How is ur day?
I’m checking out a 2018 Kia Sorento EX with the 3.3L V6. It’s got 174k miles on it, and they’re asking $9k. Yeah, I know that’s a lot of miles, but I haven’t found anything else with the same features and AWD that fits my budget.
The owner says most of the miles are from highway driving, and it’s been serviced every 3 months. I don’t drive much—had my current car for 3.5 years and only put 17k miles on it—so I’m thinking I could still get some good use out of it
What do you guys think? Worth the risk or is the mileage too much? Best wishes…
It might be a wise purchase if you can locate a reasonably priced, well-maintained 2018 Kia Sorento and you’re willing to take on the associated risks. Doing your research, though, is crucial to avoiding any possible issues later on.
To be sure the vehicle has received routine maintenance, ask for a comprehensive history of repairs.
Inspect for any completed major repairs or replacements.
Get the automobile checked out by a mechanic to look for wear and tear, particularly on the brakes, engine, transmission, and suspension.
Keep an ear out for any strange noises and pay attention to how the car drives.
Obtain a Carfax report to look for any damage from floods, title problems, or accidents.
Get a pre-purchase inspection from a reliable mechanic.
A automobile with a high mileage may not be defective, but it may also be showing signs of wear and tear. The type of driving the vehicle—on a highway, in a city, or off-road—can have an effect on its state.
