 Detailed review:

I bought my Kia used almost 3 years ago and it was by far the worst investment I have ever made. The car was fine for the first couple of months then it started having problems with the -emission control system; -fuel distribution; -camshaft position sensor; -wheel bearings (which i might add that after they fixed 2 of them, one of them went out on me on the INTERSTATE one day!!!); -tons of recalls; -check engine light; -seatbelt light and my car is still in the shop today 3/30/05 after they said they fixed it but i proved them wrong!!!! They erased the code that turned off the check engine light and just hoped it wouldnt come on again!!!! I have new everything on that car and it continues to mess up!
