Buying a used 2024 Kia Sorento? Check these 2 recalls first
The 2024 Sorento has 2 recalls in this group, addressing wiring that may cause steering loss and possible loss of headlights and taillights. These campaigns make steering and exterior-lighting recall records central to the review. The 44 owner complaints filed with NHTSA are unverified reports, with electrical system appearing in 11, structure in 7 and service brakes in 6. The record lists 4 crashes, 1 fire and 4 injuries. Structural and brake concerns warrant separate service-history questions.
Before you buy
- Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
- Verify completion of the steering-loss wiring recall.
- Confirm the lighting recall repair and check headlights and taillights.
- Ask for electrical, structural and service-brake repair records.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Kia dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
