Review on 🔧 New Starter Replacement for 2.4L Kia Optima & Sorento (2011-2014), Hyundai Sonata (2009-2014), Santa Fe & Sport (2010-2014) - Part Numbers: 36100-2G100, FS14N1 by Brian Rogel

Local parts store will charge around $300 for a rebuilt unit. Works great for the price, longevity is yet to be seen. The factory starter fault is the plastic plug in the unit, it breaks, it's a $15 thing. I chose this unit as I have over 200,000 miles on a 2012 4th Sorento. Installation isn't too bad if you remove the battery, airbox and throttle body and then find 2 x 14mm screws. Basically, you can't see the starter. Either way it works and hopefully works for what's left of the car's life.
