Sportage

  • 45,000 miles
My 2001 Kia Sportage seems to have the same recall defect as the 2001-2004 optima. The car only has 45,000 miles on it and was just declared unfixable at the dealership due to the rear suspension rotted off the frame. The service technician said it was the second one he saw today, same model/year.
