2009 Hyundai Sonata review from North America
"Second rate garbage"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Very poor gas mileage - below sticker minimum; service manager says this is normal for Hyundai due to ethanol in all gas - so much for the warranty and federal disclosures!
General comments?
Car is uncomfortable and heat/air controls unreadable without causing an accident.
No miles per gallon indicator.
Gas door is cheap plastic and almost came off when I first opened it.
