Used 2012 Hyundai Sonata Consumer Reviews
Biggest Lemon
My 2012 Hyundai Sonata Limited 2.0t on the outside/inside appear to look nice and comparable to a high end luxury vehicle. Mechanically it is garbage! Owning this car for 3years 90,000 I had to the replace turbo sensor, fuel pump, 2 batteries, and run into multiple situations where the car would not start. Hyundai corporate and dealerships have been useless and do not stand by their products. This is my second and last Hyundai buying, next time I'll put the money towards a Toyota, a company who stands by their products and who has proven reliability.

Great Car definitely the best in it's class right now
I did a lot of research before choosing this car. This I believe is the best in it's class right now. i am sure other manufacturers will catch up in the fall but for now Sonata is on top. I got a Limited with Navigation. I have owned the car for a month and haven't had anything I don't like. The limited packs a lot of features that you see in luxury brands. I cannot think of any feature
Don't buy this car.
I owned 2012 Sonata Limited and 7500 mileage. You will get feeling so bad and get tired because of wandering while drive. (especially on Highway) The poor steering won't be centered as much as 1/2 inches.(left and right) Dealer and Customer center seemed like they have no solution about this so far. I'd like you to go with Honda accord. I'm waiting for my payoff day.
Didn't purchase. Leased.

Excellent Value for the Price
We had a 2004 Sonata and the only problem I had with it was a battery during the 7 years that we owned it. Naturally when the 2011 was introduced we went to check it out and were impressed. I took my wife's advice and purchased all of the options which included the navigation package. The 4-cylinder engine on this car accelerates much better than the 6-cylinder Sonata we had before. The keyless ignition is great. The ability to open the doors without a key is very convenient so that you don't have to go searching for keys in your pockets or purse. I have read a very few negative customer reviews on the Sonata but overall most people are pleased with this car. It performs well overall.
