 Description of the problemMechanically, technically the vehicle is fine. My problem is there is no spare tire, no even a donut. There is an inflator/tire repair kit but that does no good when one gets a hole in the side of the tire. Kia does have 24 hour free tow to the dealership to rectify the situation, and i believe even motel accommodations in case this occurs on a road trip, but i feel it is still a safety hazard. For example late at night, maybe on the way to work at 4:30 in the morning. Also the sales department(s) do not do a good job in explaining the lack of a spare. It's my understanding some other makes also have the same infiltrator kit to replace the spare. Kia dealers do sell a kit for about 200. 00, maybe 300. 00, my solution is, kia should be required to provide these now at no costs to customers. I found about this the tough way on an out of town trip (between savannah, ga and beaufort, sc)... I am from the orangeburg, sc area, so was about 90 miles from home, on the saturday before christmas (12-19-15)... They did offer to tow me to the kia dealership in savannah, but it would be closed by the time we got there.

    A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
  • What is Failure?

    Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success.
