Used 2013 Kia Optima Sedan Consumer Reviews
Mileage Claims
Don't know how heavy footed some of the reviewers are, but I'm averaging about 32.5mpg combined. My commute is 35 miles each way, about 1/3 suburban, 1/3 highway and 1/3 city. I regularly use cruise control on the highway, but do not use the ECO control (doesn't seem to help). I used to use my wife's Grand Cherokee on the weekends when I had my Honda Civic, but this one is too comfortable to give up on those 2 days.
Love my baby STILL!
Overall this has been a fantastic car! I absolutely love it and the look of it. I had three minor problems but nothing too pricey and they covered one of them. First off my handle fell off about a year into having the far. They put it back on free of change. I don’t blame them or the car, stuff happens, no big deal. The other two issues I believe were due to the fact that I had to park my car outside in the sun for a few years and it never got shade. The rear view mirror fell off and the door tape started bubbling. Again it’s still a fantastic car and probably my fault. Love this car and I’ve had it for almost 8 years!
From Mercedes to Kia no turning back!

warranty? Not so much
Before my bumper to bumper warranty was up. I started having issues with my air-conditioning and my passanger side window. I brought it into the dealership ( I needed a oil change anyways) so they said the air-conditioning is working fine and they don't hear any issues with the window. Low and behold the air conditioning is working great and the window is going up and down without any problems. Jump ahead about 4 months and here I am again at the dealership and the air-conditioning is broken along with the window. They confirmed they were both broken and it would cost me about $4,000 to fix and of course I'm now over the 60,000 mile warranty by a thousand miles and is of course no longer under warranty. I find it amazing things start braking down after the warranty is up. Now I get the luxury of driving a car in 100+ heat and I can't even roll the window down. LUCKY ME!!!

2013 Kia Optima LX
Bought this 2013 Optima LX in January 2017 as a Certified Pre-owned with 16,000 miles on it. Just passed 50,ooo. Love the car. Handles great, drives great, looks great. Would definitely buy a Kia again although I'd buy one the Hybrid. But I'd never do business with Tom's River Kia... 1/9/2024...Just passed 82,000.. Never have to buy another car again!!! 😁🤣👍✌️✌️✌️
