Sorento EX 3.5L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 108,000 miles

Every time I sneeze another part crumbles off this vehicle. Their name is misleading KIA (aka Killed In Action) that's assuming it survives long enough to even see action. Be thankful if your KIA makes it 10 blocks without spontaneously combusting or falling apart. Worst vehicles sold in the US!

Paint is crap. Paint is too thin. They don't have the technology done for paint yet.

I am having the same problem as other users! I can not believe that there isn't a recall on this issue. I know of one more person in my town that has also had the same issue although he had his fixed for $350. I don't think we should be responsible to pay for this issue.
