And that is precisely why, like you, I have all the maintenance done at the dealership. One question for you - have any of your engine failures been in a 6 cylinder? I know they have had numerous issues with their 4-cylinder engines, but I haven't heard much about the 6-cylinder engines. Our Sorento is a V6.
