Sorento Cooling System Tank Leaking

Cooling sys. tank leaking

Written by: wjl7110 on Nov 07, 2009 00:23 PM

I've got one I wouldn't believe...2003 Kia Sorento, The plastic expandtion tank for the cooling sys. It started to "weep" from the bottom. After taking apart the air cleaner and plumping for that, it seemed that was indeed the problem. Now for the other unbelievable part, I went to the dealer, expecting to pay $100 and order the part and then wait two weeks. But ... Read More...

Kia Sorento Lights and Bulbs

Can't get tail lights to work

Written by: kandiskia on Oct 16, 2009 06:14 PM

I have a 2003 Sorento that I have been having some electrical problems with. The tailights are both out, but the brake lights still work. I changed the bulbs on both sides, checked the fuses and had a Kia dealer check the wiring. They said they don't know what is causing the problem, but that it could be the electronic control module. Has anyone else had this problem? ... Read More...

Written by: pigdoc on Oct 01, 2009 08:03 PM

I purchased a 2003 Kia Sorento new and have owned it since (daughter drives it). I've had no problems with it, now at 50k. Regular oil changes and filter changes have been done at various shops (Sears, JiffyLube, etc) since closest dealer is 50 miles away. If I need warranty work done on the 10/100k, what records will be required to satisfy the dealer? I just got a ... Read More...

The lack of good service is a bummer. I really, really like my Sorento, but how can I justify buying another Kia if this is the best their service department can do? I will admit to being spoiled. We used to go through this with American made cars (over, and over, and over with every car), until 1990. That is the year my wife decided on a Nissan Stanza. When she traded ... Read More...
