2011 kia Sorento problem

I have a kia 2011 Sorento.
The first time that I went to the dealership,
I told them that there was something wrong with my transmission.
They checked my car, but said nothing was wrong,
and only cleaned the computer parts. The problem occured again,
and I told them about the problem again and suggested that I get my transmission changed,
and after a tough discussion with the dealership, they finally changed it.
Now, with the new transmission, when I start my car, the RPM runs very high between 4000-5000, then after a while,
slows down. When I drive my car, and push down on the gas petal,
there is a strange noise coming from my car that sounds like some type of electrical problem.

I wonder if anyone else had this problem.

Do you still have the sorento? Did kia fix the problem? I'm very interested in buying one but from what I've read some people are having strut and transmission issues.

Yes I do, they changed transmission.

They will change your transmission with your complaint to Kia motors consumer service.

@Eric77744777 I have a 2012 Kia Sorento a push button start, when I start it up it does a bang sound, it doesn't happen all the time, but...is frustrating and I'm a nervous wreck every time I go to start it, the dealer said I would have to bring it out and they will keep it overnight and keep tryin it through out the day, I told them what if it doesn't happen in an over night period..as it does not happen every time I start it...the dealer said they have to hear it to detect. Your opinion

I make the Transmissions for Kia and Hyundai. When this happens it means your transmission is stuck in "limp home mode" which is it will only ride in 4th gear. Meaning there is an internal problem with your transmission, that the dealerships usually cant fix. If your transmission is under warranty they usually replace it and send it back to kia, where my job is to find what was wrong.

First gen (truck based) Sorentos are better. 03-09 models are very solid. I've seen a few with 160,000+ miles and only problem was a plastic elbow in the cooling system. $3.00 fix. Overall first gen is a very solid & reliable suv. My 06 is @ 91,000 miles and runs great!!! even after I wrecked it, New airbag & body repair and still runs great.

my 2011 kia sportage just got stuck in fourth gear the rpms were 4000 and would not gear up, after turning the vehicle off and back on it hasnt done it but I will be making a compliant

My Kia Sorento 2005 has stuck in 4x4Lo mode itself and does not change to any other mode. I have tried to change the mode while stopped with engine running and also totally off mode.

I have already tried to reverse run it as some body suggested to do so but did not help.

If any body has a clue.............. Please help.

Hey lgOrEcK24......you complain about grammar? Why don't you try punctuation? I'd hate to see what your posts look like without spell check. Do yourself a favor and never log back onto Youtube again.
