I had one of those engines. 6 month wait for a rebuilt one where I couldn’t drive my car. Got the new engine, and the same problem developed a mere WEEK later. I basically had to walk from a freshly paid off car and get another car loan :( they have decades of proving themselves to do before I’d ever even consider buying one again. I fell for the “but their quality has really improved” BS once now.
I felt so bad telling people what the situation was. Ya’ll got screwed so hard.
I think the best they can do is the Genesis line. I only say that because looking at how they are engineered is leagues better than Hyundai/Kia. They are more like a German car than an Asian car. I still wouldn’t own one though.

Their expected reliability is lower.
