Owned a 2015 Sorrento since 2018. It's a great SUV, very comfortable and smooth quiet ride. Lots of power (v6). No issues only routine maintenance.

Bought a Kia Sorento 2015 from Corwin Ford in Pasco with

Bought a Kia Sorento 2015 from Corwin Ford in Pasco with 94k miles on it for 15k, ran for three months before the check engine light came on and it was stalling trying to accelerate, i took it into the shop and they found burnt pieces of shrapnel metal in the base of the engine and two of the 4 cylnders wouldnt fire, they told me the entire engine needs to be replaced,I have it in the kia dealer now theyre booked for a month told me they need to see for themselves to diagnose it, see if it falls under manufacturer warranty, im at a point right now where i literally dont know what to do, avoid this brand and Kia in general.

Great car - but head gasket fails

Performs nicely, cleanly, simply, low maintenance, good gas mileage, looks good, but at 157K miles I'm on an interstate highway going 70-75 mph 400 miles from home and the coolant temp suddenly shoots up. Checking it out it has a blown head gasket and is sending coolant into a combustion chamber. Bardahl head gasket fixer nor anything else won't fix it. Estimates to replace 3.3L engine are $10K US. Now I find out it is common for this to happen at 80K - 160K miles.

Sucks to have this vehicle

The worst vehicle I have ever rode in, and drove. It’s very uncomfortable and not to mention you can’t see to drive it at night. The head lights is ridiculous. I have almost wrecked multiple times due to the awful headlights.

Safety First!

I just bought a 2015 Sorento SX v6 after I was t-boned in my 2013 Sorento LX v6. I loved my 2013. It was my first black SUV which I’ve wanted since I was a kid. My children and I walked away from our accident relatively unharmed after all side airbags deployed and my car was clearly totaled. When shopping for a replacement, it wasn’t a question of what vehicle I wanted to buy after the accident. I trust the Sorento to keep my family safe and I’ll never buy another brand of SUV. It may not be flashy or overly powerful, but it is solid and one of the safest SUVs on the road. I’d recommend this vehicle to anyone and everyone.
