If you were thinking about getting a new Kia at your Kia dealership, you might be asking yourself whether you should buy or lease. Consider some of the leasing benefits as you make your decision. Check out five benefits you’ll get when you lease a brand new Kia from your local dealership. more 1. No Depreciation Hit for You When you buy a vehicle, whether new or used, you have to bear the cost of depreciation as the vehicle gets older and puts more miles on the odometer. One of the benefits of leasing, however, is that none of that is your worry. You just get to put yourself and your family into a new vehicle every couple of years and let someone else deal with depreciation. 2. No Repair Costs Not only do you not have to take the depreciation hit, but you also often don't have to be on the hook for repairs. If anything goes wrong, it will likely be under warranty so your dealership will take care of it, and they'll either give you a temporary replacement while they fix your original vehicle, or they'll swap it out for another vehicle entirely. In some cases, much of the maintenance is covered, as well. Check the terms of your lease agreement and discuss this with us at the dealership if it's important to you to include maintenance in the lease. Of course there are exceptions, such as accidents, but for the most part, many repairs will be covered under your new car warranty. 3. No Worries About Reselling If you own a car, it's constantly in the back of your mind that you may have to resell it at some point. The first problem here is that you have to decide when to resell it. Should you wait a little longer to get more out of it yourself, and how will that affect the resale price? Maybe even more important, though, is the hassle of reselling. Whether you do it privately or you trade it in, there's just some inevitable hoops that must be jumped through. When you lease, you don't have to worry about any of that. 4. Drive Away Without Emptying Your Bank Account Buying a car often means coming up with a pretty big down payment. Maybe you don't have that kind of cash on hand. And while some people trade in their current vehicle in lieu of much of the down payment, what if you don't want to trade in or don't have one to trade in? When you lease, there's no need to put down a huge down payment, and your monthly payments are usually lower, too. 5. Get a New Car Every Few Years If you just enjoy trying out new vehicles and new tech, and you don't want to worry about the hassle that comes as cars start to age, with more maintenance requirements and a greater chance of breakdowns, leasing is a great option for you. If you're looking to lease your next Kia, come see us at Auffenberg Kia in Shiloh, IL today.

The 3-row 2024 Kia Sorento Hybrid is a comfortable and efficient choice for families, with seating for six and a turbo hybrid engine that sips gasoline. From bumper to bumper, this SUV is loaded with innovative features that add safety, fun, and convenience to every trip. Let’s take a few minutes to explore five innovative features that the 2024 Kia Sorento Hybrid brings to the table. more 1. Highway Driving Assist The 2024 Kia Sorento Hybrid is equipped with an impressive list of standard driver assistance features, including Highway Driving Assist (HDA). This helpful technology works on compatible highways and can automatically adjust your vehicle's steering, acceleration, and braking. It detects the vehicle ahead of yours and maintains a safe distance, even if traffic comes to a complete stop. HDA also detects lane markers on the road and keeps you centered in your lane. 2. Smart Power Tailgate When your hands are full, the Sorento Hybrid makes it easy to access the cargo area hands-free with its Smart Power Tailgate. Just stand behind it with your Smart Key for three seconds, and the tailgate opens automatically. Even the Sorento Hybrid's cargo area is innovative, featuring a dual-level cargo floor with extra storage underneath. The 50/50 split second- and third-row seats fold easily, expanding the cargo area from 12.6 cu. ft. to 75.5 cu. ft. 3. 1.6-Liter Turbo Hybrid Engine The Sorento Hybrid averages up to an EPA-estimated 37 MPG combined, thanks to its 1.6-liter turbo GDI hybrid engine and 6-speed automatic transmission. This engine gives you 227 horsepower and 258 lb.-ft. of torque, so you can easily merge with highway traffic or pass a slower vehicle ahead. When the road becomes slick, available all-wheel drive distributes this power to the wheels that have the best traction. 4. Kia Connect Your Sorento Hybrid comes with a 1-year subscription to Kia Connect, giving you access to convenient remote tasks through the Kia Access app on your smartphone. Your vehicle can be comfortable as soon as you get inside when you start the engine remotely and set the climate control before you head out. With Digital Key 2 capability, you can even use your smartphone as a virtual key fob and share your Digital Key with friends and family. 5. Easy-to-Use Infotainment A large 10.25-inch touchscreen provides a crystal-clear display and intuitive interface for the Sorento Hybrid's navigation and infotainment systems. If you prefer to go hands-free, you can interact using voice recognition. You can also connect your smartphone using wireless Android Auto or Apple CarPlay to play music on the 6-speaker audio system, display apps, or access your contacts. Are you ready to check out the Sorento Hybrid's Smart Power Tailgate or driver assistance features for yourself? Now is the time; outgoing year models are driving away fast, and we’ve got great deals on our remaining inventory! To schedule your test drive, contact Auffenberg Kia in Shiloh, IL.

Have you been having problems shifting gears recently? That typically means it's time to visit your Kia dealership for transmission service. There are other signs that show up when your vehicle needs a transmission repair, too, and we'll take a look at many of them below. Read on to explore six signs your Kia needs a transmission service from your local Kia dealership. more 1. Your Car Keep Slipping Out of Gear Slipping out of gear is among the most common symptoms of transmission problems. Your transmission simply fails to engage the gears properly, or it may shift between gears while you're driving. When you're slipping gears, you may notice that your engine revs but doesn't speed up. You could also feel like you're struggling to accelerate or decelerate when you want to. 2. Your Car Won't Change Gears Sometimes your car will simply refuse to change gears when your transmission is having problems. Alternatively, you may be able to change gears, but it could be more difficult to do than it used to be. This can be caused by dirt and debris accumulating in your transmission fluid over time, contaminating it. 3. Your Car Is Kicking and Shaking Gear shifts should be smooth, with no real reaction from your car other than the gears actually shifting. However, cars with a faulty transmission might shake, kick, or jolt when the gears change. If you drive a manual transmission vehicle, then the gears might grind while you're shifting if there's a problem with the transmission. 4. Your Transmission Fluid Is Leaking Sometimes things go wrong with the transmission, causing leaks. You could have a puncture in the transmission cooler hose, a damaged transmission pan, or worn seals that are letting the red, sweet-smelling transmission fluid leak out. If you spot a red puddle underneath your car, then you can be pretty sure that you're seeing transmission fluid that's leaking out of it. 5. Your Car Gets Noisy in Neutral Cars aren't supposed to be noisy when they're in neutral. However, if your transmission is in disrepair, then your car might start making noises. Listen out for any noises that your car doesn't usually make while in neutral, as they can be a sign of both major and minor transmission issues. 6. Your Transmission Is Overheating If you smell something burning while you're driving, then get to the dealer as soon as you can. This smell can indicate lots of different problems with various systems in your vehicle. If your transmission is the problem, the smell indicates that your transmission fluid is old and burning up or that your transmission is overheating. If your transmission is telling you it's time for a checkup, then contact Auffenberg Kia in Shiloh, IL as soon as you can. You can get in touch with us at 618-624-2277 or schedule service online.

Cars perform better when they're full of OEM parts. These parts last a long time, fit perfectly, and perform better overall. If your car needs new parts, you should always get them through your Kia dealer. When you get these parts at your local dealer, they're guaranteed to be made by the original equipment manufacturer. Learn some other reasons why OEM parts from your Kia dealer are crucial for your Kia’s performance. more They Fit and Work Excellently OEM components are made to fit into your vehicle perfectly. They require no adjustments before they can be placed in. Because the part fits so well, you know your car's performance won't suffer due to an ill-fitting component. Ensuring your new part is compatible with the pre-existing parts in your car is also vital. Because the new OEM component is an exact replica of the old one, it's guaranteed to work seamlessly with the parts already in your car. The new part will work exactly the way the old part did before it failed, so your car will perform as seamlessly as you're used to. They're Very High Quality Parts made by the car's original equipment manufacturer are made using the best quality materials and have to meet very high quality standards. Before these parts can be sold, they need to undergo rigorous quality testing. Every OEM component sold is of the highest quality thanks to all the standards they have to meet. Because they're so high-quality, you know they're going to help your car perform at its best. Parts made with lower-quality materials may begin to break down, causing performance problems with your car. That's why you should avoid aftermarket parts, which don't need to be made using any specific materials and don't have to undergo rigorous manufacturer testing before they're sold. They Require No Adjustments Aftermarket parts often need to be adjusted before they can be put into your car, but that's never the case with OEM components. It's relatively simple for the mechanics at your local dealership to get the parts fitted into your car promptly. This saves time when you bring your car in to have the new part fitted. They're Long-Lasting High-quality parts last longer than lower-quality parts. So, when you get an OEM component, you know it's going to keep your car running well for many years. You don't have the same guarantee when you choose aftermarket parts, as they tend to break down faster and need to be replaced more often than OEM components. Come pay us a visit at Auffenbrg Kia in Shiloh, IL when you need new parts for your car. If you know what part you need, then order it through our website today.

Are you starting to lose confidence in your tires? If you've experienced a sudden loss of traction on a wet patch of the road or noticed your cornering and braking become less exact, it may be time for new tires. Any of the following warning signs should prompt you to visit your local Kia dealership right away to have your tires examined or replaced. more Diminished Tread Depths After four to six years of use, the treads of most tires will wear too thin for safe use. The minimum legal tread depth in Illinois is 2/32 of an inch. It's generally considered a good idea to replace your tires even before they become this shallow. You can use a tread depth gauge to measure the treads of your tires. You can also use a penny; insert the coin into the tread voids at a central part of the tire with Abe’s head inside the tread. If you can see all of Lincoln's head, the treads are too shallow, and you need a new set of tires. Less Firm Tire Traction When on the road, it's important to feel absolute confidence in your tires at all times. If you sense reduced traction during wet weather, have your tires inspected by a professional without delay. You may need replacements. Excessive Vibrations Worn-out tires will gradually worsen your handling and generate more road noise and vibrations. If your car seems excessively noisy and shaky, ask a trusted technician to examine your tires. Unevenly Worn Tires If you routinely have your tires rotated, they'll last a good deal longer. Regular rotations combat uneven tire wear, keeping all four tires in a similar condition. Neglecting to rotate your tires may cause them to wear down unevenly to an excessive degree, which will cause all kinds of trouble and may mean you need to prematurely replace all four. Cracked, Cut, or Bulging Rubber Serious damage to the rubber of any tire usually makes it no longer safe to use. If a tire's sidewalls have myriad cracks that are spreading and deepening, you'll probably need to get rid of that tire. Similarly, deep cuts or gashes threaten the structural integrity of tire rubber, as do bulges or blisters, which may indicate an internal rupture. Continual Loss of Air Pressure All drivers should check the air pressure of their tires once a month or more, maintaining the pressure at precisely the recommended PSI for their vehicle. If one of your tires is persistently losing air pressure, have it inspected by a technician; it may have a hidden puncture or some other hazardous flaw. Visit Auffenberg Kia in Shiloh, IL, today to have your tires rotated or replaced. We're a trusted local dealership offering top-notch cars, deals, and customer service.
