I'm selling my 2011 Hyundai Sonata SE Pacific Pearl Blue with 27,5xx miles because I live in the city and don't want to pay the outrageous parking rates. I'm selling on CL because I like to cut out middlemen who do not add value whenever possible. In a nutshell, I want to split the dealer's take with you, and we can both go home happy.
- I have a folder with receipts documenting the maintenance and small repairs done on the car; the CarFax history report also verifies maintenance.
- The car has had manufacture suggested checks up to the mileage to-date.
- Oil/checks have been performed every 5k for the first 15k, and every 3k thereafter. The service dates were done by Hyundai dealerships who also performed some warranty work. Since about 15k miles, I have been taking the car to my local mechanic that has been servicing my family's cars for 15 years; we have had cars run to over 215k.
*Appearance/Exterior Work*
- In 2012, I was rear ended at a low speed while on a trip with the car. The damages were approximately $1,200 and were on the real drivers-side bumper. Recently, my drivers-side taillight became unhooked from the plastic bolts holding it in place, and I had the taillight replaced last week. I believe the taillight issue was related to the fender bender.
- The car was parked on the street in Chicago for approximately 11 months at my old apartment. During that time, I had the good fortune of being the recipient of small paint scrapes on the rear bumper, a keying on the rear passenger door (aprox. 1.5 inches), and a scoff that appears to be from a door on the rear driver's side door (aprox .25 inches). The passenger side wheels also have a few curb burns from parking too close to the curb.
-- Last week, I took the car to the body shop and had them replace the rear taillight (from above), and buff and touch-up the bumper and respective scrapes on the doors. The paint scrapes on the rear bumper are virtually gone, and the two scrapes on the doors require effort to find. I have the receipt.
- I just had the car detailed (interior and exterior) on 9/14.
From my personal point of view, my favorite aspects of the car are, in no particular order:
- looks: Hyundai did a great job redesigning the Sonata's in 2011, and the SE has bigger wheels than the Limited and more chrome than the GLS and Limited.
- efficiency and practicality: I regularly get 35+mpg on the highway and the gas tank is large enough to outlive most bladders on road trips. In terms of practicality, its a four-door sedan; it holds people comfortably and has a great size trunk.
- reliability: I have never had any problems with the car, and the warranty comforted me at the original purchase (and is still valid with plenty of time and miles remaining). The Sonata line is well regarded in terms of reliability and maintenance is relatively cheap (it ain't no BMW).
- driving: The driving experience is enjoyable for a mid-size sedan; the manual mode in the transmission is great for passing and provides a satisfactory illusion of a more sporty car on two lane twisties.
- technology: bluetooth in the car is literally lifesaving and makes it easy to make phone calls and play music from a phone and they keyless entry and start are great (you don't even have to remove the key from your pocket).

Kia leads J.D. Power's Vehicle Dependability Study for 2022
Thu, Feb 10 2022For the first year ever, Kia leads J.D. Power's annual Vehicle Dependability Study with a score of 145 problems per 100 vehicles. Buick (147) and Hyundai (148) round out the top three. The highest premium brand on the list is Genesis, with a score of 148. It's common for so-called "mass market" brands to lead this particular study, according to J.D. Power, as "premium" brands "typically incorporate more technology in their vehicles, which increases the likelihood for problems to occur" and aren't necessarily built to a higher standard that less-expensive brands. The highest-rated single nameplate is the Porsche 911. It's the third time out of the past four years and the second year in a row that Porsche's quintessential sports car has taken top honors. Porsche as a brand sits in seventh place (162) just behind Lexus (159) and ahead of Dodge (166). At the very bottom of the list is Land Rover with a dismal score of 284; the SUV specialist held the same unfortunate distinction on last year's list. Ram (266), Volvo (256), Alfa Romeo (245) and Acura (244) also performed poorly. The overall industry average score sits at 192 — mass market brands average a score of 190 while premium brands sit 14 points lower at 204. While Tesla is unofficially included in some of J.D. Power's results, the agency says the sample size it has access to for this study is too small to include. As has been the case for the past several years, infotainment systems dominate the list of problems reported by owners. Popular (or unpopular, depending on your point of view) complaints include built-in voice recognition (8.3 PP100), Android Auto/Apple CarPlay connectivity (5.4 PP100), built-in Bluetooth system (4.5 PP100), not enough power plugs/USB ports (4.2 PP100), navigation systems difficult to understand/use (3.7 PP100), touchscreen/display screen (3.6 PP100), and navigation system inaccurate/outdated map (3.6 PP100). While problems with the car's infotainment and technology packages are indeed bothersome, it's important to remember that such issues aren't usually leaving owners stranded with an immovable vehicle like a broken transmission or blown engine would. Culling infotainment complaints from the results would reduce the average problem-per-100-vehicle score by a staggering 51.9 points. The vehicles included in this study are from the 2019 model year. That means owners have had three years to get to know their cars and trucks. It's the 33rd year that J.D.
Hyundai's battle plan: More crossovers, no more Azera
Thu, Jan 28 2016We're living in a crossover world, and Hyundai is open about the fact that it's been struggling to meet demand for its utility models. Without production constraints, says Hyundai Motor America CEO Dave Zuchowski, the Tucson compact crossover would be outselling Hyundai's perennial volume model, the Elantra. There's a wide-reaching plan in place now to make sure Hyundai dealers are stocked with the models people want to buy. Step one involves upping output of existing models. Hyundai has brought tooling into its Montgomery, AL, factory to build Santa Fe Sport models alongside the Elantra and Sonata. (The bulk of Santa Fe Sport production takes place at the maxed-out facility in West Point, GA.) This will increase the model's annual production capacity by about 50,000 units. The new Tucson, which just went on sale last year, is being afforded an extra 50,000 or so units of capacity this year, which should put it ahead of the Elantra in the company's internal sales race. View 27 Photos The second part of the plan will bring new models. A B-segment crossover is in the works. This is a catch-up move to go up against several new models that seemingly popped out of nowhere: the Jeep Renegade, Fiat 500X, Honda HR-V, Mazda CX-3, Chevy Trax, and Nissan Juke. Toyota is the only other volume player still noticeably absent from, or at least not on the way to, this party, and that will be fixed with the next Scion model. The Genesis luxury brand has also promised crossover models, and we anticipate the engineers are doing all they can to get those to market as quickly as possible. Because Genesis models will be on platforms distinct from those Hyundai uses, it could be a couple years before the fancy utes land. When the lineup is filled out, bet on luxurious subcompact, compact, midsize, and fullsize crossovers. There's a good chance Genesis crossovers will outnumber its car models. As for the Hyundai brand's car models, remember the Azera? Neither does anyone else. Getting rid of this slow-selling sedan will help free up capacity as well as showroom space. The fullsize sedan is likely to continue on in other markets – specifically the home market, where it's called the Grandeur – but Hyundai Motors America won't go through the trouble of getting it ready to sell (or not sell) in the States any more.
Honda scores big in Automobile Advertising of the Year Awards [w/videos]
Wed, 15 Jan 2014This year the Detroit Auto Show didn't just celebrate the automobile, it celebrated how we find out about the automobile, too. Partnering The One Club, this year introduced the 2014 One Show Automobile Advertising of the Year Award to Cobo Hall, celebrating winners in five different categories of advertising: broadcast television, online, interactive, experiential, and print/outdoor. Winners in those categories were judged by 50 creative directors and journalists, while a Public Choice category was chosen from among nearly 20,000 online votes.
Honda walked off with three of the six awards, its Hands spot taking Broadcast honors, its Sound of Honda getting the Online category and Illusions winning Public Choice. Hyundai made the grade in Interactive with Driveway Decision Maker, Fiat captured Print/Outdoor with its "Letters" ad, and Toyota's Tundra Endeavor Campaign spot and BMW's A Window into the Near Future were co-winners for Experiential.
