The Hot Rod of the Kia lineup, the Kia Stinger is one of the most engaging, fun to drive vehicles on the road today. A mid-sized four-door sedan, with great handling and road manners, it is the slickest Kia yet and about as sharp as a scorpion. Get it? Yep.

At Mid Rivers Kia, we get it, too. That's why we recommend bringing it to us so we can make sure it is being maintained properly by our Kia factory-certified mechanics.Powered by a choice of 2.0-liter Theta turbocharged inline four-cylinder or a 3.3-liter twin turbocharged Lambda V-6 Engine, both engines feed their power to Kia-built eight-speed automatic transmissions. The choice of whether you carry friends and family or just a single significant other are totally up to you. Just get in and do it. And when it comes time to take care of your Mid Rivers Kia Stinger, we know you will want to have a factory-trained specialist lead the charge. That's why we recommend you bring it to the service department at Mid Rivers according to the service schedule as published by Kia Motors America. No one knows your Stinger like the mechanics at Kia of Mid Rivers.

The Kia service intervals occur in multiples of 6,000 miles or 12 months, whichever comes first. The first of these start at…wait for it…6,000 miles! At these intervals your Kia service technician will start with a drain and replacement of the synthetic motor oil in the engine, along with a new oil filter. We have found through experience that synthetic oil is able to withstand the rigors of high heat and humidity, in addition to being able to fight thermal breakdown that may be encountered by today's modern engines. At this time, your Mid Rivers Mechanic will change the in-cabin air filter, and then perform an inspection on the vacuum hose, brake lines and connections, disc brake pads and rotors, steering gear, suspension bits, and the air conditioner coolant. Finally, the whole process is wrapped up with a tire rotation so that all four tires are wearing evenly throughout the vehicle.

Before you know it, you'll be at 18,000 miles. Once again, we will change your synthetic oil and oil filter. Then, it's time for your Mid Rivers mechanics to perform a tire rotation and a series of more extensive  inspections, which will include the engine and in-cabin air filters, the intercooler, including its in and out hose and air intake hose. The inspections continue with the air conditioning coolant and compressor, brake pads, rotors, hoses and lines, and vacuum hoses, the drive boots, the exhaust system and the complete power steering system. Then you're on your way.

At the 24,000-mile mark, it's the proper time a seeing-to that includes a synthetic oil and filter change, a tire rotation, and the replacement of the engine air filter and in-cabin air filter. The mechanics at Mid Rivers will also check the power steering fluid, an inspection of fuel lines, a check of the vacuum hoses, fuel hoses, vapor hoses and the fuel filter cap, and finally, a multi-point inspection that tops off all vital fluids, and makes sure all service campaigns and recall notices have been taken care of.


The 30K service is a large mark in the life of your Kia Stinger. We think at that point, you are just reaching your break-in point with your Kia Stinger. As a result, there's more to go over, starting with your regularly-scheduled tire rotation and synthetic oil change. Did you know that staying on top of your Stinger's service schedule could actually end up saving you money? In addition to the oil change and the tire rotation, your Mid Rivers service technician will perform an inspection of hoses, A/C coolant, brake pads and rotors, brake lines and calipers, the steering system, suspension components, the parking brake, and more. And of course, we can't forget to replace the engine air filter, in-cabin air filter and the fuel filter.

This alternating light/heavy style maintenance program will continue through the life of your Stinger vehicle. The Kia mechanics in our service department, will even go so far to suggest if your Stinger spends a fair amount of time driving through extreme conditions like stop and go traffic, up and down mountainous grades or cruising through the desert heat, that you should change your oil more frequently. That may be as soon as 3,000 miles!

The Undisputed Truth: if you feel your Kia Stinger beginning to drifting out of your lane while you attempt to drive straight, chances are you need an all-wheel-alignment. The service experts at Mid Rivers Kia are able to quickly evaluate your Stinger's situation and then prescribe the proper fix. They will even suggest you have your tires rotated beforehand so they will be properly fitted before being aligned. Contact your Mid Rivers Kia service advisor and your Kia Stinger Owner's Manual for more information.

Unfortunately tires won't last forever. Until one is made that can last the life of your Kia Stinger, we will be forced to fend for ourselves every 35,000 miles or so. By constantly monitoring their treadlife, you will know where they stand. There's a simple test that anyone can do and best of all, it will only cost you a penny! With the "Abe Lincoln Penny Test" allows you to place a penny with #16 on it (Lincoln was our 16th president!) Place the penny headfirst into the tire tread. If Abe ends up with rubber to his ears, you have plenty of tread remaining. On the other hand, if you can see the top of his head, get a new set of meats on right away! Your Mid Rivers Kia parts and service department has the correct replacement tires for your Stinger and all at competitive market prices. As we keep exclaiming, bald only looks good on babies, bald eagles and some old men.

Generally, windshield wipers on any car get no respect. They are used a few times a month, and then you forget about them, until the next time. Except they might podwer up or have become hard and brittle. But the bottom line is they are one of the most important pieces of safety equipment on your new vehicle. They get the elements from all sides: high heat and humidity, or extreme cold. The heat breaks them down, while the extreme cold can simply break them. If yours are squeaking and creaking or moaning and groaning, that means it's time for a change. The Mid Rivers Kia Parts department suggests changing them every six months. Come in today. Mid Rivers Kia has exactly what you need!
