 We have had this 2001 sportage  for over 5 years now, the only motor items we have replaced are the timing belt and items to replace with it, and the starter.   We replaced the vacuum 4x4 with aftermarket lockouts, the vacuum 4x4 are junk from the factory.  As for the interior, the cup holder and console container lid are trash, wiper started blowing fuses when turning off, replaced fuse with a breaker, right rear window quit working so I unhooked the window motor when I got it to go back up.  Other then the few problems we have had, it has been a very dependable LITTLE suv.   Due to age and handicap, I'm replacing it with a 2002 Buick P A.  I had a 1994 Park Avenue and loved it.  The Sportage now has about 136,000 miles on it,runs very good for not having a tune up done to it sense we got it.  Normal oil-service done to it and automatic trans still operating like new.
