Kia is Korean slave labor junk! I owned a 2003 Kia Sorento and within 3 years it visited the shop 35 times for MAJOR repairs. The oil was changed no greater than every 4000 miles. They had to gut the motor a few times. Rusting parts. Falty parts.

What Our Members Are Saying about the Brand Reputation of the Volkswagen Touareg
Given the current Dieselgate situation and how it is being handled both by VW and CARB/EPA, not likely to buy another VW. Most likely switch to another brand as long as they sell diesel vehicles.
