Since I am considering a Kia for my next car (which I wouldn’t get until next yr), I was looking at info about the Kia/Hyundai engines failures (which apparently are no longer in production and were horrific).
Your car doesn’t use one of the engines known for failing (https://www.hyundainews.com/en-us/releases/3657), but, when you look at reddit, there are lots of post about how difficult it was to get Hyundai/Kia to admit fault. Are those posts representative? I have no idea. All I know is that dealing w/ VW for my current car is really, really different from how it was dealing w/ MB for service issues… (although I found a dealer service station that seems decent w/i the past yr or so; but it’s quite far away).
