Used Kia Optima for Sale in Durham, NC

At first I liked this car. But now that we are actively dealing with an engine recall due to them catching fire, I am beyond disappointed. Corporate and the dealership have been a nightmare to deal with. We have had previous issues with the A/C and gas while under warranty. Have receipts totaling 18 visits for these issues. They only admitted there were issues after we were 20 miles out of warranty. Very shady and unsafe business practices. Never buy a Kia.

I've had this car, as second owner, for three years. It has never been a problem. All I've done is replace the brakes and tires. It's still got less than 35K miles, but so far this is the best around-the-town car I've ever had. It is surprisingly fun to drive, handles great. I don't get the mileage I thought it would get - seems like I fill up a little too often. At about 30, I can feel the gear shift. There is absolutely no style to this car - it is super generic. These things don't detract from how good the Optima is.
