Sephia

  • 36,000 miles

The car was hit at about 30 miles per hour at an angle. The passenger airbag deployed and caught fire as the wiring in the dash went up in flames. Smoke became thick. It was hard for the driver to find the way out. I had just recently exited the passenger side or I would have been in fire too! The car was a total loss. I'll never buy another Kia.
