A different tech looked at it and said that my car had 2 defective leaking front brake calipers (on a brand new car). I immediately called them back and was scheduled another week out. Didn’t even get down the road and heard the … same squealing as soon as I left the lot. I took it in to have them look at it, the tech said he found nothing wrong with it, didn’t hear anything and lubed the brakes and they sent me on my way. Not even a week after buying it, the brakes have been non stop squealing every time I brake. I bought my brand new 2021 Kia Sorento S on May 1st.

Overall, we like the Sorento for its blend of value and versatility. All-wheel drive is now standard on the top-of-the-line SX Prestige trim. Higher trims all receive new standard equipment that was optional in 2022 models. The base LX trim now offers a suite of new standard driver assist features (blind-spot warning, rear cross-traffic warning and safe exit assist, which keeps rear passengers from opening a door into traffic). The Sorento's interior is another high point - it uses high-quality materials and can be upgraded to near-luxury levels of comfort.Ĭhanges to the 2023 Sorento are modest, but they bolster Kia's reputation for value. Additionally, Kia offers hybrid and plug-in hybrid variants of the Sorento (reviewed separately). The latter engine provides plenty of power and turns the Sorento into one of the quickest SUVs in its class. Two conventional engine options are available in the Sorento, including a base four-cylinder and an optional turbocharged four-cylinder. Even the rearmost seats are reasonably comfortable for adults, though getting back there can be a challenge. You might think having three rows means you have to sacrifice comfort in the second, but the Sorento's middle bench is surprisingly spacious. Like most other Kias, the Sorento comes with an impressive complement of standard features, including wireless connectivity for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration, lane keeping assistance (it helps keep the Sorento in its lane) and multiple USB charging ports.
