We also suspect the odometer is off by 10% as well. I e-mailed the kia website and the kia local people called me about the speedometer issue, asked me some details and never called back. I'm assuming they know about this problem and they're just ignoring it. Otherwise, the carens is really a great vehicle.
personally, i'd think thrice, before buying that toyota brand new rack and pinion, to fix my 2003...
