I GOT THE LEMON!

2013 - Purchased a new Eqqus; also purchased the extended warranty. The first incidence - rear-ended which put my car in a body shop for more than two mos, waiting for one screw from Hyundai. 2018 - (approx 90,000 mi), the transmission failed (Hyundai USA was gracious enough to replace as a humanitarian courtesy) 2018 - rear suspension collapsed - warranty expired; paid out of pocket 2019 - STRUTS failed - paid out of pocket 2020 - STEERING failed - paid out of pocket 2020 - ALL FOUR bushings failed simultaneously - paid out of pocket 2020 - REPLACED front windshield (paid out of pocket - window cost more than deductible) What next? My dilemma is,"do I keep the car and wait for the engine to blow up, or purchase another car, which certainly will not be another Hyundai product. Wish me luck. I will explore, "The Lemon Law," in California. This car was good then went horribly bad. (I think I've been in this website earlier detailing car issue)

Amazing

I love my ride. It has everything I need and I can ever hear my passengers when then speak from the back seat. It handles great in the rain and on most any road you do not feel the bumps or hear road noise. This is the third one me and my grandfather have bought along with four of the genesis. Only downfall is that dealerships near me have no clue how to work on them. The navigation updates should be free to access and buy rather than a dealership like superior hyundai whom is clueless how to work on the vehicle let alone know how to update the system. Luckily we have found us an amazing mechanic, who can do anything when it comes to working on my equus and others we have bought to resale. The 2013 is by far the best we have spent 0.00 dollars in fixing anything major, all has been basic maintenance oil changes, air filter etc. I highly recommend 2012 and 2013 equus years and do not recommend the 2011 the air ride systems on that year is awful along with all the other issues that the dealer could not fix. I love that any place I go, I do not see my same car in the parking spots. I always get compliments and asked what kind of car it is. Once i open the door they are always amazed. Truly a beautiful ride! I absolutely love mine!

Bought Used 2013

Car was 3 years old with 25,000 miles. I went from a Lincoln Town Car and, at first, was a little disappointed in the Equus. The Lincoln had less tire noise and quieter at high speeds. Seating comfort and roominess are about equal.But after almost a year of driving the Equus, I find the ease of handling superior to the Town Car and when I punch the gas to the V8 to get on a crowded Calif. fwy., the Equus has it all over the Town Car. After 10,000 miles of driving, performance and ease of handling has convinced me to buy another Hyundai luxury car.

Its Not A Lexus But It Doesn't Charge to Be One

Only complaints I ever really had about this vehicle are: (1) Its got to be one of the most worthless navigation systems I have ever seen I used a $ 115.00 Garmin most of the time in my otherwise luxury sedan and (2) gas mileage is horrendous as compared to the competitors. Ultimately I ditched the vehicle for the two reasons above. I am a realtor and I need a good navigation system and gas mileage that beats what this car offers. I opted for a Land Rover HSE. I figured if I was going to get poor gas mileage I would at least get a vehicle that is fun to drive. A limousine type vehicle will never be a fun drive.
