My 2009 Hyundai Sonata

I purchased this car, new, back in 2009 during Obama's "Cash For Clunkers" program. Overall, I've been very pleased with it as it is my "grocery getter". Its been very economical to operate; MPG's are excellent as it has a 4-cylinder engine. I just wish Hyundai would offer this engine with a supercharger for the extra "zip" that my car lacks. After 9 years of ownership, I'm still trying to figure out the on-board GPS system.

Satisfaction

Dillon's Service Department has kept my Sonata running perfectly for nearly ten years. It's a wonderful feeling to be driving a reliable vehicle. Twice-yearly inspections are able to maintain the car and foresee any problems that can be remedied before they become big problems.

Affordable and Reliable

I've had this car since 2014 and it has 150K miles on it. I put 70,000 on. It has required very few repairs and none have been major. It just keeps going. I had heard that zHyundais built in 2010 and later were good cars, but this is what I could afford and it is great.

Dependability

We have had minimal issues with our Sonata, except for a/c compressors. The original lasted for three years, has been three times since. Fortunately, I purchased the extended warranty. The only problem that I have is that each replacement compressor is a remanufactured part. Modern remanufactured compressors have a high failure rate. WHY not replace with new and don't worry again?! Our car is in excellent condition with only 87,000 miles. Beyond the compressor issue we are very, very satisfied and will buy Hyundai again!

Long lasting quality

Have enjoyed owning this car. Been very reliable. Cleared to see why this is a top seller. Will look for another Hyundai vehicle in my next purchase. Look forward to passing this car down to my children.

Still running great

This car is still running great. It is very comfortable for short or long trips. Gets decent mileage (nearly 30 on long trips). Fairly easy to repair simple things like bulbs. Going on 110k miles and beyond.

Still Going Strong!!

I purchased a 2009 Sonata in 2008 and it is still roadworthy, reliable and performing as it has always performed. I adhere to the service maintenance schedules and have not had any issues. While nothing is wrong with my vehicle, I am tossing the idea of getting a new vehicle; however, I ONLY IN THE THINKING STAGE. Of course, my first thought is another Hyundai vehicle but haven't begun thinking of which model and/or accessories. IF I make a purchase, it will be my third Keffer purchase and I will maintain the servicing of it through this dealership.

Outstanding Service Technicians and Service Department and Front Desk Personel

Both my Hyundai Sonata and My Nissan Sentra are absolutely outstanding vehicles. I bought my Nissan in 2002 (new from Woodall) and it's still running like a charm. 220,743 miles and we change the oil every 3000 miles and she never fails to run every day for chores around home. We bought the Hyundai Sonata in 2009 and use it for long distance travel, so comfortable and runs outstanding too. We change the oil in it every 3000 miles also but the miles are relatively low since it's only used for the occasional long trip to vacation or other necessary long distance trips. Woodall has the best deals in Danville, VA in our opinion. Thanks Woodall employees, your the best and so are your vehicles.

This is an excellent car. The performance and the warranty are great was working families. Very affordable, good looking and reliable for a working family or anyone looking for a great car. I highly recommend you test driving one and bet you will want to purchase one.

Great vehicle

Over 10 years and 167,000 miles of ownership; no intentions of giving up on it, Great highway car, comfortable, “feel safe” body size, looks beautiful and attractive in and out. Very happy I bought it back in December 2008. In today’s pricing, I would not be able to purchase anything comparable. Car prices have been increasing too fast to the point that even car loans have been pushed to 6, 7 and even eight years because consumers cannot afford cars anymore; these loans do not make sense because most people don’t want to be tied to one car that long and worst, the residual value is no longer there but yet you still have payments to make.

2009 Hyundai

I like the way this car drives and I am very comfortable riding in it. I can adjust the seat where I can see out of it very good. I like the style and color of it. I have had persons wanting me to trade it, or sell it. I really like it and have no intentions of trading it or selling it.

Why pay Mercedes prices when you can have a 2009 Sonata?

If only my odometer read 151 miles rather than 151,000 miles. I'd drive this car forever. Mercedes quality at reasonable prices with much lower maintenance costs. The 2009 Sonata handles well in all kinds of weather; very low road noise; I've driven hundreds of miles without feeling 'all shook up.' I've taken good care of my Sonata and it's taken good care of me, from literally one end of the country to the other. Many thanks for a quality product.

Great dependable vehicle

In the 222,000 miles regular maintenance and parts that usually wear out, shocks, struts, wheel bearings and valve cover gaskets which most of these lasted till over 150,000 miles, we have only had to have the throttle body position sensor replaced. That sensor went out while the car was still under the bumper to bumper warranty. That being said we did hit a pot whole and broke the traction control which cost us $1400 to fix and the Hyundai dealer was the only one that could read the codes to fix it. But most of that was in the 3 sensors that blu out $1100.

Still in love

Almost 170k and a little over 10 years later still doing ok with some maintenance here and there. Hope to keep it as long as possible. Don’t understand why the residual value is not higher like the Toyota’s or Honda’s have.
