Problems with tires and break

I have bought this car just over one year ago, we do live in cold climate ( Ontario), I am not sure if this car was built for this climate, as the car has done only 25000 KM, the dealership tells me I need new sets of tires and my break are rusted, I was shocked to hear I have to spend over $1400 for a car that is one year old and Hyundai Canada refused to cover the cost, they said to me the tires are not part of the car and I have to go to the tire manufacturer , and when I did approached them, they refused to pay for the tires, this is a car that is been used for inner city and was kept indoor at all times, and I am 56 years old, so I was not racing with

The car is reliable as long as you perform regular maintenance. It was made to have miles put on it.

Replaced engine

My engine had to be replaced at 59,000 miles! I regular oil changes and other maintenance. Hyundai eventually extended the warranty on the engines of this and other models, because so many people had to have them replaced. I have a friend whose Veloster needed the engine replaced three times! I also had issues with the steering gear coupler, fuel pump and the clockspring. Never buying a Hyundai again.

I had a Mercedes s430 that was costing me thousands of dollars worth of repairs, stay away from those airmatic suspension models. I bought a 2013 elantra and I'm glad I did! Beautiful little car with a luxurious interior, great road handling, great gas mileage, no costly repairs, no problems whatsoever. Highly recommend this wonderful little car!

I bought a 2013 Elantra with 22k miles on it and it seemed pretty good. However, around 53K it developed a loud ticking noise from the engine and the car was undrivable. I later learned that it was a engine design problem for elantras which revealed itself as "tick of death" or "piston slap" between 50 and 100k. Since I was second owner, Huyndai would not honor the 100k engine warranty. The only fix is an engine replacement costing $7-9k or the car is worthless.

Solid Daily Vehicle

I bought this car as a daily commuter at the end of 2019 just before Covid hit. I drove it daily for 5 years before replacing it about a month ago. It was a solid, reliable family car. I had to spend money on it twice other than the usual maintenance items like brakes, tires, oil changes etc. Once was some rear suspension work and the other wax some engine electrical work. All in all it was a good car. Because of work from home/Covid I only put about 50k miles on it in 5 years. I own red it from about 80k miles to 130k. Nothing special, kind of boring to drive but a good solid car in my personal experience.

Sadly with the excessive rise in used car prices I was unable to replace my car with a similar model but the Arlanta seems ok. It gets good gas mileage.the detailing could have been better. I am still trying to figure out how some features work. But overall I am satisfied.The manager at the dealership was very nice.
