I love my car but I’m upset with service.

I love it. I love the new grille in front and the sportiness and it’s fast! Everyone compliments it. I would recommend this car and even the dealership except for only one reason.

Biggest mistake ever! Bad investment

The cae was good for the first year only. Check engine light stay flashing. Car is in the shop every other week. Technicians dont know what the issue is. And roadside service was called at least 20 times because car wouldn't start!!!

Ideal for our needs

This car has great performance, plenty of leg room, good head & back support, is quiet running, great visibility, and is handsome in appearance. We love the backup mirror and warning lights that show up when vehicle is approaching and warning sound when person or vehicle is behind us.

Stylish and a great ride

This car has been a great vehicle for us. Spacious and rides well. The ignition switch needed replacing but other than that the first 20,000 miles have been smooth. I love to drive this car.

The perfect car for a commute

This car is very spacious with plenty of room for the driver and the passengers in the back. Didn't think I was gonna use the apple/car play as much, but it has been perfect as I use the GPS, music, and phone call apps. The apple/car play is very convenient as you don't have to hold your phone to your ear when making a phone call.

Most reliable car I've ever owned.

My car has a huge body and trunk. I love that I see how many miles I have left in the tank. She's a real beauty.

Second new Sonata I have purchased

This car is fun to drive. I am a petite lady and the power front seats are a great benefit. Love driving this car and the new features are great.

Lots in room inside, has many features, back up camera blind spot recognition, android link for navigation. You get a lot of car for the money.
