Rondo

  • miles
The gas is being sucked down so fast that I'm only getting 6 miles to a half a tank of gas. This appears to be a common problem with this car and yet Kia says they are unaware of any problems related to this model or year. The mechanics have been unable to find the cause of the problem.
