Q: Hi, Joe! I hope this finds you well. I need a few things worked on on my '06 Sorento. I would like to start with the driver's seat

asked by on April 12, 2017

Hi! I need a few things worked on on my '06 Sorento. I would like to start with the driver's seat being able to lift upwards. The back portion is leaned all the way back from a tow truck driver and it will not move up again. All other movements work so it can be anything from a cleaning or a switch replacement. I also need a fan belt replaced- nor sure which one but it occasionally shrieks on start up then goes away quickly. The valve gasket cover needs to be replaced/fixed and the passenger window needs to be able to roll down- it is currently plugged since it would not roll up. I took it apart and wedged it in the up position until I could get it properly fixed. Any quotes on these items would be great and I would like to get this all done as soon as possible. Thank you for your assistance!
