Dealership sold me a car with a bad radiator leak

I purchased the car with cash and did not appreciate problems right away. I would not make a purchase from this lot again. Bad car lot!

Good and reliable

I've only had two issues with this car. The ECM was messed up (possibly due to someone crossing jumper cables) which caused the anti-theft to trip. This led to the car randomly nor starting. They do develop a rattle in the rear end after a while because the Watts Link or the attached bar goes bad. It's common with them, and is a cheap and easy fix. The interior is strange to get used to with the power window controls mounted in the center of the dash and the back of the center console.

Great car. Great dealer!

This car replaces a Chrysler Town and Country... it is smaller-(and that's GOOD), sportier-(very GOOD), gets ptbetter gas mileage, and is WAY MORE FUN TO DRIVE!!

New to us but is 200 i.n good shape. It has 143K

It is in apparently good shape and the Hyundai dealer finally got it passed the State inspection. I have discovered three recalls and will attempt to have them corrected. The auto appears to have been well cared for and looks new. We are happy with the vehicle and hope to have 2 or 3 years of trouble free service.

Worst car I have ever owned

This car has been nothing but problems since I purchased it. Every repair id's very expensive due to having to take everything apart to get to the engine. Even to change a light bulb you must take of a wheel and go through the quarter panel. Poorly designed and not reliable.
