2024 Kia Sorento X-Pro Transfer Case Issue
Bought a new 2024 Kia Sorento X-PRO (Canada) in July 2024. After about 1000kms, I noticed a noise when I reversed the vehicle and applied power. The noise was like dragging gravel. The dealership did not know what the issue was initially. They found the transfer case fluid was low, and that it contained "sparkles", or tiny pieces of metal. They now have to replace the whole transfer case.

What happened??
I have the X-Line EX with FWD. This is my 4th Sorento. It started out bad…. Within an hour of buying it the check engine light came on. Did the usual, checked gas cap and it stayed on. Called to get appt. but nothing available for 3 weeks, they said unless the light is flashing it’s no big deal. The next day tire goes flat. The following day windshield cracks. I think this thing has a curse on it. It needed a fuel sensor. Fixed it. Driving to vacation it loses power, feels like it shifted into neutral. Dealer says can’t find anything wrong. When I start the car (car in Park, Parking brake on and foot not on gas pedal) it feels like it lurches forward, car actually rocks. When I proceed to put it in drive and start out slowly it feels like it’s chugging along, not a smooth glide. I’m truly confounded by all of these issues. When it’s cold outside ALL guages light up and infotainment system won’t work. Any time it rains or is cold the Driver Assist quits and the parking sensors quit. Rear view camera is always foggy even if I wipe it off every time I get into the car. I drive in the Economy setting. Horrendous gas mileage. I’m sick of buying gas all the time….. my last Sorento would sometimes get 42 mpg, this one varies between 17 and 23. I’m OVER this car. It’s a beautiful car but too many issues. I see there’s a recall, hopefully it’ll fix the mileage.
Very happy owner
Bought the SX Prestige model and am very pleased - feels luxurious, has good performance and is perfect size/utility for my family of four (2 teenagers). My only gripe is that the turbo engine has to be pushed hard off the line, but otherwise performs great. Still early in its life, but very happy so far

Kia Sorrento SX
I love my new car! I am 5’0 so it’s hard for me to get good visibility in SUVs but this car is easy to see and very easy to drive. I especially love the captains chairs and my third row for my kids or their friends. Adults fit comfortably in the third row as well as long as the captains chairs are moved up a little.
