Will be buying another one in the near future.

I have owned my hybrid since 2012 and have only had minor problems and will definitely be buying another one. The leather seats and the heated seats are a good feature in the vehicle. The handling of the car is impressive. Thx Hyundai!

Dependable car!

A very dependable car! It is classy looking! The passenger seat of the car is too low and cannot be adjustable! The Signal control does not go off always when you make the turn. Cannot depend on it going off.

Great mpg and warranty..

I have Hyundai 2012 Sonata 2.0 Turbo. Front passenger seat kinda low . Has ready have 91 thousand mileage. Hyundai is up-to-date with all reminder for recall issues. . Never had major problems but light bulbs I've noticed both front and back did last as ive expected. Had several changes already. But leak in oil pan at 91k miles warranty covered the cost for repair. Great car , comfortable and good fuel economy..

Second Sonata with no regrets!

Love my second Sonata just as much as my first one! Service is always great and warranty is awesome!! It’s comfortable, looks great and never an issue that wasn’t corrected the first time. Even was reimbursed for a minor repair when a recall came out on a repair!! Unbelievable!!!!

Awesome car

I really enjoy driving my Sonata. It drives well and it very reliable. I like the speed and overall handling of the vehicle. The only improvement I would suggest would be to incorporate moonroofs to Sonata models.

Love my Sonata

I love my car! I rides smoothly, very comfortable, even on long trips, and I get comments from people all the time about how stylish it is. I plan on replacing the dar in another year or two and will be purchasing another Sonata.

Excellence in motion

My Sonata is the best car I have ever owned. It is dependable, reliable, durable, efficient on gas. I am 67 yrs old and bought my first car when I was 15 and have owned many different kinds, domestic and foreign and the Hyundai Sonata has out performed every one. I traded a Buick LaCrosse in on the Sonata and the Buick never performed close to as good as the Sonata.

Excellence

My sonata was a great value for the money. Bells and whistles can be enjoyed without the high price of other vehicles. I now have my car paid off and have 121,000 miles on it. I have followed service recommendations and have had absolutely no other service than routine maintenance. It has exceeded my expectations. I'm looking forward to many more miles on this Sonata!

Love it

From the first time I saw my car, and everyday I drive my Sonata, I absolutely love it. This is not the first Hyundai I have owned, and it won't be the last. The performance and the design are stunning. I have had numerous friends comment, that my money was well spent. Indeed it was. Thank you Hyundai. Keep up the good work.

Love my Hyaundai Sonata

My car is great on gas. Has not let me down. Have a 21015 Sonanta and I have only had maintenance work done on my car. Smooth driving car. I’m a traveling nurse so my car has been all over the country! I love my blue lighting as I call her! Would not trade her for the world!

Great customer service

Hyundai has proven over and over again that it stands by it's products. I had two experiences with a recall item. They quickly acted on remedying the problem in a professional and courteous manner. They even took the extra step of washing my car. Great service!

100% Satisfaction.

Excellent job and I have satisfied 100% and Customer Satisfaction is more important in the business. That I found with “Samson” . The old man almost 60 plus took more time and checked very patiently and done very good job. I really appreciate your services.

Very Happy

I really like my Sonata. Do regular maintenance and no problems at 108,000 miles. Also liked Fairfax Hyundai free tires for life, I’m on my second set. Good gas mileage and I’m in a lot of stop snd ho traffic.

1st time with Sonata

I believe this vehicle is durable. Maintenance is great and reasonable. If you take care of this car it will take care of you because it is durable. It is not the kind of car that is fix or repair daily.

Very nice car but still so underpowered.

I used to have a 2008 V6 Sonata on which I put nearly 200k miles. I was SO disappointed in 2012 that the best they could offer in this style was the 2.0T but I decided to try it. Very regularly I get offers to buy back my car and get me into a new Sonata My answer is always the same... Put a V6 engine in it and I would buy tomorrow!!

Hyundai Sonata 2012

I purchased my 2012 Hyundai Sonata new. It drove beautifully for about 3 1/2 years. Then my engine had a recall. It took over a year to convince Hyundai that the engine needed to be replaced. After my engine died, Hyundai replaced the engine. The 2012 Sonata has had; an engine recall, ball bearing rod recall, steering column recall, two seatbelt recalls, and the airbag recall. The steering wheel material peeled off as well. I purchased the 2012 Sonata because it is a beautiful looking car and it was highly rated by consumer reports. Now, I am in a position where I have an automobile that I do not want, but I cannot afford to purchase another vehicle and this one is not really a good bet for a trade in. The car has cost me more money and aggravation than any Toyota or Honda I've ever driven.

Sonata Hyb

Great car no problems. Car is comfortable. Fun to drive. Electric motor is fast, pulls hard. Gauges are easy to read. Ride is smooth. Fuel mileage is great. Stops on a dime. Cargo space is great. Seating space is very good. I'm very happy with this car.

Great Car

I love my Hyundai Sonata! I would recommend this vehicle to anyone looking for an economical but sporty sedan. This vehicle is good on gas and the 2.4 L engine has a lot of get up and go. Acceleration is powerful! I've owned my Sonata for 2 years and have had nothing but routine maintenance performed on it. The interior is comfortable; however, there is little head room in the rear for my 6'4" son. He just slouches a bit. Other than that, it's a very comfortable and roomy ride. Great job, Hyundai. Keep up the good work. I would actually like to purchase another Hyundai when this one is paid off. I'm thinking of looking into the Santa Fe.
