2008 gray Hyundai Sonata- best investment ever!
Great gas mileage, roomy trunk, no mechanical issues. Simple maintenance. Oil changes every 3 months. Over 150k miles, bought used. Only complaint is that the radio is going out. Wire loose so it goes in and out. Interior on my vehicle is a light gray color so I have to be careful with spills.

It's a good vehicle. Gets us where we are going
Our vehicle has been very dependable for our family with the exception of having to replace the motor. We live it otherwise and it always gets us where we are going. It's provided us with a very dependable family car since 2008. We would consider buying another Hyundai.

100% the best vehicle I've ever driven.
Perfect performance. I love that it's great on gas. I depend greatly on the type of car it is. Most likely to get a new car from Hyundai in the future. It's very comfortable to sit in. Features I love is that it has a sunroof so I can open it up in the summertime. Haven't had too much problems with it but just bringing it in for routine maintenance like oil changes and tire rotations, etc,,

Great and inexpensive family size sedan.
I purchase this vehicle 2009 used. In the nine years that I have had this car, the only maintenance that I have had to do is brakes, and oil changes. In addition is really great on gas mileage. There's not much else I can say, but I am going to kept, as long as it keeps performing like it has in the past.

The Hyundai sonata is comfortable, practical, and affordable.
My car performs great and runs smooth and quiet. It is not slow or sluggish. The seats are comfortable. It has great gas mileage. I like it so much that this is the second one I have owned. My first I got rear ended in and I was fine. I drove two hours to find this one, because I only will drive manual transmissions and they are hard to find these days.

My experience with Hyundai.
I have had very few problems with my 2008 Hyundai Sonata. I would highly recommend Hyundai vehicles to anyone looking to purchase a new vehicle. The warranty is great and the vehicle has required very little maintenance. The mileage for Hyundai's is in line with other vehicle manufacturers. My next Hyundai will probably be a hybrid.

Hyundai Sonata is a reliable car
My vehicle has been very reliable and generally been a pleasure to drive. I haven't had any maintenance issues beyond standard recommended maintenance. Gas mileage is not as great as I would like, but it is an older car, so can't expect it to be as good as the newer models on that front.

This roomy sedan will smoothly and comfortably get you where you need to go.
Our Hyundai Sonata is absolutely great! It performs extremely well in all weather conditions and virtually always provides a smooth ride. Whether we're just driving it to the local grocery store or taking it on a three-hour trip down the highway, we have always been impressed with the functionality and quality experience our Sonata gives us. The interior is a very soft cloth material, and there is a lot of space, which is crucial for us since we have two large dogs that we like to bring on car rides. My favorite feature would have to be the Bluetooth, as it makes driving a hands-free affair and is thus significantly safer for driver and passenger alike. For us, the only real issue we had with our vehicle was the tires, which we wound up replacing. They were inconsistently losing air, and the tire pressure would dramatically change each time we went to start the car. Aside from that, we have been very fortunate with our car.

My car is comfortable. Even though it is a 2008 car, the car is comfortable in good shape. Right now the car doesn't have any problems. The car is fast, the AC is amazing.

This has been a really reliable and easy to maintenance car. I don't drive a lot, so my mileage is really low for a 10 year old car, but I have been very pleasantly surprised by the quality of this vehicle. It's lasted me through 3 car seats and lots of road trips to visit family.

Best 4-cylinder vehicle out there.
I have a 4-cylinder navy blue 2008 Hyundai sonata. It is really big on the inside and has a really big trunk although it doesn't look like it would. Since it is a 4-cylinder sometimes I have a hard time going uphill at above 30 mph. The door handles are pretty easy to rip off as well, I have replaced 2 of them now. I did try the 6-cylinder but I chose the 4 anyway. I love my car and it has great sound system and the seats are easily changeable/reclinable. I do wish it had an aux input but it is older so it's okay.

Hyundai Sonata? More like Hyundai SONAta
I think my sonata drives very smoothly, which I love. My main problem is that the windows only want to work when they feel like it, the AC does not work, and my car breaks down if I'm not blasting the heater, which makes everything difficult in the summer especially since I can't roll my window down. It's basically a moving sauna.

My 2008 Hyundai sonata is reliable and easy to use. It has not had many issues over the years. Had to get a new co2 sensor and a new transmission switch, but that is about it.

Perfect car for commuting!
This vehicle is pretty great! Its spacious, handles well, offers a semi-quiet ride, and gets good gas mileage. Trunk size is on the large size which is nice for groceries or when going on trips.

Hyundai sonata wear and tear repairs.
This car has been very reliable over the years. I purchased it used and have experienced normal wear and tear like any other vehicle and I have maintained it well. I purchased it at CarMax with the CarMax extended warranty and am glad I did. I have used it many times for repairs which have saved me money. Repairs over the last 5 years include: new a/c, all 4 door handles fell off, 2 power windows broke and the 'sonata' emblem fell off. But with proper maintenance, this car has never left me stranded. It does drive rather slow though so if you are looking for a car with good pickup, this is not it.

Great in all weather, minor interior design quirks
I only have minor complaints about the Sonata. The cup holders are sized impractically for only one beverage - all too often my morning coffee ends up spilling over either from acceleration or braking. Mechanically I haven't had any issues, but my reverse lights are not currently working despite new bulbs, and the tpms dash light has been lit since shortly after I bought it a year ago. The car is well powered, handles almost as well as my previous one, a 2013 Dodge Dart, and does far better in the snow. I've made it through icy roads that stranded larger and smaller vehicles alike. I work at a hospital on a large hill, and I've not had to call out once for fear of not making it to work.

Be really careful if you own a 2008. In carcomplaints.com the car is listed as a great buy. However if you have any of the same issues as mine. An independent mechanic will not touch the gas pedal. They want the dealership mechanics to fix. So you will be stuck. Dealership will keep car for 7 days do a diagnostic (the sensors don't give a diagnostic code) so if they drive it and it doesn't do anything they will give it back.
Tons of complaints. There is an electrical short that causes my doors to not lock. It also causes my radio to reset itself. The tpms light came on only a few months of owning. The airbag light had come on. Lastly the gas pedal sticks. Hyundai won't fix cause they can't replicate it. Unsafe car!

The car is a nice color and does not give me any problems also has good miles.
My car runs good and is a good gas saver. It gets me were I need to go also if I want to travel out of town. Love the model and the way the car is set up. Ac always works fine which is really great for the summer. Would recommend people on getting this brand of car also I know that the newer versions are very good.

Bad paint job. Bad customer relations. Will never buy another one.
It is the worst vehicle I have owned. It has a very bad factory paint job and the manufacturer refuses to do anything about it. Three window motors have died. Any time I read of a recall, "my vehicle type is not included." The airbag board is messed up, but no recall.

Its very reasonably priced while looking like a luxury car.
The car is very stylish looking and the price was very affordable. It looks like a jaguar but not the price of one. It has get up and go for when acceleration is needed. The seats are very comfortable and roomy. No complaints.

Hyundai Sonata compact travel car
Had problems with wheels shaking while braking at high speed. Other than that car is nice for it to be an 08'. Seat warmers work well, comes with ashtray and cup holders in the back seat. Cup holders in the front of inefficient in holding drinks, when you break they fall forward.

For me it is the perfect car.
It is a really great car. Some minor issues in the past but nothing that couldn't be fixed or an issue that does not happen with all other cars.

No problems in 11 years and very comfortable.
Only thing I don't like is the "one" coat of paint.

Very reliable transportation.
Very reliable transportation. Less than 35000 miles and gets great gas mileage. Originally leased it new and when the lease was up, I decided to buy it because I liked it so much.

Overall it is a nice and sleek vehicle.
The struts are bad on my suv. Also the fact there is not a usb plug in the car is terrible. Just because you have nothing but cds or the radio because satellite radio is a waste.

It's very comfortable and gets good gas mileage. Hyundai's warranty program works and they did fix the problems I had, but it took quite a while.
My Hyundai Sonata is a very nice car, gets good gas mileage and is very comfortable. I bought it primarily because of Hyundai's 10 year/100,000 mile warranty and I was able to benefit from that warranty twice in the early years of owning it.

It's a great car. Wouldn't give it up unless I absolutely needed to.
It's a really great car. Minor problems in the past but nothing that couldn't be fixed. Wouldn't trade it.

I've had my car for 5 years and have only changed the battery once
Hyundai Sonata is a great car to have . It's excellent on gas mileage drives smooth and just an overall great car to have. Extremely spacious, rides great. Good car to have if you're traveling long distance. I got my particular model from a dealership in Chapel Hill. The gentleman and lady that helped me secure the car was extremely nice and helpful. They both made sure I got exactly what I wanted at the time and made sure I got a great deal on the price and mileage on the car. When I purchased it, it only had one owner before myself and only had 10,000 miles on it. Practically a brand new car. They only had it for a year .
