Reduced rating because of engine defect Extremely comfortable front seats. Slight road tire noise over rough pavement. Has actually improved with time. Pickup good but slight hesitation and vibration on transmission shifting about 40-to 50 mph. Has also improved,less noticeable. Dealership says it is normal but it still is somewhat annoying. Did not experience on other car makes Car looks great . Light grey interior looks luxurious as well as exterior. Looks like a car twice the price. Android auto uses only Google maps No built in navigation. price paid was 17600 (excluding sales tax and registration fees) plus 419 doc fees Above price includes $3000 rebate. Overall great car But downgraded due to an inherent defect in base engine. Poorly manufactured connecting rod bearings may fail prematurely. Hyundai has offered a lifetime warranty but does not soothe my concerns of taking a long trip and having an engine fail.They added software to car computer to monitor premature engine knock which would slow car down and warn driver. Does not fix the problem

Its been ok until it failed

Ive always liked hyundai since it has a great warranty. I got a 2018 sonata about 8 months ago it now has a little over 13k miles. The biggest issue here its that it failed on me apparently there is a recall for a nock sensor that may damage the engine and I was one of the lucky ones. Car looses poweer out of nowhere and you are forces to drive at about 50mph. I had to tow the car 90 miles since I didnt wanna cause any more damage to it, dealer said they will fix it but now it leaves me wondering how realiable this car would be in the future I planned on owning it for at least 8 years. I may have to trade it in sooner than I thought. This was a major dissapoinment hopefully they can get it together.

This Sonata is a great value, rides nice and looks very good. My only con is that the wind noise is loader than any of my previous sonatas.

So far, with a little over 3K miles, this is the best car I ever bought. Great price for a lot of car.
