This is tough to review, product look to be good quality but wasn’t able to install. It arrived to Canada with a little extra surprise cost (20$) so be prepared for that. Some companies include this duty some don’t I prefer they do then there’s no surprises!
Ok first I’d say if your buying this for a 2016 Kia Sorrento e-trailers website says it fits which it may very well. But finding out the hard way Kia’s don’t add this trailer wiring from factory unless it’s requested, which then a hitch/wiring are installed at factory making this harness absolutely pointless to manufacture. So if your adding a trailer hitch to a Kia there’s no OEM quick kit that will work because they don’t even wire in the fuse holder let alone run wiring plugs you see in e-trailers videos.
Do yourself a huge favour pull plastic down on car and look for wiring that’s not there before purchasing this “OEM” easy install kit. It be wonderful if it worked but your more than likely buying the CURT wiring harness which requires you to run a power wire under car up frame nightmare. It’s beyond me why a company couldn't make a OEM plug/play that literally plugs into existing tail light plug that’s mounted where trailer plays go if you order from factory.
Anyways good luck this Hopkins plug/play kit looks to be good but not exactly plug/play into taillight harness like it should be so do so pulmonary work or you’ll get burnt like I did, chances are I’m stuck with negative 140$ can
