    Those with paint issues: Would you be okay with Kia repainting your entire car?

    Thats if they offer one. Who knows what options they would offer. But we won't know til we make a big stink enough like Australia did.

    Those with paint issues: Would you be okay with Kia repainting your entire car?

    If they do it correctly and at no cost to me. Then yes. But why should i continue to drive around with failing paint to have to correct myself or possibly be charged for the damages at the lease end inspection just because they didnt want to acknowledge or fix the problem?

    Android auto stopped working?

    Saltee no I have not at the moment. It started after my google and android auto apps updated. Maybe you could try uninstalling the updates on yours. Maybe that would help. Not sure if the dealer may need to do an update to the software if there is one. One issue I find myself having more aside...
