What are some common problems with the Kia Amanti?

My neighbor has an inexpensive Kia Amanti for sale because he’s moving out of town. Before I make an offer, I just want to make sure that I’m not buying a money pit. Are there any common problems with the Kia Amanti?

Although the
Kia Amanti
gets four out of five stars for reliability from RepairPal.com, it has some issues that come with wear and tear, as well as some faults of manufacturing. If you’re worried about any issues moving forward, here are some common problems with the Kia Amanti to look out for:
  • Power mirrors can unintentionally readjust themselves due to a faulty memory seat switch
  • A defective AC compressor can cause the air conditioner to vibrate violently when engaged
  • Hesitation when starting or accelerating
Common issues are dependent on the individual car, the model year, and the trim. Hopefully, this Kia Amanti doesn’t give you any issues. As a fail-safe, you may want to ask your neighbor if he’s had any problems or get a CarFax report just to make sure that it hasn’t been in an accident.
