2001 Kia Sedona EX review from North America
"Generally a great van, but very poor after sales service and warranty follow-up from the dealer"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rust around the rear hatch latch, which recurrs every year.
Dead batttery, and electrical system failure within first year.
General comments?
We've given up on the cheap Kia batteries and spent our own money to replace it with a Sears Die Hard.
Every year since we've owned our Sedona, we've had to get the rear hatch rust re-painted under warranty... but every year it rusts through again.
