Which Kia Sportage Hybrid years should you avoid?

We cover 3 model years of the Kia Sportage Hybrid, too few to say which stand out.

NHTSA does not publish sales figures, so these are complaint counts, not a rate per car on the road. A year that sold more cars collects more complaints, and older years have had longer to collect them.
