I can say from personal experience, CC2's handled really well in snow, ice, heavy rain and tornadoes in an older sorento.
Pros: handled well in snow
Vehicle:
Kia Sorento
I took off my KO2s from my Sorento. They wore well and still had useable tread after 55k miles. But I was tired of the noise and ride on the highway. I put on a set of these Wildpeak tires and am VERY satisfied. They are pretty quiet, ride nice, and are darn good on wet, muddy, or snowy roads.
Pros: quiet, nice ride
Cons: miss heavy sidewall

Mileage: 55000 km

The old Kia Sorento with the 3.5 V6 was bad about disintegrating the variable intake manifold runner linkage bushings, causing a vacuum leak. Last time I did one, a metal replacement manifold with the butterflies, linkage and actuators was $15 from Kia.
Pros: metal replacement manifold
Cons: disintegrating linkage bushings

Try tapping on the starter with a hammer while trying to start. If this works you need a new started.
Pros: hammer test, new starter

Learned that the battery in the Sorento was incorrect. Replaced with correct battery. All is right in the world.
Pros: correct battery, all right
Cons: incorrect battery

I’m already on my second replaced windshield with a crack already in it. Kia glass is weak as shit. 2 weeks ago I barely heard a rock tink off my glass and it cracked ( I was able to get it filled before it spread) but I’ve already got another from earlier this winter.
Cons: weak glass, cracks easily

Hyundai's and Kia's absolutely do not play nice with aftermarket alternators such as Napa and Autozone. I tried them both and they failed within days (Napa was about 1 week) I finally installed the Hyundai/Kia part and it has been fine since.
Pros: fine since installation
Cons: failed within days
