do '05 kia optima's have a history of leaking head gaskets?

my car isn't driving right and i've had several diagnostics done on it and they all say the ignition coil packs aren't creating a proper spark. i replaced the coil packs and spark plugs and it's still doing it. i was told if the antifreeze was leaking it also would not create a proper spark. what else could cause this problem?
 
What causes it is the mechanic who worked on it last didn't property torque the head bolts causing the gasket to leak.

As for the coil packs going bad it could be they were bad from the factory or they put on used packs... seen this before but try and get a 2nd opinion from another kia dealer and see what they say with outcalling each other up to save their own butts
