  • Review number 2, found a problem. - 2011 Hyundai Sonata

    I love everything about the car except the disply controls on the dashboard. My recommendation, dont attempt to do anything except change radio stations while you are driving. The controls are much too confusing and hard to use for my taste.

  • How do they do it? - 2011 Hyundai Sonata
    By -

    I love cars, drive a 2009 Dodge Charger R/T, got the Sonata because go to Vegas often wanted the gas mileage. You cant go wrong, driving the Sonata more around town than the Dodge, before I bought drove the Accord (too much road noise), Altima (hate the CVT), Camry (boring), and none had the horse power of the Sonatas 4 cylinder, or gas mileage. Got the base GLS for under 20K, with blue tooth, and XM, seriously how do they do it, 60,000 bumper to bumper, and 100,000 engine, and trans incredible, never thought I would own a Hyundai, may get the turbo when it comes out, in the convertible, bye bye Dodge.

    I bought the vehicle knowing it was a good vehicle because of the hyundai brand. I never thought it was going to be a smooth driving as it is. The ride is amazing it turns heads when i drive by, and i love all the features, well worth the money!!!

  • Test Drove and Loved! - 2011 Hyundai Sonata
    By -

    I went and test drove this car today. Immediately when I sat in it, it was incredibly comfortable. Im 64" and there is more than enough room and the seats are perfect. It took no time at all for me to find a comfortable driving position unlike most other cars Ive driven or drive where it takes several times of driving to get comfortable. The acceleration with the 2.0 Turbo is fantastic, I barely tapped the gas and I was at 80. It rode so well down the road. The car also has a strong and solid feel. Now since Ive only test drove it and dont own one YET Im not sure how reliability is. Im sure its fine since all the other reviews havent said anything too bad, but only time will tell.

  • Fog Horn Blues - 2011 Hyundai Sonata
    By -

    Bought my Sonata Limited 2.4 Turbo new in 2011. Initial pulling to the left was remedied by local alignment. With 36K on the odometer I noticed a foghorn-like sound emitting from under the hood whenever coming to a stop, and when the outside temperature was high. Initially, I suspected the brake system but then happened to come to a full stop, shift into neutral, and increase rpms. Voila!!! The turbocharger. A couple of days at the local Hyundai dealer, and all was perfect. The problem has thankfully not re-occurred.

    I just bought my 2011 Limited Sonata. Black exterior with black leather interior. Best car I have ever had. Looks and drives like you paid for a BMW. Cannot go wrong with this car. This is my 4th sonata after having the 2003, 2007, and 2009. Would never think of driving anything else

  • Was basically told this is a disposable car - 2011 Hyundai Sonata
    By -

    2 yr old lease well maintained...had problems throughout lease with different check engine lights ...never found cause.eventually would go off by themselves. Car hits 130,000 miles engine shuts off, Im told its seized and has electrical issues. 8-12k in repairs.contacted 3 dealerships & customers service. Was basically told by customer service and regional that car is disposable. They provided me a car with a 100,000 mile warranty & they are off the hook. Will not even consider help w/ repairs or the requested assistance or incentive to buy another Hyundai .This was my 6th Hyundai + I recommended at least 6 other people to buy hyundais..NEVER AGAIN ....dont buy Hyundai they dont care
