#1432 of 4003 Any Sorento Drivers from Florida out there? by kiaworld Dec 17, 2002 (11:54 am)
Hello, I'm a 1st time poster. I'm interested in purchasing the Sorento EX fully loaded. I have found the dealers in Central Florida to be a major turn off. They have smug attitudes & are unwilling to work with you to earn their trust and confidence. I'd like to hear from Florida Sorento owners in hopes that you had a great purchasing experience. If you are willing to recommend a dealer you will make my Holiday Wishes come true! Thank you.

I just got this little brochure for Sorento accessories. They only provide us the step bars and not the running boards. The bumper guard looks great. I wonder the cargo box (for Canadian Sorento) will fit the US Sorento. I want to get the sunroof deflector.

lok888 the sun roof deflector can be bought at the dealership that you bought your Sorento at. but before your buy it try driving around with the sunroof open . Ours was not as noisy as we would expect it to be, so we may not get one.

I agree. It will be difficult for car wash and auto detailing. Have you programmed your Homelink yet? I think schip1 did. Schip1 - Do you have to buy any receiver for your garage door? I checked out the Homelink website for home lighting. They also sell some components for home lighting control. I emailed them and let's see what happen.
#1436 of 4003 Sorento and towing by dried Dec 17, 2002 (4:38 pm)
Looking at purcashing an EX - very interesting vehicle. I want to be able to pull a 2500 lb camper with it, along with 4 adults, in Colorado/Wyoming (high altitude). I know this is within the rating, which is 3500 lb. From the test drive, it FEELS like it should do OK, and based on my experience towing with an Isuzu Trooper it should be OK, but has anyone actually had a cahnce to tow something? Any thoughts?   thanks!

lok888, the HomeLink unit 'learns' the coded RF signal from your existing garage door remote unit. After learning this signal, it transmits the exact same code, which is received by your existing garage door opener's receiver. So the short answer is, no...I did not need to buy another receiver.

jmpats2000, there's an elongated button on the face of the odometer. Press it quickly and it will cycle thru Trip A, Trip B, and regular odometer. If you keep it pressed for approx 3 seconds while it is displaying Trip A or Trip B, it will reset A or B to zero, respectively.

If you want extra keys, you need to get them from the dealer.The factory key has a chip that the car will read using the onboard computer.If the code is a match, the car will start.Most car companys are using this method called "passive alarm".   73 Randy

I am located in Central Florida and was able to get a deal from Southside Kia in Kissimmee . What dealers have you been to? I purchased a EX with Lux pkg, load level, hitch, cargo tray,and cargo net, they took very good care of me and was very satisfied with the way things were handled. Let me know if you need more info..
#1441 of 4003 seat belt warning by mdsorento Dec 17, 2002 (8:38 pm)
From the Manual page 4-56: "If the driver's lap/shoulder belt is not fastened when the key is turned ON or if it is unfastened after the key is ON, a chime sounds and the safety belt warning light remains on for 6 seconds. If the system does not operate as described, see an authorized Kia dealer..."    Mine works as described only when turning the key to on , but not after is On and unfastened, I'll be visiting the dealer and ask them...
