HEY EVERYBODY, IT'S TRUE, KIAS DO SUCK!
I purchased my 2005 KIA RIO in August 2008 with just 18 miles on it. I was only 20 at the time and mainly used it for commuting back and forth to school. At around 30,000 miles, I was backing out a friend's driveway. All of a sudden, when I shifted to drive, the car would not go! I pressed the accelerator all the way to the floor and it still would not move. WTF? This begin the nightmare for me and this car. Although I never became stranded in this car, the following things happened or occurred to me which brought about the conclusion of never buying a kia again:
1. Cheap plastic interior
2. Seats are not stain resistant
3. Door handle broke.
4. Airbags didn't deploy in a car wreck where I impacted at 35 mph.
5. Squeaking belts
6. Fast wearing spark plugs and brakes
7. Deceptive gas mileage
8. I had the radio replaced 3 times.
9. The weakest horsepower of any car on the market.
10. Bad radio reception
11. Bad suspension
12. Front Alignment problems
13. Warped rotors after just changing them recently
The only thing that I could say was good about this car is it had some good speakers, nice bass, and cold A/C. The gas mileage is not really that great. All in all, KIAS SUCK! To anyone who is considering buying a KIA, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please don't buy a KIA. This was easily one of the worst mistakes of my life. The KIA stockholders and corporate management and ownership should be ashamed of designing such an abissmal product. I hope KIA pays for everything they have done to me and everyone else in the world. What a *** joke!

You bought an $8k car that had cheap interior? No way! Did the autopark feature work ok? No problems with the Grey Poupon dispensor?
Suck it up man. You bought a disposable car and that's exactly what you got.
