"The key fobs are flaky and use batteries like no tomorrow. The electronic locks where finally replaced on the car this past Fall after dealing with issue with them since purchasing the car 6 years ago. Now, the rear lift gate does not lock and will open even if the doors are locked but the panic alarm will go off. The key fobs were supposed to be replaced but at the last second, Kia denied their replacement and wanted to charge us full price for a warranty item"

"keyless entry periodically stops working. Thankfully, there is a way to override, but it's inconvenient"

"The remote start system is a factory installed third party system built by Audiovox. It was a part of the keyless entry system that failed with the electronic keyless locks. When the locks failed to work by key fob, the car would not start and had t be towed to the dealership to be repaired. If you were to use the manual key lock on the driver's side door, the panic alarm would go off and disable the car. The manual key lock on this vehicle is absolutely useless and cannot be used at any tim"

"The rear dome light does not work most of the time. If I remove the bulb and reinstall it, it will work once, and then not again"

"Ball joints should not fail at 100000 units are too small for the weight class"

"Upper shock mounts bind when you turn the vehicle so loud grinding noise. Kia acknowledges the problem and has redesigned the connection and recommend that it be replaced, but not as a recall item. Cost about $400 dollars to have done is an excess burden for a design problem!"

"Had to replace the struts on the front. Kia had paid for only one under warranty and I had to subsequently replace the second strut shortly after the warranty ran out even though it had been 'sweating ' prior"

"My right front strut was bad and was replaced under warranty. I was told they were both leaking but only the right one was bad enough to replace under warranty. The dealer worked with me to replace the left one at cost of part"

(I've been an auto mechanic for over 50 years) - It lasts about 30 seconds. Dealer made a repair but it only worked for less than a thousand miles. Since I have such low milage I'm afarid the motor is going to have to be replaced after warentee runs out... Also the back seats lock and it's been fix by the dealer but I sti"
