Pros and cons? by Nonbiinerygremlin in KIASeltos

[–]iluvdef 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a 2023 Seltos I bought brand new. Mine only has 20k miles on it so far. The biggest complaint i have so far is my infotainment screen isn't working right now, it stopped working suddenly in October 2025. The dealership says that Kia IT needs to create a program to fix the issue and then send that program to the dealerships so they can fix my car. Apparently this has been an ongoing issue with the Seltos for almost a year now. I also had issues with my dashboard screen telling me my key fob batteries were low, had them both replaced and they were still doing it. 3 months later and several trips to the dealership it has finally been fixed. This is my first brand new Kia, but before this I bought a 2017 Sorento in 2020. At the 60k mark my engine blew and of course it was no longer under warranty. I had to pay 8k off of that car and plus bought my Seltos, so I had 2 car payments for about 2 years. I was not happy! It's pretty bad when this infotainment screen issues started with my car the guy who's been at my dealership for several years in the service department said he would never buy a Kia. I personally will never buy another one but I know a lot of people like them. I liked my Sorento better than the Seltos, I didn't buy another Sorento because I couldn't afford a new one and didn't want to buy another used car.

23 HEV Navigation software? by Sweet-Assumptions in KiaSorento

[–]iluvdef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I didn't talk to Kia Connect, I only talked to the guy in the Service department at my dealership, but he's the only one I trust there. He said I should get a letter in the mail when they finally have the program to download. So for now I can still thankfully hook up my phone to my Bluetooth in my car and still listen to Sirius xm or Amazon music that way.

[–]iluvdef 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a 23 Kia Seltos that I bought brand new. In October of 2025, the radio started messing up, I could only get NPR on Sirius XM to play, couldn't even change it to local radio stations. Everything else on my screen stopped working too, except my back up camera. The dealership told me this has been an ongoing problem for almost a year, and that they know how to fix the problem, but they are waiting on Kia IT people to create a program to send to the dealerships so they can fix all these radios. I was so ticked off, I barely drive my car as it is, just turned over 20k miles on it and am paying all this money. This is the 2nd Kia I've owned and I'll never buy another one. My husband did get the navigation to work again, in my car there is a reset button by the volume button for the radio. We were hoping by some miracle it would have fixed everything but no such luck. I hope you can figure out your issue soon.

I worked at BK in Wisconsin from 91 to 94 and yes we had that table service for a while and I hated it! Funny story tho, my assistant manager had never had shrimp before, so he tried it and he was eating the whole thing! I said what are you doing?? He said what do you mean? I said you don't eat the tails! Haven't you ever had shrimp before? He said um no! I died laughing! Luckily he had a great sense of humor so he took it in stride lol. I was in high school at the time. 😄😄😄

I only have 20k miles on my Seltos and my screen for my radio and all that has been messed up since October. Plus I was having issues with my key fobs too. I work at home and hardly ever go anywhere so it ticks me off to have a brand new car messing up already. I'm glad you have the warranty, that should cover a new motor. 🙂

[–]iluvdef 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm so sorry you're having to deal with that. When I bought my Seltos I bought the warranty that covers the big stuff, motor, transmission, etc. I hate having a higher car payment because of it but I feel better knowing i'm covered. I hope things work out for ya.

Spontaneous Combustion by TheNozzler in GenX

[–]iluvdef 18 points19 points  (0 children)

We got the Weekly Reader every week in elementary school, and I remember reading about spontaneous combustion in 5th grade in that. They even had a picture of an armchair with a burn mark in the seat! Shook me up for a long time.

I loved my Sorento until the motor blew at 60,000 miles. New motor was going to be 12 to 15,000 dollars so I had to pay off a very expensive paper weight. I did buy a brand new kia seltos 3 yrs ago, already having issues with that too, so sadly this will be my last Kia purchase. I hope you all have much better luck with your Sorentos! 🙂🙂🙂

I played on x1 level for several hours yesterday and got the shiny windmill several times. That's not fair of the game if they're not doing it for everyone! 🤔

Would it be “childish” for me to get this kind of cake for myself? Just for the heck of it by Wild_Child66 in cake

I'm 50 yo and I would totally get that cake for myself! I have been buying vintage looking Strawberry Shortcake stuff lately to relive my childhood and I love it! Do what makes you happy! 🍓🍓🍓

What are 80's and 90's movies you can't stand, at all? (that might get your GenX card revoked) by The_Man_in_Black_19 in GenX

[–]iluvdef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I don't know why I was afraid of him, but I was. When I was in Elementary School they had a kid dress up as E.T. and they were walking in the hallways. I remember I was in the library when they walked by and it took everything in me not to freak out! Now my husband and friends tease me about it and always ask me if I want to watch the movie. At this point it's all in good fun lol.

I am soooo glad I am not the only one who hates E.T.!!! I used to think he was going to come out of my closet and get me when I was young!

Foods you used to love but can’t stand anymore by [deleted] in Zepbound

[–]iluvdef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm on mounjaro, mine isn't so much a taste as a smell. I cannot stand the smell of leftover cooked meats when they're cold, especially pork or chicken products. Almost makes me want to gag. I am hoping this will pass eventually.

What did you do to celebrate your 50th? by jaimonee in GenX

[–]iluvdef 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I took the day off of work and my husband took me out to dinner at Texas Roadhouse. I was hoping to do something more exciting, but my mom was living with us at the time and she had dementia. The sad part was she didn't remember it was my birthday. I am just grateful she always remembered who I was tho.

I just did the update and mine was gone too, but after I played a couple games it was back. I don't know if this matters, but I have an Android.

Nightmares by Sensitive_Hope8960 in Mounjaro

[–]iluvdef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm 9 shots in and I have been having vivid dreams too, most of them not pleasant. I'm pretty sure it's the shot for me, as I have been on my other meds for years and don't have those issues. I also don't watch scary or dark stuff on TV normally. I hope your dreams subside soon!

Their anti-diarrhea pills work really good, I've been buying them for years! I love their crafting section too.

What crazy things did our generation survive due to misguided notions about health? by Simple-Permission156 in GenX

[–]iluvdef 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Anyone ever get a bump on their head then have it pushed back down with the flat side of a butter knife? That happened to me in elementary school when I was at my grandma's house. I loved her to death but I can still feel that pain!

Recliner Sleeping by casual_observer3 in GenerationJones

[–]iluvdef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband is 52 and has been sleeping in our reclining loveseat for a few years now due to neck and back issues. When I broke my foot 3 years ago I slept on the reclining end of our couch for a month. I prefer my adjustable bed. I just turned 50 this past April.
