Hyundai Sonata for Sale

Edmunds' Expert Review

by the Edmunds Experts

Pros

Excellent warranty, pleasant highway ride, lots of bang for your family-sedan buck.

Cons

Noisy four-cylinder engine, some cheap interior bits.

What’s new

There are no significant changes for 2004.

Edmunds says

It may not have the cachet of more mainstream midsize sedans, but with a long warranty, numerous standard features and a solid performance, the Sonata is a worthwhile alternative.

My 2004 sonataa

Leanna norris, 12/24/2015

2004 Hyundai Sonata V6 4dr Sedan (2.7L 6cyl 4A)

I bought my 2004 sonata used for only 4500! It now has 212,000 miles on it and runs awesome and has never left me stranded. The only thing ive had to do to it is a tune up, oil changes, changing of head lights and tail lights. I had to buy new tires after 2 years and a starter for it but thats it. It may sound like a lot but it was just regular maintenance that it needed. Never had any …

The best car if you take Care of it

2004 Hyundai Sonata 4dr Sedan (2.4L 4cyl 4A)

My hyundai belonged to my dad before he gave it to me. He bought it new and it has never had any major issues. Just did regular maintenance. The only thing I don't like is the headlights don't seem To be very bright! But other than that I love the car and it's always been really reliable. Just watch out for the timing belt, because of the interference engine. Don't replace it late. …

Best Car I've Ever Owned

2004 Hyundai Sonata 4dr Sedan (2.4L 4cyl 4A)

I bought my Sonata with 17,000 miles on it. It now has 204,000 miles and it's still going strong. It has never once left me stranded, and I've only had to do the usual car maintenance: brakes, tires, tune up, etc. I have been meticulous about oil changes every 3,000 miles. The interior is still in great shape, and it continues to be a comfortable ride, still. Truly the best car I've ever …

2004 Hyundai Sonata V6 4dr Sedan (2.7L 6cyl 4A)

Got this vehicle from my mother 4 years ago. Has been very reliable with no major repairs required to this point. Comfort of seats is fair and interior design on base model is bland but it gets the job done.
