2006 Hyundai Tiburon GS review from North America
"I wouldn't take this car if someone gave it to me"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Transmission replaced a little after having the car for a year. It took almost three weeks for it to be replaced.
Computer chip replaced a little after a year. It took an additional week.
A hose was replaced, that was really expensive. I could have replaced it at a cheaper price, but they said it had to be Hyundai.
The backseat is way too small, no one can sit in the back.
I've had my car for almost four years, and something has happened to it every year.
Now, I have no heat, it only blows out cold air, until it start to overheat. The service center isn't being very friendly or caring about this problem. I have had too many problems out of this car it's not even funny. I wish I never bought it, I was warned not to buy a Hyundai, but I didn't listen.
