Kona just annoying

Impossible to keep clean both inside and outside. Uncomfortable driver’s side seat. Entertainment interface clunky, difficult to access Apple apps, annoying opening text when starting vehicle. Ride is less comfortable than average in class. Driver assist apps leave driver with uncomfortable feeling when active. Many other annoying features. Mechanically solid. Excellent gas mileage

Third runner up

Not worth the price I paid for the vehicle. My favorite feature is the navigation system.

Peppy to drive!

I've owned Hyundai sun's since 2005. Started with a Sante Fe, then a Tucson and now a Kona. The Kona is a fun, peppy suv. Anxious to see how it handles the snow.

Engine Light

I had received engine light notices a number of times and sat for hours to find out nothing was wrong with the car. Missed time at work due to this issue.

Great Car for the Money

I do not have high hopes that this will even be read. The car has overall has been great. The car is just over 2 years old and I have put 55,000 miles into it and it stays reliable. I have had no issues when it comes to the engine, drivetrain, or handling. The quirks are as followed however. Within the first year one of the back windows stopped functioning entirely and will not come back down. The cruise control does not hold a speed. It barely holds +- 3mph. I will frequently hit -5mph off the setting. But it will immediately floor it back to +2mph after "realizing". Some of the sealant gaskets on the cars metal shell have degraded, fell out, and broke off. There is no water intrusion yet so no problem I guess. Overall though, I am focusing on the maintenance of the drivability part and it holds. I see this car easily going 150k miles before any real hiccups.

I have another issue with the horn. It doesn’t work again.Safety issue

This is the 3rd time this has happened. Then one of the windows wouldn’t work. These were all fixed with visits to the dealership in Cicero NY.

Shadow

Perfect vehicle for me, drives nicely, enough get up & go, except, she should have an automatic trunk release. I'm amazed this feature wasn't part of the package. A gross Hyundai oversight IMO

Nice car. Great for a single person.

Was looking for something that is easier to get in and out of. This car fits that bill.
