CarComplaints.com Notes: Kia really changed the design of the Sorento in the 2011 model year. Instead of a truck-like body-on-frame more capable of offroad adventures, the newest Sorento is a unibody construction and is much more crossover than sport utility. The changes brought a whole slew of problems, including a frustrating problem where the door that won’t open. Is it too late to go back?

We recently had our transmission repaired. The dealer informed us the power train warranty did not cover the problem even though the transmission would not operate properly and the service department advised us the vehicle should NOT be driven. Very disappointed in this so-called 100,000 mile warranty. Will take copy of warranty to lawyer for advise.
