(3 votes, average: 4.33 out of 5) Automotive readers have rated 2010 Kia Sedona Owners Manual 4.3 out of 5.0 based on 3 product reviews.
I downloaded the manual for my father, who just purchased a 2010 Sedona. Since the vehicle did not come with a manual, it's nice to know they're site like Need Manual on the internet to assist. The only issue I could see is on the actual manual itself. On page 3/37 the text feature on that page did not appear. The only thing that came up was the rose colored square which looks like a picture of the seats should have appeared. Other than that, I really do appreciate you guys for having the manual online!
thank you
