2007 Hyundai Sonata GLS review from North America
"Poor design"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Hello
I have a 07 Hyundai Sonata. They say they want me to be 100% satisfied. Well first the car is very comfortable. It has a lot of suspension noise that the service department says is normal. They say the suspension must make noise. This about my twenty first car. I never heard any suspension noise. The gas tank when 3/4 to full sloshes gas and makes a banging noise you would not believe. The replaced the gas tank and its the same. I called Hyundai consumer department. They say they know about the problem since the 2006 Sonata. Quality I hear. How come they can't design a fuel tank like everyone else.I'm also glad I didn't opt for the 6 cylinder. It is another design goof. The intake manifold has to be removed to change the spark plugs. The cost today is about $800.Quality maybe design No way.
General comments?
Good quality Poor design.
