Expesive

While this is the top of the line for Hyundai, they are super expensive to repair. Im the lucky second owner of an Equus and unfortunately, mine has been plagued with major repairs. In just a little over a year, I've had almost 7K in repairs that Hyundai won't stand behind due to me being the second owner. It's always the stuff breaking that's not under the remaining warranty that's the killer.

A lot of features for the money competing with top class competitors such as Lexus Ls460 and Mercedes Benz S Class..Equus is the car to drive.Also beating the Lexus with more power and better stearing

Hyundai 2012 Equus

A reliable car that strives to compete with the German/Japanese flagships. I bought it for its value since brand names do not interest me.It's fit and finish cannot be faulted but the interior somehow lacks bling of outright luxury.After 6 years of ownership and 98,000 mines on the odometer the engine gained a few decibels,but performed almost as when it was new.Original suspension and brake components still in operation.

Equus a good overall value for luxury

Purchased the car new in 2012 after comparing to other luxury models. While the Equus was not quite up to the level of standards in all respects, compared to others, for the price, it was a great value. Car required a replacement computer, under warranty, at about 40K. Glad I bought the extended warranty as that more than compensated the warranty cost. Other than that the vehicle has been very reliable, runs well on regular gas with occasional treatments of fuel system cleaner additive. Nicest car I've yet owned. Looking at a G90 will be on the agenda when the time comes.

Customer Satisfaction & An Issue

I have enjoyed driving my EQUUS during the past 6 years. The only challenging issue for us during this period was the location of the Parkway Hyundai being too far (over 100 miles) from our home. The Hyundai Dealership in Bakersfield was not authorized to service EQUUS at that time. When the alternator went out, I had to ride the towing truck from Bakersfield to Parkway Hyundai in Valencia and waited for the entire day until it was replaced with a new one. In addition, when I drove the car out from the dealership to the street at 6 p.m. (a few minutes driving), I noticed a red warning sign blinking on the dashboard informing me that the trunk was not locked. (This was not a problem when I brought the car in.) Since I was afraid of driving the car with my trunk not locked for over 100 miles, I went back to the dealership and had to leave my car there for the night until next day. My husband had to drive from Bakersfield to Valencia to pick me up. Arrived at the dealership around 9 p.m. and then it was almost midnight when we returned home in Bakersfield. To make the matter worse, when I called the service department next morning to discuss this issue, the service staff for our car on that day was very rude and he blamed me for causing that trunk problem myself, which was absolutely untrue. Anyway, I let the dealership know about this issue with the service dept. staff that day.

Hyundai Equus 2012

Great Car, High Maintenance cost. Lots of bells and whistles. I wish the car had lane warning mirrors because it only make sense. The car is roomy, handles well with the right tires. So many gadgets but all of the buttons don't work all of the time, like a short is in it. ie the back seat reclining feature or leg rest.

Great car lots of toys, but it isnt cheap to keep!

Great car, solid ride, lots of bells and whistles. Could feel a little more solid cosmetically ie.. knobs and buttons. I will keep it as long as it is under warranty. Can afford to maintain it as the parts and up keep can be costly.

I have had my Equus for almost 3 years now. I would choose it over a BMW and Mercedes in a heartbeat. I had a Genesis and I upgraded to this. My back seats recline. I can controls my air and music from the controls in the back seat.

Love the car it’s a great value, but

Purchased the car used in Oct 2018, everything was rolling great until it appeared that I was having a oil leak due to the sudden drop in the amount of oil in the car in less than 90 days. I took the car in and the dealer started an excessive oil consumption test, that had to be completed at the only Genesis dealer in the Sacramento area at that time, approximately 40 miles away, when I have a Hyundai dealer 13 mikes away. The testing has yet to be completed .

The car has been extremely dependable. It has about 100,000 miles and my wife does not want to trade it in. She loves the car. She has and continues to have people ask her,"What kind of car is that"? When she tells them they say "Really?, Very Nice."

So far so good...4.5 stars

This car has been the best value for the money, ranks up there with the other large sedans such as BMW, Mercedes Benz, Infinity, etc. I have even been asked is this a Mercedes, and even a Bentley. Very pleased with my purchase and choice...

Best value for the money...

Great all around vehicle with the styling, ride, power, and comforts expected in a high end sedan. Bought my Equus new in 2012. Originally was looking at the BMW 7 series, Mercedes Benz S550, and Audi A8. After driving the Equus, my mind was made up immediately...
