3 Tire problem of the 2007 Kia Motor Rondo

Failure Date: 06/27/2008

I purchased a brand new 2007 kia Rondo on Nov. 13,2006. Before the car had 20,000 miles on it, I had to replace 2 kumho tires(original on car) because metal wires were showing through. I contacted kumho about their warranty and was told it was due to the way I drove and it was not covered. They did not see the tires and yet made this decision! now I just had 2 more tires put on the car 2 days ago. The tire I intended to replace had metal wires showing through. When my husband brought the two kumho tires home that the dealer took off-we noticed the tire that showed no visible wear on the outside had a large pile of rubber fragments inside. Upon further investigation we noticed that the tire was worn on the inside and that metal wires were showing through. I will be contacting the manufacturer tomorrow morning but expect a run around like last time. According to the tire dealer who changed out my tires-kumho tires are cheap, crappy tires.

4 Tire problem of the 2007 Kia Motor Rondo

Failure Date: 04/04/2008

Hello, I have a 2007 kia Rondo lx 4 cylinder. From the day of the purchase the right front tire sometimes makes noises and during the rain the noise is more apparent. I took the vehicle to the dealer three times for this reason and they could not figure out what the issue was. Also once the esc light was blinking and I took the car to the dealer again and they were unable to find the problem. The esc sensor is going to be replaced next week. What concerns me is that I was informed that the brake lights may not illuminate when the brake pedal is depressed. Last year my car was hit from the back twice while it was at a stop position. In the second accident it was a hit and run, I was in a traffic on a highway and the other driver hit my car from the back. He screamed from his window "check your lights", now I understand that this accident could have been the result of the brake lights not working causing another vehicle to hit me. I was not able to find the driver and was forced to pay for the repairs myself. It cost me $1235. 30, out of which $190. 25 was used to order a back bumper and $10. 68 for side bracket and $19. 37 for right guard bracket and I paid to the zoom auto body shop(located at 240 n. Hill avenue, pasadena, CA 91106) $915. 11. The first accident was similar and now I am wondering whether my vehicle's non-functioning brake light could have been the cause as well. That accident cost me $2461, lucky the other vehicle's owner's insurance paid for that. Both cases are still open. I was told to contact you, hopefully, you can assist me somehow. Thank you for your time. Updated 02/04/10.
