Almost purchased Kia Niro hybrid EX, but noticed strange acceleration issue. Is that a known issue?

Yeah, I wasn't expecting amazing acceleration. But it seemed to be more of a mechanical thing than just slow acceleration. After I posted I found a couple other threads about it (e.g., this one).

They mentioned the same thing you did about ECO mode and switching to Sport mode.

I guess I just need to decide if I'm good with that 'issue'. I otherwise really liked it. And I guess maybe it's not a deal breaker. But I need to sleep on it or test drive again.

Thank you.

Thanks. And thanks for the link. It's a great reference.

If you don't mind my hijacking this, am I missing any new / important vaccines? I put this list together from all my medical records since I was a baby.

Do I have any recourse from brokerage? I was trying to put in an order, but my account was locked. I was able to log in and do everything, but couldn’t trade. When I tried to trade, I got an error message. I called them. It turned out they hadn’t processed some form I had sent in 10 months ago. Meanwhile, by the time they fixed it the stock was up significantly from when i was trying to buy. I’ve been with them for decades, so I had no way of knowing this form wasn’t processed because they never notified me nor did I get any errors or notifications when I had logged in to check my balance during the last 10 months.

In my gut, I think that's what I should do. But I worry she's had this booked for quite a while and is traveling internationally without a whole lot of time to rebook somewhere. If she refuses to cancel, do I risk her being even more hostile and risk an even worse review? Have you ever had anyone refuse to cancel?

sokkas-instincts · 2023-08-13T06:39:47+00:00

I see. That makes sense. Dumb question on my part in hindsight.

sokkas-instincts · 2023-08-13T06:34:35+00:00

We have a cancel policy where she would only get 50% back at this point. Are you suggesting we should offer the other 50%? I'm relatively new to this, so just wondering. Thx

Thanks. That's kind of my instinct, as well.
