Good Van. Great Value (if you buy used).

Bought the van with 33,000 miles for $17k. The car drives nice, performs well and is comfortable. The only thing about the van that is not great is it audio system. We now have 40,000 miles on it & it has had both of its motors replaced for the sliding doors ( via a recall). When we bought it last year consumer reports had its reliability rating and 5/5. For some reason, consumer reports now has it rated as a 3/5 for reliability. We will see how this particular van plays out for us. I will continue to update you folks. Update June 2022: 50k miles and absolutely no issues. We bought some michelin defender tires for it and they are much better than the original Korean tires. Fantastic vehicle!

Dead engine at 68k

We purchased a certified used 2016 Kia Sedona. We loved it but a mere 2 years in with only 68k miles on it, it died! Complete engine failure. We have had it maintained regularly through Kia. There were no lights or warning signs prior to this happening. We are out of warranty and Kia refuses to take responsibility for the crap vehicle they sold. We were told no loaner car is available because they are all out on major engine repairs. After charging us $95 to diagnose the problem they told us there is "no good will available". What kind of engine dies at 68k miles!? It's not ok! I will never purchase another vehicle from them again. Be warned.

With small kids this is a dream. I previously had a 2015 Dodge Journey and I'll tell you what, the Sedona is a luxury ride compared to that. The Sedona has so much room, easy to get my kids in and out of car seats, the air conditioning works excellent in the back seats which is so important for me since I live in Phoenix, AZ. We have the 8 passenger, so we never need to have the rear seats up and that leaves up with a lot of cargo room. It rides smooth, handles nicely and is comfortable. My only complaints are, I already had one of the motors replaced on the rear sliding door. (mine is a 2016 with 18,000 miles) Without a warranty it would have been over $1,000 at the dealership I went to. Also, The sound system is beyond cheap.. totally poor quality & there is no navigation and no power lift-gate (which I feel should be standard on a minivan) All in all my husband and I were those people that said we would never drive a mini van yet we are both bummed we didn't purchase this before we wasted money when we bought the dodge.

Put 100K trouble free miles on my 2012 and it was running and looked just like new. Got the bug for a newer one and a deal popped up on a 20K mile 2016 LX with the features I missed. Now at 55K miles with new tires it handles and is every bit as reliable as my 2012 was. Tracked mileage since I've owned it and getting a consistent 24 mpg urban driving. Ride is carlike and heated seats are perfect for a really bad back. Love it! Update: 65K miles and everything same - same. Replacement Goodyear tires quieted ride down and awesome grip in the wet. No change in gas mileage. I may keep this car forever.

It will be loaded with extras that you have to pay more for in other manufacturers vehicles. Whatever version you get it will give you value and reliability, this is just the most practical van you could hope for I am also blown away by the 22 mpg I am getting with a van.
