2005 Kia Sorento Pros and Cons at TrueDelta: Owner Pros and Cons by goodoldg

Safety & braking

4 wheel disc ABS brakes, ladder on frame design, front and side airbags. This vehicle is very sturdy and I feel very safe in it.

Exterior styling

Pretty much everything. I love how Kia took design ideas from all the major SUV makers and did a great job putting them all together.

Interior styling

I love the wood trim and the styling throughout.

Front seat support & comfort

The leather seats are supportive yet soft. it feels like a couch.

Fuel economy

Put simply "It sucks"

Ride smoothness

It is essentially a truck. It rides like one.

Dealer practices

I have have not had good experiences at any Kia dealer I have been to. I have been to at least 7. Kia needs to take a much stronger approach in managing their dealer network.

Audio & nav systems

The stereo is an AC DELCO unit and not the best quality at all.
