    Engine lifespan

    Kia has designed the engine and I would they they know better. I think your dealer is just trying to make profit on extra needless oil changes. They know you will rarely visit the service department with the 100K warranty. Sent from my SM-G973U1 using Tapatalk

    How many people think the brake cooling vents actually works?

    Yes, engineered to break up the air airdam up front for aerodynamics. Nothing to do with breaks, more about Mileage efficiency. Sent from my SM-G973U1 using Tapatalk

    How's everyone ventilated seats holding up?

    These seats are not AC but rather pull air from under the seat. When it's really hot it works better if you wait for a bit for the cooled air to reach the bottom of the seat before turning on. You will notice it more. Sent from my SM-G973U1 using Tapatalk

    Cracked Window

    windshields are double pane but side windows are not. Side windows are single pane tempered glass. That's why when they shatter they break into a hundred million little peices. Sent from my SM-G973U1 using Tapatalk
