Have had the Forte EX w/Premium package since April 2013, and like it well enough. It will never be a car I love, and Kia has not won my brand loyalty with this model.
This car is a lot of fun!

I've always owned Kia's and Hyundai's and have never had an issue and this car is no exception. our car is loaded with Bluetooth, satellite radio, rear back up camera and stereo controls on the steering wheel, making this car a fun and comfortable ride on roadtrips! we purchased this car for my wife in July of 2014 and now has 15k in it and have had NO PROBLEMS! i absolutely love it. Now i am in the market myself for a new car and after reading the reviews on the 2014 corolla, 2014 sentra SR, two of the cars i was considering buying, i realized the serious problems these two cars have with their trannys and or other critical components. So at this point i am happily going to stick to kia or hyundai. The only 2 issues i've had with my car so far are just minor interior issues. The car door seal seems like it shrunk with the heat (we live in arizona) and its coming out of place. the other problem is the passanger electric windows switch broke off... both of these issues are nothing compared to problems with the engine!

This car was perfect for the 1st 5 yrs. Took it on long trips, great gas mileage, comfy, but... at 5 yrs the engine went out. Not sure if this was just a bad motor or maybe the engine doesn't last long, have over 68000 miles on it. Even with this I still love Kia. I would suggest it to anyone interested in a medium car with good gas mileage, comfy seats, large truck.

Every luxury feature you want, however these kias are made so cheaply. The plastic scratches so easily, even the paint on steering wheel controls comes off. I guess you'd expect since it is lower price point. Some of my favorite features include: heated steering wheel, cooling seats, dual climate control, steering wheel mode control and the paddle shifters. It is very sporty. Fun to drive and handles so well in snow. Complaints: I do have an engine oil consumption issue. I live somewhere with snow, and due to the angle of the back windshield, every winter my back up camera glitches out until it can dry up, and works perfectly fine again.
