Worth what you pay -- and that's a compliment
My Sorento has been mechanically reliable and served every role I needed. I knew when purchasing that it was a partial-notch below Honda/Toyota/Subaru, but I paid markedly less. It is roomier and has more gusto than the small SUVs (RAV4, CRV) but not as much room or as solid of a ride as a Pilot or a Highlander. If you know that going in, you'll be happy with it. My one ding would be quality control. A seatback and a headrest have both come apart, and I had to replace the whole radio/bluetooth/back up camera unit, which was expensive. That said, it is 5 years old, and their reputation is constantly improving.

Great SUV
Excellent vehicle, dependable, good on gas, lots of room. No complaints! Smooth ride, no mechanical issues. I've owned this vehicle for almost 5 years. One of the best vehicles I've ever owned.

Love the car. Hate the light color seats.
Looks good , dependable, good on gas. Was a good price when bought. I would buy a second Kia for my granddaughter in a few years.

This car made me a believer in Kia.
Comfortable, Reliable, Great MPG city and highway, Leg room, good cabin height, good rear storage, stylish, Great with kids - nothing stained the upholstery! I had been a lifelong Honda and Toyota owner - Made the switch initially based on comfort, options, style. Then interviewing every Sorento owner I could find. Always great feedback. Bought and never looked back!

Great features for the price.
My experience has been I get a very well equipped car for my money with Kia. The value at acquisition is there. However, the quality is a little lacking. Drive train (6 cyl) if fantastic. Plenty of power. Issues are interior fit. Plastic piece on door side of driver seat came off. The fabric headliner came off. The covers on the columns on the left and right sides of the windshields came off. Now my navigations system is not working along with my CD player. Many of these items were fixed under warranty or at a reasonable cost. But the nav system has yet to be worked on! Summary great value, great power/drivetrain, interior quality needs work. I just bought a 2017 Kia Forte again for great value.

Best vehicle I've ever had!
Comfort, style, space, fuel efficiency, functionality - it has everything we want and more! The heated seats will be put to great use in our frigid winters!
