Which Kia Forte do you bought? 1.6 or 2.0?

i bought is under 1.6 SX full spec are u driving also?

u cannot start the car?

lolz.but u must be one in a million.this is the first time i heard this problem

haih... sad for you... i have the intention to buy this car too. hmmm...

smart key and push start button..i think you're one of those one in a million car like darkcity212 said
those 2 seldom got problem
but i think fixable...as long not engine and transmission problem(expensive fix)

where got 1 in million, i think 1 in 100 got la

and their service centre sucks till max

dont forget service centre under who..
everyone dun like their after sales service..

if not mistaken, smart key and push start , if rosak means, something wrong with the key rite, that one, mmg malaysia wont hold part one ma,, kia wont give service center to program the smart key, that usually keys from the factory of origin rite.
same like the other expensive makes. i also remember,... if rosak one key or you want to make spare, the guys here wont be able to do it for u.. kene order dari head office rite ?

TS you got try holding the push start for 10 second to start your car?

If you can still start your car after holding it down for 10 seconds, meaning the sensor on the pedal came loose, that one is an easy fix, shouldn't take as long as you've said.

Seems to be common problem... a colleague's car also need hold down 5~7 sec (which is certainly not normal) but he sent it to the SC and was told its NORMAL lah.

He driving KIA or Hyundai? If Hyundai I can refer him to a SC that doesn't dismiss it as NORMAL.

Forte

you don't need to wait 5 weeks for the replacement key even though it's all the way fr HQ ...

Don't know anyone from KIA SC

But yes it's actually a common problem and usually it's because the push start sensor on the brake pedal came loose.

seems like you got a lemon...

my bro got one
but sometimes gear move problem

sc belum solve tapi i think minor issue


i sometimes weekend ambik pi drive
very cantik kete ini... if got money maybe i also buy

tapi 2nd hand lagi baik..dengar 50 ribu sudah boleh dapat kalau cari

Traditional key works the best..

That's why don't buy kimchii.
My father (company he working for) now pass him sonata to drive.
Driving experience good.
Then I ask my dad why duwan buy this type of car?
He just said Kimchii once spoil = your hell.
Then I understand liao.

Not trying to flame Korean car but my another friend kimchii tunggu 2 weeks just to get door handle replacement.
Imagine crawling frm the passenger seat to the driver seat everyday?

What shit is this man.
