Love love love the Sorento
Comfortable and looks great. I love the interior. The controls are very easy to use. Fuel mileage isn't the best but using higher grade fuel I notice I get better fuel mileage. The pick up once fuel pedal is pressed is awesome.this car " gets on it " fast. VERY comfortable and quite ride. My car is loaded with all the features. Sound system is far above normal .

Cannot see Speedometer needle in bright light
My 2012 Sorento was great so I traded to 2014 when time came. The auto dim feature of the instrument cluster makes it difficult and at times impossible to see speedometer needle. Kia says it is "working as designed" "Kia cannot help you" It is bright with no problems at night/in garage and on cloud/stormy days. Since design features are not covered by warranty Kia America refuses to address the matter. 7 others have filed same complaint with National Safety Board. I must get rid of the car before i have an accident while trying to locate my speed. Also window shade rattles "no adjustment can be made". Will be my last Kia. Update: Unfortunately I still have the car but have saved enough to get an end of season 2016 or early 2017 of something other than KIA. KIA claims there are no sensors for the speedometer needle. However, wrapping the entire cluster panel leaving only a tiny hole to observe shows there to be a sensor somewhere but I am unable to find it. It is not a reflection issue. The car is unsafe to drive as I cannot see the speedometer needle on bright or sunny days. In my opinion KIA is very unresponsive and not customer friendly. Update2 Unfortunately still have car ... issues have not changed.... finally have saved up enough for a 2017 and currently am car shopping...looks like I may go with Toyota. Update 3...Finally got rid of car...got a Toyota Highlander that I have no problem with reading the speedometer. It is unfortunate that Kia chose not to address the issue and very very customer unfriendly. Would not even acknowledge that there was a sensor controlling the needle. Had to be one as the brightness changed going in and out of garage......but I could not locate it. Feel much safer in my new vehicle.

My 2nd Sorento
I originally had a 2012 Sorento that I travel in for my work. The vehicle was very comfortable, a pleasure to drive, no fatigue after a long road trip, I liked my 2012 Sorento. When it came time to trade I went back to the same dealer I purchased my 2012 Sorento from and they showed me the 2014. WOW! I really liked it. The 2014 Sorento looked like the 2012 but the changes that Kia made a a very good vehicle into a great vehicle. My 2014 is is much quieter, hardly any road noise and 0 wind noise, the ride is great, the new seats are even more comfortable and the general overall appearance is just great. The Bluetooth and voice command are also flawless! You wont be sorry with a Kia!
My interview with God
Long story short. My first Kia, first front wheel drive, My first accident. Purchased my Sorento in late 2016. I moved to Idaho in Sept, 2018, I was on my way home from Boise to Challis, hit black ice, before I knew it, I was off the pavement, knew I was in trouble!! I cant describe in words, what I felt, only the sound of trees and metal, then AIR BAGS, then silence. I remember laughing at myself, foot hard on brake pedal, hands trying to steer. I let go screamed "JESUS TAKE THE WHEEL". Im alive today because of my car, Im a miracle. airbags saved me. Her name was Milly, Ive never cried over a car. I just purchased a 16 SXV6, very beautiful. Know im safe in a Kia.
