My problem is when a dishonest mechanic wants to fix a problem that doesn't exist. Example: replacing belts, bearings, tie rods, brake pads etc. when they are still in good working order. Many mechanics/dealers often recommend unnecessary repairs so they can make money.

Scotty you're spot on man, I work at Hyundai and have complained several times that an oil change interval of 7,000 miles is simply too long between oil changes, especially when people think they can still drive 2,000 over that! And surprise surprise when I check the oil and filter on these brand NEW cars, metal! Hyundai and Kia are shooting themselves in the foot by having to change out an engine instead of just giving out a few more 5k oil changes, instead of trying to be cheap and make them 7,000 miles out!

I have a 2019 Toyota Camry. The owner's manual says that the car can be driven 10,000 miles between oil changes, and they recommend oil changes at 10K miles. While the oil is still pretty clean looking at 5,000 miles, I change it at that point to be safe. I won't get to 6K miles before I change the oil. I know Camrys are awesome cars mechanically, and can run almost forever, but I don't trust 10K oil change intervals. Also, the oil life meter comes on around 4,400 to 4,600 miles after an oil change. So that is strange as well if the manual recommends 10K miles.

I own a 2011 Kia Sorento with over 250k on it now. Besides minor work due to wear and tear that I have done in the garage at home, zero issues. So many cars and trucks have passed through my possession over the years, and I am still absolutely surprised the old Kia Sorento has been the most reliable and durable. In my experience, every car brand will have serious issues with their car lines from time to time. And none of them will own up to the issues and properly take care of their customers. Despite doing your best research, buying a vehicle is unfortunately a very expensive roll of the dice - and a game most of us have to play.

My 2016 Hyundai Sonata leaked oil from the day we bought it brand new. After the engine blew at 140k miles, and I mean blew a hole in the side the size of my fist, they replaced the engine and it still leaked. They replaced the head gasket and it still leaked, took it back and they said nothing they could do because we'd put 10k miles on it since the new engine had been put in (we put 30k+ miles on our vehicles a year). Took it to another mechanic and he replaced the head gasket again. It still leaked, took it back and he found a leak on the oil pan. He fixed that free since he misdiagnosed the first time. That was 40k miles ago and there's not been a leak since. Never trust the Hyundai mechanics.

I bought 2 brand new kia Sorentos. First one was a 2018 and was a great car. Non turbo, we traded it in at 60k miles for a 2021 Sorrento with a turbo. The trans started slipping at 25k miles. It also had a problem where it would go into "limp" mode sometimes under boost when passing another car. They gave us the run around time and time again. Never fixed that car. I traded it for a F150 and couldn't be happier.

I believe Kia went downhill in quality around 2020. I have a 2011 Kia Sedona van w/168k barely any issues (one issue under warranty) and the Kia dealer still wants me to come trade in for a newer model. Gets good mpg 23 or so and is reliable. I think that in my experience Toyota, Honda and then Mazda is the top 3 non domestic brands, and still make them great & long lasting vehicles.

If the marks are broken the transmission housing has been opened. Tell your Hundya owner to do that before he takes it back for another transmission repair. Then check it for him. Another thing you can do right now is look at if the bolts have been worked on.

Cars are always good for a suprise. I live in Germany where most people have a different view on cars as Scotty or Americans have. But Toyota is seen as a reliable brand here as well. But for decades most Germans thought their brands were the best in the world, while american were unreliable gashogs. Well some are this way. I was the first one in our familiy, in fact the whole street, maybe the whole village, who bought an american car in the 90s. It was a 1996 Jeep Cherokee XJ, produced in the US but for europeuan market. And turbocharged Diesels were very popular these days. So it had a 2.5 Litre 115 HP turbo diesel from VM (italian motor company) which suprisingly had the same torque as the usual 4.0 litre six cylinder gas. I bought the Jeep in 1999 and drove it for 21 years. Finally the turbocharger broke down. I sold it, because diesel engines are now very expensive (680 Euro tax per year!) and it was not easy in the last years to get spare parts. I will never forget this go-anywhere american masterpiece. I drove it from Germany to the Trollstigen pass, from north to south Germany, used it for chopped wood, plaster stones, moving... All my friends bought 2 or 3 different cars (mostly German brands) in that time, as the cars broke down or make them unsatisfied. Even our family Mercedes Benz did not survived 19 years. That Jeep never burned oil.

In 2010 my wife and I bought a 2010 Hyundai Santa Fe. It had a long warranty and it came with a service contract, and our dealer experience was fantastic. We'd take it in for regular maintenance, no charge because of the service contract, and they would find and fix something that needed repair, no charge because it was under warranty. I did worry about what would happen after the warranty was over.

I agree. Forgot to mention ford and Chevy. After working at an oil shop I can confirm that even before 60k miles everyone's cars are knocking and banging even when they just bought off the dealership. Dealerships have idiots that drain the break in oil as soon as they get the brand new cars in and even if it has 200 miles on it they're putting their generic oil in it which around here is synthetic blend duramx oil even if the car needs full synthetic due to a turbo or supercharger. But I've never seen an American car perform properly in my life.

I had the hardest time with my outback with fuel delivery issues, waiting for it to throw a code and point me towards the problem. It ran like crap but never a code. It was very frustrating, I don't understand why I never got a code. Turns out the upstream O2 sensor was bad, so my fuel delivery was all over the place. Being patient and waiting for a code doesn't always work.

With 02 you don't normally get a code, you can unplug them and it'll run rich or lean whichever is the default and still get no code. Also 02 doesn't work when engine is cold. You look at the data when it works fine and use that for comparison. But sometimes it will just be really obviously offset or really obviously slow. Easiest way is just to swap it out and check mpg. Sometimes it's the maf sensor messing up how the 02 effects efficiency.

​@@georgekurgansky5986 For a long time I had a P0420, I figured the cat was bad because the previously failed headgasket sent coolant and oil out the exhaust. Later, I had fairly major fuel delivery issues, massive power drops/stumbling between 2000-3000 rpm. Replaced the pump and filter, worked better for one test drive, then issue returned. Cleaned fuel pressure regulater, same thing-- one good test, then crap. I took my Cats out and made sure they were clear and flowing- not clogged. I was so frustrated, Knowing it was some kind of fuel delivery issue that would temporarily get better. I replaced the O2 sensor on a whim. I knew it would effect fuel delivery, but didn't realize it could totally choke the fuel supply. With the new sensor it's been running great, and the p0420 is gone also. A side note: The same O2 sensor is used in cadallacs, nissans, volvos, a few more. Very easy to find.

Hello Scotty. The wife and I had purchased a 2015 KIA Optima LX with a 2.4 GDI Engine , 4cyl Automatic transmission. After about a week and a half , The car started eating Starters. The piece of crap took a Crap. At 135,000. Sent the car to the KIA Dealer and they said After having it at their Dealership for a couple of weeks , Did a Diagnostic test on it and they said the Engine was Done, Blown Engine. First they said it was Covered under warranty For Bearings. Then they said they wouldn't cover it because Nobody had started the process for the Recalls that were on this car. The Car lot where we had got it Did Not tell us that there were Any Recalls. The Car lot , KIA , And even the Financial place where the car was Financed Will Not cover this Junker even with GAP Insurance. I will NEVER again own Another JUNK KIA OR HYUNDAI. I'm Done with them !

Get a lawyer, here in the UK you'd be covered under consumer law. Hyundai would literally have to prove there was nothing wrong with the car when they sold it, regardless of the warranty. After six months it's up to the consumer to show a fault existed, and that lasts six years! I literally wouldn't let that go if I were you. Good luck.
