EXTERIOR LIGHTING
I HAVE A 2006 KIA OPTIMA WHICH CURRENTLY HAS 61,960 MILES ON IT. FOR THE PASS 12 MONTHS I HAVE REPLACE A FRONT HEADLIGHT A TOTAL OF 5 TIMES ON BOTH THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE. MY MECHANIC HAS REPLACED THE BULBS FOR ME TWICE SO FAR FREE OF CHARGE. I HAVE ALSO CONTACTED THE KIA DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED THE CAR TO INFORM THEM OF THE ISSUE TO SEE IF MAYBE ITS SOMETHING FAULTY WITH THE CAR OR MAYBE A RECALL THAT I MAY HAVE MISSED. THEY WERE NOT AS HELPFUL OR NICE AS THEY WERE WHEN I SIGNED MY NAME ON HE DOTED LINE. THEY IMMEDIATELY INFORMED ME I NEEDED TO PAY THEM 59.99 BEFORE THEY WOULD EVEN LOOK AT THE CAR !! THE NERVE !! WITH ME HAVING 5 MORE PAYMENTS TO GO, I FEEL I AM GOING TO SEE BE INVESTING IN THIS CAR LONGER THEN NECESSARY. THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AND EVALUATED AS A COURTESY CHECK UP FOR US KIA OPTIMA OWNERS. AGAIN I HAVE REPLACED 5 HEADLIGHT BULBS IN 12 MONTHS !! THIS IS NOT NORMAL, NOR SHOULD ANYONE HAVE TO DEAL WITH THIS ON A CONSISTANT BASES. PLEASE HELP !! *TR

WHEELS
MY WIFE HAD A FLAT TIRE WHEN SHE HAD HELP TO GET IT CHANGED THERE WAS NO SPARE TIRE SO THE PERSON LEFT BECAUSE HE COULD NOT DO ANY THING. THAT LEFT MY WIFE AND MY LITTLE GIRL ALONE ON A ROAD IN THE MIDDLE OF NO WHERE FOR 4 HOURS UNTIL I COULD GET THERE AND PICK THEM UP . I CALLED KIA AND THEY SAID THEY DONT PUT SPARE TIRES IN THERE CARS ANY MORE THE GOVERNMENT SHOULD MAKE THEM PUT THEM IN BECAUSE IT IS DANGEROUS FOR PEOPLE TO BE STRANDED IN MIDDLE OF NO WHERE . WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR NO BODY TOLD ME THERE WAS NO SPARE IN THE 2012 KIA OPTIMA. IF I KNEW I WOULD NOT HAVE BOUGHT IT. *JS
