  PROBLEM CAR - 2001 Hyundai XG300
  By Chrystal - June 2 - 9:53 pm

  I have owned this car less than one year and its not a good car. Check engine light has came on 3 times, took car in three times for noise when shifting and acceleration problems. Currently my car is sitting in the shop, and has been for a week. They replaced my transmission, motor mounts, transmission mount, and reprogrammed my ECM and my car is still not running correctly. Luckily it only has 55,000 miles and is still under warranty. This car has more problems than it was worth and I have big time buyers remorse from this purchase. I have called Hyundai directly to note my dissatisfaction with their company but they dont seem to care. Always have to wait for parts on car too.

  very impressed - 2001 Hyundai XG300
  By fleedom - May 14 - 11:13 pm

  I have owned my XG300 for about 7 months now and I enjoy driving it as much now as I did the first day I bought it. I must say that I have yet to find a sedan in the same price range as the XG300 that can compete with the handling and performance that I experience with the XG300, not to mention the value factor. I would definitely consider purchasing another XG.

  A Lemon - 2001 Hyundai XG300
  By McQuade - November 18 - 12:00 pm

  This car was the most beautiful car I have ever driven or seen. I drove many GM, but this took my heart. For mechanical issues it was never ending. We work for GM dealership, we know mechanics, so to all who read this, pick your mechanic carefully, and keep all work orders. Just wrecked mine due to mechanic error, and cheep parts, buy the best quality parts, it might save your life, and question your Service manager on the parts replaced, I should have known better, but I trusted them. my heart is broken, could have been my life.

  transmission update - 2001 Hyundai XG300
  By m. wolf - September 10 - 7:36 am

  In my 6/6/05 review, I mentioned the transmission was shuddering sometimes when it shifted. After seeing some others that had the same problem, I took it to the dealer and asked about a possible faulty trans sensor. The dealership called me 4 hrs later and said I need a new transmission because it has a bad torque converter(?)! My car only has 32,000 miles on it, and I just bought it in 2/2005. But, the 5yr/60,000 mi warranty is still good until 3/06/2006 (and it did transfer), that was a close one! I still like the car but Im not quite as confident about it getting me where I need to go - safely.

  Its ok not more - 2001 Hyundai XG300
  By baba - June 21 - 10:00 am

  Ive owned my XG300 for one year and have had it in the shop at least four times for non routine maintance issues.I would still suggest for a low budget car its not bad overall.The so called options like Leather seats, wood grain accents, etc........are not up to par with the more expensive makes and models...This is obvious after after the excitement wears off.............

  Listen to the Expert Reviewers - 2001 Hyundai XG300
  By familyfour - June 9 - 2:00 am

  I was a little nervous at first because the expert reviewers gave the XG300 at best an average review. Wish I had followed my instincts. Four times in seven months towing the car to the shop. I know someone else that still has a 300, she is having the same problems I did. The car did get me more comments than any other Ive driven but looks dont guarantee dependability.
