Sorento LX 2.4L 4-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 24,000 miles

Headlights are extremely dim for being stock. You can't even see 5 feet in front of your car. If you're going around a corner its pitch black. Not even the high beams help much! How dare Kia release this Sorento with these dim headlights. Just buy yourself some LED's and call it a day.

I have bought one excellent vechile, but the lights are the worst design of any vehicle I have ever driven over the last 60 years, I had a morris 1959 with better lights, the problem is the eyebrows above the main lights,[daytime running lights] creating a shadow or blind spot especialy down hill on a winding road, and if the road is a little bumpy there are two shadows, one out each side going up and down which really does ones head in. I believe the next model will be redesigned in the light department, I may have to put extra lights on the bumper, which may create problems with new Zealand road laws. other then that it is a exelent suv that I still would have purchased,It is economical quiet, and I like the g-force when taking off. I have never needed to have it in sport mode, bit scared of that acutualy cheers john
