BEST SUV EVER!

You can't buy any SUV for this price with all of the options and performance it offers! The 4WD system is a "true" off-road system unlike the AWD systems found on the CR-V and Pilot. The engine has tons of power and is perfect for towing my boat. The 4WD has been great for the Michigan winters and great gas mileage for an SUV. I am very impressed with my first Kia and it certainly won't be my last!
Fun SUV

I have driven my Sorento for 80,000 miles and the only things that have been repaired or replaced are the brake rotors and a wheel bearing. The power of the engine is sweet, and I average 18mpg in the city and 21-24 on the highway. The ride is smooth and the vehicle feels very solid. I chose it because of it's off-road ability also. I have driven it on numerous 4wd trails and forest service roads with no problems. I just wish that there were more off-road modifications available for them.

I've had my Sorento for 2 weeks now and I love it! It's so much fun to drive. There's plenty of room, however the vehicle itself doesn't feel too big or "trucky". It's handles great and the styling inside and out is awesome (take a look at the Lexus SUVs, aside from the emblems they're almost identical to the Sorento).
Won't buy another Kia

I purchased this brand new, traded in an 06 Acura TL because the Sorento was safer for my 3 kids with the 5 Star safety rating and the insurance was MUCH cheaper. It was a great vehicle for the first year or so, then the brake lights stayed illuminated and had to take to the dealership for repair. It has leaked oil non-stop for the last 2 years, and the dealer won't fix it. The brakes squeal like an old Pontiac, dealer says "brake dust" but no matter what I do I can't get it to stop. Two recalls in the last year...brake light switch and passenger airbag sensor. Would LOVE to trade it in, but the trade in value is zip. I owe 23K after 3 years, trade in value, less than 10. Never again!

Apparently this year's model has a known issue with the rear differential. I had to get it fixed right after I bought it, in 2013. And it's gone bad again and I am forced to have to buy a different car because the cost to replace the rear differential ($1500-$2000) is more than what the car is actually worth. The car is comfortable to drive and suited my needs to haul stuff and transport large dogs for my business. The shifting is off, though. For some reason, whenever I get up to 40mph, there is a severe stutter in the timing. I have to let off the gas for a moment, then punch it in order to get past the stutter. My mechanic friend took a look at it and thinks it has something to do with the electrical. I'm not really sure what he meant by that, though. The gas mileage averaged 20mpg. And since I ran out of gas once (for the first -- and hopefully last -- time in my life), I figured out that once the gas light goes on, you have exactly 2 gallons left (40 miles) before you run out of gas.
