    New Buyer.... Paint Questions

    No I think most if not all the colors were affected the yellow was the only one that KIA publicly admitted to. I have 2018 early build Aurora Black GT2 AWD and after 5k miles and one year I have just started seeing the paint chipping off my car. I am going to see what KIA will do for me but...

    Who's experienced more than normal paint chips? Share your pictures

    Ugh I feel bad for everyone having paint issues this shouldn't be happening and is unacceptable to me. KIA made an awesome car but it really doesn't make up for bad paint which shouldn't be happening in this day and age.

    Ceramic will do nothing at all sorry to give you the bad news and I know for sure about that. So save your money the PPF might help a little but would have to cover the entire car. Paint correction would be ongoing for as long as you owned the car.

    The silly thing is that the paint was fine until around 5500 miles and 1 year after purchase so this is very concerning as the problem seems to take time to occur.

    I have a 2018 KIA Stinger GT2 black with red interior with 6000 miles and have found multiple paint chips I am pretty certain these are not normal rock chips. Oh well I am most likely trading it for a Toyota which is going to be miserable but in New England you need paint. There are more showing...

    Lower top speed with all season tires???

    I agree but I never saw any of those disclaimers and it was never explained to me. But that is not the point here other members purchased this car for its performance and then to find out later that it was changed in a permanent way based on a tire option is a bit much in my opinion. It would be...

    Lower top speed with all season tires???

    No I said that the maintenance on the Kia is lower than any German car: "About the only real benefit of the Stinger is that it is a large car and I have three kids so they all fit in the back seat and the maintenance is much cheaper than a German car." I love my car and don't plan to exceed...

    Lower top speed with all season tires???

    In Mass they cannot void the warranty for modifications unless it can be proven that those mods caused the problem. However, that would be a long and expensive fight not worth going through for an owner. I think KIA is not serious about the US market to be honest. I really like my Stinger GT AWD...

    *****2019 US Kia Stinger*****

    As much as I would have loved to have the 360 degree camera and would have liked to wait I also feel that we cannot expect to have no improvements and should be happy because when we eventually get the latest model it will have all the toys we wanted. I do hope though that KIA also offers a 360...
