Overview & Reviews

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. A two-tone gray interior color scheme is also new, and metallic interior accents replace last year's wood grain accents.

• Great value, long list of standard features, solid construction, true off-road capability, lengthy warranty coverage.

• Mediocre fuel economy, harsh ride over sharp impacts.

  Good Kia - 2004 Kia Sorento
  By Guy1 - December 15 - 1:56 am

  Excellent SUV. Is a gas hog in my opinion. V6 maybe 20 miles a gallon. Quiet ride is exceptional. This vehicle is also built very good. Get the most for your money.

  2004 Sorento Marginal at Best - 2004 Kia Sorento
  By ablebaker - December 1 - 8:30 am

  Rust and reliability issues, dealer maintenance costs are exorbitant and warranty issues are always issues. 23,000 miles and a plastic bushing from a defective intake manifold gets sucked into the #6 piston which it destroys. Gas mileage is abysmal - 12mpg in town 17mpg highway going downhill with a tailwind. Next time itll be a Honda.

  By Angie - November 21 - 4:20 am

  Weve had problems with this SUV from the word go, (bearing & brakes & engine bolt recall) when you called Kia, they give you the run around, I wish I never seen this SUV. Money gone out the window!

  Constant Recalls - 2004 Kia Sorento
  By C. Murray - November 6 - 2:36 pm

  It seems like it has been recalled for faulty engine bolt, now a recall for the induction replacement valve, plus service has been less than friendly. Take it to the dealer, walk into the service dept and they look at you like you have two heads! No "Welcome to KIA Service or Good Morning" just stares, like they just saw a deer in the headlights!! Wouldnt buy another one! Too much hassle for the money. I would take a chance on an American SUV! Called to get an appointment with the Service Dept. at the local KIA Dealer that advertises that they are open until 7:30 p.m. (called at 4:45 p.m.) - everyone had gone home! Wont Use BEYER VOLVO/KIA EVER! They could care less! Dont be fooled by the looks

  MY NEW SORENTO - 2004 Kia Sorento
  By FRNKIE "G"... - October 26 - 10:00 am

  MY NEW KIA RIDES LIKE A CAR AND IS BUMPY ON UNPAVED ROADS. EXTERIOR DESIGN IS EXCELLENT. INTERIOR DESIGN IS GREAT WITH ALL THE ANEMENITIES YOU WOULD EVER NEED IN THE "EX" SERIES. THE PERFORMANCE OF THIS VECHICLE ON THE LONG HAUL IS V/G. AROUND TOWN IS NOT SO GOOD WITH VERY POOR MILEAGE CITY/HIGHWAY WAS A LITTLE BETTER. A/C WAS ALWAYS ON ? A GREAT VECHICLE AND THE PRICE IS EXCELLENT ALSO. FOR MY MONEY THE EX VERSION IS CMPARABLE TO VECHICLES OF WHICH COST MUCH MORE THAN THE SORENTO. THE SORENTO IS EASY TO GET IN & OUT OF WHICH IS AN IMPORTANT FEATURE FOR PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES.

  Its a Steal! - 2004 Kia Sorento
  By Dans Kia - October 15 - 10:20 am

  What a great value. Other than so-so gas mileage, this is a tremendous vehicle. Very dependable and a great warranty.

  JUNK - 2004 Kia Sorento
  By Amber Shank - September 21 - 6:50 am

  I have owned this car for five months, in the first month it broke down on me and left me sitting 3 times ( one of the times in the middle of the road, and almost got hit by a school bus with my one year old daughter in the back seat) Have replaced the radio, 2 headlights, TPS sensor, Oh and it just left me sitting on the PA turnpike with my 2 children in 90 degree weather, cause the transmission went out. And it only took Kia 2 1/2 hours to get someone to tow it. If you want to throw your money down the toilet then by all means buy a Kia. I will never buy another Kia ever again, its not safe, not dependable, and the gas mileage SUCKS!
