Good Car Until It's Not

2015 Hyundai Sonata SE 4dr Sedan (2.4L 4cyl 6A)

This was a car that was in the shop a lot at first getting warranty work done and after three years of ownership it seemed to get better. We were aware of the GDI carbon build up problem on the valves and took preventative measures as well as having to add a quart of oil every three to four fill ups. Finally, on a road trip my wife was taking, the car without warning suddenly flashed the check engine light and went dead. After towing it 100+ miles to our local garage, it was diagnosed as having a 1632 code that meant it needed a new engine and/or electrical engine harness. The mechanic priced out both options and frankly told us to dump the car. We did just that, towed it to the dealership we were purchasing a Camry from and received $500 for our trade. This car was lightly driven and had only 78,000 miles on it. It was an expensive lesson on Hyundai quality, but one that will not be forgotten.

I got this car last week. Let me give you guys some feedbacks. Overall the car drives quite well for a 4-cylinder turbo. Noise level of engine and drive is somewhat in the mid range. My previous car was a 2012 Genesis and this 2015 Sonata is not better but doable. Cons: The car doors were not aligning correctly. Doors were a bit off from the quarter panels and rear passengers door. I was not able to open driver's side passenger the door. I have to pull the handle twice in order to open the door. Dealership had to take my car in for a day to fix these issues. I got the car on Friday and return to dealership for repairs on Monday, go figure.

I love my Sonata, the quality and comfort, good in miles, lots of space for passengers and the trunk. And the insured is cheaper than the other cars (camry, accord). This is my second sonata and I will not change.

It's the best car I ever had, and I've had over 30 through my life.
