  • Great Car - 2004 Hyundai Sonata
    By -

    What a surprise to own a car that is fun to drive, plus the 10 year 100000 warranty. After looking at the Toyota and Honda line of cars we shopped for the Hyundai as one of our friends has two. We fell in love at first sight and walked out of the dealership for $4000.00 than the others we had looked at. We give it a 10.0 because of the no hassell from the dealer, the $2000.00 rebate and the quality. One should look at one. You will be surprised.

    i have driven my car almost 38000 miles in two+ years. It is a beautiful car and I have had no problems with it other than the cassette stopped working. I took it in and it was immediately replaced. Gas mileage is around 28mpg. The seats could stand a bit more padding .

    Just totalled my car, for some reason the left rear tire came off on its own on highway and the car went into a ditch. No other problems, not sure whether any body else has had their tires come off.

    I have had my 2004 Sonata LX into the Service Department for regular oil changes and once for a rattle. Other than that, it has been maintenance- free and a wonderful car to own. I would happily buy it again given the same circumstances. I bought it for the warranty but have really enjoyed driving it.

  • a lot of bang for your buck! - 2004 Hyundai Sonata

    Super value. get the 6 cylinder, 4 cylinder works too hard to propel a mid- size sedan. Shiftronic feature is great. You can shift up (or downshift) through the gears, or let it go automatic. On the downside, resale value is terrible. If you get one, plan to hold on to it for a while.

  • Excellent choice - 2004 Hyundai Sonata
    By -

    I got this car in January 2004 and on one trip I took from Florida to California I averaged 34.9 gallons per mile. I set it on cruise control at the speed limit (which varied) and kept going. Didnt check the mpg until I got there and needless to say I was pleasantly surprised. I am trading it in for a 2006 Santa Fe only because I need more hauling capacity for things I buy.

  • Good Value - 2004 Hyundai Sonata

  • I love my Hyundai! - 2004 Hyundai Sonata

    My husband and I have owned many cars from compact cars to SUVs, thus far my Hyundai Sonata has been my absolute favorite! It rides so smoothly and it has excellent safety features. It has maintained mechanical stability since day one. I recently had to purchase a new SUV in order to have more room for additional children, but I still love to take my Hyundai anytime the children are not with me! I highly reccommend this car!

    The Sonata is great to drive. It is comfortable and has a great warranty. Its drive is very smooth and has great pickup. After the test drive, I was sold on owning one. After 4 months of owning it, I know I made a great choice.
