This replacement is compatible with OEM numbers 817711u000, 81771-1u000, 817711U000, SG350010. If you are sourcing replacement liftgate struts by OEM number, vehicle year, or sample, Gastac can help confirm the right solution for your Kia Sorento application.

When Should You Replace Kia Sorento Liftgate Struts?

Kia Sorento liftgate struts should be replaced when the liftgate becomes heavy, slowly drops after opening, or no longer stays safely in the raised position. These problems are usually caused by internal gas pressure loss, worn seals, repeated opening and closing, or long-term use.

• Common symptoms: The liftgate slowly falls, feels heavy to lift, opens unevenly, or cannot stay fully open.
• Main causes: Gas pressure loss, seal aging, frequent use, temperature changes, or weakened support force over time.
