#970 of 974 Tires for 2006+ Sedona by bluedevils Jan 27, 2009 (2:11 pm)
Is this forum the most active one for the 2nd generation (2006+) Sedonas? I haven't visited in a while and am surprised at the lack of activity.   Our 2006 Sedona EX's OEM tires, Michelin LX4, are shot. They lasted 33k miles and are getting reasonably close to the wear bar indicators. It's time for new tires. The 235-60-17 size is a fairly pricey tire. The OEM Michelins are $147 at tirerack - yikes! Never considered those since the treadwear was pretty poor and they carry no mileage warranty.   Bought a set of 4 Kumho 798 tires. H speed rated, 400 treadwear and A traction and A temp ratings. Decent specs. Found some reviews on tirerack, though it's tough to know how much stock to put into reviews of tires that are a totally different size. E.g. some 2002-2005 Sedonas had this tire model as original equipment, but that's a 205-70-15 tire so I don't know how similar the user experience will be.   $66 each + shipping from tirerack, these tires were half the price of most other tires of the same size. Treadwear does not seem to be their strong suit, but if I get 30k from them, I will be a fairly happy camper.

Replying to: byyall (Jan 05, 2009 8:12 pm) In my experience, service quality is more related to the particular dealership providing the service than of the vehicle brand. Replies to this message: smiller (Jan 29, 2009 6:54 am)

Replying to: bluedevils (Jan 27, 2009 2:12 pm) Amen to that brother! I can deal with (too many) minor problems with my 2006 Sedona because my Kia dealer's service dept. is up to date and well trained. We like our Sedona and we are lucky to get good service from the dealer.
#973 of 974 Finally! Good Service by byyall Feb 01, 2009 (9:40 pm)
I can now join the few of you who report good service from a Kia dealer! I had to drive over 200 miles round trip, BUT almost every quirk in the 2006 Kia Sedona was addressed. The only problem that remains is the wind noise from the right passenger sliding door. I honestly believe this is something that goes back to when the parts for the 2006 model were in the tool and die mode. Maybe it wasn't exact on the door.   The dealer at Kia of Florence, SC has gone way beyond the extra mile. They had Kia of America call me to see if there was anything they could do. It has taken us 2 1/2 years, but finally it is working right! Hallajeula!! I hope I am not speaking too soon about it working good! Galeana Kia in Columbia, SC is awful. Don't ever think you will take a car there and get service...you'll be sadly disappointed.
