1. Sorento Model: 2005
2. Type of Bolt (Gold/Gray) : Gold
3. Speedo in Km/Miles the Bolt Broke 1st Time : 55,500 miles
4. Schedule Maintenance before breakage: 60,000 miles
5. Current Speedo Reading Km/Miles : 55,525

Just got it out the shop yesterday. My VIN was not part of the crankshaft bolt recall, but it should have been. It took 2 weeks to fix including doing the ICV campaign. Dealership was very helpful. The KIA rep only wanted to replace the crankshaft, but because I did all of the required schedule maintance they replace the short block. This would have been a $6K fix I didn't do all of the required maintance.
