Overview & Reviews
Kia joins the minivan rumble with the introduction of the Sedona, the lowest-priced minivan in America. Standard on the Sedona are such niceties as air conditioning, power windows, cruise control and auto on/off headlights. Upscale EX models get a CD player, interior wood trim and power front seats. All Sedonas benefit from Kia's impressive Long Haul Warranty with drivetrain protection for 10 years or 100,000 miles.
- Unbeatable price, attractive array of standard goodies, great warranty package.
- Missing some key minivan features, engine could use more power.

Windstar No More - 2002 Kia Sedona
By robleyw - September 6 - 2:00 amTraded our 99 Windstar. Love the Sedona! 2002 Sedona EX: Sun roof, HomeLink, Emerald Green / Silver two-tone with dark gray cloth interior. All for less than $20,500! About 1200 miles on it now and it just keeps getting better and better. EPA mileage ratings way low (15/20) - we see 17.5 to 18 in the city. This van is better than the Windstar in every respect. And the warranty: Wow!

Bang for your buck - 2002 Kia Sedona
By skeptiq - July 21 - 3:00 pmI have owned this for over a year and I can honestly say I have really enjoyed it from the first day. Main purchase reason was more space for trips with the family. The ride is great, the seats are comfortable, and I have only had minor issues (one front wheel bearing and the dealership replaced both under warranty with NO hassles). Great vehicle for the money, but plan on keeping it as the resale value is awful!

Kia you should not own - 2002 Kia Sedona
By Vilma Ramos - July 19 - 2:00 amThis Mini van handles well its fun to drive. But the engine shakes, The shock obsorbers in the front make a thumping noise, the rear door is hard to close. The belts on the engine make noise and it has a flimzie accelerator. When you take it to the dealer to see if the can make adjustments/repairs they tell you its a kia. So my recomendation is not to buy one.

I think I made a mistake - 2002 Kia Sedona
By MaybeAMistake - July 3 - 10:00 amLike others - we purchased the Sedona because of the price. My wife and I have had it in the shop at least 3 times for the air conditioner. Now, the steering column makes a clunky noise. They ordered a "new steering column". Then... THEY SOLD OFF KIA - the next nearest dealer is about 90 minutes away. Im not feeling too good about the purchase. Also, the windshield cracked and cracked quickly.

Dont Buy a Kia - 2002 Kia Sedona
By barb niccum - July 3 - 2:36 amWe have owned/leased/operated 9 new cars. Most we have traded in within a few years. A few we have kept past their shelf life; but with great results. Bottom of the list? you got it. My 2002 kia sedona mini van. Purchased brand new in may 2002. Fast forward 7 short years; yes only 7 short years to a complete and utter piece of junk. Evidently there is a line that runs the length of the van that holds and circulates your engine coolant. Well its a very bad thing when the line rusts completely through and you leak said engine coolant. You would think that there would be light for this type of complete malfunction but the only light is the one telling you that your motor just burned up.

Sedona - 2002 Kia Sedona
By cconaf2 - May 7 - 10:00 amI Have 13000 miles on it with no problems. My grill has a spot that is pealing the black paint away. I have driven from DC to Texas with no problems. I think it has good acceleration. Just wish the gas malage was better.

So Far an Excellent Choice - 2002 Kia Sedona
By Gomez2002 - May 7 - 10:00 amWe bought our first Kia this month. What a great vehicle. The quality of the vehicle and the options make this van a great package for the money. We have only put about 500 miles on the van to date but so far its a keeper.

A Really Great Van - 2002 Kia Sedona
By kialover15 - April 3 - 5:36 pmThis van was purchased in August of 2002, because my grandmother needed to get a wheelchair lift for her cart for the back of the van. They were a little unhappy that they had to buy this van though, because they were the kind of people that would only buy GM or Ford. But Kia had the best price. 6 years later, they would easily buy another Sedona. They love and so do I. This van has such a great ride, looks cool, a strong engine, and very comfortable seats. I was only 10 when they bought this and didnt know much about cars then, but I fell in love with this van so much that I started doing research on Kia, and know, all that I will ever buy is a Kia.

Good Value - 2002 Kia Sedona
By Martino - February 18 - 2:00 amOwning the Kia just over a year now, Ive found it to be a good choice for the value. The Van has performed well and has been a pleasure to drive on long trips. The Van suffered a broken timing belt at 12000 miles, because of a plastic cover breaking in the timing belt housing. Kias roadside assistance and reimbursement program worked flawlessly.
