Hello fellow peeps...

[BuckeyeSVT]

New owner of a 2020 Kia Stinger GT2 AWD, just turned 16,000 miles and really like it. Reading a lot of posts here and figured it was time to join and participate. Had a heck of a time trying to buy one a few months ago. First bought a Canadian model 2020 Panthera Metal GT2 AWD which had zero warranty stateside - And returned it. Found my Snow White Pearl about 3 hours away in another state and had to have it. It was Certified Used but that was a joke and the dealer only cared about making a buck (more on that later if anyone cares to know the dealer and situation). I had a few service issues that my local Kia dealership resolved (with the Kia Field Service Rep) - Mainly a rattle from the windshield sunroof area that required some spot weld manipulation to correct. It's silent as a church now aside from really hard sharp bumps making the hatch chatter. I can live with that, the first rattle was constant and annoying! Anyhow, glad to be here and see what everyone else is doing with theirs! I'm in NE Ohio and looking forward to meeting up with others if there's a local group.

The original Stinger replaced a 2020 Ford Edge ST (which I grew to dislike pretty rapidly after purchase).

I will check out the regional section later.

Welcome. There's a few topics and various fixes you can try for the hatch rattle. Forum search should point you in the right direction.
