2003 Hyundai Tiburon 2 door coupe review from North America
"It isn't durable at all, and I would never by another one. Be cautious of buying a used Tiburon"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The paint on my gas tank has chipped off.
The sun roof had broken.
The check engine light comes off and on, along with the brake and air bag lights.
The CD player has broken, and only works when it is very warm in the summer, it never works in the winter or cold weather.
The passenger handle broke off.
The door locks don't work most of the time.
I have had to replace one of the headlights twice.
The stitching on the right corner of the driver seat is coming apart from wear.
General comments?
I love my Tiburon, but it has had several issues in the last 2 years. I can say however I have had no major engine or other issues with the car. It has been a lot of cosmetic and smaller maintenance issues.
Although I have had no major issues with my Tiburon, I have had far too many overall issues to say that I support or would buy another Tiburon.
