safety in question

The suspension is very bad, it sounds like an old car that needs new struts and shocks when you go over a rough road. I took it back to the dealer and they said that's the way it is. I question the safety because of the suspension. I wish i could something different because of the safety issue.

I went in to decide between a Kia Sorento and the Hyundai Santa FE. I had owned each one so I assumed it would not be hard. Recently owning a C-class Benz an suffering from premium gas and mileage. I had wanted to see what Kia had to offer on the 2011 Sorento and was immediately sold after test drive. The gas and the design in and out satisfied my need. It has been two weeks and heads are still turning. I have never had a 4 cyl and was surprised at the pick up. I am on the highway everyday averaging 55 miles round trip and DC has the worst roads. Will keep consumers updated. So far I am very pleased.

Had the Sorento for almost 4 months. Everything has been great so far. It drives very well, handles well and the interior is very well designed. No complaints or problems.

Just purchased the new sorento. Looked at CR-V, Equinox, Terrain, and Toyota. These did not have features of the Kia. Nice look and decent ride. 2.4 has a sporty feel with a little rough ride over bumps, but hey this is not a Cadillac. Did not go with AWD due to review on this site. Hopefully it's decent in the snow. Just took a trip to SC and went 1700 miles. Averaged 24 mpg with last tank getting 26 mpg. Hopefully the latter continues. If you're looking for a sporty looking vehicle with great storage and features, give it a test drive. Right now if you're in the market for a new CUV or SUV, you have to give this vehicle a gander. Believe me, I never thought I would ever buy a Kia.

I purchased my Kia April 2010. The dealer suggested that we buy the Simonize package, what a mistake that was. When I picked up the car, after being simonized it still had bugs on the mirror and the front of the car. Well it gets worse, the seats were simonized as well, now every time a drop of water gets on the seat, it makes a spot. I have contacted the dealership and trying to get this resolved, so far nothing, but I'm hoping that they will fix this mess. It looks horrible and I'm very dissatisfied with the seat issue. Water stains the seats, body sweat or anything that touches the seats make spots on them.
