Hyundai Sonata Usados en Venta

My family bought this car used in 2005, and I inherited it in 2010. The air conditioner had gone out in 2008, but otherwise it didn't need any work beyond routine maintenance until 2012, when the electronics started to go seriously bad (instrument panel freezing, stereo not coming on, anti-lock brakes engaging themselves randomly), at which point I had to change the spark plugs and wires. I did it myself, and the valve cover was a nightmare to take off, though the job went smoothly once that was done. I was rear-ended two different times, and took only superficial damage.

The 2005 Hyundai Sonata has been a very decent car to drive and one of my best decisions I have ever made to purchase. I enjoyed the Sonata’s handling ability when it came to rugged roads filled with cracks and craters. Most of the time I would not be able to feel a thing. Also, the vehicle could accelerate to 80 miles per hour very easily for the first five years I owned it. Unfortunately, the Sonata’s acceleration ability slowly started to dwindle to where it would take it a while to accelerate. When I purchased the car the first thing that attracted me to it was the style. A semi-long car with unique headlights was the kind of car I was looking for at the time. For eight years the car performed very well. I only had two or three issues along the way for that eight year span, however, last year the 2005 Hyundai Sonata broke down at least ten times in 2014. It started with the radiator. Once the radiator broke, both engine coils broke, then the brakes went bad, the battery died, the O2 sensor, and the crankshaft position sensor went bad. All of these issues happened within a 7 month span. I literally felt I was in the shop every other weekend. However, once the crankshaft position sensor was repaired last December I have not had a problem with the car since. I routinely go in for oil changes and ask the mechanics to check for anything that may need repair. Accept for that major bump down the road the 2005 Hyundai Sonata has been very reliable for getting me from destination A to destination B.

I absolutely love my Hyundai Sonata! It handles the road and drives very well. Even after having the car for five years, with over 142,000 miles on it, I still have not had any major problems with it. Not to mention, it has a lot of great features that come standard with the car (i.e. Bluetooth hands-free calling). The size of the Hyundai Sonata is another feature that I love. It comfortably seats 5 adults and there's even tons of leg room in the back. The trunk is huge as well. I'm about 4'8 and can climb right in with no problems! With gas prices being so high, it's a great benefit that the Hyundai Sonata gets such great gas mileage. I can commute to work, run various errands, and still not have to fill up every week. I’ve noticed that there are lots of storage spaces in the car. There are spaces near the radio and dash area, sides of the front doors, and pockets on the back of the front seats to store miscellaneous items. There’s also 2 different size compartments in the arm rest for storing items that need to be hidden from the public eye.
