My wife has a 2003 Kia Sorento LX and I want to do a couple of things to it. Where did you get your automatic Kia alarm w/remote start and your in dash dvd/navigational system.

Why have billions when you can have millions?

And when Toyota makes a recall it isn’t just a few thousand, it’s millions.

Toyota tells people to put both feet on the brake and shift into nutrual that will avoid accidents incase your floor mats causes a panic. Makes me think never to buy a Toyota.

We don’t have to hold the button for three seconds to shut the car off. We don’t have to deal with a monthly Ford recall, either.

Yeah well at least we don’t have to worry about floor mats causing accidents.

KIA knows that Sorento has a problem with coolant tank cracking and leaking (just Google it – thousands of hits!) Why does KIA not do the decent thing and issue a recall on those? Why make us spend time and money and, most importantly, potentially ruine engines due to overheating??? My car is 200 miles over 60,000 and the repair is not under warranty…

Another thing–IMPOSSIBLE to change spark plugs ($300+ at dealership)

IMPOSSIBLE to change belts–$800!!! job at dealership.

TPS went out–$300.

Seats cracked, buttons peeled, brake rotors warped… And I take care and mainain cars very well.

Verdict – NEVER buy a KIA! Nothing but problems.

Thanks
