The two rear tires are fine. The dealer said becase I didn't rotate them enough. I find this unlikely after only 15000 miles. I replaced the two tires and have since rotated them twice and at 19000 they are goingt bald again. What's wrong with this car?

My kia has a hard time going into gear when I first shift it into drive or reverse. I have to feather the gas peddel to get it to ingage. If I just step on the gas and try to drive off it will slam into gear after the rpms are over 2000. I need to know what and or how much to rebuild.

Fan only works on highest speed since last week. From research it appears this is a very common failure on these vehicles. I can find the part online so I know what it looks like, but cannot see anything that looks like that under the hood or on the firewall.

The car works good with excellent acceleration and ride and has given me good service for the past 11.5 years.

The dealer service shop has come up with these repairs.
1. Injectors and intake is dirty needs flush & carbonization.
2. Colant hoses are dry rotted.
3. Coolant is dirty needs flush.
4. Reverse switch is leaking transmission fluid needs service.
5. Oil pan gasket is leaking oil.
6. Valve cover gaskets leaking oil.
Also the A/C cools but, cannot cool hot texas summer. It would not be cool but, neither would it be hot.
The struts have also gone bad.

Kelley Blue Book Trade-in Value is $1815
Kelley Blue Book Retail Value is $4760 (if I sell myself)
The real numbers could be very different but, some number is better to work with than nothing.

Is it worth fixing the Maxima or buy a new car?

Thanks,
SG

Clearly, some people NEED to use this form of communication while driving. Police, delivery people, salesmen, etc.

How about this idea? In order to be able to use your cell phone while driving, you are required to take a two or three day course, including hands-on skills, then receive an extra notation on your driver's license, and perhaps a sticker for the window of your car. Also, insurance rates go up. Anyone who wants to talk on the cellphone would be required to cough up the money to take it. Would also be a new industry, much like the defensive driving industry.

There is nothing that irritates me so much as to see some airbrain on the phone, driving ten miles under the speed limit in the left hand highway lane.

I've notice it's happening more and more lately and it is quite annoying. At first it only happened during the winter, but this summer it happened all summer. Now I try closing the car door with my feet or butt instead of my hands. Is there anything I can do to prevent the shocking?

I was under a lot of pressure to make a decision, now I believe I can't afford this car. I've only had it one day, I have the dealer's plate, and have to bring it back Monday. I signed ALL the papers, and gave a check for $750. which they haven't cashed.

Does anyone know what else will fit... can't seem to find anything that will go. I know it's a pretty hot engine, the radiator in it now is like decaying inside and out, hardly get 5km before overheating occurs. Been quoted about $500 for a new one and $380 to re-core the one thats in it.
