• Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my SUV" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your leather interior, please post in the Interior section - and so on...

Order In + A Couple Questions

cracked windshield...going to have to wait till the spring/summer when all the sand salt is done...good thing insurance covers glass in MA
 
Picked it up this morning...put the smartliner floor mats in, the toughpro cargo mat, the car seat and all the other items she had in her car before...set up the seat memory settings and parked it in the garage...fit pretty well...still have to go through all the controls and settings but she likes it which is what matters
I'm considering this exact combination - wondering how it's been working out for you? We are between the canadian cargo and the toughpro that rolls. We will have the 3rd row down most of the time but do use the back seats here and there, and need something easly to move around (but want full coverage when down.) Just concerned about duravility of both of these and curious how they compare.. thanks!

Take a look at Canvasback before you decide. It's durable, waterproof, heavy duty and it velcros to seat backs. I have the full back liner and I leave my 3rd row folded down almost all the time. But it splits the fabric to accommodate the 40-60 fold if you have either or both seats up in back. Individual covers go on the back of the 2nd row captain's chairs. I love this product!

Thanks - the style is great and probably ideal for general use - but we need the more rubbery/heavier material unfortuntaely :( The weathertech etc material has held up in our last 2 vehicles but they weren't 3 rows. They need to make a tuxmat in the canadian style! The canadian is perfect but just seems slightly thinner/less rugged than the others...

we like it...if the canadian one was cheaper i probably would have gone with that but i have no issues with the toughpro other than it's not terribly flexible rubber to roll up tight...you can roll it up loosely...but it's def durable and i like that it catches everything...will be very handy this beach season and so much easier to pack the telluride vs playing jenga in the back of my legacy with all the beach gear

Thanks - it was a lot for sure ($280) but went with the canadian and tuxmats. The tuxmat videos convinced me (but I think both are great options!)

what does your post have to do with this thread?...this is my thread...about my car...i put everything here to document and date everything...and this forum doesn't allow the editing of previous posts after a certain amount of time so i can't edit/update the original post or the thread title to say that this thread has morphed from a research/shopping thread into a thread about everything concerning my car, nor would i care to bother mods to do that for me

Why didn't you take it to dealership under warranty? I'd be afraid they won't honor warranty now that you have altered it.
 
You shouldn't have to in the first place as it shouldn'tbe rusting, but there is always powder coating or high heat enamel spray.

True, but he's spending his time and money when Kia should be absorbing those costs.

Agreed, which is why I stated that he shouldn't have to in the first place. 👍🏻

what did i alter?...did i alter my dashboard by cleaning it also?

exactly...the problem is you can't just take it off paint it and put it back on cause that's what i would have done

15 minutes with products and tools i already had...not really a big deal on my end...it's a cosmetic item that doesn't affect the performance and the car is driven in new england where we have snow and road salt...it doesn't seem like it's worth the hassle to deal with a dealer that's 20 miles from home and i would have to pay for gas to get there and back...also have not read of anyone on here getting the dealer to fix this issue either and i don't really want to waste my time trying to be the first

Agreed, which is why I stated that he shouldn't have to in the first place. 👍🏻

yup...if they put quality parts on the cars i wouldn't have to...broken windshields and rusting exhaust tips in under a year is what you get with a kia i guess

Actually, you can take off the exhaust and spray with enamel. Several threads on the forum showing step by step. 👍🏻
