Prestige Kia - Recommended service and maintenance schedule for Kia Sorento
Owning a Kia Sorento means enjoying space, safety, and confidence on every drive. The simplest way to keep it that way is a clear, consistent service plan that protects performance, fuel economy, and resale value while helping you stay within warranty guidelines. At Prestige Kia, we make maintenance straightforward with factory-trained technicians, Genuine Kia Parts, advanced diagnostics, and convenient online scheduling. Whether your Sorento is gas, Hybrid, or Plug-in Hybrid, we tailor care to your model year, mileage, and driving conditions, including severe use such as frequent short trips, extreme temperatures, towing, or rough roads. Below is a practical, broadly applicable cadence many owners follow; your exact intervals may differ based on powertrain, mileage, and updates from the manufacturer. We also document every visit, perform complimentary multi-point inspections, and check for software updates or open campaigns to keep key systems current. Wisconsin weather can be tough on batteries, brakes, and underbody components, so we monitor corrosion points and address small issues before they grow. As always, consult your Kia Owner’s Manual and contact our team for model-specific guidance.
