We got our new 2012 Rio a week ago (in Australia), and the two keys smell really foul. As the key is dangling close to my face while driving, I'm getting almost nauseous and my eyes are watering. It's a chemical smell, and I'm worried that it is emanating from something carcinogenic in the plastic casing. When I put the key in my handbag, the whole bag takes on the smell.
Does anyone else have this issue? I phoned the dealership, who say that all the keys would be the same and that they haven't noticed anything. I also phoned Kia's Australian head office, who said I'm the first person to mention this.
It's really spoiling the whole experience of our long awaited new car purchase :-(
