STEERING PROBLEMS

Purchased this car used - have had two weeks and am having steering problems. The car refuses to travel in a straight line - the nose of the car wanders back and forth requiring constant steering corrections. Just did research on the web and discovered that this is a COMMON PROBLEM with Optima's from the 2011 - 2014 range. Contacted the dealership and they can't get me a service appointment until a week from now. I am so disappointed - this is my third Kia and I feel like I've bought myself a headache UPDATE TO ORIGINAL REVIEW - Three weeks after purchase, we had an accident with this car (which had nothing to do with the steering problems) - I have raised my overall review of the car, as it performed well in the crash and kept my family from being seriously injured

Make sure about the Title, and whether there is any carry over warranty.

The inside is roomy, and comfortable. The car warms up quickly. I have yet to take it on longer then a 1 hour drive, but my commute is 30 minutes and I am quite impressed in how comfortable it is. Dealer was excellent. Is a car I love to drive. My gas mileage is good for the size, just under 26 mpg combined. I have to wonder how people are driving that complain about low gas mileage. It is NOT a hybrid, small economy car. It is a mid sized vehicle, comfortably seats 5 and has lots of room. The "no spare tire" complaint to me-well the sealant and pump i like better then being out in the cold and rain changing a tire to a donut..been there, down that. I think this is a better setup.

Kia optima 2013 compressor went out after just a yr and a half. Under warranty, so they took care of it. BUT....IT WAS A REFURBISHED PART with a 12 Month warranty . It Just went out again after 18 months and of course it's out of warranty! My issue here is...the car is 3 and a half yrs old and has gone through 2 compressors! Does anyone else see my concern? Because Kia does Not! I have bought 2 brand new Cars from them...there will NOT be a third!
