2004 Kia Sedona LX review from North America
"With all the competition the Sedona is about average"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Front brake pads replaced at 28000 miles.
Toothed timing belt hydraulic tensioner failed.
General comments?
This van is built like a tank and takes a lot of abuse.
It does a very good job when I'm towing my fishing boat.
The fit and finish (paint) is holding up very well.
The KIA compares about the same as my Dodge Caravan, but is quieter inside the cabin and less road noise.
