God made the fruit. You do realize you're judging God's work. Only an 8 for the watermelon? Wow! JK! Seriously, for those prices, they should have cut the whole melon and let you take it home.
Glad Kia service center was able to resolve your car's noise issue. Your previous trips on the Deuce were really good as i gave it a go to travel from the strip to the Rio and downtown on my last trip to Vegas. looking forward to seeing more of travels in your new Kia.
My 2014Toyota Carolla never have any problem yet. My friend had brand new Kia just died on 4 years. You don’t need a this kind of problems with New car. Just like a dealing with used car. Even it’s a brand new car, No peace of mind.
I'm curious how things continue to work out with your Kia in the future. I like that model & am thinking of buying one. I've always had Toyotas, but $$$.
Congrats on your new car purchase! Have you considered doing your first oil change at 1k just to make sure to remove any metal shavings in the engine? Since the engine/car is new, a lot of people do their first oil change at 1k just to be safe. Then next oil change at 5k, 10k, etc..
Hyundai/Kia had a major recall and class action regarding the theta 2, 1.8 and 2.0 engines. A lot of carbon build up in the gdi engines with metal shavings were found and blew up the motors. Since then they have been getting better build quality. Your rattling noise is most likely a loose trans cable hitting around the foot well area.
My father in law owned a car repair shop and a client brought his new car in because of a noise and the dealership couldn't find it. He had the guy drive him around for a bit and he figured out where the noise was at. He removed the rear door panel and a soda bottle with a note was there. If you found this you didn't go to the dealership.
i had kias for years. had the suv many years ago, loved it, ran it into the ground, force to buy a new kia, loved it and as time went by, i didnt love the changes (looks, etc) so thats when i went to ford, but had issues with all my ford trucks. so far, the chevy colorado pick up is amazing, no issues (knock on wood)
hey, earlier, i saw a thumbnail of you holding up what appeared to be a white t-shirt saying, in the title, “back in vegas from az” but i dont see it now.
You probably got a "deal" by purchasing it through a dealer. You really didn't. They will bring you in for your lifetime oil change and change your oil pump gasket because it's leaking or something else. I call them Stealerships. Someone has to pay for the beautiful facility, "free" coffee and donuts, slick salesmen, managers, and finance team.
Some people do not like kia, and honestly kia have had many people say trash about it over the past decade for all kinds of different issues. but my decision to buy this one is AFTER I done a ton of research into those complaints and not just that those issues exist, the lawsuits exists, but also looked at WHY. So many below have said "shouldn't buy a kia" would apply for anyone who does not do their homework before buying. I am 100% confident that my kia will last a super long time because mine does not have the same stuff that was having all those issues... AND I plan to do PROPER service of it based on the reality of how I drive it. I read the whole owners manual and have a good level of reading comprehension.
I bought a Kia 5 years ago and I feel the same way! I just changed the oil/filter yesterday, and like Scotty says, runs like a clock, shifts like a dream! Toyota can suck it!
I have been beating my Kia Soul callously for over 8 years. Never even slightest snivel. Mine is dead reliable. The dealership is "challenged" though. Good help is so hard to get.
Danny there’s a Buffay called Shady maples smorgasbord it’s in Lancaster Pennsylvania have you ever been there you should do a video on it it’s the biggest buffetI think you should check it out
they outfit cars with the cheapest tires and batterys and everything else. expect those to go wrong danny, better tires might help with the noise but who knows..
the noise was not tire noise, it was something rattling. the tire noise is expected because.. physics.. but battery and tires are consumables and when it comes time, I will replace them.
I used to be obsessed with noises coming from my new cars. I realized that 20k and 30k cars make noises. When you get to 40k and 50k not so much. My current vehicle, an audi, is well built. the hood has 2 latches on it. i expect no noises from a 53k vehicle.
I think you did good with getting a Kia. Don’t listen to the haters who try to make you regret buying a Kia. It’s your money and do what makes you happy.
Im confident I have a good quality vehicle, yeah, factory assembly sometimes happen on a monday, but it has been good since. I did my research before buying
They put a noise cancelling device on your car. 😁 Seriously, I got a 2015 Sorento with 110k miles on it and just some factory recalled problems that they fix and I got 2 or 3 car wash coupons every time I go there for an oil change.👍
