Bro..how long you need to wait for your k5?
*
Didnt have to wait actually. There was a white K5 available at the showroom when I went over for a test drive. After I paid the deposit, the SA told me that I could have it if the loan came through quickly coz there was someone else also eyeing it. The loan came through on Wed after Raya so I managed to get it. biggrin.gif

Was able to get a RM2k discount. The SA is also changing the logos ( from Kia to K ) - front & back and on all the wheels.

Hope the car works well for you, but this is usually depends on luck also. Btw mind telling which sales outlet you get it from?

I definitely have the driver seat lumbar support sound which annoyed me badly.

Went back twice to RedCube to get them to rectify but after 6 hrs, I was told there's nothing they can do as the seat is 'non-serviceable' and any claims would have to have the whole seat replaced.

This is definitely NOT a good answer or response!

Gonna wait till 10k service before I go bug them again.  mad.gif

I plan to go to red cube pj for my next 10k service too. I went kemuning utama SC once and they said it cant be fixed.

You got it replaced, so did it solve the problem? I think you mentioned before it's still the same

For me i faced some jumpy steering issue but i guess thats just the way the car is. Not really a problem or defect. But to try and solve this 'issue', Naza Kia offered to replace both my rear shock absorbers FOC. But no difference cuz like i said before, its not really a defect. But my current problem is the stale smell for about 5 secs from the aircon when u switch it on during a cold start. But Naza Kia have now ordered a replacement aircon filter just to see if it solves the problem. Ive also faced the vibrating wiper issue for some time. Naza has now odered a replacement wiper arm & new blades for me although wipers are not covered under warranty. Naza Kia also replaced both my front fog lamps FOC when the plastic cover became bent on 1 side. Again not really their fault but they still replaced out of goodwill. No issues since then.

So far Naza Kia have been very good with the after sales service and warranty claims. But they need to reduce the lead time of replacement parts which is too long now.

I just did my 10,000km 2nd service last week and it cost me about RM280 inclusive fully syn oil, filter, allignment, balancing and wash.

Based on my personal experience so far, Naza Kia is not particular about warranty terms. Even if a part is not under warranty, they feel obliged to change. I think they are more concerned about negative feedback.

NASA does not have good reputation on customer support. If they are working hard to change that,it is good news!
