What are some common maintenance issues with a Kia Sorento?

I recently purchased a used Kia Sorento and I want to make sure I keep up with the necessary maintenance to avoid any major issues. What are some common problems that arise with this vehicle model and how can I prevent them?

Hi Samantha, congrats on your new Kia Sorento! One issue that often arises with this model is engine failure due to a clogged oil control valve. To prevent this, make sure to change your oil regularly and use a high quality oil filter.

Hey Samantha, another issue you may encounter is a failed fuel injector. This can be caused by using low quality fuel or not changing your fuel filter regularly. Be sure to use high quality fuel and replace your fuel filter every 30,000 miles.

Hi Samantha, one way to prolong the life of your Kia Sorento's transmission is to get it flushed and serviced every 60,000 miles. This will help prevent any major problems down the road.
