- Don't buy carensI bought Kia Carens in March 2023 Petrol @ 23 lacs. Every day there is one or another problem i.e., the door not opening, the air purifier not working, the window glass not closing, etc. Today while talking on the phone with one person, it showed a conference call. I bought this vehicle with precision in mind. Now after 18 months, I feel, this company should be punished.Rating parameters(out of 5)4
