Used 2012 Kia Rio for Sale near Castlegar, BC

I've had the car for about 2 years now...I bought it used in 2013...it was a year old at the time with 12,000 miles on it. The Pros are great and honest (see aforementioned)...but the only scary issue I had was the sticking accelerator pedal that was causing my car to seemingly "accelerate on its own". Very dangerous. The first I brought it in to Kia they "ran the computer through it and test drove it" but couldn't find anything or replicate my horrifying and seemingly random experiences. After the second incident (2 weeks after the first)...I brought it AGAIN in and they discovered that the sticking accelerator pedal was the issue. They replaced it for free because I am currently only at 47,000 miles. I hope this helps anyone who has any issues and has been told that there is "nothing wrong" with their car when in fact they know there is. Be persistent! 2 VERY scary and dangerous (almost) accidents from my car accelerating on its own while driving, with the brakes on and in park. Luckily I was able both times to step on the brake hard, park and pull the key out. I also read that putting the car in neutral and pulling over and doing the aforementioned will work if sudden stopping on a thruway (for example) poses as dangerous. Hopefully this issue is ACTUALLY solved. I will keep you all posted if anything changes. I wish you all well with any endeavors that you may have.

For a little car like this, it is easy to get blown away by its performance! yes it may have only 100 or so kilowatts BUT every other car in its class has from 50 - 90kW so this one is ahead of the game! so although no traffic light dragster, it has the uncanny ability to put a smile on your face when you put the foot down and arrive at the speed limit! brakes are fantastic, handling wise, it just grips the road like a cat thats got a grip onto curtains. Overall, it is an awesome car that allows you to have fun within the law and has the ability to sip fuel when driven efficiently (the trip computer at one stage said 3.9L/100Km!)

It seems to be a nice car but is still too new, as of yet I have had no issues with driving it. I would of liked keyless entry though

This car is affordable, fun, and reliable. Good mileage. A good, all-around compact car. Zips around town very nicely, but lacks power and room, even for a small car. Still, would buy again and recommend to anyone looking for a sub-compact.
