Great car, minimal issues, AMAZING mpg
by ZoeK on 8/27/2026 2:40:12 AM
I get 35-50 mpg on the highway. In this economy, that’s enough for me to leave a 5 star review. Love this car! - 5.0
Best car I’ve ever owned
by Mel from the Shore on 8/13/2026 10:52:48 PM
I’ve had my 2021 Kia Forte for quite a few years now and, with 97,000 miles, I honestly couldn’t be happier with it! I still average around 41 MPG, which is fantastic, especially with today’s gas prices. I’ve never had a major mechanical issue with this car. I’ve simply kept up with routine maintenance—regular oil changes and replacing tires and brakes as needed—and it has been incredibly reliable. The heat and A/C still work great, too! It’s comfortable, dependable, fuel-efficient, and inexpensive to maintain. I think the Kia Forte would make an excellent first car for anyone looking for something reliable and economical. I’d definitely buy another one! - 4.0
Driver side window problem
by Eddie on 1/10/2026 4:39:33 PM
I bought a new 2024 Kia Forte and I like it except for the mentioned driver side window does not roll down many a times. I took it to KY dealer. First they thought it was the switch, then that did not fix it and I have to bring it back again and waited for few more days to for them to fix it. Then after that the problem persisted, I just did not care so much about it because it opens sometimes but also wont open many times, but now after a year, it will not open anymore. Next week I am going to bring it back again to the dealer to have it fix again.
