2000 Kia Sportage LX review from North America
"This vehicle is a piece of junk"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Timing belt went out first.
02 sensors went next.
Exhaust system replaced.
Coil and electrical wiring.
Valve job.
Now have a running issue; the engine starts, but if you give it gas it dies.
