Why is my Kia Sorento making a grinding noise?

I recently purchased a Kia Sorento and it has been making a strange grinding noise whenever I accelerate. I'm not sure what could be causing it or if it's something I should be concerned about. Can anyone provide some insight?

It's possible that there could be an issue with your transmission. I would recommend taking it to a mechanic to have it checked out.

Check to see if your brake pads are worn down. This could also cause a grinding noise when accelerating.

I had a similar issue with my Sorento and it turned out to be a faulty bearing. Definitely get it checked out by a professional.
