Hyundai Sonata long term review (100K miles)

[@Alvica414]

I have a 2015 hyundai sonata with 183k miles. I bought it used at 83,333 miles and safe to say it is pretty reliable. The only downside is the electric problems that popped up months after I bought it. Overall no serious issues.

[@dougn2350]

What sort of electric problems ?

[@chaselesser3191]

Does your smoke a little when trying to pass someone and you have to accelerate quickly?

[@Alvica414]

@@dougn2350 sorry just found my logins to this account, I had several sensors go off (TPMS, Lane assist, FCW System and Highbeam sensor) they all went off at the same time so it must be something that they connect to.

[@Alvica414]

@@chaselesser3191 it does not, if yours does that I would recommend taking it to get looked at professionally.

[@nichollle732]

That's quite impressive. What maintenance routine did you do? What kind of oil do you use, and what mile do you change the oil?

[@RobertReagin-j7q]

I have 275,000 plus miles on my 2016. Runs great. Gets 34 mpg. Other than tires, brake pads, oil and filters plus the serpentine belt it is all totally original.

[@ZOHAN1989]

They’re great cars if you take care of them. I regret selling this one. The newer ones aren’t that much of an upgrade.

[@GLSmith1013]

I had this same exact car, color and all. Brought it brand new in 2016, even though it was a 2015. Orange is my favorite color and I loved that car. Unfortunately in 2017, some idiot didn't yield to oncoming traffic before turning in front of me and the insurance company totaled it out. Since that was the only year that color was made, I couldn't get another exact match.

[@ZOHAN1989]

Sorry you lost your car. I sold this one few months after making this video and i shouldn’t have done that. The newer ones are smaller and have less power.

[@GLSmith1013]

@@ZOHAN1989 I agree unless you get the N Line but that still doesn't have all the features that the 2015 Limited Sport had. If they took the current Limited and added the 2.5 turbo and gave it the quad exhaust I would junp on that. But Hyundai makes you pick between luxury or power with the Sonata these days. The luxury trim lacks power and the powerful trim lacks luxury.

[@dougn2350]

My 2021 Sonata SEL will hit 100,000 miles in 2 years. Yeah I drive a lot. It now has 61k and no problems runs n drives like new. Update May 2024: I'm now at 77,500 and still runs n drives great. Uses no oil.

[@ZOHAN1989]

I upgraded to a 2021 sonata limited and already at 71k miles. Will hit 100k probably by mid next year.

[@georgemccants8647]

I bought mine with 94,000 on it has 110 on it now has pretty good power and gets great gas mileage

[@xiaotic8015]

how is it now?

[@D408-v5s]

Just bought the regular sport version on Friday ! Came from a 01 Honda accord lol . I’m in love with the Hyundai

[@DominusDionysos]

Hope you bought a 2019 version. These models(2015-2019) are junk.

[@georgemccants8647]

I’ve added oil to mine also now that you mention it

[@erlanverdugo3308]

I have the 2015 2.0T with 188394 miles on it and still runs good plusi have a heavy foot. 😅

[@anobodyonyoutubesaid]

Good to know just bought one with 77k miles on it. Looking forward to being a owner

[@sctorani2]

did you do maintenance yourself? or dealer?

[@mohanraja8589]

I have same exact car 2015 Hyundai Sonata 2.0T but my car engine died at 1,30,821 miles and my Hyundai dealer told me that my car was qualified for new engine and im happy with that.

[@J.Y_Z33]

Would you recommend a 2014 Hyundai Sonata SE? I heard some bad things about it but not sure if it’s more about maintenance or just how the car was designed.

[@kevinjohnson2055]

Don’t get it I have a 2016

[@kodyroderick8429]

Same don’t get it

[@granhustle]

I wouldn't recommend an SE anything

[@gbaby3180]

disappointed you spent more than half the video rambling about stuff that nb cares about. we wanted to know the stuff that we can’t see(how the car runs )

[@nichollle732]

Why are you complaining?? You should have done your own video to show how it runs. KZbin is free. STOP COMPLAINING AT LEAST.

[@snlkrd5200]

I have my sonata sport 2015 I bought it 0 miles now it is 181,000 miles is good but burn 🔥 oil a decent amount because I drive 8 hour every day

[@LawezeanaS197]

You getting a refurbished long or short block whatever they see fit i already been down that road i had to pay so i ended with a new long block so they say but it comes with all the internals everything else stays the same alternator etc...i have a 139k on mind's its a decent car for what it is but im already dealing with oil burning issues after 12k on new engine and regular maintenance at the dealership just get another car if you can i brought me a nice little 2014 v6 mustang just in case my car mess up again

[@crazikidgaming5326]

how did you know that your car was burning oil and what dealer did you take it to

[@Madraxoo]

Bro do u have link for the steering wheel?

[@tommyhoneycutt-ei2ic]

I think Kia and Hyundai mage great cars

[@georgemccants8647]

I have the sonata sport 2.4

[@DAN-lo5db]

Me too and I haven't had any issues on my 2017 sonata limited

[@PHILLIPS8822]

A vehicle that burns a quart of oil every 1000 miles and has to have a new engine installed is not a reliable vehicle. My 2017 Corolla has 140,000 miles and doesn't burn a drop of oil that's what you call a reliable vehicle

[@mikeythesquid1427]

Everything i hear about Hyundai and Kia says run the other way. They have a bad rep, but i don't know if it is deserved.

[@mamadee66]

I know right, I'm an older female I know a lil something Abt cars, I've been Uber/ Lyft in my( 2016) for 5 months now, I normally drive 5-6 hrs B4 taking breaks n I normally go for allotted driving time of 12hrs, it definitely burns oil, but these newer cars don't tick like older cars did when oil was low, a can randomly pops up on dashboard & I have to catch it, now the can did stay on, but either way it's completely out of oil, so I just add $3.99 corner store oil. I changed it over to 30/40 weight oil, no major work, a sensor in my pedal which slows acceleration it's $300 to fix, but my mechanic erased the codes 2-3 times...I LOVE THAT MAN😂, from here on Imma put gas treatment monthly, I've added Lucas Oil stabilizer but not all in one time, changed air filter n wrote milage on it, Imma change oil filter since getting an oil change is pointless in mine eyes cuz I'm adding oil weekly.

[@iamgodknows]

Wanna sell?

[@ZOHAN1989]

Already sold

[@faustinakhissi6126]

Sell it to me

[@actakumi7561]

Worst engine ever! no matter how new and cool and nice it looks
