My Third and Last Hyundai - A Lemon with Zero Support

This is my third Hyundai that I have purchased new, and also this is my last time purchasing any Hyundai in the future. This car has caused me an extreme inconvenience and I have been treated like all that I am is a finance account number. I purchased my Sonata on 7/5/25 and drove it four days to work that week. On 7/8, I experienced my first intermittent transmission slip - the car still will do this - under low to moderate acceleration, the transmission will not shift at the correct time, rev super high, and dump into the next gear. On 7/11, the car would not start and was towed to the dealership. On 7/16, I was told by the dealership that the battery was the cause of the no start and transmission issue of which they could not replicate. I brought the car home and tried to leave again on 7/20. It did not start again at 263 miles and was towed back to the dealership. On 7/24 the dealership finally agreed to fix the minor damage that the car had when I had purchased it. On 7/25, I picked up the car again. This time the brake switch had gone bad. The general manager of the Hyundai dealership finally called me after waiting at his dealership for a half hour, with each employee telling me a different time of when he would be back (an hour, a few hours, 15 minutes, and even a "he won't be in today"). This man and his service advisor basically said that there was nothing I could do and that he had only had one vehicle be lemon lawed in 20 years. After 10 days in service over two times, this general manager told me to bring the car back and to come in and get a loaner. There were no loaner cars available over the entire duration of my service visits, which caused me an extreme hardship and inconvenience with my job. Hyundai corporate will not complete a buyback or reimburse me for any of my inconveniences and money spent on rental cars to get me around. Hyundai corporate has stopped answering questions and will only say "please refer to your state's lemon law". So here I sit 8/5/25, with a proven unreliable vehicle, lost wages from missing days and lost money from having to get a rental car, waiting for this Sonata to eventually break again before 12,000 miles and/or 1 year so I can take this case to a lemon law attorney. Stay away from this brand or hope that you do not buy a brand new broken car.

Perfect Daily Driver

I bought my 2025 Hyundai Sonata SE Memorial Day weekend. I unfortunately had to replace my 2018 Hyundai Ioniq that decided it wanted to retire in Florida. The Sonata is a great car, it’s roomy, decently powerful, and has lots of nice standard features. It’s also got a great exterior design that stands out from other sedans IMO. The price for the car was a little high but not bad. The only features I wish the SE mod had that it doesn’t are dual climate control and rear AC vents. For almost $30,000 you’d figure it would have both of those things. It’s relatively quiet, handles well and has decent power. It’s a great daily driver and I get around 35-36 mpg on average with a mix of city and highway driving.

Good car, great value, with a few manageable quirks.

Great Performance. Comfortable driver seat, especially with bolster feature. Transmission at low speeds can be quirky trying to determine what gear to choose. Irritates me.

Love the vehicle

Wanted the Limited, but it was only offered in Hybrid, which I did not need. Very disappointing. Have the SEL-Convenience model - No air conditioning vents in rear of vehicle - all cooling to back seat comes from front vents. Poor design.

Too small

It's too small & no room to move inside, the middle console blocks you from turning to look in back.

Problem

I had a bad battery with less than 60 miles and now my boost gauge to my turbo is not working with 1400 miles only, this is the first time I've seen such problems with any vehicle within the first few months of purchase. Cheap product and I regret buying this car. Hyundai today is not what it use to be

SONATA 2025

Glad this model now has all wheel drive. Wasn't happy with the 2023 model I just traded in that had buttons on the console in order to shift gears. In two years I never got used to it. Now the 2025 has a mechanism on the steering column, which I haven't used for years and need to get used to that. Who is making these decisions??? I literally have to move the steering wheel to see through it and view the "mechanism" to place the car in the correct gear. Hate it. As with the 2023, the 2025 engine races as soon as you press down on the gas peddle. On the 2025, I haven't been able to figure out the Navigation system. This will be my last Hyundai.
