CONS: not at all dependable, tires wore out quickly, cheap interior had to replace seat.

REVIEW: Manufacture did not satisfy my problem with the car I bought new in 2006. Rio had an ongoing problem with the coil which cause the car to run rough when ask how to fix the problem was told to keep having them replaced now very reliable traded it for a Nissan Altima. ...

CONS: Could use a bit more power on the highway

REVIEW: Bought new, it replaced a Hyundai Elantra I drove over 160k without much trouble. Loved the warranty and liked the exterior design over the sister-version Accent. Rides well enough, and has more space inside than it might seem from exterior. I would recommend it to anyone shopping for a ...

CONS: Features

REVIEW: I bought this car from a rental place, and the only problem so far has been the original battery, which I changed. Good warranty, which covers free towing and jump start. It is a small car, so strong winds and 18-wheelers may shake it a little bit. On the good side sometimes when I drive I have to ...

I have drove my Rio on the free way and it is a nice ride for those of us who live within our means.My relative just bought a new Kia Spectra and got $3000 of the price and u cant beat the ...

CONS: everything else

REVIEW: This is the worse car I've ever driven. I got it as a rental, and will NEVER accept another one. I am 5'8, and my right leg was literally cramping from trying to drive it on a 5 hour road trip. Much too small for anyone tall. Also, it just seems overall cheap. Doesn't handle well, ...

CONS: brakes, space

REVIEW: It's a great car. I haven't had any trouble with the steering wheel vibrating, but the brakes are a little sketchy. Space is tight, but the car handles better the sports car I had before the Rio. ...

CONS: No cruise control

REVIEW: I have had my Rio for exactly 3 years, and I love it. I have driven it up and down the length of Oregon more times than I can count, and have never had any problems. It gets great mileage and goes 80 on the freeway without you even realizing it. Maybe I just got lucky with mine, and it is the first ...

CONS: Poor steering, uncomfortable ride, unsafe over 65 mph

REVIEW: I was given this car as a weekend rental to take a family member out of town for a funeral. Not only is the ride extremely rough, the seats provide no support or comfort, the wind noise when windows are open is absolutely terrible, you can't hear the radio for road noise, the steering wheel ...

CONS: none.

REVIEW: Bought my Kia Rio new in 2005. Standard shift, no extras. I'd still be driving it but it was totaled in a recent accident. I missed the power steering and the automatic transmission that I declined. Very satisfied with the car and the dealer. Purchased a Kia Spectra this time and I'm ...

CONS: Engine noise, bad braking during emergencies.

REVIEW: Plain and simple: This car is driven to get you from point A to point B. It is not a car to enjoy a drive in. I own a 2005. I use it to drive to work 30 minutes away, on the highway. I use it to go buy groceries. I don't drive it around to impress anybody. It has never failed me. I treat it ...
