Hyundai Entourage problems
The Kia Carnival (Korean: 기아 카니발) is a minivan manufactured by Kia since 1998. It was marketed globally under various nameplates, prominently as the Kia Sedona.
The first generation Carnival was introduced in January 1998, and was marketed in a single, short wheelbase version. Second generation models were marketed (2006–2014) in short and long wheelbase variants. A rebadged variant of the second generation was offered in North America as the Hyundai Entourage (2007–2009). Beginning in 2010, the second generation model received updated equipment, including Kia's corporate Tiger Nose grille, as introduced by its then new design chief, Peter Schreyer. Kia introduced its third generation minivan in 2014, solely in a long wheelbase format. The fourth generation was introduced in 2020, when Kia also began using the Carnival nameplate worldwide.
First generation (KV-II; 1998)
The first generation model was manufactured and marketed differently for specific regions, including under a joint venture in the Chinese market with Dongfeng Yueda Kia, as well as the Naza Ria in Malaysia.
In Indonesia and the Philippines, both Carnival/Sedona names were used. Initially introduced as the Carnival in 2001, from 2003 onwards, it was renamed as the Sedona.

The minivan is very well-built and performs just as well as a Japanese-built Honda Odyssey. In fact, it's even roomier and bigger, with fantastic options available at a competitive price. The smooth and quiet ride only adds to its value.

Vehicle year: 2008
I have taken my van on two long distance trips and I am very satisfied with its comfort and handling. It's fun to drive and the trip computer and rear sensors are great features. Although, I do wish I had upgraded to receive the power gate as the back does not always close properly when loaded. Overall, I highly recommend this van!

Vehicle year: 2007
This van is definitely worth a test drive. What's great about it is that most of the standard features are options on other vans or not available at all. For instance, it comes with standard traction control, standard stability control, and power sliding side doors. We were only looking for the base SE model, but with the owner loyalty rebate, we were able to get an SE with the PE package, and it has been nothing short of awesome. It comes with a rear DVD, 6-disc CD player with 13 speakers and surround sound, and heated front seats. We previously returned a 01 town & country on a lease, and the sticker price between them was $1890.00. The town & country only had air conditioning, power windows, antilock brakes, and a cassette player. We didn't even consider Honda or Toyota because they can't match the warranty.

I have had two other types of mini vans and this van drives and performs by far above the rest. It has tremendous room and the ability to change the seating capabilities with one hand. This makes it a great family vehicle. The safety features are a comfort, especially with poor weather approaching and our family having a new baby. Thank you Hyundai, this is a fantastic asset.
Are you having problems with your Hyundai Entourage?
Rigoberto Runolfsdottir 2024-10-26
Vehicle year: 2007
Hello everyone, I wanted to share my experience with the Entourage minivan. While I was initially drawn to the Hyundai brand, unfortunately my experience with this vehicle has not been great. I've had to deal with a number of issues, including a broken DVD player, a broken armrest, and multiple problems with the brakes and ignition. Additionally, I've had ongoing battery and wiring issues that have been difficult to diagnose and fix. The powered side doors are a nice feature, but they can be unreliable in cold weather. Overall, I've been disappointed with this vehicle and would caution others against purchasing it. Thank you for taking the time to read my experience.
Sigmund Barton 2024-09-26
Vehicle year: 2008
I paid 10,000 to 15,000 dollars for my vehicle, which provided me with good value for my money compared to the Toyota Sienna or Honda Odyssey. However, I regret purchasing this particular vehicle as it has not met my expectations. The after-sales service has been disappointing, despite their advertised warranty. The auto sliding doors are frequently jammed, the instrumentation panel is unreliable, and the cruise control does not work properly. Additionally, the steering wheel has a sharp edge. These issues have led me to believe that this vehicle is not worth the 31,000 dollars we spent on it.
Darrion Koelpin 2024-09-03
Vehicle year: 2007
I've taken my van to two different dealerships for a total of five visits, driving over 500 miles out of the 3000 miles I've owned it. Unfortunately, it has needed a radiator replacement and has had numerous leaks in the heating system. It's been towed twice and driven back three times for these leaks. I reached out to Hyundai consumer assistance and while they offered to help the dealership fix the vehicle, they did not offer a replacement. Despite these issues, I still believe this is a great van, and I'm hopeful that the dealership will be able to resolve the remaining problems.

I paid 10,000 to 15,000 dollars for my vehicle, which provided me with good value for my money. In contrast, I spent 31,000 dollars on a Toyota Sienna or Honda Odyssey, which I consider a waste. Unfortunately, the after-sales service was not satisfactory. Although the warranty was advertised as excellent, it did not meet my expectations. The auto sliding doors frequently jammed, the instrumentation panel was unreliable, and the cruise control did not work correctly. Additionally, the steering wheel had a sharp edge. Overall, I believe that my previous vehicle provided better value for my money.
Westley Cruickshank 2024-06-11
Vehicle year: 2008
This car has a defect with the starter and wiring, as well as an issue with the antitheft system. However, it is important to note that these issues have been ongoing since the time of purchase. While the Key Hyundai service department has been unable to resolve the issue, we remain confident in our assessment of the vehicle. We advise caution when considering a purchase from this dealership, but we stand by our decision to purchase the vehicle and believe that it can be a reliable mode of transportation with the right repairs.
