| Description of the problem | We are changing the 3rd head light on the drivers side in a month. We had a storm knocking out all street lights and it was hard to see.. Ansmd i keep getting pulled over. I feel like i need to carry a back up. Plus my plastic pos door panels detach and trap my kids in the car.. We have to beat them down so so we can open doors. Oh and we had to cut the gas cover off cause it wouldnt open... And the seats wont go down anymore, hatch wont stay up.. And my blutooth system only works about 20 percent of time! Never again kia! |
