Transmission sensor...

It seems all the sonatas are having this transmission issue and Hyundai has done nothing to fix it. Not even extend the manufacturing warranty or offer a discount. It's not right and I don't appreciate it!!!

2012 hyundai sonata

I would not recommend the 2012 sonata. I bought it new and it has had too many recalls on this model year. I also have a 2002 sonata, which still runs better than the 2012 model. Thus if anybody is looking for the used car, don't buy the 2012 sonata. Hopefully the later years have corrected the problems.

It’s a ?

I have had trouble out of this car every since I had it, taken it back and forth to the dealership and staying to three hours. From my backup camera to sensors has been worked on, the engine light stays on and no one knows why! I hold my breath every time and turn the key because anything could be wrong with it or going out on it, I just paid it off and I don’t want to go in debt for another vehicle, every time they fix one thing something else needs fixing. 2012 sonata’s are lemons and that’s maybe just my opinion

Good cart for your money

The Sonata has been a very reliable car for me. I bought it new in 2012 and after 110,000 miles still gives me over 30 miles x gallon in the city. Minimum maintenance until the airbag light turned on and I was told needs 3 dollars to repair the airbag on the driver side. I like the car and was planning on driving it for another 2 years minimum but now I am not sure if that is safe enough to continue driving it. I hope Hyunday would had made the repairs to a faulty airbag without a cost to the consumer.

Great car, bad gas mileage

I pretty much love everything about the car except for the gas mileage especially in the summertime when the AC is running nonstop I get anywhere from 20 to 25 miles per gallon...need vehicle updates that should have been covered by hyundai but I was made to pay for them

Great value and very reliable

Great value. Stylish inside and out. Very reliable. Fold down rear seats expand trunk capacity. Repair costs seem to be reasonable. Easy to drive on the freeway and off. Exterior finish is holding up well.

Nice car!

Love my Sonata but a little concerned about the number of recalls that just keep coming. Everything has always been taken care of to my satisfaction but still a concern. Glad Hyundai stands behind their cars!

My second Sonata. I am a major Hyundai Sonata fan!

My second Sonata. I am a major Hyundai Sonata fan! I have owned many other brands and Hyundai is now my first choice. My first car served me well and this one is still going strong and I put close to 200000 miles on my first. For me, the Sonata gives me the most comfort and value for the money. I always recommend the Sonata to my friends!

Sonata 2012

Car has 113,000 miles and runs well. What I don’t care for is too much hard plastic in the interior. This seems to be an issue with Hyundai’s. I find that Toyota’s, Honda’s, and Subaru’s seem to be more “solid” as they age compared to my Hyundai

This a agreat vehicle

This car is reliable. It is an I4 with a 2.4 Liter engine that develops over 200 hp but gets 40 mph on the highway. It is eye catching and very streamlined but very comfortable. The cloth seats are a bit hard to keep clean and delicate. I like the car so much I have purchased a leather kit to convert the seats, headrests and console to leather. The headlights are not too great. But I like the car so much I put in Innovited 55w HID bulbs and now they work fine after much help from Sharon Norman and the techs on getting them alligned.

Love it but.....

I have loved my Sonata since owning it and I bought it new (2012). I love the power from the turbo, comfort, even on long trips, gas mileage and style. The last 15 months or so I’ve been chasing a noise that can not be identified as to where it’s coming from. It started off not consistent which I know makes it harder, but it has been consistent for at least the last six months and the dealership still can’t find it. I’ve given up putting money into it even though it drives me crazy to hear it, but I’ve paid enough for no results. My last experience with the dealer was so bad that I’ll just drive it until the wheels fall off now, but it makes me sad because I truly love my car.

Transmission woes

When we first bought the car,we LOVED it. It had everything we were looking for. Plenty of room for our three growing kids and plenty of trunk space for our family trips. Then the transmission problems started. My wife not hates to drive this car.
