Quality Of Hyundai

what can you guys say or comment on the quality of hyundai cars or parts?

I've no problems with Hyundai vehicles. The quality is pretty much at par with industry standards.

Aftersales service in most dealerships is ok. In most branches, you don't even have to fall in line as you would in the more 'popular' brands like Honda and Toyota because the volume of vehicles being serviced is not that big.

Parts are sourced from different Korean and Japanse companies (Mando, Aisin, etc.). I think Hyundai calls their genuine parts 'Mobis'. There are also numerous third party replacement parts and services available.

Hmmm... can't really say. Madalang ang may magpagawa sa shop (or maybe its because talagang kakaunti lang yung mga may Hyundai). Now, either konti lang talaga ang bumibili or maaari din namang kaunti lang talaga ang nagpapaayos kasi hindi sirain.

The new Hyundais? Pretty good, I might say. I'm quite happy with my 2006 Sonata GLS V6.

tires lang ang hindi maganda pero hindi naman Hyundai ang may gawa nito kundi khumho tires. palitan mo na lang ito ng magandang brand bago magbitak-bitak ito.

nice ride dud!

OT: Pekto, is the stock mags 17's? It looks like 16's for me!? or just bcoz of a huge body kaya di halata?

They are 16's. My wife liked the softer ride of the 16's compared to the thinner tires of the 17's. The 2007 models will have 17" alloys standard. I mean it's not like I'm going to take it racing or anything.

It's my first Hyundai and judgement is still out on it as far as quality. But in a year and a half of ownership, not a single thing has gone wrong and we both like its acceleration and overtaking ability which is just about a dead heat with the current Accord sedan V6.

personally, hyundai has caught up with its japanese rivals. like what otep said, it's pretty much at par with industry standards. i'd say, it might not be at par with toyota or honda, but it's very darn close to it.

thanks to HARI, there are casas and there is an abundance of parts for hyundais. of course, as in the case of many casas, mas mahal ang service at parts. but there are replacement parts already.

the future does look bright for hyundai. i hope they don't get complacent.

I don't like the storage bin below the radio on the new Starex. Everytime I have to accelerate suddenly in order to overtake, all the stuff falls out

I keep that slot empty. Mukhang 'makalat' kapag may laman, eh. The door pockets are also empty (pranela lang ang nakaladay dun sa driver's side). The glovebox has a map. All vehicle documentation go under the seat. Feeling ko kasi parang 'brand new' kapag walang mga laman at abubot. hehehe.

OT: Ay naku, wait 'til you have a wife and kids and then tell me you can still keep your van free from clutter

ive driven and rode some of the current hyundai models and what i can say is that build and even fit and finish is superb ! even besting the other japanese competitors .... sulit talaga mga hyundai nwadays .. the only problem is for people to accept that driving a hyundai andbeing ashamed is a thing of the past
