I was reading some of the reviews and noticed same problems. Anyway our XG350 gave us a couple of problems. First one was the Alternator, coolant hose was bad, radio keeps shutting off on its own, moon roof doesn't work, tiptronic isn't good at all shifts way to late, transmission is starting to go bad, car feels like it has no control (handling), shocks starting to make noise but its sounds like it might be the bushings not the shocks. Hope it is shocks and not bushings by the way my mom drives this car and it has max 20,000 miles and its an 02. Other than that the car is pretty fast for a Hyundai. But I wouldn't recommend this car to anyone. It doesn't look nice and quality isn't that great.

I really want to like this car...unfortunately, it's not mutual. Since Mar-02, this car has been in the service dept. for 39 days (excluding Sundays) with electrical problems. While this is a clear Lemon Law case, Hyundai is fighting me.
Lot of Car, lo money - Lo Quality

Bought used at 40k mi. Engine lunched at 115k. If you buy or own, change the darn timing belt @ 70k. Belt is made of pressed fiber of some sort. The Korean v6, unlike American v6, is an interference engine - meaning if the timing belt goes, the pistons and valve beat the engine to death - unlike a non-interference engine. We run Mobil one synthetic from day one. We have two American cars - both v6 - one at 180k the other at 225k. Never changed the timing belt. Both run. The xg350 had a rattle in the driver side trunk. It cruised smoothly and easy on long trips but about as much fun to drive as an Abrams tank. Do not recommend and will never buy another Hyundai. Your mileage may vary
I fell in Love!!!

Hubby decided he wanted Grand Am. I drove Grand Am and decided ok since this was supposed to be his car. Driving home I went by Hyundai dealership and saw XG350 and had to stop! Drove car and called Hubby and told him I had totlly fell in love! I cannot find a feature I don't like about this car! And when I first saw the car I thought that car looks like a Jag! I love the memory seat , mirror adustments since I am always griping about Hubby re-adjusting mirrors, and he complains about me pulling seat up to far. The mirrors atomaticallly lowering when in reverse takes some getting use to but is a nice feature for visabilaty This is truely a excellent car at a great price!
Fun car to own and drive

The first time my wife drove the new car, someone stopped her and asked about her new "Mercedes". When my son and daughter-in-law saw it, they thought it was a Porsche. We bought this car because it offers the luxury we want at a moderate price, plus a great warrenty. I love the Shiftronic transmission, which is close to straight drive, while wifey prefers the auto. The 3.5 has enough "pep" with the 5 speed to climb hills and pass easily. We have only had it a week, but are really enjoying it.
