problem #1

Aug 292014

Optima LX

  • Automatic transmission
  • 38,900 miles

Had just purchased the vehicle and hadn't really examined the paint all that well. It is a beautiful car and really looked good at first glimpse. I was fueling the car the first time when I noticed the clear coat was off in several spots above the gas cap. This isn't a huge problem now, but when it starts coming off all over the car the paint will not last long. My wife loves this car and I want it to last 4 or 5 more years until I can afford to buy another Kia.
