I had this car for about a month now and have been very satisfied so far. It is fully loaded with Nav, premium sound, leather seats, sun roof, etc. I would have paid easily another $2-3K with any other competitor. Anyone who is picky about road and engine noise should stick to 6 cyl with this model. I test drove 4 cyl models, there was a BIG difference. It is worth paying the additional $1500-$2000. After driving an '02 Ford Explorer, this vehicle feels like a luxury car made from high quality materials. I liked the fact the KIA offers standard 10yr/100K mile warranty. I would have paid easily another $1500 with the competition for the extended warranty.
Happy Buyer

We researched many vehicles before deciding on the Sorento. We debated between the 4 and 6 cylinder and decided on the 4 since we did not want 3rd row seats. We took it on a trip through the PA mountains and had no problems with power. Good at acceleration and hill climbing. We averaged 27 mpg on highway and 22 mpg city. I was a little concerned about ride comfort, but after this trip found it to be more comfortable than the Grand Caravan we traded. Leather seats with lumbar support helped. The biggest drawback is the cost to replace 18 in tires when the time comes. Overall a very pleasant ride and so far we are pleased with the purchase.

Have only had my Sorento for 3 weeks, immediately started to have a thumping noise when starting the car. At times the car would move when started. Took to service, they had the car for 2 days and "never heard the noise". When I started the car to bring it home it made the noise. Was given a brand new Kia Sorento with 100 miles on it as a loaner- It cut off on me 2 times and the engine light was on when I returned to pick up my car! Problem still not resolved! Returning to service in a few days! So disappointing!

Had Kia since May. So far, It's good until it rolls onto any size road bump. Bad noisy, jarring & annoying suspension! It drives nice on smooth roads but you feel every bump to the point that you are shaken up. Camera is irritating, it blocks your vision. Radio power button stop working. Other features are commendable. Had major problems with Nationwide Dealership in Timonium MD. Very long story made short, got a call 3 wks after purchase saying I had to pay 3,800 more for my trade in. 2 mths later, they still have not paid off my trade in, which is now affecting my good credit.
Great Mid-sized SUV

Live in Colorado. Really like the power of the 6-cylinder engine in the mountains. Fuel economy is really pretty good for the type of driving I do, also. Getting about 20 MPG. Love the panoramic sunroof, audio system, and GPS. Bluetooth and Speech recognition work well also. All wheel drive has worked fine in the snow so far. Car is brand new, so there aren't a lot of accessories yet. 276 HP engine moves this along well.
