I think I like it - 2000 Kia Sephia
By s - August 27 - 4:23 pmI mostly like the car, it has some parts and accessories that seem very cheap to me. It is good on gas. Every time I am near time for an oil change, I run through oil a lot. The brakes seem to squeak all the time especially when it rains. I even put new brakes on and it still squeaks, sometimes very loudly. When I first got the car it needed a new blower motor. I had the dealer put in one and there was a problem with it making a lot of noise. They replaced it two more times. Now its been a year and I have to replace the blower motor again.

I wouldnt buy this car if I were you! - 2000 Kia Sephia
By Mel - October 18 - 3:06 pmI have had trouble with it from the start. My transmission went 3 weeks after I bought it. Good thing it was under warranty. So far I have had it for 2 and a half years and the alternator, blower, battery, brakes, wiper motor have all gone at least once some twice. I have to get new tires every 9 months front only due to it cant keep an alignment. Brakes sqeak no matter if they are new or old. Door looks freeze in the winter. Also doesnt handle right in the snow. Right now my car is off the road either due to a blown motor or possibly the catalytic converter. It has been nothing but trouble.

Great Car for the money. - 2000 Kia Sephia
By Barry Reeher - February 20 - 8:56 amThis car has about the same quality level and price performance as the early toyotas did in the early 1980s. I paid 10,335 out the door.

I kind of like mine - 2000 Kia Sephia
By Clayk - February 8 - 10:00 amGranted, the body is cheaply made and the paint is very poor, But I did not expect much for the price. I bought it for disposable transportation. It runs very well, is comfortable adnfairly roomy. I drive the living daylights out of it and it has never given me any problems. i did replace the very bad original tires and spark plug wire, but other than that, I change the oil, put gas in it and go.

money pit - 2000 Kia Sephia
By disappointed - December 13 - 7:16 amI bought this car with 38,000 miles on it. The check engine light came on as soon as the 3 month warranty was up. Ive replaced the transmission and the check engine light was still on as it was after the 3 times I changed the catalytic converter. Doesnt accelerate going uphill and slow merging into traffic. The inside is cheap plastic.

KIMS KIA - 2000 Kia Sephia
By KIM - February 8 - 10:20 pmThe drive and passenger doors power lock freeze up in the winter making it impossible to get in or out of. The car is very light which makes it hard to handle in the snow or ice little to no traction even with winter tires. The fuel economy is great though. This car runs the best in the summer. The car heats up and cools down very quickly never had a problem with the a/c or the heat.

3rd Transmission and other stuff - 2000 Kia Sephia
By R&B - January 29 - 10:00 am1st Tranny was retired at 250~ miles. second lasted untill 3 weeks ago. A Tranny control module was replaced under warranty in the carolinas and Kia has yet to send reimbursment for roadside warranty. Bad thing is I like the car but this thing has had more problems overall in two years than all my cars Ive owned in 18 years driving! I do not like Kia service, sales, or their customer NO SERVICE.
