2018 Kia Stinger 4dr Hatch

turbocharged 365hp 3.3L V6 8-speed shiftable automatic RWD

2000 mi There is a problem with some, if not all, KIA Stingers where the audio fades to the back and then stays in that position until manually adjusted. It does not happen all the time and KIA is aware of the problem, but does not have a fix at this time. More annoying than anything, but still a problem that should be resolved.

2018 Kia Stinger 4dr Hatch

turbocharged 365hp 3.3L V6 8-speed shiftable automatic AWD

34000 mi Stereo would cut out after bluetooth calls. known tsb. 
4600 mi The audio system's fader switches all the sound to the far rear and center of the car intermittently every few times when I start the car. It takes me a while to notice that the sounds is off, and then I have to manually change the fader back to my preferred location. King Kia replaced a "head unit" and that seems to have sorted out the issue.
