2001 Kia Sportage EX review from North America
"Extremely pleased with this vehicle and function of car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Had to replace brakes since purchasing vehicle. Now having some battery/stater problems.
General comments?
I have had this car for 4 years and with exception of brakes and the current problem. I have nothing, but good luck with it, never been in shop other than brakes, maintained every 3000 miles or close with oil changes and such. I have the convertible and that has worn and zipper has broke, Nothing I can't deal with. I have went on a few long trips and performs well have generally drove it 80-90 mph and no problems.
