Used 2021 Kia Forte Consumer Reviews
Great ride
This cars is amazing. For all the features that it has for a newer sportier car you won’t complain much about this. The newer models are nice too but this one won’t disappoint you at all. With the DCT, slowing down you’ll feel the shifts and they’re rather rough feeling slowing down. Nothing terrible, nothing too crazy fast or anything but if you’re looking to upgrade just have a have more of a sporty ride, definitely recommend this. And the cold starts are the absolute best feature:) *give it a little gas under 2000 rpm and she’ll give you a nice pop when she’s cold!

Maneuverability suckd
This car comes with lots of good features but when push comes to shove in a moment of crisis this car just doesn’t have it as I learned recent while attempting to avoid anothervehicle. The crash avoidance which goes off constantly failed to at this time. I am glad I no longer carry familly, get something with a bit more handling over looks and features
Standard Equipment
Remote Start should be standard equip. What if the doors are frozen shut? My GT-Line also does not have key start yet the remote has a hidden key inside.

Sales folks don't inform you about lack of spare!!
Learned at pickup that the vehicle doesn't even come with a (spare/donut) tire. Ridiculous. The documention handbook for the vehicle references that spare and Jack kit are in the trunk but no such thing. IMO a Spare kit is a SAFETY feature and consumers should be informed if this is now excluded from the PRODUCT so they can choose whether or not to mitigate the risk( order or negotiate the spares/kit). After 400 miles my son hit a curb while parking and it punctured the side wall( FLAT). What a nightmare it became to resolve this issue- had to purchase a jack, a new matching tire and then take the New tire and flat/rim to as Service station( leaving the car up on the jack ( alternative was to tow it (flat truck as there is no rear tow points) and it was the rear tire? but that too would have been a nightmare and more then likely much more expensive to solve . At any rate having a donut spare and jack kit n the car made the experience much less stressful.
