1999 Hyundai Sonata GLS review from North America
"Don't bother if you don't want the headache"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Engine light keep coming on.
Power window would not let up. Transmission skips. Recall on it.
Sensor not tighten or need to be replace.
Idle up to high when it was in park
Seats are very uncomfortable on long trips.
Static with certain cloths, shock me even when cranking the car.
General comments?
Going back and forth to the dealership. I told them I am tried of coming out here for something they did not tighten or something they left off. I was asking customer what problems have they had with their car while in the dealership and they called me a troublemaker. Told me to take my service somewhere else. Plus I notice my battery was switch for another when it was in the shop for two days. If driving is believing they have lied on the advertising.
