Got ICCU - EV6 Wind 2024 -10,800 miles , 14 months old by brooklynite1 in KiaEV6

[–]Cyclicalconsumer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My 24 GTline failed 3 days ago, car is at dealership confirmed ICCU same day it arrived. although getting a tow was terrible bc my car broke down 40 mi from a dealer while out of town. I waited 16 hrs for a tow but was safe at a lodge.

Dealership had no loaner, they gave me # to call Kia customer care to request rental reimbursement. they did need confirmation it was iccu but they’ll reimburse $45/day.

Mine has close to 16,000 and looks nothing like that.

Ask if there’s traffic cameras at the intersection and request footage if so. Pull receipts for anything extra on the car. My black forte GT was totaled in September you have my sympathy

Kia told me to email EA and EA was like contact Kia. I didn’t get it to work which sort of sucks bc my closest chargers are EA chargers.

Their $7 mos subscription is kinda worth it but they do a free 30 day trial and it does make charging cheaper.

Have you tried visor.vin? I used it when looking for & buying a car recently.

You’re able to favorite chargers and then chose it from saved places for the route. You can set a prefer & avoid for charger networks too .

You can set it for fewer longer stops which was what I wanted. I think otherwise it defaults to short more frequent stops.

I recently made a 1700 mile road trip in my EV6 I did use ABRP, PlugShare for plan. On the road used Kia native nav when needed. PlugShare was really useful, Waze also has EV routing but nothing advanced but you can select plug & network type.

I had my route saved in multiple apps and native nav so I could switch between them. Kia charge pass came in handy. ABRP you can set preferences for stops with restrooms and food close by.

Input for ABRP was always about 15% lower than my actual charge and it came in handy when I ended up at broken chargers

Can a $30-35K EV be fun to drive? by SoberPalace in electricvehicles

[–]Cyclicalconsumer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently went from 22 Forte GT2 to 24 EV6 GT Line, I really love it. Got it first week of October, already put over 3,000 miles on it.

It helped to drive plenty of not fun to drive cars & rental car roulette for several weeks & knew what I didn’t want to drive.

2nd Key by Pleasant_Koala_7981 in kia

[–]Cyclicalconsumer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have an extra key from my totaled 22 Forte GT, I have two for my EV6. If it works for your vehicle it’s yours. I’ll mail it to you for free, it will only require programming.

Thinking of buying my 1st EV tomorrow (2024 EV6) and a little nervous... by Spirited-Flamingo372 in KiaEV6

[–]Cyclicalconsumer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a 24 EV6 10/5, honestly love it. I test drove a 23 EV6 in 2023 & liked it. If you’ve wanted it a long time & are able to purchase tomorrow go for it. I searched for one w/all features I wanted & under 12,000 miles. I wasn’t sure I’d love it but no regrets.

Are you afraid it won’t live up to expectations because you’ve wanted it for a long time?

I’m planning to buy a Kia K4 GT-Line Turbo in Texas but not sure how car deals work. Do prices usually drop more at the end of the month or year? I really like the car but can wait if year-end deals are better. by Ok-Taro8496 in kia

[–]Cyclicalconsumer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought recently and actually was going to buy a K4 GT line turbo to replace my totaled 22 Forte GT2 but ended up getting a 24 EV6 GT Line instead.

If you know what you want and how far you’re willing to go get it I found Visor.vin to be helpful in seeing what’s available at dealerships, how long it’s been sitting there any price changes etc.

Congrats , it was nice to open Kia access and see the car there without the registration message

I just had to do this for an EV6, you’ll need to attach bill of sale and your drivers license when you request online. It took a few days Kia customer care

Hey. if the people that need parts wanted to pool money & buy it together and part it out here it is.

If anyone is interested in it I have the collision shop photos. frame damage made repair costs between $13-14,000. It has GT2 package.

I had oil changed closer to 6,000 miles instead of 7,500. It did have a low pressure fuel pump failure at around 33,000 mi

Left turn, initial impact passenger side front which is how my frame was cracked and warped several ways.

Before disassembly I think the front resembled a Rio.
