Note that this only affects the US. Hyundai and Kia are fuckin excellent cars in Europe, it's just that they can get away with selling any old shite in the states due to the lack of consumer protection and the fact that them daft cunts will buy shit like TVs with advertising built in and internet that costs $100 a month lol
