kia rondo 2010 Alphons E. , 04/28/12 4.00 Rear door does not activate dome lights, lack of illumination in the baggage area
kia rondo 2009 Julie G. FONTANA, CA 06/15/12 4.00 I love my Rondo, it's just the right size for me. The only problem I've had is losing it in the parking lot, it's smaller then trucks and SUV's so it is often hidden. I call it my "Baby SUV".
kia rondo 2009 Kerri N. , 02/09/12 3.00 great car to drive, unfortunately premature brake wear. Kia service requirements seem excessive.
Kia Rondo 2009 Norm L. , 09/01/10 4.00 Only problem with this vehicle seems to be a loose suspension. I get a rattling sound when driving on uneven pavement. Not sure what the problem is.

Kia Rondo 2008 Donna M. ANDOVER, OH 07/08/10 1.00 REar end can not be align my car is so bad the tires are tilting in.
Kia Rondo 2008 Dolores M. APTOS, CA 10/20/09 n/a I also had a problem with the rear wheels going badly out of alignment. The alignment shop told me there was means by which they could be aligned. I took it to a KIA dealer. KIA refused to cover the problem under the current warrantee. The dealer fixed the problem at my expense by driiling an extra hole for each rear wheel. I returned to the independent alignment shop for an opinion on the repair and was assured that this was an appropriate repair that should cause no further trouble.
Kia Rondo 2008 JACK R. GALION, OH 10/14/09 4.00 MINE IS A V6, I HAD A 2007 4 CYL. THE SIX IS FINE BUT I WOULD PREFER THE 4 OVER THE SIX. I LIVE IN FLATLAND OHIO. ITS A HOT LITTLE FOUR.
Kia Rondo 2008 Phillip D. SOUTH WHITLEY, IN 09/15/09 1.00 we are having a problem with the front and rear tires we have not even had are Kia rondo for a year and already have went through 5 tires. If we put two brand new tires in the front and get them aligned it seems to still ware on the inside of tire showing wires.nobody seems to know whats wrong with the 2008 Rondo. And the back seems to last a little longer then the front. But the tires only seems to last with less than 14,000 miles on them. And every time we get them changed it costs us around 250-350-dollars which is rediculas. thank you.
Kia Rondo 2008 Elizabeth P. ALEXANDRIA, TN 05/25/09 3.00 Just bought it
Kia Rondo 2008 Marky M. , 05/03/09 4.00 Rough shift from 1st to 2nd, on a 2.4L automatic.
Kia Rondo 2007 John R. EUSTIS, FL 05/24/11 4.00 no commentinstrument lights, airbag and esc off, these light came on and I was wondering if a recall had been issued to fix problem.
Kia Rondo 2007 Ron C. PALM COAST, FL 12/09/10 3.00 Tire wear: Maybe due to mech.problem
Kia Rondo 2007 Jaroslav H. SIMI VALLEY, CA 04/22/10 1.00 My car Rondo 2007 suddenly started lock the hatchback on its own. That's was first problem I realized. Same day I found that I can not accelerate. Engine sounded like I did not press on gas, even I pressed it to the floor. One hour latter I came to my car and it worked properly. I was going to the 1st KIA in Simi Valley, CA and told them about problem, their fix was new battery $150.00. On the way home engine in my car was suddenly very noise. I am not right now in the position to say "it is bad car," but this strange sound from the engine surprised me and I started to feel very unsecured. Their charge for battery is "Highway robbery." At this moment I don't recommend to anybody to buy KIA. You can get cars with same extras for same price from other car manufactures. And as for 1st KIA in Simi Valley, CA? Avoid those people and dealership. And as for fixing your car? I don't think they know how to fix the cars. They are very bad. Go somewhere else. Just saying!
Kia Rondo 2007 Martha B. SOUTH EL MONTE, CA 07/08/09 1.00 Bought new . Rattling sound from front end when in gear, backing up & a/c on gets worse. ESC Light on unable to shift into gear. Struts 2nd time replace. Seatbelt & air bag light stays on. Six parts replaced rattling still exist.
Kia Rondo 2007 Robert L. BEAVERTON, OR 03/25/09 4.00 Decent car once I got dealership to fix parking brake issue and door latch for hidden compartment. almost a year in to ownership and no problems to speak of after those repairs were done.
Kia Rondo 2007 ANGEL P. CHICAGO, IL 01/23/09 5.00 Very dependible.
Kia Rondo 2007 B C. NEW BERN, NC 01/07/09 3.00 Had a o2 sensor problem. The defective part was replaced no further problems
Kia Rondo 2007 Richard R. SAGINAW, MI 10/20/08 5.00 With the added safety of the side-curtain air bags. The vehicle has more safety features than others in it's class at a lower price.
Kia Rondo 2007 James C. GLENDALE, AZ 09/17/08 3.00 Car pulls to right. Kia acnowledges it is a bad part in rear suspension, but dealership tap dances around exactly what part it is and despite attempts to get it fixed, it still pulls to the right at 5000 miles.
Kia Rondo 2007 C V. RICHMOND, MA 05/29/08 2.00 Starting issues - parts replaced but still not fixed. Interior parts cheap and easily broken Painful to get parts through dealer channel
