Horrible vehicle almost got my family killed due to transmissions issues on the freeway less than 12,000 miles. Took the car with issues less than 4 months after purchasing the vehicle I was driving car just shut off lights on dashboard started going on and off until car just shut oof completely did not start after 30 minutes. Dealer stated they couldn’t find any faults since engine light wasn’t on there was no way on tracing the problem. Car was purchased may/19 toook to the dealer 0ct/19 second visit 2/20 car continues to jerk was going up hills slowly felt like in every stop someone was hitting me in the back. Ended up with burn oil on transmission and bad transmission after almost killing my self and my family on the freeway had to switch to the right lane cause car stop acceleration almost a truck hit us my mother was screaming I was able to move the car to the emergency lane and the truck driver stop to help us. Was a horrible and terrified situation having kids in the car as well. I contact BBB and also consumer Kia they gave the run around I took the car for the 3rd time in March because after picking up the car from the dealer and having the car sitting in my driveway I did not drive the car but the only day I drive the car to the supermarket cause was the only car available car still had the same issues. That’s when I call Kia again come to find out looking at the papers they put a used transmission on a car with less than 12000 miles. They said on that last time they were missing a sensor and reset the transmission again! I had a aneurysm in my brain this car has cost my health to go down hill very badly after February my neurologist prescribed me aimovig and I couldn’t afford it so every day I have the worse headaches ever since all this mess. I sent the corporate a certified letter they said they’ve never received the letter and of course that’s very convenience for them. They didn’t want to help me o sent them all the papers they asked me for. I was nice dealing with them but at the end not help. We decided to just turn in the car instead of continue to make payments on a car that was supposed to be safe and realizable for our family. It was just a complete nightmare!

I bought the 2019 Sorento with 7 miles on it.... yes 7 in April however 2 weeks later it was in for service for problems with breaks and rotors, computer problem while driving rpms would get stuck at 5 both up and down hills. If you do a lot of driving in stop and go traffic don’t buy this car the transmission jerks and hesitates making it feel unsafe. Spend the same amount money on a suv with a third vehicle and feel safe.

I purchased a brand new 2019 Kia Sorento in April of 2020. Less than 50 miles on it. I went with this model specifically because of the ratings from US News and World Report and this site. HOW IN THE WORLD IS IT RATED #1??? The engine and transmission are constantly malfunctioning. I have a complete malfunction at less than 4000 miles. Unreal. I bought it for the ratings and price, specifically the safety ratings. There is NO SAFETY when your car stalls in the middle of the road as a brand new vehicle. There is a class action lawsuit on this car - google it. I cannot believe the rank knowing that. Read other bad reviews - they all say the same engine/transmission issue under 4,000 miles. Service is slow and terrible. I'm hopeful my warranty will save me until I can get it traded in. Don't buy this vehicle!
Oil consumption problem

Kia Sorento 2019 is a good-looking and comfortable car. After driving for three years, it has had a lot of problems. The worst was oil consumption. I've visited the Kia dealer so many times to fix it but the problem is still the same. I've suffered a lot driving this vehicle. I never buy Kia again.
