   my 08 sonata is a piece of crap

   Do yourself a huge favor, pay a tiny bit more and get a Honda.
   My 08 Sonata is extremely unreliable. I died twice on a major hwy going 60 MPH. I was standing there, cars shooting by me, could have been killed. My brakes deterioriated complete down to the rotors at 18,000 miles.
   They told me it was normal & I had to pay.
   Meanwhile my 05 Oddessy with 45,000 miles still doesnt need brakes & my husbands 03 Acura TL only needed brakes at 50,000.
   This car is disgusting, havent had one this bad since the American cars in the 70's.
   Lucky I only leased it. Cant wait till the lease is up so I can give them back their piece of crap!!

   Mr

   We have a Sonata and it is great. No problems. The comments by G.R. are suspect for a ruse.

   Buyer be- ware... My 2008 Sonata rear window spontaneously shattered when I closed the driver side door getting in to drive. Hyundai refused to acknowledge this was a glass defect. Could have caused severe injury to my passengers, so glad no one was in the back seat. I was quite traumatized as well. Stay away from this car.

   p.s. here's my case # at Hyundai customer service, 3669287. Look it up by calling Hyundai customer service @ 800-633-5151.

   8/28/09...6:50a.m. driving I476 North, Haverford Twp., PA, my sunroof shattered, unprovoked, sounded like a gunshot in my brand new 2009 (muileage at time of incident: 199!) Elantra Touring. Weather: 70F, raining. Thought someone dropped a bowling ball off an overpass, but...no overpass in sight. At first, Hyundai Service Mgr, insisted must have been a rock, but after I looked at him real hard, he conceded & I am currently driving a "loaner" while they order in new glass. I will keep documentation, in case I need to argue defective construction. Seems to be an issue with foreign vehicles/
