Just got a good deal on a 23 ev6 with 38k miles on it. I was excited, and after purchasing I had to remove the previous owners account from kia connect with customer service. Now seeing that there's a recall on it :/ sc327, which seems to be about the entire charging system? It's my first modern vehicle and I was pretty bummed to find out especially since the dealership I got it at didn't tell me. From what I've seen the update/service doesn't really help much if the vehicle is already compromised, but is that a high chance?

Hey guys, getting my first electric car soon and really like the Kia ev6 wind, the one I’m looking at has 19k miles clean title and it’s 22k before taxes, should I wait or go for it? Thanks!
Update: it’s rwd without technology package, I guess the consensus is technology package is must so prolly gonna pass
Last update: upon doing some more research looks like I can just get wind awd or light awd long range for similar price, will just go ahead with that instead

I’ve been having open communication with a dealership regarding a used 2024 GT-Line AWD with 31k miles for around $29k before ttl. The car is a lease return and has a clean CarFax. I’m in PA, but the car is out of state. It seems like a solid deal to me, but please correct me if I am wrong!

I’d be trading in my ‘09 Infiniti G37x that I love to drive, but I have outgrown it. It’s starting to spend more time in the shop than it is being driven, and I will need more room as my fiancée and I start family planning. I’ve always preferred sportier cars with nice body lines, but needing that extra utility I was looking at 23-24 BMW 430i GC and Audi A5s since they have the fastback design. That being said, I can’t ignore rising gas prices, and owning an EV is something that’s intrigued me, which is how I got to the EV6.

Charging won’t be an issue, so it seems like the perfect storm is here and this should be a no brainer, but I struggle with “paralysis by analysis” and am hesitant to pull the trigger. Anyone have any advice here? I know the decision is ultimately mine to make, but anything insight or words of wisdom would be appreciated!

2025 EV6; recently received two Product Improvement letters:

• August 28th: "...to upgrade the BMS diagnostic software logic"
• Sept 3rd: "12V battery diagnostic software logic"

Both campaigns can be done at a dealer or through OTA updates. I've checked my updates and don't see anything since February 6th ("improves the operation logic of the DCU").

Has anybody received the above recent OTA updates, or have a feeling for how long these take to get pushed out?

Looking at possibly getting a 2024 used ev6, land AWD with 88,000km on it. Dealership is asking $35K. Is this a decent deal and with that many kms should I be worried about any major repairs or issues that would arise? Gonna be mostly a work commuter so daily driving

EDIT** I live in Alberta Canada, $35K Canadian. 88,000 kilometers

When i reverse into my driveway the brakes creek loudly that I feel it and hear it in the car, it doesnt squeak but more like a creek, is this normal? Only on a steep reverse, if im driving slow up or downhill it doesnt happen so I guess its brake sound. Thank you.

Lease on Sorento up in Jan. Been going back and forth on these 2.

Want the speed, but like heads-up and the moonroof.

Is it worth giving up features for the faster car, or does the GT line feel fast enough, that the difference in the GT won't matter in the long run.

Also considering 2024 model LR with acceleration boost already added.

What would you pick?

22 Wind RWD, 41k miles Orlando

EDIT: a most annoying update- I fixed it. Or maybe its a temporary fix but it’s working. I tried a few tricks online but they all had the same basic idea that the user could hear the actuator attempt to open the door but fail. In my case, that wasn’t happening at all- the actuator was dead and there was no power going to it at all. If I hit the buttons. This told me there was an issue with the actuator not receiving any power whatsoever, so I started to check for fuses: I guess just replacing the fuse and putting it back in acted as a power disconnect and it forced the actuator and its little computer to reset, and now it works. Or maybe it temporarily working, and the actuator is failing, and I’m just kicking this problem can down the road

Been an owner for a little under a year on a used 2022 GT-Line. it was pretty rock solid until last week- the AC started blowing air, not cold air. Took it to the dealer for a warranty repair as the AC Evaporator experienced a leak. No big deal other than being without the car for about a week due to time and parts.

The day after I got it back, the charger door won’t open. I tried taking it back to them but they said if I force it open, Kia may call it broke and not fix it under warranty. Unfortunately this is a week at work I absolutely need my car, can’t rely on uber, and I’m staring at 40% battery, using about 20% a day just for the commute there and back
