 Detailed review:

(1 star was the lowest rating.i would give it less if it gave me the option) Where to begin, no power on hills or when passing..ive had mine in the dealership 4 times the longest being 3 weeks for a mirad of engine problems-wich finnally resulted in the entire engine being replaced..since then my door sensors have all gone out leaving me to deal with a constant beeping as if the door is open..my driverside power window works great..the other 3 windows work when they want to..sometimes going down...but takin up to 3 days before it decideds to go back up for me..ok handeling...i am a verry safe driver with an impecable driving record..at speeds under 50 ive had it on two wheels on two different occasions from breaking while in a corner.its majorly top heavy.i put 2 100lb sand bags in the rear wich makes a big difference.this being the second sportage ive owned i will refer to the old saying'fool me once shame on you fool me twice...well you know the rest
