| Description of the problem | The paint on my pearl white kia sorento is falling off. I contacted the kia dealership in mobile, al where i purchased it from the service manager came outside took pictures and never contacted me. I called and called and he never returned my calls. I also contacted kia corporate and was given a case# 13187397. Noone ever returned my calls. I paid over $700 to have my car painted myself and the paint started to peel off again in less than 90 days. The store repainted to faulty areas at no charge. This is ridiculous. |
