Kia Sorento: 2008 Kia Soranto periodic problem- turn key,no start

Mon, 01 Jun 2026 05:04:33 -0700

turn key no start. Try many times, dash lights come on as normally. I go to "fuse/relay box" unplug relay and push back in, juggle all of them, try start sometimes still nothing then go back to "box" and repeat and seems to help and starts. Same problem for about 2 years. Took it to Kia Dealer , they could find nothing wrong. Problem still continues every few days. Problem?? How to repair?

Shifter stuck in neutra,l won't move. This car belongs to my neighbor. You are an insider if you're not partisan what do you see happening he said it happened when he was rocking it to get unstuck. I haven't looked at it yet but will check fuses as well as brake light switch and neutral safety switch.

2015-Present Kia Sorento: Ignition Issue - Battery connection dies after dash lights up

Thu, 29 May 2025 18:39:08 -0700

Long title, but intermittent battery failure during ignition. Turning to run, the dash lights up. Go to crank, everything goes black. Total power failure. Usually works after a door slam, banging on the steering wheel or closing the hood. Wiring issue? Fuse?

The battery, starter and alternator all check out good.
