What warranty?

I bought a second hand Picanto still only 24000 miles and to be honest I am quite happy with it. The first experience with Bolton Kia some while ago regarding warranty was the issue with the auto shut down when you stop at the lights, I was told you need to run it at over 50 for a period of time to fully charge the battery; after a 240 mile run it still wont work and the dealer is still uninterested' but the real problem is that the battery is not good enough. My latest problem is that all the alloys have started corroding. I did some research and it does seem to be an issue with diamond cut alloys and that dealers would blame it all on you saying it is stone chips and kerbing; as expected that is exactly what they said and told me that they would not even pass it on to Kia. The lad who examined it said "if you had bought it from us we would have done something about it" There is not much point in advertising a 7 year warranty if they will not honor it.
