Not reliable car

I don?t recommend this car if you are concerned about spending a lot of money on break pads, routers, and electrical problems. At 10,000 miles I had to take it almost every week to the dealership to check on my breaks because of the grinding noise. Most of all the times until 39,000 I was told I need need new breaks and routers. All have been changed. I am still having the same problem after a week from dealing with break grinding. I took the car several times to check out what?s the problem no one has said anything about the break. The breaks been changed again, and again, and again and I am still having the same problem. Now, I am dealing with battery issues and cranking noise whenever the car is parked for several hours. I don?t know if that is something normal for this car. I changed the battery three times. The battery drained every year and steering problem also. What?s going on I?m spending so much money to maintain this car.

Nice ride for the money

This car met all my needs and requirements. It was clean, gets good gas mileage, dependable, easy to drive, sporty, had low miles. I would buy another car from Miracle Mart in Whitehall.

Love This Car... Sporty and Sleek..

It has great control, smooth ride, quiet. The seats support your back, great for long rides. Plenty of room, Plenty of storage and drink holders.

The body Style is exciting and fun... This car was made for ME!

Nice compact car

This car gets incredible gas mileage with or without available eco drive engaged. However it's not a zippy car so if you have a lead foot or like to have more pick up, you may be a bit disappointed. Spacious and comfy seats, sleek design. The trunk is huge and the rear sets fold down to allow for more storage needs/space. Overall I love this car.

Great features.

Bought with 42k miles on it, but couldn't really tell it was a used car. Quiet and comfortable, great media options and lots of features. Hyundai vehicles are a solid value.

It speaks for itself!

The vehicle that was test driven performed wonderfully while on the road. The color was one of my most favorite and it had a sunroof!

Better than we expected

Comfortable and very easy to drive. A compact but holds the road well. Expected mpg to be a bit better, but not complaining. Plenty of passenger and trunk space.
