I stand corrected. Cool, thanks for the info. Yes, they have improved their cars quite alot in a relative short time in this highly competitive market. They deserve the credit.

Neither of these 'fit and finish' issues were enough to dissuade us from going forward with the purchase, mainly due to the outstanding warranty. They agreed to replace the wiper arm on ours when we take it in for the free maintenance at 3k mi.

And as far as child labor, maybe I'm exaggating a bit, but Koreal labor laws and conditions are nowhere near Japanese or American.
I find this really offensive.

Perhaps you should learn to hold what you're going to say before you go and offend people on this board. You can make an educated and respectable comment on the carmaker without having to mock them and the country's people in that manner.

Your posts are childish and ignorant.
