Don't, Just Don't - VM1993
I shouldn't even have given this a 1 star, but it was the least you could've given them here. I bought a KIA Forte 2010 in November 2016 with 29,500 KM. This car looked like it was kept in good condition, and the sales agent was desperate to make a sale so he gave a "decent" price for it (9k, even though it's worth about 4.5k, but that's a whole other story). The salesperson confirmed that everything was replaced on the car as he would not sell me a car with worn out parts (discs, brakes, tires, ball joints all changed and confirmed to 2 family members with me). Three months later, I was required to put 1,900$ extra on this car because the discs hadn't been changed since the car was initially sold in 2010 (they were so rusty and worn out you couldn't even tell what they were), the brakes were completely finished and a danger to the driver, and I had to replace all joints, link kit, and all shocks-- note that I never had an accident with it, and do not drive often; and when I do, it is strictly highway. I was advised that I still needed about 400$ of repairs on it for other problems that a car with 40,000 KM does not have (did they roll back KMs?). I was only given 30 days to bring back the car and it is now worth less than I owe on it so the most I can do is advise fellow citizens to never buy at this dealer as they will sell you just about anything to make even the smallest profit, while you are stuck with the problems after. Do not shop here, please move on to more reputable places that although are still looking to make profit, they will do so in your interest and will not sell you cars that spend more time in a garage than on the road. First and last time I step into that dealership. Thanks KIA!
Note: I acknowledge that this is a used car, but if an agent confirmed that all those pieces were changed, then these shouldn't have broken down in 3 months.
