 45,000 miles. New Micheline tires! Really improved handling. Only 64,000 Mike's on currently. Did have to replace battery in 2022. Was over 5 years old. Great mileage! Plan on driving several years down the road! - Does recommend

Kia hiding defects
Apparently this year (2016) model has the same engine defect as the 2015 models. It is burning oil and constantly stalls. The Kia dealerships refuse to even bring up the issue, they just say $5,000 for a new engine right away as if they know what the issue is right off the bat. The car started having this issue at about 120,000 miles and it did receive regular maintenance. - Purchased a New car

Very sporty looking
This vehicle looks very good. The interior is comfortable and stylish. Aluminum rims, back up camera, a nice big windshield. It is easy to maneuver . The 5th door (Hatchback) is great and if you want to load items from shopping, gardening, or little house projects, thia car has plenty room because the back seats fold down to either one big atea or you can divide the seats for a smaller loading area. The forte is also very good in gas mileage. If you like to put a little spunk on it, the kia forte is also fast, like a small sports car. Overall, pretty good for a small vehicle. - Purchased a New car
