I've owned 4 KIA's since 2010, all nice cars. 2010 Optima, 2018 Stinger, 2019 Stinger, 2020 Niro. Only problem was the 2019 Stinger which had bad special edition yellow paint and was recalled, paint was not manufactured by Kia. I choose to get another one instead of getting it repainted. Besides the possible issue with the paint never a problem.

I’m sure plenty of folks have had good experiences, and I’m glad your cars have been reliable. There’s some confirmation bias going on too, though. You would’ve almost certainly had the same experience with at least several other brands.

But you can find similar anecdotes about every car manufacturer. I don’t find those anecdotes to be compelling reasons to disregard evidence that a manufacturer is making poor choices and/or major oversights in engineering/production.
