Expert Answers about Kia Sorento


  • What Cargo Bag Will Fit a 2013 Kia Sorento
  • What is the roof configuration of your 2013 Kia Sorento? If you have raised factory side rails or aftermarket crossbars then yes, the SportRack Vista Rooftop Cargo Bag part # SR8106 will work for you. However, if you have a bare roof or flush factory side rails then you will need to use the Rightline Gear Ace 2 Rooftop Cargo Bag part # RL100SA20. The SportRack bag attaches to rails whereas the Rightline bag attaches to the door seals. I have attached a photo to show how each mounts for you.

  • Trailer Wiring Harness for 2011 Kia Sorento
  • The correct Curt trailer taillight wiring harness will depend on if your Sorento is equipped with the factory tow package. If it doesn't have the tow package, use # C56328, unless it's the SX model, which would use the # C59236. If it does have the tow package, it would use # C56332. The Curt # C56131 you'd looked at is a fit for the Kia Forte, and wouldn't work on your Sorento. I've linked to some installation videos that you might find helpful.

  • How to Carry Two Kayaks on a 2014 Kia Sorento LX
  • The Inno Roof Rack, # INXB108-2, and # INXS100 is a good roof rack for your 2014 Kia Sorento LX with the flush mount factory side rails. The kayaks may not fit if you just lay them down side by side on the crossbars, so I recommend using a 2-kayak carrier like the Malone 2 Kayak Carrier, # MPG115MD. This carrier will hold the kayaks on their side and it is compatible with the Inno crossbars. You could also use a post-style carrier like The Stacker, # TH830, from Thule. We have demonstration...

  • Recommended Solution for 1-1/4" Hitch for 2021 Kia Sorento
  • I may have a solution for you, but most manufacturers are a bit behind in confirming fits for existing hitches on 2021 vehicles or designing altogether new hitches for them; for this reason there are no 1-1/4" hitches confirmed for your Sorento. Your best bet if this need is immediate might be going with the 2" factory hitch and using a hitch reducer like the Hitch Reducer 2" to 1-1/4" Trailer Hitch Receiver # HT02. This would give you the ability to use any existing 1-1/4" hitch accessories,...

  • Will the WeatherTech Cargo Mat Cover My 3rd Row Seating in My 2016 Kia Sorento
  • The WeatherTech Cargo Mat # WT40766 is designed to only fit with the 3rd row seating folded down. I spoke with my contact at WeatherTech and she indicated that this is the only cargo mat that they make for the 2016 Kia Sorento. This cargo mat will not cover the second row when it is folded down.

  • Roof Basket for Raised Rails - No Crossbars Needed
  • We have cargo baskets for raised rails that don't require crossbars. I recommend the Surco Safari Rack 5.0 Rooftop Cargo Basket for Factory Rails, part # SPS4560-1101. This basket is 60" long x 45" wide and comes with the adapters for the raised rails. If you find that you need more space or if the 45" isn't long enough to reach between your rails, we have a much larger option, part # SPS5084-1101, that measures 84" long x 50" wide. I've linked to a video review of these baskets that...

  • Does EcoHitch 306-X7320 Fit 2020 Kia Sorento SX Model
  • EcoHitch would be the final authority on the models of the 2020 Kia Sorento that their hitch # 306-X7320 fits. So since they state that this hitch fits the SX models it for sure does fit the SX models. For trailer wiring you'd then want the part # 118583 and you'd be set. This is easiest to install and most reliable option.

  • Determining Which Rear Suspension Enhancement Fits 2016 Kia Sorento
  • I would be happy to help you find the correct Coil SumoSpring for your 2016 Kia Sorento, but you will need to measure the distance between the middle coils on your vehicle as there are no options that are confirmed to fit at this time. When taking this measurement you will need to have the vehicle on the ground, and make sure that the measurement you get is within 1/4" of the other side. The # CSS-1069R you were looking at fits coil springs that have a gap of 3/8". If this is what the...

  • Fit of Curt Class III C34ER Trailer Hitch on 2021 Kia Sorento Hybrid EX
  • According to Curt Manufacturing, their # C34ER Class III hitch will fit all models of the 2021 Kia Sorento, including the hybrid EX model. If you'll use the hitch for towing, a trailer wiring harness like # C59496 would be needed as well as a # 2753 ball mount, as well as # 19260 for a 1-7/8 or # 63845 for a 2 inch trailer ball. I've linked to the installation instructions for the hitch as well to a demonstration video for the wiring harness that you'll find helpful.

  • What Hitch Bike Rack will Fit My Fat-Tire Bike with a 49-Inch Wheelbase on My 2020 Kia Sorento?
  • Since the wheelbase is measured from the center of the front wheel to center of the rear wheel, the wheelbase of your bike with 20-inch diameter tires is 49 inches. This factors in the 10-inch radius of each wheel (since it measures 69 inches from front tire edge to rear tire edge). With this particular wheelbase, it will unfortunately not fit the Saris SuperClamp EX Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches # SA4025F. This is because the SuperClamp EX only fits wheelbases up to 48...

  • Does Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver Fit 2021 Kia Sorento Hybrid
  • I checked directly with Curt for you, and can confirm the trailer hitch you mentioned does in fact fit your 2021 Kia Sorento Hybrid: - Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C34ER This is a really nice choice for a hitch on your Sorento because it is a custom fit that does not require any drilling into the frame to install, and it has a concealed crosstube so that the only part showing is the receiver, allowing your Sorento to maintain its streamlined look.

  • Do Air Lift 1000 Air Helper Springs for Coil Springs Fit 2019 Kia Sorento AWD
  • Yes, I verified with the manufacturer, Air Lift, that their helper springs will absolutely fit your 2019 Kia Sorento with all-wheel drive; the correct part is the following: - Air Lift 1000 Air Helper Springs for Coil Springs # AL29PD The # AL29PD are going to do a really nice job to help level out your Sorento as you are towing, and continue to give your suspension additional support as you are towing, improving your overall Sorento's overall handling.

  • Vehicle Wiring Harness & Trailer Hitch Receiver Confirmed to Fit 2023 Kia Sorento SX Prestige Hybrid
  • In the event your 2023 Kia Sorento SX Prestige plug-in hybrid has the factory tow package wiring you will need either the Tekonsha 4-Way # 118269 or 7-Way # TK24FR. You can determine if you have the factory connectors by checking in the rear drivers side fender area. You can watch one of installation videos for these which will show you how to access the area the connectors are in. If you do not have the factory tow package connections you will then need the Curt 4-Way # C99DR harness...

  • Trunk Mount Bike Rack Recommendation for 2017 Kia Sorento and 2006 Buick Lucerne
  • I recommend going with the Yakima FullBack 2 Bike Rack # Y02634 which is confirmed to fit both your 2017 Kia Sorento and your 2006 Buick Lucerne. This is one of my favorite trunk mount racks because it has easy-to-use features but it also has the quality to back it up. I've actually had the opportunity to install this rack a few times so I'm adding a link to one of my videos on a 2020 Audi Q7 so you can get my thoughts on it. The adapter bar I mention in the video for kid's and alternative-frame...

  • Roof Rack For 2021 Kia Sorento With Factory Flush Rails
  • We do have a roof rack for your 2021 Kia Sorento, but the Thule Roof Rack you're looking at # TH7604-TH7604 will not work. You will need to get the Thule Clip Kit # TH28JQ, Evo Flush Rail # TH710601 and Wingbar Evo 50" Rails # TH711320.

  • Roof Rack and Cargo Carrier Recommendation for Raised Rails on a 2021 Kia Sorento
  • Thanks for reaching out! As of right now (October 2022) the only roof rack confirmed to fit the raised rails on your 2021 Kia Sorento are from Thule and they include the following parts: 34" WingBar Edge - # TH56RE 37-1/2" WingBar Edge - # TH29RE Edge Raised Rail Feet - # TH69SC Lock Core Kit - # TH450400 (optional) Then to install a Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform Rack on the roof rack I recommend using the 48" Long x 38" Wide # RR42114BF since it will just fit the spacing between the legs...

  • Do I Need An Adapter To Carry My RadRover 6 Plus With A Swagman Patrol 2 Bike Rack for Truck Beds
  • I spoke with someone from RadRover about your forks axle length and I have one solution and I might have a second solution. My recommendation would be to get the Kuat Dirtbag Phat 9 Fat Bike Rack - Fork Mount - Bolt On - 9 mm Quick-Release Skewer, part # DRT9P. It is designed for fat tire bikes with 9mm quick release skewers. It is a permanent mount, so if you do not want to install it directly to your truck bed, you could probably affix two of them to a 2 X 4. If you are not interested...

  • Can Dexter 6,000 Lb Electric Brake Kit Be Used On A 5,200 Lb Axle
  • Yes, the brake assemblies part # 23-105-106 can be used on a 5.2k axle as long as the mounting flange bolt pattern is 5-bolts, the wheel size is 14-1/2", 15" or 16" and your existing hubs are 12" hubs. You will also need mounting bolts and hardware for 12" brake assemblies part # BRKH12. The only issue you may run into using brakes rated higher than the axle capacity is they could be too aggressive. However this can be overcome by adjusting the brakes themselves and/or turning down the...

  • Most Hidden Trailer Hitch to Fit a 2014 Kia Sorento EX
  • Hidden Hitch is a brand of hitches that's owned by the same company that owns Draw-Tite. The Hidden Hitch line has actually been discontinued and in most cases there is a Draw-Tite hitch replacement that is exactly the same. There is a Draw-Tite hitch that fits your 2014 Kia Sorento EX, it's part # 75772, and although it isn't exactly like the etrailer.com hitch you looked at, part # E98841, they do install and fit in basically the same way. The etrailer.com hitch actually has an identical...

  • Air Lift 1000 Air Helper Springs for 2012 Kia Sorento
  • The Air Lift 1000 Air Helper Springs item # AL60732 are not confirmed to fit your 2012 Kia Sorento. Those springs are for a Toyota Sienna. I just spoke to my rep at Airlift and they do not have any suspension pieces confirmed to fit your 2012 Kia Sorento but you can measure the springs for possible fit of one of the universal spring kits like item # AL60908. Airlift universal kits have air bags that measure for 3 inches in diameter up to 5 1/2 inches and 5 1/2 inches tall to 11 1/2 inches....
