Happy Upgrade

I previously owned the 2011 Sorento. Loved it so much, that I put 175,000 miles on it. I upgraded to the 2019 Sorento. Love the heated seats, dual climate control, the 3rd row will be nice when I have a car full of people, and I love the backup camera.

The car has good power and rides smoothly.

The leg room and head room are good for bigger individuals. I wish the driver seat was wider and didn't have the upturned flares on the sides. They are firm and can be uncomfortable on long trips.

Just the car I wanted. Love it!

Have been shopping for a while and a friend told me about Kia. Went to look and fell in love with my new Sorento. Everything I wanted and my salesman made sure I knew how to navigate my dash system. Excellent!

Great car

Love all the safety features on this vehicle.The car itself is very comfortable and easy on gas. Plenty of interior room. Very good on the highway also.

Mice inside the cab of my new kia

I have had this2019 since Oct, I have killed 4 grown mice inside the cab, yes, inside, the dealer is now trying to figure out how there getting in, I'm on this post trying to see if anyone else has had this problem, I told the dealer, they must have been inside the car before I got it, my husband's $75,000 diesel gmc sits next to my vehicle in our garage, never seen a mouse anywhere..the mechanic said they are coating the wires with vegetable oil in these new vehicles, and that attracts mice,looks like they're poor design might back fire

Shocked the next day after we drove it home.

This 2019 Sorento does NOT have automatic headlights. And it doesn't have an inside button to unlock trunk !!!! You might say WE should have asked about that but this is not the 50's. We certainly never thought those items would be on a 2019 new car. We went back to dealer the next day and was told , sorry you didn't get that package. And now we have payments for the next few years. Wish we could have had 24 hours to return, but not so when you purchase a car. We are in our 70's and automatic headlights should be on EVERY car in 2019 !!! I wouldn't recommend this with the "package' we got. Do your homework or buy another kind of car.

Love It!!!

This car is great! Lots of leg room, seats up to 7adults comfortably. Love that I can choose the drive mode/gas mileage. The controls are easy to use. The heated seats are wonderful.
