I just bought a Kia Rondo and love it so far. I've only had it about a week but was very impressed. The Kias come with a 10 yr./100,000 mile warranty and they also have a 5 star crash test rating. Mine has curtain airbags so those in the back are protected too. ESC (electronic stability control) also comes standard with it, which greatly reduces the risk of accidents. I think the Kia has come a long way. I've read many good reviews on them too. Good luck and have fun shopping.
