1997 Hyundai Sonata review from North America
"Don't waste ur money"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
This was first car I ever bought sadly to say, then 15 days after I bought it the exaust got a huge hole in it, then few months later the tranny died, then few months later the tranny died agian. The funniest part about this is tons of reviews for it say at 100k miles they r no good, when I hit 100,003 the timming belt just snapped.
General comments?
Its comfy and rides smooth, all its got goin for it.
