Bought used worth every dime
My cousin began selling KIA autos , we needed a vehicle so I called him. I'm so glad I did we bought a 2013 optima . In the past we've owned Mercedes E series and BMW 5 and 7 series. The Optima is better equipped as comfortable and don't take My word for it the KIA brand has one of the highest quality ratings across the entire model line of most high production vehicles. The optima is my wife's car I'm on the lookout for a used K900🇱🇷

Engine Problem
So i bought my 2013 Kia Opitma in October of 2013 and I just had to replace my engine this month. Took it to two different dealers and they couldnt diagnose the problem. Finally went to a dealer that could and they told me I needed a new engine. The car isnt even 6 months old and has about 10000 miles on it. Its a great looking car and fun to drive on the weekends. Customer service could be a lot better and helpful.
nice
Best investment I have4 made in a long time.
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.
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!!!
