I bought an 03 Sorrento a year ago with 39000 miles on it.Budget car sales said the 03 had a transferable 10/100
warranty.Is this true?If it is not then I will unload
it at 60000 miles.So far the things that have been fixed
under warranty are 1.lift struts for hatch replaced 2.
drivers door seal replace,3.left headlight and both
brake lights,4.Diode to fix dome light and door locks
being erratic.This is all minor BS and it is better
than the Explorer or Outback I have owned.$50 does not
fill it up and that's an ouch!

Never owned a Kia but I have owned a Hyundai. Believe they're the same. If I remember the power train warranty ends at 60,000 miles on transfers. All of the things you mention are non-power train related and would end at 60K anyway (do I remember this correctly, it's been almost 2 years).
Question-- Why would you be unloading a high depreciation car because of the warranty if you'd had good luck with it? My Malibu Maxx stops at 36 thou. and I'm expecting to run it to 150.
Crappy mileage is another thing, and do think these are gas hogs.
BTW-- why are you posting this on the Rio boards?

Try using the Browse By Vehicle search tool in the left sidebar to find the Sorrento discussions, or use Browse By Topic to find warranty discussions.#142 of 145 My local Kia dealer is really good by b3nut

I bought my '06 Rio5 from Russ Darrow Kia in Madison WI...they've been great every time I go in to have my little scoot serviced, was just there this morning for an oil change. I have to say, I'm really liking my Rio5. It had 6 miles on it when I picked it out in March, and has over 17.5K on it now. It's been delightful, the only issue I have is I blew a speaker, but I've been looking for an excuse to upgrade anyway.
Dang look at the boards now...I get sidetracked for a few weeks and look what happens!

#145 of 145 Forums reorganizations by pf_flyer HOST
Oct 17, 2006 (5:57 am)
You've probably noticed new discussions appearing all over the forums. What's happening is that we are closing generic, everything in one pile discussions like this and creating smaller discussions that deal with specific areas of interest.For example, here in the Kia Rio Group you'll now find:
New Kia Rio Owners - Give Us Your Report
Kia Rio Test Drive - What Did You Think?
Kia Rio: MPG-Real World Numbers
Kia Rio Safety & Crash Test Results
Kia Rio: A/C Problems & Questions
Kia Rio: Prices Paid & Buying Experience
Kia Rio: Lease Questions
to name a few of the new discussions.
When you are ready to post, please check the discussion list at the main Kia Rio Group page for the appropriate discussion to post in. If there doesn't appear to be a discussion for the issue or problem you have, feel free to create one. We can deal with accidental duplication of topics as things progress.
Note that the Rio and Rio5 are grouped together here, so one discussion for safety, mileage, engine issues, etc. will suffice.
Thanks for your understaning and help in making this group a great resource of information for Rio/Rio5 owners!
