2011 Sonata 2.0T

A nearly perfect car. Reliable, fast, great handling, quiet, great seats, great mileage, fantastic radio, and beautiful body lines. Why can't all cars be this good?

This year model is the worse ever

We have had our Sonata for the past 3 years. We bought this car from CARMAX when it had 45,000 miles on it. The Carfax was clear and the car seemed in pretty good condition. Crain Hyundai did a review and said it was road ready but could not guarantee that it was perfect (who would if it was not their car?). This car has had at least 10 recalls, needs more recalls and has front suspension issues that have plagued my car for the past 7 months. It has literally been to the Hyundai dealership three times a month for the last 6 months. Parts are outrageous and do not last. Aftermarket parts are the same. It has went though tie rods, sway bars, links for the sway bars, front rotors, front break calipers, front rotors, both front CV axels and front and rear hubs. Add this up and you can just about buy a good used car (I'm at least 6,000 into this just in the past 6 months). This car now needs a new motor due to an issue that Hyundai had leaving shavings inside the block. This car only has 107764 miles on it and has literally fallen apart.

2011 Sonata Limited.

Very nice comfortable with sufficient room, 2.4 L engine quiet power, elegant exterior and impressive modernistic interior. Standard Navigation or after purchase upgrade at reasonable cost would be better. vVoic recognition difficult even with a little accent. Very nice family car at very reasonable price.

Love this car

I never want to trade in this terrific car. "Midnight" is stylish and attention-getting. She gives a comfortable ride and gets amazing mileage, on the average of up to 50 mph on highway, long distance driving and 38-40 in the city. Midnight is my favorite auto...ever!!

2011 Sonata Hyundai

My 2011 Hyundai Sonata has a comfortable ride, has a lot of room in the backseat, and is rated high in crash tests (which provides piece of mind). Once I upgraded my tires, the car handles well in snow and other adverse conditions. I like my Sirus radio system. The car has experienced intermittent electrical problems over the years (back up light, ignition system). This has been really frustrating. The car has blind spots which makes it time consuming to switch lanes. (The newer models come with blind spot detectors and back up cameras. This equipment would be a welcome addition to this model! I get about 24 miles to the gallon in city traffic.)

Recalls after recalls

I bought the 2011 Hyundai Sonata from a private party and within 2-3 weeks of driving, the engine died while the car was being driven on the road. The previous owner had kept the vehicle in a very good condition. Aside from the high mileage from being driven out of state during the winter, there were no odd noises during the test drive prior to buying. After the engine died, I did some research on the vehicle online and found that the 2011 Sonata had a lot of recalls and complaints from owners about engine problems amongst other things. It's listed as the 3rd worst vehicle on carcomplaints.com. Thankfully the extended warranty on the engine Hyundai had put out helped cover my vehicle. Although the vehicle looks amazing cosmetically and is comfortable to sit in, I still feel like something will go wrong while driving. I don't know if the other Hyundai models have the same problems but as for the 2011 Sonata, I wouldn't recommend this vehicle.

Sonata is average

My Sonata has had so many recalls and it runs so loudly. I respect that the recalls are called to prevent safety issues. However, my Sonata just hit 100,000 miles and it runs loudly. There’s a defect in the paint because it’s chipping like crazy. I love the style of the car and I love the way the music sounds, I love the trunk space, and I love the safety features such as all airbags.

Consumer Reports got it DEAD WRONG!!

Bought new Thanksgiving 2010, great salesman Woody, obviously doing something right still there today! Service department friendly & knowledgeable bonus being back to washing cars post El Nino! Perplexed as to low ratings by CR when with regular recommended maintenance my Sonata has had NO issues whatsoever? So reliable seriously considering the Genesis 90 which should be renamed the ? due to excellent reviews by those in the know!

Top-notch sporty performance, durable engine and drive train, low-maintenance, and a good value.

The Hyundai Sonata was priced right for my budget when I purchased it in 2011. I had the chance to test drive it, and was very impressed with the power of the engine, the ease of operation, and the comfort. I have driven the car heavily for the last six years, and its performance has always exceeded my expectations for power, pickup, safety, and easy of navigation. If i were to point out a negative, it would be that all the money went into the performance of the vehicle. The upholstery and carpeting was lower in terms of quality, comfort,and durability. It's an adequately comfortable car, but the interior amenities are far lower than what I have seen in the competitors' vehicles in the category. None of these deficiencies were apparent during the test drive. Rather, I noticed the lower quality slowly over time, and I wish I had noticed these things during the test drive. On the whole, I'm very happy with the value I got for my hard earned money spent on this vehicle, especially in terms of the drive train, safety, and performance. But the lower value in the furnishings, upholstery, amenities, sound system, and comfort of the interior's design have been disappointing.

Reliable 2011 Sonata

My wife really liked her Sonata. When we finally decided it was time to update our vehicles last year, she got a 2017 Sonata and I inherited her 2011 Sonata. It's a great car and still getting great gas mileage (e.g. 27 - 30 mpg) under our normal driving conditions. I hope to keep it for a number of years to come.
