Kia Sedona: a great family van to meet all your needs.
We bought our Kia Sedona in 2011 (never used). We have not had any major problems ( other than new tires, new windshield wipers and an occasional oil change). We have never owned a car (previously) that has caused us with such a short list of problems. It is quite comfortable and despite having to travel on our high speed highways here (most are 70 mph), it never loses power!

Great acceleration and handling for a minivan.
My Kia accelerates very well. I like that it has rear windows that open. It is very stable at high speeds and handles very well on the highway. The back seats store very easily into the floor but the front rear seats can be hard to remove. The power doors work well and I am glad there is a power off switch and they can be closed without the battery.

Kia Sedona 2010 has been good so far.
This vehicle runs very well for its age. We purchased this vehicle used, but well maintained. Have this van now for maybe six months and haven't had any problems. It gets good gas mileage and performs well. I only wish the back seats were stow and go rather than having to completely remove them as they are rather hard to release and very heavy. That would probably be my only complaint. Also the ignition is in such a spot that they keys constantly rattle against the dash and it drives me insane enough that a would consider it a serious design flaw. Tiger than those two negatives I really like the van.

It's very spacious and drives smooth.
Its very spacious and comfortable for long trips. It's a 7 seater. So very easy to get to the little ones. It drives smooth on the highway. It's not a four wheel drive, so you would have to be mindful when driving in the snow. It drives well in the snow but it sometimes get stuck in the slush.

It has a sunroof and captain seats which I love.
It has electrical problems. The a/c blower goes out alot. The can is spacious however it can be a gas guzzler. Because of the year and mileage it is hard to get refinanced. I like the Sedona and would like a new one. Preferably a black minivan. If you're looking for a family vehicle the Kia Sedona is a great choice.

Great car, runs well. Big suggestion!
This car is great for taking road trips with family. It is lasted 8+ years so far and it is still doing well. I’d say that if you are ever moving around stuff, there’s a lot of room with this car. It is easy to keep intact if you know what you are doing.

Parts are too expensive. Don't have to spend a lot to buy it. Plenty of room for everything.
It is very roomy inside. Plenty of space if you have kids.

Kia Sedona, a great vehicle to have!
It is a great car and is very roomy. It is easy to drive too! The maintenance is good and feels like a car with room of a van. I would definitely recommend this van to others. It does take a lot of gas but most vans do. Great family vehicle. I love the two different control systems for the front and back air.

Great value and very good buy.
I love my minivan. Moveable seats and dual side doors. The only thing I hate is that the rear door seal sticks really bad which makes it very hard to open.

The joy's and depressing acts of my Kia Sedona.
My 2010 Kia Sedona is probably one of my most favorite cars. My 2 kids fit so comfortably inside and there is plenty of wiggle room. The drive is also so smooth, and it is a quiet car. Although, lately I've had some problems with it. My shifter got stuck in park, my large back door got stuck and it won't open. And to top it off, my driver's door stopped working from the inside. So in order me to exit the car, I must open my window and open it from the outside.

Reliable, safe family vehicle.
My car is practical. It's not a bad looking vehicle but is very basic, no add ons. It has been very reliable and that's the most important aspect of a vehicle to me. In 9 years, I've only need to maintain regular maintenance such as oil changes. I've not had a single problem... Mechanically.I would definitely recommend this type of vehicle for family use.

Extremely dependable and safe for families. Great car.
I love this car so much. I haven't had many problems with it. The Kia brand is a great company and the dealership is a great place to have your vehicle maintenance.

Great ride and nice size to carry people was well as large items because seat goes down into floor
I like the size and the amount or size it can carry. No complaints

It is a very safe car with lots of room to transport children. For Girl Scouts and youth group that has been a great benefit. It also came in really handy to take the girls to college.
I like that the last row of seats can be completely folded down and the middle row can be folded up so that is gives more room in the back. I don't like that the floor mats gets caught in the seat locks to the floor if you are not careful when you put them back up. I like the warranty that came with the van. I don't like all the sensors on the vehicle that cost a lot in order to replace (the tire sensors). I also don't like that to get an additional key since it is one of those electronic gadgets would cost so much. Overall I have really liked our Kia.

Very spacious for towing kids, suitcases and groceries.
Durable and holds up to seven passengers. I have children who are in various activities so the vehicles allows me to transport my children and their team members to games and back home. I back seat folds down and allows plenty of storage space for vacationing or normal supermarket visits.

My car and how it operates for my needs.
Comfortable, lots of legroom. Hauling space. Has good heating and air conditioning. Runs excellent. Easy to operate. Shifts gears well. Sporty looking. Sturdy for hauling. Plenty of seating. Good running motor. Great for trips. Good highway gas mileage.
emily L
on September 22, 2020
There is rear-control air-conditioning and heat options.
The brakes tend to squeal. The back windshield wipers tend to click and make noise when used. In general, the van is reliable and has lasted 9 years and over 130,000 miles. It does use up more gas than a typical car would, so no need to get this unless you have enough kids to fill it up.

I love the double sided doors.
I haven't had any major problems with my car. There are some recalls I need to get taken care of but since I bought it, I haven't had to replace anything major. Just regular oils changes is doing the trick. I like that it is double sided doors and very spacious.

Big red is the best get a Kia!
I love my truck it has a backup camera amazing ac & heat! The seats heat up! I have a TV in the back for the DVD player or games if you want to hook up something extra! Two row! My truck gets me to where I need to go and back. It red like candy and sweet like me!

Storage and Roominess in the van
It's nice and roomy. After sitting for a while the seats don't feel quite as comfy. There's a lot of room for storage.

It runs good even after 100,000 miles. Very affordable and safe to drive.
I have been a KIA customer for over 10 years.The KIA Sedona is an affordable minivan. I really like the safety standards. It is a good and safe vehicle for a family. My vehicle currently has over 100,000 miles and still runs great.
Robin S

Good comfortable vehicle.
Lots of legroom. However it is hard on gas mileage. Has good power and smooth ride. Good in snow. Radio has good sound quality. I would recommend this vehicle. It has seating for six people and good amount of storage space. Comfortable to ride in.

I love my Kia Sedona! Buy one now!
I have had zero issues with my vehicle. I love it! I have leather seats... Front are heated. I have a sunroof and six-CD player. The sound system is great! My gas mileage is very good. The stowaway seating is great for hauling stuff. My van is perfect for vacations!

Very pleased with this vehicle.
Some struts problems. No other problems. Very comfortable to ride. Power steering, power windows. 3rd row seat. Blue exterior, gray interior. SiriusXM radio. Abs. Automatic transmission. Very good on long trips. CD player. Easy handling on curves and uphill.

Kia 2010 model, reliable yet has some small issues.
Issues with the air conditioning constantly, also have a rattling in the dash that we can't figure out why it happens/how to fix it. Besides that the car is good on gas mileage and is pretty safe. We use it as a family car, has a lot of miles on it but still reliable and functions well.

Bad engineering design.
The 2010 Kia Sedona has a significant niggle that makes it potentially unsafe. The rear tailgate has only an outside handle for opening. No inside handle, and no key lock. So, when the electric lock on mine failed in the locked position, it left me with no way to open the tailgate. How is this unsafe? Ever hear of a flood? They seem to be getting more prevalent every year. And when a vehicle goes into deep water, what happens? The front (the part with the heavy engine in it) goes down first. If one doesn't get out fast enough, and ends up in the very rear of the van, there is no way to open the tailgate because of the failed lock mechanism, and the never-installed interior door operating handle. This should have been a recall item, but is, instead, a fairly expensive repair I shouldn't have to make.
Joe R

This vehicle is very reliable and dependable.
I like the way the car handles. I like the ride the car has. It is very roomy inside with plenty of room for passengers. It is a dependable vehicle. There has not been what I would call unforeseen repairs.
Stephen D
on April 27, 2020
It does what it needs to.
No complaints, good mileage. The interior is enough to haul whatever I need, but is not as absurdly large s some other options on the market. The only problem we have with it is that it will occasionally not accelerate on the uphill.

Kia Sedona silver and its features.
It is not comfortable for very long drives. For example, if I was going to drive all the way to Alberta, it wouldn't be comfortable. They include a free trial of Sirius XM radio when you first buy the car. Also, there's loads of seats. It seats 7 people. Again, it is not comfortable for long drives.
Diana V
on April 7, 2020
This car is great for the family and great for personal reasons.
The reliability of the car has been the most excellent, however there has been some wear and tear (as expected). With four small children the car no longer looks that great and things fell apart inside (like the TV screws) the comfort though is very nice considering the seat warmers in the front seats, and it is performance is very nice. Driving in this car feels very smooth compared to other cars I have driven and if I were to run over a pothole there would be minimal damage to the car whereas my partner in a mini faces costly damages.
Lisa W
on March 26, 2020
The best soccer mom van ever!
I love my Kia Sedona. I would like for it to have a little more room in the very back where you can store things. When all seats are in use I can't fit my stroller in the back. I love that it has ac vents on every row of the car. I am short so the seat depth is important and it's perfect in this van.

Reliable-make sure you get a warranty
The 2010 Kia Sedona is very reliable, I've had very few problems with it. The one problem I had was with the air conditioner, which was a fairly expensive fix, but luckily the warranty from the company I bought it from covered it. Has managed to continue to hold up to my constant travel, and haven't had a single problem while doing so.
Jessica P
on February 22, 2020
Dependable and safety first.
I honestly am very impressed with my 2010 Kia minivan! I have not had any problems out of my van, other than your routine maintenance upkeep. Above all though, the 2010 Kia Sedona had one of the highest ratings in the safety aspect which is what matters most to me. I have 3 kids and they go almost everywhere I do, so keeping them safe and not having to worry about the van breaking down is everything! The only thing I am not a huge fan of is that my sliding doors are still manual and not automatic, and it did not come built in with a DVD player. The things I don't care for though are only wants and not essential needs.

Losing the power steering while it is raining can make it very difficult to make turns.
It has met our needs well for travel, transportation, and family. We are mostly pleased with how it runs. It has, however, had one repeated issue; when it is raining and you are using the AC, the belt will sometimes slip and we lose the power steering for a little time.
Angela W

This is why I love my Kia Sedona.
I love my Kia Sedona. It runs really smooth it is super easy to drive it turns on a dime there's bucket seats so my kids are separated the third row is extremely easy to take down and pull up there is plenty of storage in the back when the seats are up and when the seats are down there is a ton of room for any type of toy or even small furniture bikes we really loaded it up and everything always seems to fit. The only thing I wish it had was a DVD player and automatic sliding doors.

We love our van. I also like the storage room. When we moved,
It has been a good vehicle for 8 years now. The auto locks and door handles are broken on both side doors. There has been issues with the battery needing replaced but I think that is typical in fl. We also have brakes that need replaced as well. But overall, our van has gotten us to work and school and also on our family travels to Indiana every summer.

Beatrice the big blue minivan
I have noticed that a lot I'd the plastic on the inside easily breaks. The arm rests also have became loose and even started breaking off. Performance wise no complaints. The parts are not expensive and easy to replace. It drives extremely smooth even with its age. I love my Kia minivan and would buy another one.

Dealer failure to take identified issues seriously.
Mirrors have not worked since I bought it, though dealer found nothing wrong. Sliding door locks broke. Both fobs quit working. Discussed all with dealer and they did not find any issues. As a result probably the last time I by Kia. Love the room, space and reliability.

Kia Sedona great gas mileage.
It is a great car! Good gas mileage and the tires last a very long time as well. I don't have many problems with the car whatsoever. Parts are cheap and any shop will put it in for cheap as well. Gas is also cheap to put in as well since it just takes regular.
KIM C
on October 12, 2019
I have been having issues with sensors going bad. I had one replaced last year, one this past June and now it has to go back into the shop for another. The van performs as expected and was a really nice van when I bought it new. The next one we get we would like to upgrade to a more luxury model because the average model does not have the comfort features like heated seat etc. Also on road trips you can hear the wind as you are driving and it is very loud. I never really wanted a minivan but I have triplets so economically it is the best affordable vehicle for my budget and family.
It has the right amount of space for a large family.
Christine M
on October 4, 2019
Very roomy for a large family and easy to drive.
I love all the room the van has. I like that you can take the middle seats out. The trunk has a lot of space too. It is nice that the seats recline comfortably. It ha been pretty reliable.

2010 Kia Sedona has decent gas mileage and good driving vehicle but bad seals.
Great minivan. Could be a little better on gas mileage but it's ok. The only thing I hate is the rear sides and back hatch seals stick in the heat and the cold. I think they are just not good seals. Front doors, driver and passenger are good though. Overall good car.
Lucy M

Nice and roomy. Seats are easy to work with and make more room.
Nice ride, very reliable, no issues to date with starting, air conditioning, ride quality, strange noises, dash lights or anything. Seats are comfortable, my back doesn't hurt, and I am high enough to see (I am a short person). The power is good, not sluggish or difficult to get up to speed.

It is a great value for a van with good gas mileage and several great features.
I have enjoyed having the van I have. It has enough features for us, and plenty of room. The only complaints I have are the wear and tear we have put on it. It has stained seats and some rough looking scratches.
Courtney C

Give Kias a try. Nothing fancy, but good value.
Our minivan has been a good value for the money. It doesn't have the bells and whistles of other models (like a motorized sliding door) but it has plenty of cargo space which is important to us. The seats are comfortable during long road trips.We have been diligent about maintenance and haven't had any huge must-fix mechanical problems (like the transmission) but we did have to spend $1100 to fix automatic locks on two of the doors this past summer.

Nice family mini van with seating for seven.
Plenty of seating, drives well, uses a lot of gas, have not had many problems at all since buying in 2014. Vehicle is reliable, always starts during winter since replacing battery in 2016. Lights are very bright at night time, often get oncoming vehicles flashing me because of bright lights even when hi beams are not on.

It is great van for a big family or for a lot of people to go somewhere.
My van is burgundy and in really good condition. I love my van because it has plenty of room for all the kids & people that love to ride with me. I would love an SUV but my van has been pretty good to me. My kids love to ride in it because they have cup holders for their drinks and places for their food when we go out to get something to eat.

It's an old Kia, but it's reliable.
It's old, but it's reliable. The door needs work, but I think that's the only thing wrong with it. The engine is reliable, It drives very smooth. It hugs the road. It doesn't get much gas mileage. The AC blows cold. It could use an update radio system that with a hands free Bluetooth system.

I liked the power doors and trunk. However it's too expensive to fix now that they are broke. Don't like that I can't change the station on the steering wheel. Only the volume
Doesn't have a tight turning radius. The hitch that was added is too big for the vehicle
