Used 2011 Kia Sedona Minivan Consumer Reviews
Not with your money
I purchased a Sedona new in june 2011, from day one I had nothing but small problems with it and the dealer just didn't seem to know how to fix it. First the radio had a mind of its own, when playing the cd, it shutoff and played the radio, when playing the radio it changed stations, some times it even shut off completly.Eighteen months later and a total of 12 days in the shop and a replaced radio(so they said) it was still broken. Some of the other problems bad idle pully, bad batteries, loose ground wires preventing the windows or locks to work and one dealer wanted 450 to fix. nothing but headaches finally traded it in at 18 months and loss $8000 in the process.
Traded in an F150 King Ranch for the Sedona
That's right. My wife's 2002 Kia Sedona was starting to get a little old in the tooth. But instead of trading it in on the 2011, I decided to trade in my 2006 King Ranch for it. Hey, the King Ranch was beautiful, but the Sedona gets 10 more mpg, hauls the kids AND the groceries and doesn't cost so much to maintain (tires, repairs, etc.) So she drives the new Sedona (safer and more dependable than the '02) and I carpool in the old Sedona. The 'o02 had a $1000 repair (AC) a few months back, but that has been the only repair in over 9 years. My wife LOVES the 2011...the kids too!!!

2nd To Best Car I Have Ever Owned!
People give KIA Motors dirt about how their build quality is horrible and that they are a piece of junk but ill tell you something this minivan is the the 2nd best car i have ever owned! I purchased mine at Jim Click Kia and the sales people are just the best! Hey its a minivan you cant expect excellent fuel mileage! The price is unbeatable I paid 25k for mine loaded and the power doors have never gotten stuck no problems at all! power everything! for 25k? WOW KIA really out did themselves with the product! The engine is super strong!! and it is very hard to drive this car with a light foot because the power is always there! shifts smooth as butter just if you need a mini van! take a look
2011 Kia Sedona van is a winner!
Probably the best most reliable used mini van on the market. Unlike Odyssey unbalanced weight fast wear on tires, the Sedona does not have this issue. I haven't had any major repairs since 2014 when we bought it used now at 184k miles. Alternator, pumps, all suspension (shocks, ball bearings etc.) are stock. The 3.5l engine can still burn rubber and does 22-23 combined mpg. Great room inside. While I do agree w/review that some interior parts are somewhat cheap looking, it's held up and cleans off nice. I still get calls from Kia to trade the Van in with a decent down payment they will give me, but it's been great to us and cheap to own. We move & travel with our dogs, musical band equipment, furniture, beds, people mover up to 9 to the Eagles SB parade one time, it's versatility is top notch too. Highly recommended, still amazes me.
