Sucks

I purchased a Kia 2022 Kia seltos which I just sold it is June 2023. It ran out of oil with out the oil light going on. Did my oil changes just like it was recommended. I was lucky enough to to about this because I had a Sorento which did the same thing. I’m done with Kia just invested in a Honda. I’m writing this so people to be aware I’m a single parent work hard. I’m goung to sruggle to pat this loan but I know I’m better off.

Great car but does have issues

I am a huge KIA fan and have all of my kids driving different models. My wife wanted the 2021 KIA Seltos so we went and purchased the EX model. Great interior, gas mileage and overall space. The downside is the stereo and wireless set up. We have had nothing but problems since we bought it and the response is they have to wait for more people to have issues even though I provided video and photos. Instead of a wired CarPlay like most other manufactures, they decided to go Bluetooth only. Even though the car has 2 USB ports, they pretty much are just charging ports. Our phone calls get kicked out of the system all the time, can’t see the maps and issues with music freezing and then the system starts over. They should have given the option to do either wired or Bluetooth but they did not. The other issues is that to go to the next song using your steering wheel buttons, you have to go down instead of up. Not sure why but the dealership said that is how their newer models all are for K5, Stinger, sportage and Seltos. For a company that is trying to showcase luxury, they did miss the boat on this one.

Awesome car drives like a dream. My SUV is smaller but room for all. Great features. So happy with our choice. Awesome moon night blue.

More time in the shop than driving.

Had my seltos since may of 2020. Not only has it had more recalls than I can count, spent 6 months in the shop and I will be having to drop it off again for a piston issue as well as a leak. This thing literally has 5000 miles on it because I can hardly drive it. Do yourself a favor and stay away from the seltos

Enchanting Starlight!

First, it is eye catching and stunning to look at! My SX-Turbo is starlight yellow and black and the compliments are amazing! It stands out from any other small SUV out there. It is fully loaded and under $30K, with every safety and infotainment features. The interior room compares size wise to the CX-5 with double the amount of storage as my Mazda CX-3! It is fun to drive! My salesman,Frank M., at Smithtown Kia was awesome in finding the one I was looking for. So happy we bought this car! Absolutely love, love it!
