RangerClay Posted August 1, 2014 Report Share Posted August 1, 2014 (edited) My wife wants one and I'm looking for some real testimonials about the car and not just on-line reviews. If anyone owns one of these would you please tell me how you like it. Edited August 1, 2014 by RangerClay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wtnhunt Posted August 1, 2014 Report Share Posted August 1, 2014 Never have Joe. Seems i recall reading a horror story about a kia here on these forums a while back though. Might ask some independent mechanics if possible, never hurts to know what engines are problematic and which ones have a good reputation.

stevebeilgard Posted August 3, 2014 Report Share Posted August 3, 2014 i've never owned one, but those who do tell me they are short on power. i've never met a suburu owner who would not buy another one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hows AK? Hope all is well. Agree with the Suby ... owned a 2005 Outback LLBean. By far the most capable and comfortable car I've ever owned.

hogwild63 Posted August 5, 2014 Report Share Posted August 5, 2014 We bought a used 2004 Kia Sedona back in 2005 that had 40k. We drove it until about 2009 it had 99k. It needed some work and did not want to spend money on a car that had 99k. We took it on several camping vacations. I never really noticed any lack of power on the Sedona. Since then, we had a used 2007 Sorento and it drove well. Traded that one and another car in for new 2013 Sorento and Rio. The both can be short on power on the highway but not in the city. I did not check the engine size when I bought them or see if there was other options on the engine size because they gave us a sweet deal on both cars. My wife still misses the Sedona.

No horror stories here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
