Experience

My Hyundai Sonata has been a good car. I have taken good care of her since I had her. Couldn't be happier. If I had the choice to buy it again I would. I will probably buy a new Hyundai Sonata, when I buy again.

Still going strong.

This car still drives and runs beautifully. 2003. I am very impressed with how well it has held up all these years. We put a better stereo and clock in it - thank you Best Buy - but you can’t beat the vehicle itself!!

Hyndai

Owned since 2002 no major complaints and been reliable. Told of check engine light comes on should go to dealer as sensors are difficult to trace. Only happened once several years ago. Car engine seems sound. Friend was in car as passenger and said they felt more safe with solid body as compared to their new Nissan.

Very good automobile

Brought this car new and have enjoyed it since 2002. Have only experienced routine issues which is expected with ANY automobile. I'm a loyal Hyundai customer and I will definitely own another Hyundai.

i hated my 2011 sonata

not a good design. I'm short. Can't see out back to back up. My wife is also short. See could not see out the front window very well. It had to many things wrong the first year I owned It .Tom Ahl got me out of that thing into a 2012 Azera. My wife bought a 2002 sonata new. We still have it, Great car,

Hyundai Sonata such a good car

I bought my Hyundai Sonata in 2002 and it has been an absolute pleasure. It has only had the usual service issues, and the more amazing thing it that it looks as beautiful now as it did in 2002. The clear coat has kept the silver paint pristine and shiny!

2002 Sonata Great Car!

My 2002 Sonata is the best car I've owned, out of 11 cars! My Sonata has been dependable, maintenance has been affordable over the years, and gas millage has been really good! If I buy another car, it will be a Sonata or Genesis.

One of a Kind

I only wish that the models in the newest line had the beauty, luxury feel, and overall bang-for-the-buck of this car. It looks so much like the Jaguar from around that time, that it was often mistaken for one. I have not seen a car anywhere, made by anyone, that has the class, comfort, and sheer value of this one. I will grieve when I have to let her go.

Just keeps goin

I just hit 277,000 miles on my 2002 Hyundai Sonata. My car has only ever been worked on at the Patrick Hyundai in Schaumburg. Was bought there new in 2002 & I bought it used in 2012. Sure with age I've had to put some money into it but she just keeps going.

2002 Sonata

The car has given us over 247,000 miles of service. We enjoy the ride and the quick pickup for a small 4 cylinder engine. The trunk is large and inside the passenger compartment is also spacious. We like the Pearl color on hot days it helps to keep us cool.

I love my 2002 Hyundai Sonata

I love my 2002 Hyundai Sonata. It's been a very reliable vehicle. I have driven it from Connecticut to Canada and later to California, so it's been from coast to coast and has more than 200,000 miles on it. I was fortunate to have quality leather seats in my vehicle so it still looks brand-new inside.

Great running car after 16 years

This 16 year old car with 90,000 miles does not have a bit of rust on the body. Run's great, comfortable seating. Start's reliably in the winter cold. Great a/c which never needed recharge in 16 years. Leather interior is still like new. One of the best car values.

Classy sonata gls

When I bought this used 2002 Hyundai sonata I never expected such a classy looking car for that year. The mileage was low, and it's performance was great. I was impressed because I had plenty of leg room and it even had a sunroof. It was the perfect size for me and no problem in parking it. The seats were very comfortable to sit in.I also liked the features and interior design. There is also plenty of room in the trunk. I can assure you my next car will be a Hyundai.

2002 Sonata

For the price this has been a quality vehicle. It has provided dependable service with standard maintenance. Had to use the power train warranty once and it was not an issue. Radio and clock are an issue.

2002 Sonata

It has turned out to be a very good car. I service at the dealer and never seem to have any issues. Service people seem to always do a good job and explain any concerns completely. I appreciate the quality of the work.

Great investment

16 years on the road and still counting. Purchased new with 4 miles and now it has 282k. Kiddo drives it. When time comes, will buy a new model. But until then, we will drive this one until the wheels come off
