Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: My 2002 kia rio cinco's timing-belt broke and caused serious damage to the engine resulting in a $2500 fee to fix the vehicle. because my timing-belt was not changed at 60000 (we have 61000 miles on the vehicle) they would not honor their warranty. i have done research on these vehicles and a lot of people have had problems with these vehicles. *jb
