The LX model is now available with a sport package that includes a new five-speed manual transmission, side step bars, Michelin tires, alloy wheels, roof rack, leather-wrapped steering wheel and keyless entry.

Cant believe what you get for you buck! - 2004 Kia Sorento
By April - January 25 - 2:00 amThe first word that comes to mind is class. How in the world do they put all of that class in this SUV and still make it affordable? The ride is smooth and quiet. Theres so much room in the back seat - adults are as comfortable as kids! I think its wonderful that an automobile company realizes that even us middle class people like to ride in style.

One of the best - 2004 Kia Sorento
By CT yank - January 21 - 10:00 amOnly had the 2004 Sorento for 3 weeks, but so far it has lived up to my expectations. Use it off road plus considerable highway driving. Looks, comfort and functionality cant be beat. Go for the luxury package if possible, youll love driving it!

"POWER TO SURPRISE" IS RIGHT - 2004 Kia Sorento
By beastly_sorento - January 19 - 8:30 pmI love my Sorento! I bought it with 73,000 miles on it, for around ten thousand including a standard lifetime powertrain warranty(really sealed the deal). After 5 months and 8,000 miles, I would of bought it without the warranty. The engine is extremely reliable and the 4 wheel drive is awesome. The gas mileage is O.K., but what can I expect from a V6 4x4. Because this is a true 4x4, the ride can be a little rough, but the cushy seats help a lot. Overall, this is a reliable and fun to drive vehicle that has all the goodies at a rock bottom price. Buying a Sorento was a smart move for me and it will be too for you.

BEWARE!!! This is a tempting trap! - 2004 Kia Sorento
By jenn223 - January 9 - 10:00 amWe have had nothing but PROBLEMS with our Kia Sorento! We bought brand new. At 3000 miles the trans. froze on an offramp, we had it towed but they "could not duplicate the problem and did nothing". At 12000 miles, the transmission went out on me. The dealership did not want to pay for rental while they fixed, I contacted BBB and they did. They replaced transmission. They also fixed the back armrest that broke after a WEEK of owning. I spoke with a car insurance agent she said she had a Sorento too and the first week she had it her fuel pump went out, then her suspension! She got a lawyer because they didnt want to fix it, now her trans. is going out too. My suggestion, pass this by!

KIA SORENTO - 2004 Kia Sorento
By Shawn Cook - December 20 - 2:00 amOverall i have no problems. But trying to do some of the maint. yourself is difficult. It is very difficult to change the headlights and to change the oil and filter you have to remove a plastic skid plate

Dont waste your money - 2004 Kia Sorento
By billg - December 12 - 9:20 pmThis is the 2nd Sorento we purchased. The first had a thumping in the drive shaft, after three replacements and a redesigned one and many other leaks and issues Kia bought it back. Mistakenly, I though it could be one bad SUV in a field of good ones. The second has leaky seals, a broken oil pressure sensor and now the rear differential went out in it, all at less than 15,000 miles. We take excellent care of our vehicles, my other truck has over 200K miles. Yes, the warranty is good, but what is the point if vehicle is always in the shop. Please do not waste your money on this SUV.

Thumbs up - 2004 Kia Sorento
By brapla - December 3 - 10:00 amAfter only 2 months, I am thrilled I bought my Sorento. It is fun to drive, responsive and it turns heads. Sure, the gas milage leaves alot to be desired, but I knew that going in. I can buy alot of gas for the money I saved by not buying the other brands. The only problem I have is the outside themometer doesnt keep up with the temperature changes, but I understand that is being addressed.

I love my Sorento! - 2004 Kia Sorento
By jslee - November 21 - 1:53 pmWe love our Kia Sorento. We couldnt be happier with the value, warranty and style. The 4WD has come in quite handy in this nasty Ohio weather we have had as of late - it handled wonderfully.
