Used 2015 Hyundai Equus Signature 4dr Sedan (5.0L 8cyl 8A) Consumer Reviews
Fantastic value and very reliable...
I bought a 2015 Hyundai Equus with about 24,000 miles on it in December 2018. Car was like new in almost every way. Had one problem with the car and that was a head rest on the passenger side that just violently popped forward one day while I was at a light. Warranty covered replacement 100%. Car handles really well. Very roomy front and back seat, great for everyday driving and long trips in that regard. It turns a lot of heads because the badge on the front and back is not the usual Hyundai loan. It looks and feels like a Lexus 460LS. Has all the bells and whistles that a flagship sedan should have, including terrific sound system, navigation, rear sun shade, backseat radio / A/C controls, comfort setting (rear passenger seat turns into a recliner and front passenger seat moves forward so there is more room...outstanding feature on long road trips. Prior to this car I had a BMW 750Li, also a flagship but had constant problems. This is Hyundai reliability with Lexus / BMW styling. Not as sexy as the Lexus 460 or BMW 750 but close enough considering the upfront savings for purchase and nearly non-existent maintenance issues. One last thing: This car hasn't been made since 2015 (I believe) and unfamiliarity with the general public means these cars can be had with low mileage at great prices. The one I bought had about $5,000 in equity built in to the purchase price. They are rarer so you may have to travel to find one. If you're thinking about buying one, hurry because every day the supply of low mileage 2015 (or earlier) shrinks.

i loved this car until it almost killed me
i bought this car new and loved it for the first three years; then, one day i made a u-turn and the whole car shut down; when the dealer came to pick it up, the same thing happened to the driver on a u-turn; the dealer replaced the onboard computer; three months later the same thing happened on a u-turn, on a dark night, on a busy street and i, my wife and two other passengers almost got killed on a busy street; the dealer, working with the geniuses at the manufacturer concluded that i had a bad battery cable; without going into a lot of detail, this makes absolutely no sense at all; i contacted the manufacturer and their "customer service" representative told me that they would do nothing to get me out of this death machine because the 2 year window on florida's lemon law had expired. when i asked to speak with somebody higher up the rep told me that he was the highest ranking customer service person in hyundai and hung up on me!!! I sold this car back to the dealer in order that i not risk my life driving it. if you are in the market to buy a used equus, be sure not to buy VIN KMHGH4JH9FU093410 unless you are willing to risk your life

2015 Signature Purchased in 2019
I purchased this car 4 yrs old with 28k miles. This car drives like a dream. It feels like a brand new car. I love the drive modes and suspension. At this price and value, why would you buy a used more expensive BMW 7 series, Audi A8, Lexus Ls, or MB S Class? I saved a ton of money and purchased a RELIABLE luxury sedan. Great job Hyundai!

2015 Equuis Disaster
Bought brand new. 1000 miles drivers window goes down and will not come back up. No loaner no luxury service total lies. Then the car shuts off at 75 MPH!! Almost got killed! does this 5 times and dealer says they cannot find the problem?? Then one day I come out and car is completely dead. can't even open the door locks, no interior lights have to have it towed to dealer. Dealer tells me it needs a new battery? 32K miles? no warnings at all?? Just one day it is completely dead? Need a car I can depend on. Got rid of it that day..Never again. Electrical issues since I bought this car. Apparently the G90 is suffering the same issues.

Just bought a 2015 Equus with 6700 (not a typo)
Fantastic car, mine is like new, from the fantastic carpet up to the leather dash, what a fantastic value. Paid less than 1/2 for a car that cost mid 60's new and I love everything about it. Rides great, is as powerful as a muscle car. Great value..
