Replying to: boughtrio5 (Sep 21, 2008 6:36 am) As far as the rapid tire (I spell it this way because I am living in the U.S. If I were living in the U.K. I would spell it "tyre") wear, you might want to consult with the Better Business Bureau and/or the tire manufacturer. The wear does seem excessive. I don't know that I wouldn't replace the tires and hang on to the receipts in order to continue to drive the car, but I would keep pushing for reimbursement. Oh, and on the slim chance that you paid for the car with a credit card you might want to try pursuing reimbursement through the credit card company. Good luck with that, and don't give up until you can say you gave it your best shot and tried every avenue. |

| To put things in perspective, I wrote that to find out if anyone actually read any of these questions, comments, as they rarely get answered. It took my responding to get your attention, right? And we are not natives. We are Americans, speaking english. And tire is spelled t i r e. Racism has nothing to do with the post. I encounter stupid people all day long, and frankly, get tired, (no pun intended, maybe) of people making the english language their final effort to push it out of this country. Just the way the 14% get their way in religion in this country. If you cannot spell correctly, use the spell check. If you cannot make a complete understandable sentence, or paragraph, try to take an english lesson. I am not looking to degrade anyone for what they are ignorant of, but if you are going to post on a forum, post it so everyone can read it, and understand it. Next time, just answer the question without the guilt trip. Duh, did ja udrstnd dat??? | |

| Man, what a real jerk. My 08' hasn't had any problems with the wheels or the tires. Of course, I have only 13k on it too. Does that mean that I am looking to have trouble, or is it because it is an older model you have? Just wandering. My tires are real small like, I mean, a little bigger than a scooters wheels. I guess I need to check the weight of the car to see if that is a problem with tires that are small. Bigger tires would seem to run better, if they can be put on this car. I don't have a clue. | |

I own a 2002 Kia Rio. Now that the warranty has went out, I have experienced several problems. In 2006, I had the rear wheel bearings replaced. Just 2 yrs later, I have to now replace them again. The service guy said that they have been having trouble with the bearings and they were replacing them every 40,000 miles. But I only have about 75,000 miles on my car now and I think they should have lasted longer than it has. Bearings aren't my only problem. My driver side door will not open now even with the key. Can't open it from the inside or the outside. I was able to open the door panel alittle and there is no way to get to the anything. I really need some advice..otherwise this car has been nothing but trouble and I will have to assume that you get what you pay for.
