Owned it ten years and 80,000 miles. Driver's lumbar support adjustment broke four times, was repaired on warranty three times. Gave up after that, didn't need it anyway. Touchy accelerator pedal. Driver's seat bolster wore out after eight years and had to be repaired by a vinyl repair guy. It was fine after that. Gas filler door release button became intermittent after eight years. Sometimes had to use the release in the trunk, OTHER THAN THOSE really minor flaws the car was one of the best I ever owned. Went through the original tires and would have had to replace the second set within another 4,000 miles. Never had to replace any brake pads!

For the price I paid, my Sonata has been great. Mileage is awesome, roomy, comfortable car. Got it at 40k miles, now at 120k miles, I think it has a lot more in it. BUT within a 3 month period my front passenger door handle and my driver side read door handle both snapped (Cleveland winter, probably 20 degrees F outside). Went to a Hyundai dealer and they said they wouldn't cover it and it would cost me $500 a door to fix so I told them to go kick rocks. Left the broken handles alone for almost two years (absolutely a safety hazard). Then in the summer a couple years later my head console which has my interior lights, sunroof control and blue tooth control FELL OFF the ceiling and hit me in the head. Whilst driving....The console was hanging there by the electrical cords. Took this to a local shop and asked them how much to fix both door handles and the center console (all of which needed to be completely replaced). Under $700. Hyundai dealership wanted $500 per door handle. Last thing is my transmission kind of jumps when the car downshifts as I slow down to an eventual stop. Never had an actual mechanical issue with the engine or transmission so I live with it. Long story short; comfortable, good mileage car and a good value. There's a couple shortcomings on the quality/craftsmanship and don't expect Hyundai to help you out if something breaks. I've read a lot of reviews and that seems to be the recurring theme.

I have had this car for over two months and have taken two substantial trips with it, in addition to daily city driving. Plusses: fabulous pick- up; good performance; decent comfort; roomy; fairly smooth ride (especially when fully loaded with passengers); GREAT highway mileage -- my record so far: 38.4 mpg (single occupant, A/C, minimal luggage, flat topography, cruise control, 65-68 mph); Minuses: can't seem to fill tank up without the pump auto-shutting off at about 2/3 full; mysterious fresh petroleum odor from air-vents, especially when idling; confusing/ambiguous/redundant- looking A/C temp/fan controls; auto headlights don't seem to activate easily enough (e.g., when rainy, cloudy)
What a surprise

You think you would be hesitant with a name like Hyundai. Don't be fooled. After you take a test drive your going to love this car. I just purchased my Sonata Limited and already I know I made the right choice. After my niece saw my car the next day she visited the Hyundai dealer. You get the feeling of a solid built car with all the goodies. Thanks Hyundai for introducing me to a well built car. I'll follow up with another review after my first 500 miles
