KIA KNEW OF THIS PROBLEM BUT THEY STILL KEEP SELLING THESE CARS, WHY?

MY ENGINE FAILED LEAVING ME ON SIDE OF THE ROAD, HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHP AND THEY SAID IT COULD BE 2 TO 3 MONTHS BEFORE THEY CAN EVEN GET IT IN TO BE DIAGNOSTED. AND AS FAR AS A VEHICLE THEY DONT HAVE LOANERS. I SAID WHAT ABOUT RENTAL?

SHE SAID I COULDNT GET A RENTAL UNTIL THE CAR WAS DIAGNOST AND KIA PUTS IN FOR NEW MOTOR. I WORK TWO JOBS AND HAVE NO OTHER VEHICLE. SHE SAID TALK TO SALES ABOUT A TRADE IN. SO WENT TO SALES, THEY SAID I OWE 10,000 ON THE VEHICLE, AND THE VEHICLE IS ONLY WORTH 5 - 6000. SO THEY SOLD ME A CAR FOR 25000 THAT WASNT EVEN WORTH TEN WHEN I BOUGHT IT. I SAID OH HELL THIS IS GETTING BETTER.

Any way no luck there either. So here I set paying for a vehicle that I cant drive for almost a year. I cant go to the store, doctors appt, bank and so on. now I'm on my own to figure out how to get to both jobs when I have no one to help. but it is not Kia's problem.

THE HELL IT AINT. KIA KNEW OF THESE ISSUES LONG BEFORE I BOUGHT MY CAR AND SAID NOTHING.AND I FOUND OUT IT WAS IN 1 ACCIDENT BEFORE AND THEY SAID NOTHING.

I'm going to lose work because of this issue. It just does not make since to me. so now I just have to call on friends hoping they can take me, but if they can't I have to walk 10 miles to work. There is no taxis were I live. besides who could afford that everyday? I'm so upset that I cant do anything about it.
