Hyundai Vehicle Positive Review

Own a 2009 Hyundai Sonata V6 and a 2002.Hyundai Elantra GT. Have had no major issues with either vehicle. Hyundai has good products and they stand behind their 100, 000 mile warranty on their vehicles.

A great car

The car had been an Enterprise rent vehicle. I purchased in 2010. Currently at 198,000 miles, the only maintenance has been routine. At 180,000 miles I ordered every maintenance item in the back of the owner’s manual to be accomplished. Most items are check and repair/replace as needed. The only thing needed was a radiator flush and new spark plugs. It drives straight almost hands off. The ride is smooth. Acceleration is good. Tires wear evenly. Brakes are original and good. It uses no oil. I use Mobil 10,000 mile oil and a high end oil filter. Belts and hoses are original and pass inspection. The seat covers are worn from hard use and from my canine co pilot. But everything works , radio, blinkers, wipers, all lights, A/C and heater. The auto transmission is so smooth you really have to listen to hear the shifting. It is a great car, reliable, good ride, economical, 30 miles per gallon. I would gladly drive another Hyundai Sonata.

No major issues but many cosmetic issues.

So far no major repairs have been needed on my 2009 Sonata but many cosmetic issues. The dash cracked radio stopped working but had always gotten very hot when a cd played. 2 door handles broke. The clasp on the middle console broke. The gas tank door no longer opens and a window stopped working. It is an old car but has been good to me as far as it running me place to place. Has been across country several times.

Great car

When I brought this car, I thought it was the best decision I made and to this day this car has lived up to its potential and reliability. This decision I made to buy this car has not let me down in any way.

Love My Sonata

This is my 2nd Sonata and it now has 168,800 miles and going strong! I have never had any complaints with anything about either one of my Sonatas! I’ve had many cars in my life, but have never had a better one than the Sonata.

Great car!!

My Hyundai Sonota has almost 185,000 miles on it and it still runs great! My son now drives it and he loves it as well. We’ve always taken it to Hyundai for timely and regular oil changes and maintenance. One of the best cars I’ve ever bought!

Still a dependable car after 12 years. No major problems and still looks good

12 years and still going. No major probems. Good design body still looks good and stylish. This is our second Hyundai to buy. We bought our daughter a new Elantra in 1993 that was Peacock green. A fun colored car or her to drive to college. Best little car and a good stereo system for 1993. She liked it alot. We knew it was a good value and dependable so when we need a car that we could transport an elderly parent in and drive to work daily, Hyundai was the 1st place we headed. After comparing other cars in the same price range, Hyundai offered the best features that we needed and wanted.

Trust

I have had my Sonata for many years and it has been an extremely reliable car. It has served me well and I have had no problems. I would strongly recommend the car to anyone looking. "Trust worthy" is the word(s).

Now it’s demanding more work every other month , which is pathetic

Now my vehicle Ihs’s run only 122500 miles and it needs more work every other month , like I replaced battery alternator and now there are some oil leakage, which is little frustrating, else it’s very nice car .

Overall love it

I love my car. it’s very reliable and very good gas saver. However it’s very hard to find new battery terminals for it. Other than that it’s a great car, I’ve had it for almost a year now and I bought it used

Sonata compared with my Ford Ranger

My Sonata gets FAR better gas mileage than my Ranger, and its brakes are much more reliable. Your insistence that a text response should be a minimum of 200 characters is too much trouble since I have already said I want to say.

2009 Hyundai Sonata

I purchased this car new. I have about 128,000 miles on it. i expect to put at least another 128,000 miles on it. I have not had any major repair problems. I have only had to replace wear and tear parts. This is probably my favorite car that i have owed. The air conditioning blows cool in the summer and the heater blows hot air in the winter. The car seats 5 adults comfortably and gets between 20 and 30 miles per gallon mileage. Hyundai is different than most auto manufacturers. If there is something wrong with the auto it is recalled and repaired for free. Hyundai doesn't wait for a tragedy to occur to fix a flaw. This is another reason why i would purchase another Hyundai when i wear this one out.

Hyundai good cars, good value

I was introduced to the Hyundai brand through experience with a car rental. I was highly impressed with the power and smoothness of the vehicle handling. As a result, my choice for my next car purchase was a Hyundai. I bought a 2009 Hyundai Sonata, pre- owned with 35,000 miles in 2011. It has been a very reliable and smooth driving and powerful car even after the Hyundai Sonata went from 6 cylinders to 4. My car currently has 125,000 miles and I have had no major issues only regular maintenance items. I feel it could go for another 50,000 miles, easily.
