Some Kia Sorento owners report experiencing water leakage from the wiper fluid reservoir, which may stem from several potential causes. A common issue includes pump seam failure, where the seam on the pump is prone to leaking. Additionally, some owners note that filling the washer bottle with water instead of the appropriate windshield wiper fluid can lead to cracks and leaks in the system. Furthermore, leaks in the reservoir itself can result in wiper fluid loss, making it essential to check for signs of moisture or dripping water. Prolonged exposure to high temperatures may also degrade rubber seals, hoses, and reservoirs, contributing to leaks and inefficiencies. It is advisable for owners to inspect these areas thoroughly to identify and resolve the source of the leakage effectively.
