 I bought my 2008 Kia Rondo used with 19,000 miles on it...I really liked the car it suited my needs for hauling kids, dogs, kayaks and camping gear...but now at 51k miles the engine has locked up.  I had the car serviced regularly and keep up on oil changes the whole nine.  This is very very disheartening.....I still owe 9800 on the car and the new engine will cost 4800 to replace.  I will never buy a KIA every again!  I will also tell anyone buying a KIA to think again.
