I have been in contact with KIA Corporate on this. It is a problem with the 2007 & 2008 Sorentos among other models. They say it is the "digital" radio that it reduces the sound so you dont hear the static.... and they also say and QUOTE "THAT MOST PEOPLE DON'T NOTICE IT". Have come close in telling me that it is a defect. I'm working on trying to get a totally NEW one at their expense. They are suposed to be checking to see if the 2009 Sorento has the same problem. I have been working on this since November 2007 a month after buying mine.

I'm afraid that I don't understand your question. Is it something wrong with the lock?

I hope someone has the solution. thanks

yes, the locks should just lock without a buzzing sound, the sound is like a wrong answer given on family feud, thanks SIDMAN

Now I know what you mean the buzzing sound. Mine '03 EX does it for many years. There is nothing wrong in term of the lock function. I hear it when I sit inside the car and to lock/unlock the doors. Sounds like an issue with the lock mechanism. I've never bought this to dealer's attention since my warranty is out. The locks work just fine. Perhaps you can try folks at sorentoclub.com

I just saw your post and am wondering what ever came of it... I have the exact same problem and Kia has told me the same line as well. Eventually I got a chance to take one of their district managers out on a test drive to show him the problem and got him to admit that there is a problem. Were you able to get anything from them? I have taken my kia in about 8-10 times and it still isn't fixed. Let me know
