2001 Hyundai XG300 review from North America
"Drives well for a piece of crap!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Engine Code Light would come on and the vehicle has shut off twice while driving. I am on my third trans. My drive belt and fan belt have went. The harmonic balancer broke off and the A/C clutch froze up. Just to fix the problems with the A/C and harmonic balancer cost over $700. I have had this car in the shop over 20 times with in the past year and a half.
General comments?
The handling of the car when it works is one of the best out there for its money. BUT, "big, but" I will never buy a Hyundai again!
