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

    Got a call from Kia consumer affairs this weekend... They seem to have determined that sunset yellow is faulty and have presented options to me to deal with it. The options are pretty good so if you have sunset yellow and it's coming, definitely get consumer affairs involved. Sent from my Pixel...

    Glad you got your dealership to repair it. Mine won't touch it until Kia corporate gives the go ahead. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

    Who is considering purchasing a KIA for the first time because of the Stinger?

    365 ho, 376 lb-tq. Kia claimed 0 to 60 time in 4.7 seconds. I honestly believe it's a little faster than that, real world. That's based on my butt dyno, not measured with instruments. Phenomenal upgrade! Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

    I have the limited edition Sunset yellow awd. It came with the 19s while the other AWD ones came with 18s. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

    Love my Stinger GT2 but have concerns about the car when on twisty back mountin roads

    Hmm, I have a base GT and I don't think I have the adaptive suspension equipped. The suspension feels the same to me in both comfort and sport. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

    Love my Stinger GT2 but have concerns about the car when on twisty back mountin roads

    I suppose the experiences you've had with your GT are different than with mine. I have AWD on the staggered 19's. Never experienced the tail going out under throttle in sport mode at low speeds and I feel that comfort and sport modes are vastly different. I can't say that I share the opinions...

    Love my Stinger GT2 but have concerns about the car when on twisty back mountin roads

    For a 35k dollar car, the base GT works wonderfully for me. All expectations met. I came from an A5 and I felt so if the Stinger handles better as a GT car than there A5. I wouldn't really change much about the suspension, I'm satisfied. I also don't hear any creaks in my car. It feels very...

    More than likely you'll be dealing with Kia of Korea as the warranty claim will most likely be high. At the very least it'll be kia of America. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

    This is all great information. It was as I initially suspect, bad painting process. I hope they provide a legitimate fix for this issue... Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

    I think clear bras were a dealer add on? Some dealers might throw that in as a port installed option to pad profits. I'm giving Kia a chance before I go any other route. They've already shown good faith by starting an investigation into it. Hopefully I'll hear good news from the issue...

    I've made a claim with Kia. I got a call from their main representative and he said they had a customer's car in for investigation. He gave a few weeks time for their findings to come out. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

    New car with problems

    The more I look at the hood, the more apparent it becomes... The hood is a different color from the rest of the car. I don't think it was finished painting from the factory... Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

    New car with problems

    Pointed out some of them. It's only on the hood and nowhere else. The service manager claimed it's rock chips because he saw some chips in the windshield. I only saw bug strikes on the windshield so I have no idea what he's talking about. I'm calling the special stinger hotline in a few days to...

    New car with problems

    The paint on the hood of my sunset yellow GT is apparently peeling away. I thought maybe it was rock chips, but nope, there are no rock chips anywhere else. The yellow paint is being away as small spots and expanding over time. Getting it checked out by the dealer. Just weird that there are no...

    Question Regarding Stinger Offer

    Oh boy. I have an AWD GT, the least desired of the sunset yellows! Haha I think it has to do with specific region. I think the AWD ones will do well in the North East where I am. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

    Question Regarding Stinger Offer

    What's your opinion on how the market will respond to the limited edition Sunset yellow? I wonder if all 500 have been sold it if there's still plenty left. Hope I didn't lose more value just by getting an undesirable color. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk
