Great experience overall! Bought a preowned Sonata here from Wayne, and he made it painless. Free carwashes, oil changes, and he got me low rate financing. I would recommend Advantage Hyundai of Hicksville to anyone!

I recently bought a new Hyundai Santa Fe Sport Advantage Hyundai in Hicksville. The experience we had was nothing less than excellent. Everyone was pleasant and professional. I was greeted and welcomed by what seemed to be every employee that passed the desk. The atmosphere of the entire dealership was nothing like I`ve witnessed before when buying a car! I highly recommend Advantage Hyundai!

AVOID! Advantage Hyundai in Hicksville, NY AVOID!

ADVANTAGE HYUNDAI PUTTING PROFITS BEFORE CUSTOMER SAFETY OR HONORING THEIR WARRANTY Hicksville, New York - March 22, 2011 - Looking to buy a new car? Does you son or daughter need a good quality new or used automobile? Then you`ll probably want to AVOID! Advantage Hyundai at all costs. Having written an extensive article on the experience of Susan Mezzapesa of Levittown, N.Y. Advantage Hyundai dealership locate... view mored at 430 Plainview Rd in Hicksville, NY. truly lived up to their name and immediately took full advantage when they realized this customer lacked any real automobile knowledge. Advantage Hyundai sold her a 2007 Hyundai Sonata, but they failed to informed her that the car`s previous owner was Hertz Rent-A-Car. Hertz rented this car out to an unkown number of customers who then proceeded to drive almost 27,000 miles all in less than one year. Carfax shows that no maintenance was ever recorded on this car. When sold to Advantage Hyundai on 8/2007 in an auction. CarFax comments that Advantage Hyundai preformed an Oil and filter change, rotated 2 tires and preforming a so called "Maintanence Inspection" and it is noted on CarFax that they did indeed washed and detailed the automobile. Hyundai claims to do a 150 point inspection, when contacted for details and if this was done on this car, we were informed by them that "As per New York State laws we are only required to have the car pass a NYS Car Inspection" Hyundai claims when the car was brought in for service on 11/11/2010 the car was "Gunked" up so bad that they could not work on it and proceeded to do only a regular oil change. They informed Mrs. Mezzapesa she was at fault and Advantage Hyundai will gladly replace the engine for a fee of between $5,000 to $7,000. She refused the new engine offer and Advantage Hyundai failed to take any of a dozen steps to address this "Gunk" problem. Simply googeling "How to remove Car Engine Gunk" will show multiple ways that this problem could have been easily rectified. At no time did Advantage Hyundai inform this customer of the dangerous and possibly life threatening situation she was in. A car with an engine that was 100% guaranteed to seize at any moment could easily cause a loss of control if the vehicle was traveling at highway speeds or it could have left her standard during any number of snow storms that NY were hit with during this past winter. A seized engine will no longer produce heat and with temperatures well below zero, If rescuers were unable to reach her car due to snow filled streets this could have easily turned into a matter of life and death. This car`s engine seized in January of 2011. This is type of engine failure is covered under the Hyundai warranty, but Advantage Hyundai and Hyundai`s corp 1-800-663-5151 customer service line claimed because of missing or undocumented oil changes they were voiding the warranty. According to multiple source both outside and inside Advantage Hyundai the amount of Gunk inside the engine could never have been caused by a missed oil change. It is much more logical that this problem was caused by the wear and tear placed on the new car when it was driven almost 27,000 in less than one year by Hertz customers. Advantage Hyundai failed to address this engine issue and placed Mrs. Mezzapesa and her family at grave risk, because the warranty was only valid for 60,000 miles, and according to the CarFax records on 1/6/2011 the date of this cars last visit to Advantage Hyundai`s service department the mileage was 59,214.

ADVANTAGE HYUNDAI YOU MAKE THE CALL

Advantage Hyundai you make the call In my other posts I explained the situation with Hyundai,Basically here is the problem Our 2007 Hyundai`s engine seized because the cars engine was filled with sludge. Hyundai voided the warranty because they claim it was my wife`s fault for missing oil changes. That is true she had oil changes done outside of Hyundai but I told her without receipts it does not... view more count. My problem with Hyundai is according to my experience and also Mike (Hyundai`s service manager) and Pete (our Hyundai`s Rep) there is no way this amount of sludge could have been caused by her missing these oil changes. My beef is that this sludge was their the first day we bought it, they failed to tell us about Hertz and more importantly, Hyundai had the car on 11/2010 and the car was running. They took the time to pull the valve covers off and take a photo but did nothing else. No Flush No dropping the oil pan No additives NOTHING They simply told her she needs a new engine and it will cost $7,000 and they let her drive off the lot knowing that engine would seize and placed her life in harms way because she could have had an accident or got stranded in the middle of a blizzard Read the rest of the other ad for details Here is the new chapter I went to youtube and left mini comments about How Hyundai failed to disclose that the original owner of this car was Hertz and they put on about 27,000 in less than one year and that Buyers should get a CarFax before making any purchase. On one of these youtube videos an employee of Advantage Hyundai wrote this We at Advantage Hyundai offer the first oil change for FREE just to stress the importance of vehicle upkeep. THIS CUSTOMER NEVER ONCE REPORTED TO OUR DEALER, OR ANY OTHER SERVICE CENTER. When I responded you are liable for you lied and according to Hyundai`s records and documented by CarFax This car was bought with 27,000 miles on it and she came in for service on: 30,123 for a broken Water Pulley 32,848 for Inspection 33,697 For oil change 37,288 For Oil Change 41,746 for Oil change The ad all of a sudden showed that all the comments were Removed Unfortunately for Advantage Hyundai I have the email that YouTube sent me telling me about his comments and also the comments themselves So you make the call who is telling the truth?
