    I need seats cleaned or to find seat cover.

    I bought my Kia Sedona September 2003, and I would buy another Kia Sedona if I could afford it. I am having problem with the air condition, also oil leak, 2023 is the only year I had to go without air. I still have no air, but I will see when summer get near what to do. I have had to do other repairs, but it has been better than a car payment and you have to expect things to go wrong with the car, just as thing go wrong with your health. All things has to have repairs.

    Even after 15 years + 210,000 miles I love my KIA

    Bought this little van brand new off the lot. It was a good value $$-wise and after all this time, even with 2 newer vehicles to drive - I most often choose this van. It's got some age-related quirks at this point, but I don't hesitate to take in on short 50 mile road trips from time to time!!

    It's a van?

    As a people carrier this car does it job, it's not going to wow anyone with performance, the interior is comfortable and the 2nd row is pretty good with the captains chairs. Some issues, but it has 128k in miles and it's decent.

    Good for family use or weekend projects

    Seats are comfortable for long trips. Extra safety for those with car seats. Has good get-up- and go. Nice exterior body style and inside plenty of pockets, cup holders and storage. Can carry tons of groceries or supplies. Plenty of room to carry ladders, mulch, beach umbrellas, etc. Very reliable and maintenance costs have been reasonable.

    Best Mini Van I've ever owned.

    I bought a '93 Kia Sedona in 2006 with 36,000 miles on it. I really liked the way it handled. I also liked how easy it was to remove the rear seats. The three things that I didn't like were: the horrible spark plugs that it came with. The gas mileage was horrible, 16 to 19 mpg until I changed the spark plugs, then I got 18 to 22 average mpg, depending on how I accelerated. The AC went out after 180,000 miles. I drove the vehicle very hard for 184,000 miles and never had any problems with it except the AC. Mechanically it was better than the Plymouth Voyager, and Mazda MPV that I had owned previously. Never go to a dealer with it for servicing, because they lie, and the service is terrible and too expensive.
