2001 Hyundai Tiburon SE review from North America
"Great little car, but too many problems"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My flex pipe was broken when I bought the car :(. The dealer tried to tell me that I was the one who broke it. Then he said that I would have to pay for it myself, so I went to the BBB and worked it out with them, and the dealer ended up paying for it.
Just the other day my front windshield cracked when I lightly moved the rear view mirror.
Now a couple days after that, my windshield wipers are not working and it has been raining here for the last week. I took my car to Hyundai; they told me it was the links and that it is going to cost me $200 to fix it.
The seat belts always lock up in the front and the back.
The drivers side door is also getting stuck now.
And insurance is extremely high.
General comments?
The car is comfortable and quick. It handles great and sounds great, as well as being very good on gas.
The factory speakers are the best I have ever heard, and there is plenty of room in the trunk for stuff.
