We bought this car used with 19000 miles on it. It’s my wife’s car and she loves it, plenty of power( 2013 was the only year with 200 ponies and a 6 speed select shift transmission standard ) and the gas mileage is mid 30s to 40 even if you drive it with a light foot and keep it under 80! It’s a 2013 limited in shimmering white pearl coat with black leather and a moon roof and is a stunning car. We’ve had the car for 4 years( purchased 10- 14- 2014 ) and have a little over 35000 miles on it and it drives like new. It sits a lot because wife has a work at home job and doesn’t drive it much but even after sitting a month or so in a climate controlled garage it starts right up and runs great. It has many great features, heated front and rear seats and dual climate control, auto dim rear view mirror, front and rear heat- a/c and plenty of room inside. The cons: if your very tall ( 6ft 1 inch ) it’s a little difficult to get in and out of car and the dealers service sucks, but that’s not the cars fault. We are going to have to sell it as we need a heavy truck to pull our airstream RV and I’m having reservations about selling a great car. The only thing I recommend is using amsoil full synthetic motor oil and change auto transmission fluid and replace with amsoil ATF at 30,000 miles as fluid was brown ( Hyundai does not recommend changing fluid but that’s a personal call ) but transmission was shifting fine. I don’t know about the other folks getting bad mileage but mine is great and this car will haul butt if you stand on the accelerator pedal. If you decide to buy one used, get it from a private owner, not a dealer and have it checked out, also make sure it has service history for oil changes and maintenance records. These are great cars and not everyone takes expert care of their cars, that’s why there are so many different opinions about these Hyundai’s.

Let me start at the beginning, On June 11,2018 I was driving and my car stalled. So I waited 4 hours before getting roadside assistance. I eventually had my car towed to Ourisman Hyundai in Bowie, MD where I purchased it. In the meantime I did some research to see if my car had any recalls, well it did. On Tuesday June 12, 2018 I did end up receiving a call from a young lady named Shavon at Ourisman Hyundai she wanted to know why it was towed there and wanted to know what was wrong with my car. So I told her that it stalled and would not cut on, I also explained to her that I never received any letters regarding recalls on my car. She called me later on that day and told me that it was my engine and there was a recall on the engine. Ok the reason why I am really sending this email is because of lack of concern and lack of communication, I was inconvenienced I was out of a vehicle for a whole week and I do not work close to where I live. I did ask about getting a loaner in the meantime, Shavon told me that the did not have an loaners available and they would arrange for me to get a rent from Enterprise, the cost was $37.00 a day they would cover the $30.00 and I would just have to pay the $7.00 a day. I understand that everything has to be process but I am still making payments on my vehicle plus car insurance on a my car that is not in my possession right now. After a whole week of having to call them to find out what was going on with my car, I received a call on Monday stating that they had finally made arrangements to pick up a rental at Enterprise 16300 Heritage Blvd in Bowie, MD. I had to get it transferred to a closer Enterprise because it was too far, so they end up transferring it to Enterprise in Glen Burnie, MD. So I ended up picking up the vehicle, so yesterday after having to call to see what was going on with my car Shavon calls me after the fact, "Ms. Williams, I have good news your engine is here", I said I called and I was told that already. I went further and stated to her that I am really enjoying my rental and I might switch car companies altogether. She said what did you get, I told her that Enterprise gave me a Nissan Altima. Ourisman Hyundai in Bowie should communicate better with the customers or provide loaners from the lot, out of all the vehicle that they have that are not selling, it is not like I am trying to keep it. I already am making high car payments on a vehicle that has issues. This is not how to do business and I do not treat my family, my patients anyway the way I have been treated or inconvenienced. I am in the process of contacting my lawyer.

Good for about 5 years or so. Mine had and still has a lot of recalls. Don’t think I would do a Hyundai again.
Excellent
