This car is so stripped down!

This is my second lease of Hyundai Sonata - the only reason I returned was the quality of my previous lease. The 2018 has been stripped of a lot of extras that made it feel like a premium car. I won't look for a Sonata when this lease is up.

It comes with issues

Things are set up odd. Apple CarPlay will not work if you touch the cords, your phone or if there is a bump in the road. There is no CD player and the Bluetooth is not the best quaility. There is no CD player that could make up for the tease of having CarPlay and Bluetooth that don’t work. Runs great but if you are a bells and whistles type of person the car sucks. The car makes me really miss my 2008 Ford.

Not stable

If I am driving in highway @ 70 miles vehicle is wobbling.. I think my selection is wrong . After I purchased this vehicle from this vendor I came.to know other vendors are offering free cargo net and chrome handle and price is less ( at least $500) comparing to heritage

2018 Hyundai Sonata Limited

Too many problems, I have driven vehicle about 3400 miles since new, brake disc were rusted, would not cover under warrantee, finally after several calls, got approved, Hyundai district service manager Christopher very rude, hung up on me! Called him back, left message that the brakes were a safety issue, and if I got into an accident, I would sue Hyundai! Would not buy another Hyundai, this is a Blue lemon! Have had several Hyundai's, and so has my family and friends, they also have had problems! Would sell vehicle back in a heartbeat!

2018 sonata

please see previous responses related to "no start" via push button. although the vehicle eventually starts, a 5-10 minute wait while repeatedly attempting to start a brand new vehicle is extremely disappointing and unacceptable. please take action to remedy this defect asap. thank you.

Scared

This car was running perfectly for over a year and we loved it, we brought it in for an oil change and received back a car that may need a motor replacement. We are really concerned about the reliability of the vehicle after such a major repair, not knowing what happened to the car when we were just getting the oil changed and here we are, five days later and still don't know what is going on.

Buyer's Remorse

Bought the 2018 Hyundai Sonata SE brand new with 9 miles on it. Owned for a little over two months, 3564 miles on it. At the first oil change, they said they were doing an update on the computer software. Less than 5 miles down the road, the car went into "Limp Mode", miss firing and the check engine light flashing. Now I have a loaner and my brand new vehicle is sitting at the dealership with who knows what issue and undrivable. All the service department told me is that they have to order a new wiring harness, this one has too much interference / static. Nothing like paying on a brand new vehicle that you cant even drive. First time Hyundai buyer, definitely not off to a good start.

10000 miles and in the shop 2 to 3 weeks

The vehicle was scheduled for an upgrade and now it has been in the shop 2 week. I was told the service department would get back with me and even left a message with the manager. And over a week later still have heard nothing from anyone

2018 Sonata

Engine failed after 20000 miles. Not satisfied with this Sonata. Traded in a o2015 Sonata with no issues. Car still in shop for 30 days and counting. Should have been provided option to get a new vehicle

Replacing Engine before 10,000 Miles

I currently own two 2013 Sonatas, driven by my sons, and they have been great vehicles. My 2018 Sonata SLE, however, is a completely different story. The feature set is great, although the layout of the center console makes it difficult to select comfort controls while driving. (It is just a line of buttons that require you to take your eyes off the road.) The main issue is that the engine must now be replaced with less than 10,000 miles on the car. And, I had purchased the car new from the dealer with 5,000 miles. With such few miles driven, I would have expected a replacement of the car with another dealer demo - or at least to have the engine replaced with a new engine. Instead, the manufacturer is forcing me to accept a remanufactured engine under the warranty! After working with Hyundai's corporate lemon department, they denied my claim but offered me $2,000 in compensation. Do you think that is fair? Accepting the payment would require my waiving any future warranty or rights to future lemon law claims! This is how they treat a four time Hyundai customer!

Not safe car now that this recall came out . Not good that you pay for a car that should be safe and I almost got in a accident . Gas mileage is great but now have my doubt about my choice when I bought car .

Sonata limited

The care lacks a CD player and none of the other fancy options make up for that. I dislike the car intensely as cd was necessary for longer trips. My next car will not be a new Hyndai but a good newer used car with a CD PLAYER. What a dumb ass decision to remove them from your cars. I intensely dislike this car. My smart phone and sirus radio DOL NO make up for no CD
