Very unreliable and severe transmission issues

4/5 Very Good 203 views

I traded my Audi last November for the Kia Sorento and loved it initially. However, my experience got worse when the car started experiencing transmission issues just after a few months of the ownership. I have covered only 500 miles on this vehicle and I cant even expect such issues. Another problem I faced was that the engine light came on without any reason. For 26 days the Sorento has been sitting at the dealership. The reliability of the Sorento is really questionable. With this vehicle, I have learned the lesson that looks can be deceiving.
