Yes the dealer service lead told me to keep my 5.7 V8 Yota and stay away from v6 turbo. They are full of metal in the oil pan and backed up waiting forreplacement parts. Owners are out of luck with no help for overpriced tundras
Okay but to be fair what you’re dealing with there is 3 decades of solid engines with one boo boo compared to a company that’s had many engines of several varieties grenade themselves
Your problem with Hyundai is that they are made in America. In Australia we get our Hyundais from South Korea and they just go and go and go. In our family we have had about 8 of them and never spent a penny on anything other than fuel, oil, and consumable items like tyres and brakes. That's it. They never brake down, they don't burn oil. I've never heard of anyone even replacing a radiator. The issue is all about American quality control. Physician heal thyself!
Our Kia here in Australia runs like a watch - 2 litre petrol engine - uses no oil between services. Very popular here. My mechanic even bought one for his wife, and he HATES working on his own cars.
@@GF-mf7ml Complete unmitigated FALSEHOOD. It was a Korean engineer in Korea who initially blew the whistle on Korean cars in Korea blowing up and catching on fire. You can search and watch the KOREAN news person reading the news in KOREAN about cars in KOREA blowing up. Get it yet? The engine that replaced the blown up engine in my Tuscon was replaced under warranty with a brand new engine shipped in from KOREA that blew up 11 months later. The made in America problem is just gaslighting from the KOREAN company that is absolutely aware of the utter trashness of the THETA platform, and refuses to do anything about it.
Just goes to show, if you properly maintain your vehicle, it’ll last forever. My dad has had an ‘88 Lincoln Town Car that he bought twenty years ago that he’s the second owner of and it’s still in immaculate condition aside from a worn driver seat and still runs like a top.
Toyota is having troubles with the v6 truck turbos, and I heard yesterday that thèir 3 cylinder engine in the Corolla GR is having troubles also. Toyota needs to get back to basics. May God bless everyone 🙏
@@billybarnes9208 things were the best when they were true imports from Japan. When I lived in Japan, the vehicles were so much more reliable, lighter, better fuel mileage and smaller engines. Their little four cylinder turbo diesels and whatnot that they had in the Mitsubishi Delicas, and in their little SUV that looked like an 90s s10 blazer, were ridiculously powerful and couldn't even hear them.
I have the same car (same color even), but it’s a 2011. It has 211k miles. Hyundai put a new engine in it at 143k (burning oil). Have had to replace the shift solenoid and the neutral safety switch just in the past month. I think I got my money’s worth since I only paid $17,700 for it. My wife has a 2017 Santa Fe with 202k. No issues.
I have a 2004 Elantra GLS, one of the gold colored. 208,000 miles and still running strong, no oil burning, replaced timing belt at 150,000 and still looked good. Shame it's rotted so bad, Long island car. The stories that car could tell, greatest accomplishments chariot for my 2 passed wives through their cancer battles.
That is sad to read of your losing 2 wives! Some of us have never found 1 good yet. Hate cancer! Lost 2 good mechanically inclined neighbors who helped me out many times. Soon to lose another due to prostrate cancer. My state Oregon is going the crummy way of salting the roads! As I`m retired I plan on just not driving when the roads are salted. My old trucks are still in 1 piece even after 54+ & 40+ years on the road as Oregon had not used salt in past years. When you have a vehicle that has gone through thick & thin with you don`t really want to get rid of it. At 1 point I lived in my 84 S10 P/U during 1 summer during Oregon`s BIG recession of the early 80`s when Oregon actually lost almost 500,000 people because of no jobs.
If you want to drive a KIA or Hyundai get one made in South Korea, get it new, and maintain it like you paid $100k with best oil, PEA fuel additives and top tier gas. Also, park them in a garage. Asked me how I know.
$44000 for a vehicle now days is average cost. Car and Driver keeps showing me 80,000 dollar electric cars and telling me how much I'll save on gasoline.
The entire business world is just gouging the consumer anymore. There isn't anyway I would pay $44 grand for any car especially the disposable junk they sell new today. I'll keep my nearly 30 year old Honda Accord and VW Golf and smile for another decade or so.

And many of them will sit on dealer lots. I'll be buying used at those prices and waiting till they figure out we don't need all the stupid crap they put on cars these days. It's a depreciating asset to go places, not a Taj Mahal.
Hey Scotty, my first car was a straight 6 four door brown ford Maverick that my Mom paid 300 buck for. That thing was a tank! It drank oil and trans fluid on a regular basis but never let me down, even in the snow belt blizzards I put chains on the back and it would go anywhere! Loved that car.
Hey Scotty, I got to tell you I bought a 2013 Kia Sportage in November 2012 and I’ve heard nothing but people having issues with 11, 12 and 13. In November, I’ve had this car for 12 years and it runs smooth drives smooth and I’ve got 298,000 miles on it. Oil gets changed by myself at 5 to 6000 miles then I use Quaker state full synthetic. I’ve had to replace starter alternator water pump and a timing cover because my studs for the motor mount broke but other than that no problems
I owned a 2009 Elantra, with 211,000 miles until a rainy night, and a deer 🦌 decided to run straight into the side of my car. SMH. I never had any issues with it at all.😊
The best value I’ve gotten for any vehicle was a used 2000 Hyundai with 200k miles for $2,000. It was a very clean and smooth running vehicle until I totaled it lol
My mother bought a 2012 Hyundai Sonata new.. and after 12 years its has been great with zero problems. She has the base model GLS and has over 100 thousand miles. It doesn't burn any oil and its all orginial .. 2012 was a good year. The only proble m she ever had was a radio that doesn't work. One of my own cars is a 17 Hyundai Tucson Limitied AWD Dual Clutch with 135k miles , bought new .. and never had a problem with it , never ...another good Hyundai .
@@ernestgirard9457 nothing new for chevy or dodge. Also at least Toyota is having teething issues on engines that are "brand new", not *still having issues on old developments like Hyundai/Kia.
ive had two hyundais back to back and other than routine maintenance ive not had issues with mines .. all vehicles have to be maintained .. does not matter if its a mercedes . nissan , chevy , hyundai ... take care of them and you wont have the issues you outlined
I have a 2012 KIA Optima with a 2.4 and It doesn't burn any oil and has no rattles and feels as new driving it as the day I bought it in 2012. I've only replace the brakes and rotors with a good set of cross drilled and slotted. The only major repair I had to pay for is the High pressure fuel pump failed internally and I caught that when I was checking the oil. something I do regularly. KIA replaced My engine with 80,000 KM on it after it failed a sound test looking for the dreaded bearing damage. I was Shocked when it failed because I was Having no problems with it. The engine was replaced within the same week as the test and have had no issues with it . when they replaced it the warranty was extended to the life of the car for that issue. I'm not sure that is the same down in the states but it is up here in Canada. Note My Optima was made in South Korea
I have a 2014 Sonata. Engine blown at 48,000 miles, dash board cracked all over the place, numerous recalls and problems. My brother has a 2015 Sonata and his motor seized at 42,000 miles. Friend of mine 2013 Sonata also blew up under 50,000 miles. They give you a pretty turd.
Absolutely goddam right. Mine blew ate 150 K km. Neighbours santa fe engine rings worn down just out of warranty. Second engine blew 11 months after the first. GARBAGE GARBAGE GARBAGE.
@@bigguy589 Yeah. Right. 100% dealer performed maintenance by the owners manual schedule. Scamming me. Uh huh. Me, and every single person I know who owns one of these cars, and they have all blown up, bad maintenance. Got it.
I have a 2015 lpg (built in SK). Driven 90k KM. It had 480k before I bought. It drives well. Maybe engine was worked on before, I am not sure, but am bery happy with it so far (3.5 years)
My 2011 Forte SX 2.4 is still running at 133000m...doesn't lose any oil between changes at 4k. I took it in for the ABS fuse recall and they broke one of the studs that hold the fuse in...Kia now is replacing the under hood fuse box because the stud is part of the box!
I have a 2005 Hyundai Santa Fe with 200,000km and it runs like a dream. V6 engine and have only had to replace starter, battery, brakes and regular oil changes
2008 Hyundai Azera with the 3.8 Lamda. 120,000 miles. Had to replace one of the Oil pressure valves/switches at 80K. The rear one that you must pull the intake manifold to r & r it. Replacing HVAC air flow actuator now. The car rides like new.
I have had number of hyundai/kia cars and I still love them. They've been fantastic to me. So I'm a fellow lucky guy. My sisters last 3 cars same. My brother just bought a genesis, it's too new to know anything. Hope it works out
My mom has a 2013 hyundai elantra base model it never had any major issues like engine problems or anything like that, and it is 160,000 miles on it. Are they really that bad of a car company?
2011 Sonata owner. 180k miles. Burns oil so I top it off once between oil changes. And I had to replace the cat converter. Other than that only routine maintenance since owning the car in 2010.
My wife must be even luckier. She has a 2013 Sonata with 203k miles that she's been the sole owner of and it runs great. We've only ever had to change brakes and oil.
I'm old enough to remember when Hyundai first came to America, you could buy a brand new one for as little as $6k and they didn't blow up! They have definitely been Americanized with low quality for high prices!😄😄😋
The 2007 to 2012 Santa Fe's... just no... do not touch. I could put a list of reasons, but I will stick to one major issue, you have to remove the rear axle to replace a wheel bearing because the external ABS wheel is in the way of the 4 bolts. It makes a guy want to pack up the tools for the day.
I GOT MONEY AND I WANT A NEW CAR SO BAD BUT MY 2010 HYUNDAI SONATA WON'T STOP RUNNING IT'S QUIET AIR WORKS HEAT WORKS SOUND SYSTEM BAGGING EVERYTHING WORKS ON THE CAR IT'S DRIVING ME CRAZY I WANT A NEW CAR DAMN IT I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO THAT CAR HAS SPOILED ME ROTTEN
My mother has a 2013 Hyundai Accent and it has about 120k, and she bought it brand new and this car is going strong and she has never had any major issues with her car
Hyundai and kia are very popular in gcc countries. They even use it as taxi fleet on a 50 degree summer sun and 500k km mileage is just normal.Haven't heard any of these problems here.
Like I’ve seen in the comments it seems if you maintain the car a lot of times they can last. I’ve got a 2013 Ford Focus with the automatic transmission which I know Scotty doesn’t care for according to one of his older videos. I’m a little over 187,000 miles getting about 36.3mpg. Don’t know that it uses any oil. Been using high mileage oil since about 75k. As he said I know what I’ve got with this car so I keep fixing it. Just had to get 2 shocks on the rear, a couple of tires and got the ac recharged. But at this mileage I figure you expect something:)
I had a 2010 Kia Soul that ran perfectly until I traded it in this year. It even lasted thru my kid owning it during his college years. Must've been made in Korea.
That looks like my Ford Fiesta. 2012 model. 1.6 L 4 banger. Starts, runs, and races. Just the stupid emissions. One more year......clock says it was builtr in 2011. I'll keep it until I pass away. Only 68,000 miles on it now. Too cheap to sell.😃
It was 2011-2014 that had the recall.. I lost the engine while I was on the highway. I'm lucky to be here and I was more fortunate to get it off my credit report
I told my mom don’t get an Hyundai suv but she did anyways brand new Tucson 2023 80 k on it now since 2022 -_- So far nothing just oil changes Filters No big problems fingers crossed .
I'd love to know what Scotty thinks of a 04 Ford mustang... im not really a car guy but i got a decent deal on this car and it only seems to need some minor work. I'd love to know some tips i could use to keep my engine lasting the longest i could get it to. Should i use gum out or seafoam just to keep up with my engine cleaning? any response is very welcome thank you all!
In 2024 I don’t think there’s a vehicle that comes with a regular transmission anymore it’s a manual transmission or some form of a cvt. Which means twenty years from now we will so be driving a vehicle with some form of a cvt in it. It’s sad but true.
Yes my daughters 2013 Hyundai Santa sport engine seized at 65k while going to pick up a pizza. Fortunately Hyundai replaced with new engine and turbo no cost but took 10 weeks
@@mrgarrison3516 my wife ended up picking it up and by the time the tow truck came it was like a brick. Unfortunately Hyundai would NOT reimburse us for the pie🤣🤣🤣
JATCO is affiliated to Nissan - not Hyundai or Kia. Hyundai and Kia introduced their iVT in mid 2020. Before that pretty much exclusively 6 speed tried and true automatic.
Was a huge Toyota fanboy until the last 2 years when the idiots in charge decided to go with small turbo engines in their trucks and SUV’s. Lo and behold, they’re breaking and blowing up all over the place. Probably the least reliable, least practical vehicles now being sold. I would buy a Nissan Frontier before I’d buy a new Tacoma, and a Titan before I bought a Tundra. Absolute garbage and hugely disappointed in Toyota.
The Indiana Highway Patrol had to remove at least 30 new Dodge Durango Police Enforcer cruisers for engines blowing up with no explanation or solution from Stelantis
It comes with 100k drivetrain warranty, on my second one no issues whatsoever. I’ve had all makes , take care of it it will last a long time . They have come a long way in the past 30 years! I was wary at one time , not anymore!👍
My brother's Hyundai Excel engine blew up back in the early 1990's after burning all the oil. The funniest thing is that thing was like a golf cart, I tried to stay away far from it because I had a Camaro. I remember he jammed on the brakes at a light and we just started busting out laughing at the noise it's tires made screeching. I popped 2 of the little tires, both on pot holes just driving down the road, lol. What an absolute joke. It's experiences like that that wreck future customers, because I would never, ever, buy a Hyundai. Glad to hear some years engines didn't seize up burning oil on their cars.
Every car company has issues at one time or another . That's not going to change as long as human beings are involved . I have a 23 Palisade and it has been a superb vehicle , however it is their flagship vehicle that is sold world wide that they have more than likely invested billions in developing ...
Have you seen the issues with all popular car brands in the last few years? Almost nobody has quality control anymore, and they are trying to mask the issues by adding tons of unnecessary "comfort and convenience" items to entice buyers. Seriously, why is Dodge putting a 1o-inch screen in the dash directly in front of the front passenger that displays they same info as the screen in the cluster display and the center display? And everyone is pumping out new tiny turbo engines with no proven history of reliability. At least Hyundai/Kia offer a 100k powertrain warranty. The only Hyundai products I ever owned that were technically a piece of crap was an 88 Excel and a 92 Excel, and they still lasted 10 years without major issues.
@@jp1087 It has a lot to do with the various rules and regulations in the USA now in Australia we get the same makes of cars apart from some USA built vehicles and there is one brand the USA don't get is Suzuki's and fortunately we get them in Australia and we own a Suzuki Baleno there is no stupid engine cover and only port injection also the Beleno gets imperial over 50 mpg on the highway and that's with Port injection
The Sonota luckily is their more luxury car (sitting just above the Elantra) so the Sonota is closer to the Camry probably, but for $19k you could probably still get a base model Corolla if you wanted something new, but cheap. I'd say IF you are buying a Kia or especially a Hyundai or Nissan, it may be a good idea to buy an extended warranty (like a 7 yr / 100k mile warranty) . It's one of the rare times I say it might actually pay for itself at some point....
I have a 2024 Sonata and so far it's fine. It has all the bells and whistles but I won't hook my phone to it, but my wife will. Up to 43mpg on the highway with a few miles getting to and from the highway of city driving. 8 speed DCT transmission. It is drive by wire though and it drives me nuts because when I take my foot off the gas, I want the car to start slowing down and this thing will hold speed for another 10 seconds. I can't say I recommend it unless you want lots of tech and a real automatic transmission for under $30k out the door about $27,500 before tax. A different hyundai place want $31k for a hybrid Blue Elantra I need to go cruise their parking lot.🤪

I have a 2012 KIA Optima with a 2.4 and It doesn't burn any oil and has no rattles and feels as new driving it as the day I bought it in 2012. I've only replace the brakes and rotors with a good set of cross drilled and slotted. The only major repair I had to pay for is the High pressure fuel pump failed internally and I caught that when I was checking the oil. something I do regularly. KIA replaced My engine with 80,000 KM on it after it failed a sound test looking for the dreaded bearing damage. I was Shocked when it failed because I was Having no problems with it. The engine was replaced within the same week as the test and have had no issues with it . when they replaced it the warranty was extended to the life of the car for that issue. I'm not sure that is the same down in the states but it is up here in Canada. Note My Optima was made in South Korea
I have a 2014 Sonata. Engine blown at 48,000 miles, dash board cracked all over the place, numerous recalls and problems. My brother has a 2015 Sonata and his motor seized at 42,000 miles. Friend of mine 2013 Sonata also blew up under 50,000 miles. They give you a pretty turd.
Absolutely goddam right. Mine blew ate 150 K km. Neighbours santa fe engine rings worn down just out of warranty. Second engine blew 11 months after the first. GARBAGE GARBAGE GARBAGE.
I guess the 2012's are the best year .. trouble free cars 12 - Sonata
Try another garage for proper maintenance, they are scamming you
yours is the typical experience
@@bigguy589 Yeah. Right. 100% dealer performed maintenance by the owners manual schedule. Scamming me. Uh huh.
Me, and every single person I know who owns one of these cars, and they have all blown up, bad maintenance. Got it.
2012 Tucson here, best vehicle I've EVER owned in all of my 48 years! All I've ever done to it is replaced the battery and brake pads.
and oil hopefully :D
@@bn880 Yes, absolutely! 🤣👍🏻
I have a 2015 lpg (built in SK). Driven 90k KM. It had 480k before I bought. It drives well. Maybe engine was worked on before, I am not sure, but am bery happy with it so far (3.5 years)
My 2011 Forte SX 2.4 is still running at 133000m...doesn't lose any oil between changes at 4k. I took it in for the ABS fuse recall and they broke one of the studs that hold the fuse in...Kia now is replacing the under hood fuse box because the stud is part of the box!
I have a 2005 Hyundai Santa Fe with 200,000km and it runs like a dream. V6 engine and have only had to replace starter, battery, brakes and regular oil changes
2008 Hyundai Azera with the 3.8 Lamda. 120,000 miles. Had to replace one of the Oil pressure valves/switches at 80K. The rear one that you must pull the intake manifold to r & r it. Replacing HVAC air flow actuator now. The car rides like new.
Hey Scotty, how many cups of coffee do you drink a day??? Where do you get your energy?
Have a 2011 Santa Fe with 180k miles. Burns no oil. Is not a GDI., 3.5 V6 with MPI, 6 speed trani . Still gets 21 to 23 mpg oversll. Not bad 😁
Its strange that scotty is ranting about hyundai when toyota has a massive problem with the new V6 turbos
Next video.
Hyundai has been garbage for a long time. Toyota just started dropping the ball
He talked about it in the last video
I have had number of hyundai/kia cars and I still love them. They've been fantastic to me. So I'm a fellow lucky guy. My sisters last 3 cars same. My brother just bought a genesis, it's too new to know anything. Hope it works out
My mom has a 2013 hyundai elantra base model it never had any major issues like engine problems or anything like that, and it is 160,000 miles on it. Are they really that bad of a car company?
we have a 2006 Sonata and it still runs ... no major issues except brakes, tires wiper blades
Buying a car now days is a major gamble! Best to do some research before buying one.
Hyundai had reached their peak in 2012. They fell off a cliff after that.
That 5.0 engine is perfect. No issues 130k miles. Perfection at 429 horses too
I’m amazed that Hyundai doesn’t have a smaller version of the Sonata called the Sonatina… maybe just as well.
It's called the Elantra.
In Europe there is Accent and I10 and I20 and I30 as well
About 10 smaller versions around the world because people aren't as fat
Some people have fuzzy dice but Scotty has balls over the dashboard.😊
2011 Sonata owner. 180k miles. Burns oil so I top it off once between oil changes. And I had to replace the cat converter. Other than that only routine maintenance since owning the car in 2010.
I’ve had Hyundais for over a decade and never had a single issue. Absolutely love them
So nice to watch a feel good story in today's world.
Heck yeah ! He should keep that one!
My wife must be even luckier. She has a 2013 Sonata with 203k miles that she's been the sole owner of and it runs great. We've only ever had to change brakes and oil.
My nextdoor neighbor has a 2015 Sonata that just seized up this week due to sudden loss of oil pressure after 125,000 miles. Ran just fine until then!
Mine is close to 198000 still working....2015 sonata gls 2.4 but drinks oil like crazy ....checking it every tank full.
I'm old enough to remember when Hyundai first came to America, you could buy a brand new one for as little as $6k and they didn't blow up! They have definitely been Americanized with low quality for high prices!😄😄😋
Because they made OEM of Japanese cars.
2010 and newer hyundai cars are all have multiple problems.
I had one, it was craaaap
Same in the U.K. I remember seeing them in the mid 80s.
My 2017 Kia Sportage has 100,580 trouble free miles on it. Regular maintenance is the key.
The new Tacoma and tundra are having a cavalcade of issues but I guess it’s okay when they do it
Yes, Scotty you’re the only one that has the balls to say that Hyundai are not reliable
incoming harassments and trolling from Skorea.
i watch Skorean message board, they are furious.😂
at him speaking the truth 😆
We made the Sonata mistake in the early 2000’s…What a POS. 75% value loss in 18 months when we dumped it.
The 2007 to 2012 Santa Fe's... just no... do not touch. I could put a list of reasons, but I will stick to one major issue, you have to remove the rear axle to replace a wheel bearing because the external ABS wheel is in the way of the 4 bolts. It makes a guy want to pack up the tools for the day.
I GOT MONEY AND I WANT A NEW CAR SO BAD BUT MY 2010 HYUNDAI SONATA WON'T STOP RUNNING IT'S QUIET AIR WORKS HEAT WORKS SOUND SYSTEM BAGGING EVERYTHING WORKS ON THE CAR IT'S DRIVING ME CRAZY I WANT A NEW CAR DAMN IT I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO THAT CAR HAS SPOILED ME ROTTEN
I love all of my White brothers and sisters.
May God bless us all.
The Excel was great.
My mother has a 2013 Hyundai Accent and it has about 120k, and she bought it brand new and this car is going strong and she has never had any major issues with her car
Hyundai and kia are very popular in gcc countries. They even use it as taxi fleet on a 50 degree summer sun and 500k km mileage is just normal.Haven't heard any of these problems here.
Thank you for the honest review!
Like I’ve seen in the comments it seems if you maintain the car a lot of times they can last.
I’ve got a 2013 Ford Focus with the automatic transmission which I know Scotty doesn’t care for according to one of his older videos. I’m a little over 187,000 miles getting about 36.3mpg. Don’t know that it uses any oil. Been using high mileage oil since about 75k. As he said I know what I’ve got with this car so I keep fixing it. Just had to get 2 shocks on the rear, a couple of tires and got the ac recharged. But at this mileage I figure you expect something:)
My brothers 2016 sonatas converter went out 3 years after he bought it
got a 22 veloster N only thing poppin is my muffler
I had a 2010 Kia Soul that ran perfectly until I traded it in this year. It even lasted thru my kid owning it during his college years. Must've been made in Korea.
That looks like my Ford Fiesta. 2012 model. 1.6 L 4 banger. Starts, runs, and races. Just the stupid emissions. One more year......clock says it was builtr in 2011. I'll keep it until I pass away. Only 68,000 miles on it now. Too cheap to sell.😃
I remember Ford for many years and then it was Plymouth.. the big fury 3
I had a ‘73 Maverick. Straight 6 (well, it ran on 5 cyl.) Rust bucket. Upstate NY.
we've been with hyundai for 10 years. other than normal wear/tear, very happy with the cars.
We have a 2006 Sonata 3.3 V-6 with 165,000 miles on it with no problems yet.
Great info 😊
My 2013 Sonata has 118k, nothing done except oil changes, brakes and tires.
Look into changing the battery & transmission oil
@mrgarrison3516 yeah, the battery has been replaced, and a complete service done every 30k. But zero major repairs
Enterprise car rental had a bunch of these cars when I worked there they were decent... And people like them
Scotty, Toyota turbo engines are blowing up right now, have you heard it?
Hyundai and Kia and GM off and on can be labeled as makers that make +year 2000 LEMONS.
These sonatas are the ones that spontaneously catch fire while driving wouldn’t touch with a 10ft pole
It was 2011-2014 that had the recall.. I lost the engine while I was on the highway. I'm lucky to be here and I was more fortunate to get it off my credit report
Another great show
Toyota has the exact same issue with metal in the oil, Scotty!
The initial quality of my 2023 Kia Forte GT Line has exceeded anything I've had from Chevy, Ford, and Chrysler.
They are still blowing up. They run out of oil somehow but there's no warning before it goes boom.
I remember my parents mom always got the new car dad was the old car
I have a 2018 sonata with 100k miles. It's been great! My 2018 suburban on the other hand...
I told my mom don’t get an Hyundai suv but she did anyways
brand new Tucson 2023 80 k on it now since 2022 -_-
So far nothing just oil changes
Filters
No big problems fingers crossed .
I'd love to know what Scotty thinks of a 04 Ford mustang... im not really a car guy but i got a decent deal on this car and it only seems to need some minor work. I'd love to know some tips i could use to keep my engine lasting the longest i could get it to. Should i use gum out or seafoam just to keep up with my engine cleaning? any response is very welcome thank you all!
In 2024 I don’t think there’s a vehicle that comes with a regular transmission anymore it’s a manual transmission or some form of a cvt. Which means twenty years from now we will so be driving a vehicle with some form of a cvt in it. It’s sad but true.
Yes my daughters 2013 Hyundai Santa sport engine seized at 65k while going to pick up a pizza. Fortunately Hyundai replaced with new engine and turbo no cost but took 10 weeks
What happened with the pizza?
@@mrgarrison3516 my wife ended up picking it up and by the time the tow truck came it was like a brick. Unfortunately Hyundai would NOT reimburse us for the pie🤣🤣🤣
@@porkchop4604
😞
Scotty is right about the cars being good back a decade ago. New ones can be good only with manual transmission.
JATCO is affiliated to Nissan - not Hyundai or Kia. Hyundai and Kia introduced their iVT in mid 2020. Before that pretty much exclusively 6 speed tried and true automatic.
Was a huge Toyota fanboy until the last 2 years when the idiots in charge decided to go with small turbo engines in their trucks and SUV’s. Lo and behold, they’re breaking and blowing up all over the place. Probably the least reliable, least practical vehicles now being sold. I would buy a Nissan Frontier before I’d buy a new Tacoma, and a Titan before I bought a Tundra. Absolute garbage and hugely disappointed in Toyota.
The Indiana Highway Patrol had to remove at least 30 new Dodge Durango Police Enforcer cruisers for engines blowing up with no explanation or solution from Stelantis
What happened after 2012 that they had to cut corners in the engine manufacturing department. Quite a mystery
It comes with 100k drivetrain warranty, on my second one no issues whatsoever. I’ve had all makes , take care of it it will last a long time . They have come a long way in the past 30 years! I was wary at one time , not anymore!👍
my 2017 sonata has 89000 and no engine problems unlike the new toyota v6
My brother's Hyundai Excel engine blew up back in the early 1990's after burning all the oil. The funniest thing is that thing was like a golf cart, I tried to stay away far from it because I had a Camaro. I remember he jammed on the brakes at a light and we just started busting out laughing at the noise it's tires made screeching. I popped 2 of the little tires, both on pot holes just driving down the road, lol. What an absolute joke. It's experiences like that that wreck future customers, because I would never, ever, buy a Hyundai. Glad to hear some years engines didn't seize up burning oil on their cars.
Hyundai a long, tradition of being CRAP
Had that same motor in 2012 Kia optima motor blew up🤦🏾♂️
? Hey Scotty ! What do you think about the Infiniti qx70 ? Thinking about buying one
Every car company has issues at one time or another . That's not going to change as long as human beings are involved . I have a 23 Palisade and it has been a superb vehicle , however it is their flagship vehicle that is sold world wide that they have more than likely invested billions in developing ...
He's only replaced brake pads and changed oil, but the steering code is attributed to replacement of the clock spring?
I’ve got a Kia - fingers crossed.
Buying a Hyundai or Kia it's a real gamble
Have you seen the issues with all popular car brands in the last few years? Almost nobody has quality control anymore, and they are trying to mask the issues by adding tons of unnecessary "comfort and convenience" items to entice buyers. Seriously, why is Dodge putting a 1o-inch screen in the dash directly in front of the front passenger that displays they same info as the screen in the cluster display and the center display? And everyone is pumping out new tiny turbo engines with no proven history of reliability. At least Hyundai/Kia offer a 100k powertrain warranty. The only Hyundai products I ever owned that were technically a piece of crap was an 88 Excel and a 92 Excel, and they still lasted 10 years without major issues.
@@jp1087 It has a lot to do with the various rules and regulations in the USA now in Australia we get the same makes of cars apart from some USA built vehicles and there is one brand the USA don't get is Suzuki's and fortunately we get them in Australia and we own a Suzuki Baleno there is no stupid engine cover and only port injection also the Beleno gets imperial over 50 mpg on the highway and that's with Port injection
I had a 1998 Hyundai sonata something was always going wrong with it. They have always been junk
The Sonota luckily is their more luxury car (sitting just above the Elantra) so the Sonota is closer to the Camry probably, but for $19k you could probably still get a base model Corolla if you wanted something new, but cheap.
I'd say IF you are buying a Kia or especially a Hyundai or Nissan, it may be a good idea to buy an extended warranty (like a 7 yr / 100k mile warranty) . It's one of the rare times I say it might actually pay for itself at some point....
Metal shards blowing up engines?? Scotty - you must be talking about the new Toyota 4 banger with the turbos.
Listen closely when you go by a Hyundai dealer lot.
You can hear them rusting
I have a 2024 Sonata and so far it's fine. It has all the bells and whistles but I won't hook my phone to it, but my wife will. Up to 43mpg on the highway with a few miles getting to and from the highway of city driving. 8 speed DCT transmission. It is drive by wire though and it drives me nuts because when I take my foot off the gas, I want the car to start slowing down and this thing will hold speed for another 10 seconds. I can't say I recommend it unless you want lots of tech and a real automatic transmission for under $30k out the door about $27,500 before tax. A different hyundai place want $31k for a hybrid Blue Elantra I need to go cruise their parking lot.🤪
