Pros: What do you like about 2005 Kia Sportage?
The car worked well for the first 6 months then everything under the sun went wrong with it.

Cons: How would you improve 2005 Kia Sportage?
I bought this car new in 2005 from the dealer. I have had nothing but problems with it. It had the engine completely removed a few years ago and my car was at the dealer for 2 weeks. Now it has been back at the dealer for nearly another 2 weeks. They have replaced may parts this time---fuel pump, cylinders, now they are replacing all the fuel injectors. I have also had one of the brackets that hold the motor in place missing--who know how that happened. I will never buy another Kia again!

2005 Kia Sportage Review:
This is probably the most comfortable, quiet, reliable vehicle I have ever owned. I have had 2 GM cars 1 Ford and one Doge. This is my second Kia.
