2002 Hyundai Matrix review from Indonesia
"An affordable European designed car which meets all it's requirements in it's class"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The steering shaft wasn't properly installed, making the steering wheel looked unaligned when driving in a straight line. Had to bring it for service many times to find out the real problem. Clanking noise when braking, ends up being the emergency brake needing an adjustment.
General comments?
A family car which meets all it's requirements being one. Not a performance car, but a rather noisy engine during high acceleration. Very comfortable in it's price range. Spacious interior with no nonsense redundant design.
