A Review of My Kia Sedan Experience - Turbotax Review 2016

As I sit down to write this review, I am still trying to process my mixed emotions about my Kia sedan experience. On one hand, the automatic emergency breaking system worked wonders during a near-accident incident when the sensors and tires came together to avoid an accident by allowing me to steer smoothly even on wet surfaces.

On the other hand, I was disappointed with the suspension of the car, which didn't allow me to fully utilize the Michelin tires on curves. The numb and stiff feeling made it difficult for me to park correctly, as I often found myself without any steering feedback whatsoever. Despite the initial issues, my SX Turbo with tech package cost a whopping $32,000, including tax and fees.

My main gripe at first was with the steering, which didn't live up to my expectations. As a demanding customer who has previously owned Toyotas, I was used to excellent build quality and functioning cars. However, my experience with KIA was different. After purchasing the car, I began to notice several issues that arose from 50,000 miles of highway driving. These included weld defects, faulty headlights, A/C control problems, an electric folding mirror malfunction, and transmission shifter issues.

To make matters worse, when I took my car in for warranty work, I was appalled by the incompetence of the dealership mechanics. They failed to diagnose properly, and it took me calling KIA corporate to get the issue resolved. It turned out that there were defective welds in the rear of the vehicle, which was a major concern.

Overall, while the automatic emergency breaking system worked well, my experience with the Kia sedan was marred by several issues, including poor suspension, faulty mechanics, and warranty work nightmares. If you're considering purchasing a KIA, I would caution you to be aware of these potential problems before making your decision.
