Kia Sorento

""Ill be driving and listening to a book. Suddenly, the display goes blank and nothing works. I have to wait until I shut the car off and restart it before things are working again.""

""While driving with cruise control activated, the system suddenly disengaged and stopped functioning. At the same time, the following appeared on the dashboard: warning icons and a message stating, Check Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist System. There is a problem with the Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist System sensor and I got an estimate of $2500 to $3000 to fix.""

"Electronic antenna failed causing very poor reception and static. (AM and FM/FM-HD)"

"High pressure fuel pump (GDI) replaced twice. Dumping rich fuel multiple times burned out the catalytic convertor. Dealership refused to replace at their expense even though they agreed the GDI failures were the cause."

"Fuel leak"

"Fuel pump pressure was high. Had you be replaced"

"We were told the Front-right CV Axle boot needed replacing."

""Front Axle boots became loose and leaked oil, noted groning on turning the front wheels""

""I had problems while driving using the Comfort drive setting, I have switched to the Smart drive setting.""

"The car needed a boost every morning"

"Door handle button failure"

"Trailer wiring as purchased with the vehicle. Wiring failed almost immediately on initial use. Prevented using the vehicle for boat towing until it was later identified as part of a recall."

""Alternator failed and was not charging battery. Expensive repair, of course not covered by warranty.""

"Car would not turn off"

"The left front strut mount failed and created a disturbing noise that. Identifying this problem took a lot of time and effort at the dealership - which affected my confidence in their ability to properly diagnose such issues."

"Right rear wheel began making noises. Primary driver, spouse, did not hear the noise. Problem was caught at a car check up in early May. 968 repairs to Wheel Bearing assembling and bearing and hub ass ($562.25 parts for that) other costs were from the labor"

"The oil pressure light kept going on and kia insisted that it was the sensor but continued after The $780 repair. Now it is not burning enough oil to change engine"

""Car goes through a quart of oil about every 600 miles with no major leakage, no spots under car, no burning oil smell. There was a minor leak at the valve cover gasket that was fixed but oil consumption barely changed. Dealership says it is normal but we could have an oil flush and consumption diagnostic test run for $1600. Seems to be a common issue with these engines from what I have read. Very disappointed with this and how the dealership has handled it.""

"I drive lots of major highways and city roads where there is a lot of breaking. I think the calipers did well for my driving."

"Vehicle stuck in park. Needed to use shift unlock override everything Vehicle put into Park."

"Squeeking when going over speed bumps slowly. Not present with other vehicle we own over the same bumps. Very difficult to diagnose. Ended replacing shocks and struts without solvong the problem completely."

""We started noticing a slipping of the gears and the check engine light went on. At 88,000 my mechanic hooked up a machine and it providednthe code about problems with the transmission. Light went off because he turned it off and I avoided bringing in until the problem resurfaced at 105,000 miles at which point kia mechanic told me it needed to be replaced and it was out of warranty. We had to pay for the replacement which was $3700. In addition they told us about a problem on the back wheel suspension which we also had replaced.""
