problem #1

Jan 152011

Optima ES 3.2L V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 28,000 miles

Began having paint problems in January, 2011. First started with side mirrors bubbling and peeling in the clear coat...had that repainted $200 for both mirrors. Second, had rear bumper start bubbling and peeling in the clear coat...had that repainted $300. Third, now I have the rear spoiler with bubbling and peeling clear coat. Haven't had priced and repainted yet. Absolutely the worst paint job I have ever seen on a car that has 46000 miles on it today. Will never buy another Kia without a specific paint warranty from the dealer.
