Hi guys, I’m new to this forum. Recently bought myself a used 2020 Kia stinger GT one all-wheel-drive. It has 48,160 miles on it currently as I am sitting in it, I’m in love with the car and I would love to be able to keep up on it and look out for any common issues or problems you guys have run into. If you have any tips for maintenance or any mod suggestions without voiding my warranty, which is 36,000 mile 36 month bumper-to-bumper I would love to hear what you guys have to say thanks in advance for your responses and I’m thrilled to be becoming a part of this community.
Common issues/problems to look out for?

the only issue I've run across in my stingers experience is coil packs as we have been talking about on another thread. if or when you get a cracked sparkplug make sure they check the coil pack too. otherwise my rides have been trouble free. keep up on kia's recommended maintenance schedule and then there will be no question about warranty work on a stock car. modding is not something I do.

Common problems? Brake pulsating, trunk rattle, rail roof cracking/fading, window trim discoloration, etc….

On the cracking spark plugs. Is this only happening on the factory installed plugs or even if you go with the HKS M45iL ???
My friend owns a 19 Stinger GT, he hasn’t had any issue besides trim discoloration. I think it’s a rock solid car, twin turbos do make me a bit nervous if it was me, but car is a lot more reliable than its European competitors in my opinion. Car has forged internals I believe so you can easily add more power without to much risk. I might get one when they’re cheaper. Just my 2 cents
