Hi, Just called dealer and the service rep indicated the part will not arrive until mid august. Ouch! Again, I asked for a loaner, he said the part has to be back ordered for 5 days to get a loaner. I reminded him that he has the car a week now since June 28. VERY disappointing. He then said...

Hi Kia dealer called back. The OBC will be replaced under warranty. However, there are no replacement parts in Canada, so it has to come from Korea. Still waiting to find out a date. I also called Kia Canada about the Bosch charger. They said I have to speak with the Manager at the dealer...

Hi I just spoke to the dealer. They indicated that there was recall (some years ago) for the OBC and mine was fine. Now there saying because the the recall was done, the OBC may not be covered by the warranty. This is crazy! The dealer will call me tomorrow after everything is sorted with Kia...

Hi all, I have a 2016 Soul EV in Canada. At the time of purchase we did not have UVO services in Canada, but they did have in USA. Recently UVO services became available in Canada. From another post I read that our radio's are missing a part for UVO to work (maybe the cellular interface). I was...

Hi, Twice it happened recently that when I press the volume up on the steering wheel the volume goes down. And when I press the volume down on the steering wheel, the phone dialer opens. I turn the radio off and on and then it seems to work again. Thoughts? Thanks! Terry

I forgot to mention one thing... the bore hole... On the CRV it is smaller than on the Soul. So the old rims will not fit... Wanna buy some slightly used wheels and winters for a CRV? Cheers! Terry

Hi all, I leased my Kia Soul in Quebec Canada. We get a 8000$ rebate from the gov. Unfortunately we do not get fabulous lease deals like they do in the USA (eg: $299). However, Our interest rates are low enought that it competes with buying if you need to borrow to buy. At the end of my 4 year...

Hi all, I called Kia Canada about the new map (v10). I did ask about eServices in Canada. They told me its all about the language. Needs to be translated into French for Canada before they can give it away. I said I would volunteer my translation services :) I asked if it comes in...
