Optima 4-cyl

  • 50 miles
Kia Optima, has too much chrome on the dash board and on the doors handles. When driving you get blinded when the sun is out. This cause your eyes to hurt and can cause temp blindness. Please do a study on this subject. It should be against the law to have chrome inside the dashboard and door handles on the inside.
