I purchased the car with 17 miles in Oct 2019. By 6 months I had the car in the service department for the engine light. I didn't get my car back until 5 months later and they had to replace the engine. After I picked it up I notice that there was black marks all over my passenger seat and door. Then in the back there was a huge oil or grease smear on the inner door jam and my back seat. They said that they would take care of that and never did. Then I get home last night and my car wouldn't shift into park. That's after I tried using the override on the gear shift. This car is less then a year old and have had nothing but issues. Corporate has been nothing but horrible with me on my issues and make me feel like this is my fault and they are probably right. It's my fault for purchasing a KIA. Never again will I deal with KIA as long as I live. They can be an adult and take responsibility for their crappy product.
