Engine Failure
Kia engines fail and the company has refused millions repair or replacement despite billions in fines and class action settlements. Buy American!

2015 Kia Optima seemed great, until the knock sensor, engine AUX canister went as well as the bearings and the engine is no good.

Chatting about my vehicle.
Not sure what to say. It get 30 mpg. It drive nice. Had new brakes and rotors put on. It needs new tires and battery soon. It is a reliable car. I put on a lot of miles. It is about 50 miles a day just going to work. I average over 1000 miles a month. Haven't taken the car on many trips. Do not want to drive too far away.

Beautiful snowy white baby.
I had my eye on the Kia optima from the first time I saw it, I loved the look of it and it was my first brand new car I ever purchased. I have had no problems with it over the last 5 years and have no plans to turn it in for a new car as I’ll ride it till the wheels fall off.

Best purchase I have ever made!
I love the Kia optima. It is stylish, fast, dependable, comfy, and fast. I love taking long drives and almost never have any car troubles. Basic oil change and a tire replacement here and there. I have had my car for 2 years and will only leave it to upgrade to a new optima. Great car!

Cars very reliable turbo engine great heated and cooling seats great on gas.
My car is very reliable. My car is great on gas mileage. I enjoy that it is a turbo engine it gives me that extra boost when needed. I love the heated seats and the calling of the seas. There is currently one recall on my engine from 2014 to 2018. I would buy another one.

Don't underestimate this little car!
Very reliable, but is a little loud inside. The seats are standard, and the features are useful. I drive in areas with lots of snow and my car has never had a problem. It obviously isn't as heavy duty of an engine as larger vehicles so it does have a little trouble uphill, but other than that it drives great and gets amazing gas mileage.

I love the Bluetooth, very convenient for hands free!
I have had to replace the starter 3 times and I am always worried I am going to break down. I purchased the car used, but boy I should have looked at another vehicle, I am sure it spends more time in the shop then on the highway. Would have definitely not purchased if I knew it had these issues.

Average vehicle for a somewhat elevated price.
I am by no means an automobile expert but my opinion is that this car is just average. It drives well, gets good gas mileage, and has great trunk space. The interior is nice but could have a more updated computer system for the price. After purchasing the car new I have driven it for 50,000 miles and am just now beginning to have issues mechanical and otherwise. Most notably with the air conditioning system. In the future I would be interested in purchasing a car with more interior space, more headspace and foot room.

The 2015 Kia optima sx t-gdi is a great car, it drives like a dream.
I love my Kia optima, I bought it December 2016 but I liked the 2015 model better and it was the only turbo on the lot at the time. When I first got it I was having a oil leak due to the nuts and bolts on it and they were recalled and the problem was taken care of. Now my engine light is on and I have over a 100,000 miles on it and it cost a $150 just to have them look at it and hadn't been able to have the look at it do not have the money.

The pleasures of owning a Kia optima.
I love my Kia optima! I purchased it in Feb 2017 and it only had 17,000 miles. Other than routine maintenance, I've had no problems with car and I've not had any repairs done. This car is so very easy on gas. It gives a very smooth ride. The seats are very easy to clean. I try to keep the oil changed on time, every 3,000 miles. When the time comes that I have to purchase another vehicle, I will definitely be getting another Kia optima!!

My favorite car I have owned: Kia optima.
I absolutely love my Kia. I was looking for a sedan that would be comfortable and spacious enough for myself & two children to ride it frequently (with car seats). This car is very comfortable and it is safety specs are great!! We travel in this vehicle 5 hours one way trip at least once a month with 2 car seats and two adults and it is very comfortable. The only issue I have had since owning the vehicle is an oil leak (that I still need repaired).

Comfy and technologically advanced.
I really like my Kia optima. It is a decent sized vehicle with a bunch of upgrades. The leather seats are nice paired with a heated and cooling seats. You are able to have at least two settings for the driver side. The panoramic sunroof is my favorite aspect. It has decent power on an affordable tank size. I would like more leg space in the back seat, however that is not where I sit so it is not a huge problem.

The best part of my car is the leather, heating and cooling seats!
I have had absolutely no issues with my car since I purchased it. The only thing I would change about the car is the height of the passenger side seat. The driver's seat goes up and down to reach the height required for the driver, but the passenger's side seat does not move up and down and therefore makes the seat extremely low, especially for those who are not as tall as some.

Vehicle is comfortable and reliable.

Reliable, low cost, great gas mileage.

Spacious car very family friendly!
The Kia optima lx is a great, spacious car that can fit a family of 5 with no problem! Although very roomy, this car make has had a couple recalls with the “computer” of the car where for example the tire pressure is low signs kept appearing but Kia is usually really quick to get right onto the recalls when they realize it is needed. The interior seats are fabric and are very comfortable to sit in during long road trips or just a trip to a store. The seats go back pretty far and are also comfortable enough to sleep in if you ever need too! Gas mileage on the highway is 32/mpg and in the city it is 16/mpg. Very worth it I think for the gas mileage alone this car will save you a lot of money each month on gas especially if you are doing a lot of highway driving to go to and from work. Next thing that I think is the best part of the car too is the trunk! The trunk is so big and has a compartment underneath that is not just for the spare tire which adds even more room to the trunk! Grocery shopping is great with this car because of this amount of trunk space it has. Little features of the car I have found amazing and helpful are: the drivers side has two buttons but bottom of the door that you lift to either pop the gas tank open or the trunk (I have found both so convenient), there is a cooling option for drinks or whatever else you might want to keep cool in the glove department, and the back seats can be lifted down for even more room in the trunk for things such as furniture, giant boxes, TVs and whatever else you may be able to fit into the trunk if need be! Overall I think this Kia make is a car you will not be disappointed in and you can enjoy and save money with it as well!

I overall like my vehicle it is a nice car and it gets me where I need to be!
My vehicle for the most part is very reliable! I have had 2 problems in the summer when it gets to 100+ degrees I will sometimes start my car and it will never cool down even if I leave it on for 20 minutes it stays hot. The other problem was I have taken it in for 5 recalls and I have had it for a little over 2 years. I know that making the proper adjustments are very important but I feel as if they would get everything taken care of when they make the car everything would be easier and better for me.

My car is reliable and not money eater.
I have had my Kia optima for five years and I have not had any problems. It does not consume a lot of gas and it does not require much maintainability as other cars. If the car has any issues the dashboard lets me know and I just contact the dealer and they take care of it. I really like my car and would recommend it to anyone looking for a car to use on regular basis.

The double sunroof was a nice surprise.
I have had two Kia optima. The first was an optima sxl turbo and I loved it. As my grandson stated so eloquently 'wow! This is definitely not a grandma car.' The second didn't have as many bells and whistles as the sxl turbo. I have come to appreciate the tires that are on the lx model a little more than the ones on the sxl. If you drive in the city the thinner tires are fine. But if you live in a rural area be prepared to have a few flats. I have very few tire problems.

I love my Kia optima! She keeps my comfortable, while I ride in style.
I had been looking at Kia optimas for over a year and after high school it was the first car I have bought myself! I love this car; it is spacious, has great gas mileage and I think it is so pretty! One thing to be mindful of though is checking blind spots, sometimes because of the way it is built, you need to double check to make sure you can see when people are not in your vision! I have the 2015 optima sx which has the mirror alert sensors which helps with that a lot. Another issue that Kia seems to have is the clock disappearing on the screen.. Usually it can be resolved through a hard software reset but that didn't work for mine. Other than that, I love this car! Take good care of it, check your tires and get your oil changed and she will treat you well!

The functional and reliable 2015 Kia optima lx.
My 2015 Kia optima lx is a reliable car. I purchased the vehicle used in 2017 and as of July 2020, have only had to get regular oil changes, tires, batteries, etc. No major repairs have been required. The car still runs like a charm. I do feel that the car has limited features that I would enjoy. For instance, there is no backup camera, no self-inverting side mirrors, and no sunroof. In my opinion, my 2015 Kia optima lx only lacks by not having features standard on other vehicle models for that year. Overall, I purchased the car for reliability though and I am pleased with my choice.

It is a midsize sedan if you really need space I would go with a full-sized sedan.
I haven't really had any issues with my Optima beyond that I live in California and sometimes it gets very hot. For some reason this causes my radio/navigational screen to black out until the car gets to a decent temperature again. The buttons on the dash and she screen itself are still responsive but you cannot really see anything and it is very blurry when it does come back. The car is pretty large and has a decent amount of space since I have a baby on the way comfort is very important and it is been very good to me.

Overall, I love my Kia optima. It is a great size for every day, however if you have kids, it is pretty small. One car seat fits well, but two gets cramped. We haven't had any mechanical issues and I would absolutely purchase another one in the future if we needed to.

I have no issues or problems with the vehicle.
I have no issues with this vehicle. I like the 4 door and the way the car drives. I like that it has Bluetooth but I wish it had a camera in the back so I can see when backing out. I would recommend getting this car. It works with the whole family. Nothing too bad about it.

My very special ride. I am truly surprised at the comfort I enjoy when driving!
I love the smooth ride, the leather seats and the fact that I can give certain commands to it and it will change the channel of my radio, call for help or add to my travel lists. It actually greets me when I open the door and get in! I actually love all aspects of my car. Even the color, which is not a common one. It's like a light goldish browN I wasn't even really looking for a Kia until I saw this one. Love it...

Kia optima: nobody does it better.
I really love this car due to its simplicity along with its luxurious and roomy interior. No problems with the engine or anything else. It has been nothing but smooth sailing from the gate. I highly recommend it if you're into saving gas and money. So enjoy.

My Kia optima to me has a unique color about it, it is a deep cherry red.
I have been driving my Kia optima for almost 3 years. I drive almost an hour and a half to and from work every day, so I believe it has been super reliable. The gas mileage is great on it, I get roughly 30 mpg. The interior portion of the car is comfortable and roomy if you do not have children. I have two kids and it can get a little crowded with two car seats. The car itself has some get up and go power to it. Overall I would suggest anyone to buy a Kia optima.

I hate this car
I have replaced the battery engine and brakes on 2015. I've not finished paying for it and it still isn't running

2015 Kia optima is a worthy car option, especially for first-time buyers.
I love my 2015 Kia optima; however, I bought it used, so there is some minor cosmetic damage from the previous owner. I have also had issues with the engine, which required me to get a whole new engine. Thankfully, there was a recall on it, and Kia provides a lifetime warranty includes engines. Other than that, the car runs smoothly and I am very happy with my purchase.

This is my 3rd Kia! I am a fan.
Has every feature of the high end luxury cars at half the price. It is fast reliable and easy to service. I leased the car and loved it so much I brought it. Has the large moon roof heated and air conditioned seats. A light grey and black two tone interior which is very stylish. The uvo radio system is great and easy to program. The 6 cylinder turbo charge engine will get you all the speeding tickets you want.

Horrible steering! Be aware!
The steering wheel gets stuck at the 12:00 position and you have to wiggle it to get it unstuck. Horribly dangerous when going over 40 mph. The stereo likes to decide when certain button and knobs will work, it is very random. The rear light case leaks for no reason at all and we keep having to replace the bulb.

The gas mileage is my favorite feature!
Great gas! Safety rating is high. I got into an accident with my old one same make model year & it saved my life. The interior is luxury, I would rather the radio BC more like a Toyotas. The car had a lot of space and the fabric used in the car cleans up easy.

My vehicle is okay as far as mid size sedans.
My car has all the bells and whistles. Heated and cooled front seats, sunroof, navigation, heated rear seats. It is good on gas mileage. It does sit low to the ground and my aging knees know it.
accountCircle Kesha F on March 3, 2021
Overall great car for small family. This car is ideal in the cold winter months.
This Kia optima is very nice. It has leather seats, moon sunroof. The gas mileage is not the best. The comfort of the car overall is great for a family of three. The passenger seat sits very low and should be able to adjust like the driver side in my opinion. Spacious trunk. Heated seats, front and back.

The radio is slightly shifted towards the driver!
Never have had any issues with my vehicle! I love everything about it and my favorite is that I have an eco friendly option on my steering wheel. It is such a convenient spot as well. Might I add that it is amazing on gas and family friendly! I always recommend Kia to anyone in need or someone who is looking for a car!

The rear view mirror adjust to the lights at night which is one thing I love!
I love my car. One thing I do not like is, it does not have heated seats. I wish it had a sunroof but that is not a huge issue. Another thing I do not like is the tire sensor. It says my tire pressure is low every time the weather gets colder. It goes off even if you put air in it.

Car still runs smooth, like a glove. Given its year.
Had the car for nearly 2 months now and the car window on drivers side, motor has begun to fail. Seems like there’s a bubble in my tire already even though I literally drive less than 2 miles to work and back. The car is still reliable at the moment. Greasy parts - nothing wrong with so far.
accountCircle jackie b on February 25, 2021
It's a very dependable car with a great warranty in case anything goes wrong.
I love my car - the way it looks, the price I paid the warranty. What I don't like is that I paid extra for pearl white paint, but it scratches off easily.

Best car you'll ever buy I promise.
I love this car! First of all, it is such a comfortable car! The cloth interior is soft and does not absorb the heat too much which is important if you live in hot areas! The performance is great as well! The car has an eco mode, which allows me to save money on gas and help the environment! The eco mode actually is great because it allows for more speed, which is great if you like to go fast! In my car I have a backup camera which is extremely help if you are bad at parallel parking or reversing like me. The backup camera allows you to see what is behind you as. It even shows you a guide to how close you are in relation to other cars. It turns green if you are in the clear and it turns red if you are about to hit something. My car came with SiriusXM radio which I think is nice to have but definitely not a necessity. The Sirius radio is extra per month, but it has a nice variety of channels that everyone is sure to love. The sound of the speakers is so high quality. It sounds like a surround sound studio! Makes it perfect for those days you just need to belt out your favorite song! I like the Kia optima because it has two charging ports as well as a auxiliary plug in and USB plug in. It is a very versatile car that is perfect for any type of customer! Oh and did I mention the huge trunk. Whether your a soccer mom, a surfer, or just someone who likes to keep all their stuff in the car just in case- this trunk will fit it all!! I keep beach chairs, toys, and backpacks in my trunk and it all fits!

It had power. Like no other car that I have ever handled.
I do not have any problems with my car. I did only have my car for 45 days but it was the best car that I ever bought. I will most definitely buy another car like mines again. It rides smoother than any car you could ever think of. It was a rolls Royce to me.
accountCircle Kimberley T on February 24, 2021
It is a sporty looking car!
The passenger seat is really low and uncomfortable. I am not sure why it is not the same height as the other front seat? Other than that I love my Kia optima!It drives well and gets great gas mileage!I love the color. I wish I had electric seats and mirrors.But, for the price,I can adjust them myself!

Best gas mileage for a midsize.
I love my optima. The gas mileage is what sold me on this vehicle. The extra I pay for payments is offset by the gas mileage. It has a smooth ride and looks sharp.

My overall satisfaction in Kia ownership.
My Kia optima is very reliable and a very comfortable means of transportation. I have travelled Michigan with it and I have never had any issues. The Kia customer service center has always gone above and beyond in my expectations servicing all my needs.

Kia optima 2015 better than an BMW.
Been using it since 2016 (4 years now) and there has been no issues. Smooth drive and is a very good looking car. All white with black rims and black roof looks like an expensive foreign BMW when it is a Kia. Loved them since Blake Griffin jumped over one in the dunk contest and was more than happy to make it my first car. Nothing but positive things to say about the Kia optima great overall car.

Trunk is really deep, if something gets pushed to the back, it is hard to reach.
The Kia optima is a nice looking vehicle. It is comfortable to drive. The one thing that I do not like is that the passenger seat is very low due to the airbag placement making it hard for the passenger to see out of the windshield and can also be difficult for the passenger to get out of the car. Overall a good quality affordable car.
accountCircle Brittany M on February 19, 2021
Rear view camera is the best.
I love my Kia. It has the luxury feel and also very reliable. My favorite part is the rear view camera. The sun and moon roof also had a nice touch. The seat warmers make it great for me on cold mornings on my way to work. I highly recommend this car to anyone.

Kia optima is the ultimate car for me.
My Kia optima is my favorite car ever. It has fantastic gas mileage. I can get all the way to our vacation lot in Arizona on one tank of gas. It is comfortable, has all the bells and whistles in it I want. Seat warmers, seat coolers, sunroof, lane change alert, phone attached to my cell phone, GPS. All the good things.

The 2015 Kia optima lx car.
The performance of my car is wonderful, I absolutely love it. I would recommend a Kia to other people as well. It is very reliable and it has a great gas mileage. I like that it has volume buttons on the steering wheel, makes it easier. The only problem I have had with my car is some wiring issues setting off my check engine light for my o2 sensors when they work just fine.
