Kia is much better than they used to be, but still overall trash compared to Nissan.
Is your claim anecdotal or based on studies/surveys?

According to JD Power 2020 Dependability Study, Kia was rated #13 brand (tied with Hyundai) with 132 problems per 100; and Nissan was rated #16 with 136 problems per 100.

According to Consumer Reports, 2021 Reliability Report, Nissan was rated #13 brand with a reliability score of 51; and Kia was at #15 with score of 45.

So JD Power actually had Kia being slightly better while CR had Nissan slightly better. Either way these results show they are pretty close in reliability, which is consistent with my initial thoughts.
