I bought my 2019 Kia Sorento from the dealer about 1 1/2 - GEWARF
I bought my 2019 Kia Sorento from the dealer about 1 1/2 years ago. Unfortunately, recently the oil was evaporating due to a known defect in the CDI engine design. When I went t o the service department I was introduced to Service Manager Greg Saakyan. He told me he was aware of the symptoms of this situations, asked me several qualifying questions. He told me he would need to keep the car for about a week to have the mechanics make a final assessment, and if they found the car to have the known defect, they would need to have a manufacture's mechanic inspect the car. I was so so impressed with Greg, everything that he committed to do, he did it, and kept me informed of the process via texts and phone calls. As expected, the result of the analysis was that the entire engine needed to be replaced. Greg arranged for a loaner car for the next week while they received and replaced the engine. Since the car was still under warranty, all of the work was completed at no cost to me. I have been driving the car with the new engine for a week, and it is running perfectly. Additionally, Greg and I are working together to schedule some preventative maintenance items in the near future. I am so grateful for how he handled the entire process, as well as the assistance provided by the other members of the service team.
