Super Reliable and versatile

This car has been fantastic for us. Not a single major problem. We added over 100k miles to it, and couldn't have been happier. It was super versatile in hauling people, or removing and stowing seats and using it to haul cargo or take camping. Highly recommend.

Great, reliable car

Drove it off the lot 11 years ago and have only had to replace a flywheel about 4 years ago, first and only problem

I love this van!

Great power, roomy interior, and comfortable ride. Looks great for a minivan. I am not a fan of minivans but this one is more like an SUV with the comfort and roomy interior of a van. Very reliable and pretty good gas mileage for the power you get!

One of the most reliable cars I have owned

Great car; reliable, plenty of room for the 4 kids, good gas mileage. This car helped us make several trips to Pa and Fl. It just cruised down the highway providing us a very comfortable ride and room for the kids to stretch out and take their naps.

Great little minivan

My Kia Sedona minivan has all the features I wanted and has great styling. The V6 motor has plenty of power and the transmission shifts smoothly. Plenty of seating for any family and lots of safety features.

Huge, comfy, and nice-looking

I loved the cargo space, interior finishes, and features - especially the powered quarter panel windows and velvety soft upholstery. It had plenty of power and handled well. Unfortunately, it was not too reliable - starting with numerous recall issues and ending with complete engine failure at 163,000 miles. Liked it so well that I replaced it with another Sedona from a later model year. Just hoping it lasts longer than the first.

Good for tall family

My growing family of 7 tall people fit well, for now. With three of us over 6'1" sitting in the back it's getting tighter. Great leg and head room in the back captains chairs and plenty of room to haul all our stuff even with a full vehicle.

Good reliable family van much cheaper than Toyota

I've had good luck with this van. It's had a few minor electrical issues but overall a very reliable vehicle.

Ultimate Road-trip vehicle

This has been our family vehicle for the last 5 years. Never needed any major repairs and we've owned the van from 102k - 160k miles. Interior is simple compared to other major brand minivans, but just enough pockets, cupholders, and compartments for our needs. Nothing fancy, but we've taken it on many roadtrips and never not had storage space enough for everything we needed to bring. Just returned from a trip with 6 adults in the van and had plenty of room. Love the deep storage in the rear. Strong engine, and a slight higher clearance than other mini-vans makes family camping easier when we get on dirt roads and I'm not afraid of bottoming out.
