| Description of the problem | Bought our kia borrego and brought it back because we noticed that after its first washing the paint was peeling and that is covered by a warranty.... But was told it must have been something we did. When we took it back for its first oil change, we reported the paint again because not only was it peeling in 1 spot but all over the hood and the doors and body... Manager said it was re[ported to kia but we never heard anything back, was told it would cost over 500 to paint one door... Now having trouble out of the gas tank, it will take one gallon at a time and i am afraid eventually i will run out of gas because i cant force gas in it... Cant get into the dealership for 15 days! |
