Trouble with shifting gears in the Kia Sorento

I recently purchased a Kia Sorento and I'm having trouble shifting gears smoothly. Every time I try to change gears, there is a jerking motion and it feels like something is catching. I'm not sure what could be causing this issue, any advice would be appreciated.

Hi Maggie, congratulations on your new Kia Sorento! It seems like you may be experiencing some transmission issues. My advice would be to take your car to a certified mechanic and have them take a look at the transmission. They can diagnose the issue and recommend the best course of action.

Hey there Maggie, I had a similar issue with my Kia Sorento when I first got it. I found that changing the transmission fluid and filter helped solve the problem. It's a relatively inexpensive fix and can be done at home with some basic tools.

Sorry to hear about your troubles, Maggie. I had a similar issue with my Kia Sorento and it turned out to be a faulty shift solenoid. A mechanic was able to easily replace it and my shifting was smooth again.
