  Very Impressed - 2006 Hyundai Sonata
  By Nancy - August 23 - 12:50 am

  Owned a 2002 Saturn L300 before this car. Originally was going to buy an Elantra, drove the Sonata as an after-thought and bought it instead. Absolutely LOVE this car - it handles well, gets better mileage than the Saturn and is infinitely quieter than the Saturn. Unbelievable value for the money - a Camry/Accord class vehicle for a lot less. I am very impressed with how far Hyundai has come from when they were first introduced in America.

  2006 Hyundai Sonata LX 6 cyl - 2006 Hyundai Sonata
  By Greg W - August 21 - 10:55 pm

  I have an 06 Sonata with the 6 cylinder. I have had one emission issue with the car at 70k miles (I had to pay for the repair). I purchased my first set of tires at 68 k miles and I just had the brakes inspected @ 74 k and front and rear are at 75% new. Besides the normal maintenance (bulbs, wiper blades), I’ve had to repair under warranty the w/s wiper pump, and a couple of check engines until I had the gas cap thing down. I love this car, so I bought my fifth Hyundai and second Sonata today. The 06 car handles well, has great pick up and gives even more with the shift- tronic. Plenty of drivers leg room with easy cabin controls. Great braking and the ESC and multiple air bags a plus.

  By Luke - August 20 - 11:20 pm

  it is best vehicle that you can buy at this price. surprisingly quiet. powerful. comfort with huge interior room and it gives you peace of mind about stantard airbags and abs, esc, tcs. you can run any moment. most industrial standard safety features. and plus best warranty in america that none of the competitors have it. and standart mp3 encoded cd player will gives you almost 150 songs in one cd to play and it shows name of the file that you wont forget it.

  Loyal Hyundai owners - 2006 Hyundai Sonata
  By Robin - August 19 - 6:47 pm

  This is our third Hyundai, our first sonata. We have put 80000 miles on it in three years. We love the 30 miles per gallon on the highway. Can travel from Houston to Wichita Falls on one tank of gas! We love the roominess and the low cost of maintenance. We have not had any trouble with it.

  Awesome But... - 2006 Hyundai Sonata
  By Mark - August 12 - 4:43 am

  This is a great car and I really like it but it has an engine whine at 60- 70MPH that is very annoying. So far Hyundai refuses to do anything to resolve the prblem. As I said I really like the car but not sure I could recommend it due to engine issue and Hynudais lack of help.

  88,000 miles - 2006 Hyundai Sonata
  By T Slape - August 6 - 10:10 pm

  I drive it a lot. Both visors failed after warranty, Hyundai wouldnt replace them. Something is rattling in the rear end, not sure what, but I think it needs shocks/struts. Windshield washer just failed. Otherwise the car is great and I would buy another. The trailer hitch kit that said "bolts on in under 30 minutes..." did!

  Diligent Shopper - 2006 Hyundai Sonata
  By Satisfied Customer - July 31 - 1:20 am

  I was hesitant to buy a Hyundai at first. In the last two months, however, I have bought two! I was very satisfied with my purchase of a Hyundai Tucson so I took a good luck at the Sonata. I was very impressed by the fit and finish, ride quality and solid performance of the 235hp V6. It is very smooth and practically silent and free of vibrations while idling. I found the drivers seat a bit firm at first, but I got used to that in a very short time. I researched my purchase over several months. I looked at everything from the Volvo S40 to the Ford Fusion, and found that the Sonata was the best overall value. Best of all, the performance of the Sonata beat the all. I am very pleased.

  Mix bag - 2006 Hyundai Sonata
  By Sinai - July 17 - 6:50 pm

  I bought this car almost three years ago.First owner was an old guy, so I think he didnt drive it too harsh. during past three years I had to change the whole Starter package, whole AC compressor and accessories, front struts, windshield wipers water pump ( its broken again) and replaced the battery twice. CD player may work only occasionally and can not read half of the tracks for no good reason. I changed the front shock absorbers, and it just got a little better for a while,, its just driving me crazy that how noisy and uncomfortable the car is over small bumps. I took care of the car really good and still its not reliable. when I bought the car it had 93000 miles on it and now its ~ 117000. thats stupid,,, I wont ever but any Hyundai products and will not recommend it to anybody.

  Approaching 60K - 2006 Hyundai Sonata
  By Rick - July 15 - 5:05 pm

  My 2nd sonata. Only problems have been a dead windshield washer pump and some doorlock issues, both addressed by dealer. This car is a great value, & Hyundai is a great story - they appear to be making quality vehicles at reasonable prices. Still, I enjoy our 99 e320 more, but no complaints on the brand or dealer.
