My red Sedona was purchased used with 60,000 miles and is used as a taxi! My customers love riding in it. The engine is so quiet. It now has 239,000 miles and is still running great! Did not do an tune up until 225,000 miles and of course kept all the other regular maintenance up, like oil, tires, etc... This one is an EX, biggest problems I am having now is the electric doors not working and can't find anyone out side the dealership to fix them! Other small stuff is headlights blow every 3 months, even replaced one whole light, sway bar links have to be replaced every year! Parts are hard to find and if you use the after market parts they don't last! Have to go online to find good parts!

I have to say I love this van. It drives great, it has a lot of pick up and go and it looks great. This is my third van I owned and my favorite. I had a Ford before and a 2004 Kia Sedona. This model is so much better than the older one by far. I'm keeping this one for a long time

The most reliable vehicle I've owned

I've owned over 20 vehicles of all different makes and types in the 22 years I've been driving and this van is by far the most reliable. We bought it almost three years ago with 162,000 miles and it now has 210,000 miles. We take it on road trips, we haul 4 kids and all their stuff and friends and it has NEVER let us down. The only repairs we've done are general maintenance of oil changes and transmission fluid changes. We had to replace the serpentine belt and the brakes but I consider that routine maintenance. Even at the age and mileage it has everything works and it still looks good. I would recommend Kia and specifically the Sedona to ANYONE. We looked at the Honda Odyssey and Toyota Sienna and they were ok but far more expensive and both of them of similar age use a timing belt which is a costly repair whereas the Sedona uses a timing chain which doesn't need to be replaced. If you need a roomy, comfortable, decent looking, and VERY reliable vehicle get this one!

Worth every penny

My wife and I have owned a Voyager and a Caravan. From the start it was one problem after another. We made the decision to try the newly remodeled Sedona. It has been by far the best minivan we have owned. The ride is very nice and the interior is roomy and very comfortable. What you get for the price beats anything out there in my opinion.

Great standard features and option packages. Great basic warranty. Hyundai and Kia have it right! Much better than Toyota Sienna and Honda Odyssey. Fuel economy could be a little better. A little bit too much road noise and ride could be a little smoother. Cup holders rattle a little. A few things could be a little better but overall a great value.
