if you are uncomfortable about the issue....would suggest going with their 3 day exchange.....or simply see what the service department tells you about the bulbs....I would also complain to your salesman as well for not properly preparing the vehicle for delivery...
bottomline...what is the price difference between the Chevy and Kia, you never said? And does the trade in make or break the deal ultimately?...is it the only vehicle you have now or can you go ahead and trade it in to the chevy dealer, sign the sales docs...and let him find you the 2010...

Kia has admitted to a defective right front strut assembly but has no fix as of this date. So you and everyone else who has this model (me too) is stuck with this problem.
Any clarification or correction for the above defective front strut from Kia Representative Manufacturer.

Now I realize that there may be a bigger price difference when you purchase a fully loaded car.
If the Pilot is Midsize and the Sportage is compact what is the Sorento? I always thougth it was a midsize and the Pilot is midsize, pushing fullsize. The Equinox is, I guess, still a compact but is now pushing midsize. But I would say the Sorento and Santa Fe are both considered midsize and the Sportage and Tucson are in the compact category.
That is exactly what counts in the end. I hope that the choice my wife and I made in buying the Sorento will feel like the right choice 5 years from now. We really loved our Mountaineer and struggled with our decision to trade it in. We where concerned with some of the forums that I have read where people have had the transmissions on the Mountaineers and Explorers go bad at about 60,000 to 70,000 miles and especially concerned where gas prices might go in the next few years. Anyway good luck with your car shopping.
i'm a toyota guy but the toyota highlander could not match this sorento in 6 speed, warrenty, power, price, and gas mileage. on a slightly down hill trip from temecula to anaheim calif at 70 and 75 the read out was 27.4 mpg. around town is still 17 mpg. break in time? sam
someone had a great idea to seperate pre 2011 into generation 1 and posts on 2011 and newer as generation 2. i don't need to read all those posts on older Kia's. do you host for free? thanks, Sam
(oh, can't guarantee it, but I suspect that Kia has someone summarizing posts here for the home office).
So I caught on to the goodness of Kia way back in the spring of 1999. Enjoy!

Can i take it to another dealership to get serviced cause there no help where i take it to.
Don't count on the power passenger seat. Not too many vehicles in this class have it. Honda CRV, Toyota Rav4, Ford Escape, and Chevy Equinox all have manual adjustable passenger seats or at least they did in the 2010 model year. It seams like it would be a no brainer that the customer would be willing to spend a little more for that option. I had it in my Mountaineer I traded for the Sorento. It was one a several things that I had to give up when I moved down in size and price point to buy a vehicle in this class. The other major option I gave up and sorely miss is the memory driver seat. That is the one thing over the power passenger that I would love to have. My wife adjusts it the way she wants and when I had it in for service the service tech must have been 6' 4", but I have a terrible time re-adjusting it so that it's comfortable for me. Also, when I removed the key from the ignition of the Mountaineer the seat automatically went back 2 or 3 inches which made it easier to get into and out of.
a 2011 Sorento purchased in 2011?
I know that they skipped the 2010 model so that in 2011 the Sorento could be two
years old.
I would rather buy the one that was built in 2011.
So if I buy a 2011 this Jan. and trade in 2012 it will be 1 yr. old while yours will be 2 years old.
Am I wrong to wait? .
