First time in 61 years of driving that I had a starter fail--should not happen at 77,000, miles particularly when Kia promotes a 100,000 warranty, which however, does not cover the starter--otherwise I love the car (LX 4WD) but as a result I'm looking at the 2015 Mazda CX-5 and the 2015 Sorento AWD models because I don't want to be left stalled 20 miles down a dirt road in the wilderness with a car which won't start.
