Great little car

I saw the car I have now at the used car lot that is located behind my house and felt that it fit my personality. I got it for a great price and it just the right size for me, after driving my Mom’s station wagon. The pickup is great and the color of the car (which is blue) and the technology located inside is cool! I really like the remote opener.

I haven't had any major problems yet. It's a noisy ride. Tire pressure system & check engine lights keep coming on but I'm told no problem. Biggest headache is it's constantly low on oil, I have to check every two weeks and it"s usually low. Mechanic says it's an issue with these cars.

We are very pleased with our new car. We really had a nice experience at cowboy kia in conroe. Our sales person was very helpful in selecting the right car.

My daughter recently bought a Kia Rio. After a blowout (sidewall), we were shocked to find out there was no spare and no jack! There was a silly little pump and some compound that is supposed to fix flats! But not sidewall damage - the most common damage to modern radial tires! Furthermore, the salesman at Courtesy Kia (Henderson, NV) never informed her that there was no spare! And if that is not enough, it took here over an hour to navigate the phone maze and get in touch with roadside assistance to told to "go buy an new tire and we'll come and put it on! What a rip off and quite dangerous! We live in Nevada and if you get stranded on some lonely road in the summer, you could die!
Bad Customer Service and Bad Manual Transmission
