Good Points

Nice comfortable seats, good driving position.


Bad Points

Fuel pump failed after 4 weeks. Timing belts keep snapping, front brakes wear every 10k. Car keeps locking itself when boot is opened. Broke dowm 5 times in last year.Very expensive to service and maintain. Unreliable and costly. Stay Clear of this car!


General Comments

I bought the Kia Sedona in January 2003 brand new for 19k. I reckon it has cost me close to another 5k in garage bills to keep on the road for five years. Considering the first 3 years were covered by a manufacturer warranty it's quite expensive. The last year of it's life it broke down 5 times, twice on the motorway when the car ground to a complete halt! It being an automatic this was very worrying and dangerous. This sorry saga culminated in an estimated repair bill of over 2k, which I decided was a bridge too far. In January 2008 I scrapped it. Best thing I ever did. I for one will never again buy a Kia.
