"such a shame hyundai continues to ignore the rattle in the waste gate issues, it makes their flagship sports car sound like an old k-car running on no oil"

"I bought this car for the comfort and ease of getting in and out of due to my bad back. It was the most expensive car I have ever purchased, $30,000 used, 9,000 miles on it. Before it had 20,000 miles on it,I had to buy new tires. The GPS is out dated and the dealership wants over $200.00 to update it.When I called the Hyundai customer service number to ask about the charge, I got a lady that sounded like she was working from home and she said she'd have to get back to me, only to call back four days later with no answers. The only way I found out the car had any recalls, was when I had to take it in for tire pressure monitors going out (twice),despite having registered myself as the owner of the vehicle with Hyundai by phone. You would think they would have sent me a notice. Soooo, to say the least, customer service is the WORST. I could go on.... As for the car, it IS comfortable and handles well. I would not buy another Hyundai. I think there are other cars out there that are better values."

Dont buy the turbo!

"My 2013 2.0T premium has a horrible rattle coming from the turbo waste. Hyundai refuses to fix mine or anyone else's saying its normal. Trust me when you hear the loose washers on a bolt sound coming from our cars you wouldn't like it either. Its awful! Wouldn't recommend this car to anyone since Hyundai refuses to fix them. It cost way to much money to own a car you are embarrassed to start around people. The interior gages scratch if you breath on them to hard. The exterior paint chips if a rock gets close to it."
