text: I have a 2009 Kia Sedona.  It has had several minor recalls that have been taken care of, but what this article fails to note is that the Kia comes in second when taking the powertrain dependability into account.  As for the other areas of concern, my only reservation with the Kia has been the propensity for the sliding doors to freeze shut , especially after a car wash.  So, if you park it outside in freezing weather be careful if you're getting a car wash and wipe off the water around the doors before parking it out.
