A Kia Telluride owner came into our service bay last month after his infotainment system had been freezing and rebooting on his daily commute on I-675 between Beavercreek and Kettering for nearly six weeks.

Rachel had been driving the same category of Japanese sedan for eleven years and had never seriously considered switching brands.
