Scotty why do you use the Autel IM608 which is a automotive locksmith tool?
Hey Scotty I have a car, what should I do
I'm still ready and prepared to help take some of those tools your giving away off your hands. Your a great man Scotty!
Hey Scotty I bought a 2005 Honda pilot with 145,600 for 2,000 dollars was this a good deal.
Scotty Kilmer, I need help and can pay!! I have a 2016 cvt nissan sentra rs. I think my cvt is going out. Can you look at my car and see if it needs a new transmission? Nissan sent me a letter stating that the CV transmission and all of the components are covered up to 82,000 miles and I have 72000 miles on the car currently. Its currently shaking/sputtering when I accelerate. At 75 or 80 the speed drops down and rpms and then goes back to the original speed. Nissan said if it happens again on the highway to notify them because it'll send a code but it hasn't happened in about 2 months. But it's definitely getting worse when I go from a stopped position and try to accelerate it sputters a lot! Anyway I know you're busy but didn't know if you could help me! I'm a single dad with two boys LOL!
Bring your car to be serviced
Next day: I found the worst car ever made
HONESTY
hahaha
Lol
Yeh I know what you mean, but that does make him brutally honest lol my Mechanic down town tells you strait up if youve bought a lemon or not. its good in one way but bad in another you go home after youve been told the news and think ffs it cost me a lot to buy then you read the repair bill. LOL. one of my other cars was a lemon unfortunately warn out and we are still fixing it
Hey you want an honest mechanic even if the truth hurts 🤣
Not saying it's a quality car to begin with. But honestly, it looks like it was poorly maintained in general.
that thing was trashed lmao.
Excactly! that poor sonata was badly treated and overused without a single touch of maintenance. Scotty is exaggerating!!!!!, so I guess he became so WANTED by the Korean authorities. Lol.
I was looking at the steering wheel like whoever car that was just didn't care
@BBBBBBBBBBBefw no
And that makes a big difference and how you drive them too
Much respect to you Scotty, but I had a 2005 huundai Sonata for 12 years. I had no major problems out of him. I lost my guy to a major hail storm in Colorado.I was beyond pleased with his performance prior to his tragic demise
I also had for more and i had absolutely no problems
That $19K disposable car is almost 20 years old, I'd say someone got their money's worth out of it.
Paid 50k to keep it running
Not. The car is hideous and the ride quality matches the appearance. Worst 19k spent.
most of KIA Hyundai dealers make money form repair and financing . not selling cars.
And he said the odometer has not been working for years so the actual mileage is probably 160k to 180k at least and looks to not have had a lot of normal maintained and show me ANY car at that mileage that doesn't have problems.
you don't know much about cars
"Hey Scotty, fix my car so I can sell it easier."
Scotty: "Here's why you shouldn't buy my customer's car. "
my 2001 hyundai santa fe with 277k miles runs great, exterior and interior are in great shape because i actually take care of my car.....
Agree with you this car is not taken care of
Hyundai cars are poor mans Honda
@@maarioambel2005 good because i'm broke AF
@@maarioambel2005 your mom is a poor man's Honda
Hyundais and kias are well built....especially in the last 20 years
Some last longer than some Hondas
Especialky the shitty Honda automatics that fail
And the 5 speed manuals they built with poor 3rd gear syncros
Look at their car sales they keep increasing with time
fil1329 Loll
Owner: are you saying my sonata is a piece of s#!$@
Scotty: "There's no arguing that"
Owner: i knew it!!!
Scotty, most of the issues you mention are poor owner maintenance. My wife has a 2002 Hyundai Santa Fe with 184,000 miles. We have had to do more service work on it than our other cars but nothing really major. Still runs great and is reliable but we keep up on the maintenance. Paint still looks great considering she parks it outside a lot and washes it once a year if it's lucky -- and we live on a dirt road. But when she does wash it she protects the finish with a good wax. Not the best car but if the owner maintains it properly it will hold up.
🤡
they're junkers. Sure under the right conditions it can hold O-K, w plenty of maintenance, but they're just not worth it. I've seen a lot of hyundai's n kia's just start to fall apart and run funny within the first 5 years, easy. I personally think they're garbage.
Mines is a 2004 and has 267000 miles
@@hw5091 i havent changed the oil in 20k miles, the turbo has very little lag, yes i have the glx with the turbo, it literally just keeps going... yall need to stop abusing your cars if you cant get a few hundred K miles out of it
It's 18 years old. I think it held up pretty well for a daily commuter car.
At least this one is a rolling pile of junk. So it still beats out the Audi!
Lol. At least that one started up. For the Audi, so much for German engineering.
Ah yes.. das $16000 deutchen auto 😆
Seriously, that dude got screwed harder than a.. lets keep it family friendly here
"A rolling Hyundai gathers no moss, unlike a parked Audi"
Audi still one of the best
18 year old Hyundai - poorly maintained
18 year old Lexus - professionally maintained
To be fair, most people aren't mechanics. Scotty would be out of a job if they were.
Exactly & really is poorly maintaind. I have a T. Camry mdl. 1999, ie 3 yrs. older but everybody wants & insists me to sell it for.
Mad Hyundai fan
I’d say a lot of that is how well you take care of your car mine is a 2000 and it’s still in great shape
Exactly right. Whoever owns/owned that one was probably a slob who never took care of it and rarely, if ever, cleaned it.
I agree I had a Sonata just like that and it had 200,000 miles and still ran great honestly I think those little Hyundai's with the V6 are pretty great cars
Yeah I am kinda annoyed he is blaming the car. I wouldn't buy a Kia myself (never owned one) but this is clearly neglected, and/or been driven well and truely past a reasonable life expectency (milage wise).
Looks like a junkie owns it
@@blacktrekkie5840 I second that! I still own a 2003 and has 240000 miles and there's no sign of the engine and transmission going bad (yet) 🤞🏼
Toyota just recalled all 1994 Toyota celica's due to the fact that owners haven't got something newer yet.
Hahahaha!! They'll have to get Scotty's back by armed force!
Yeah that's a thing in Japan
Good times
toyota's dilemma : toyota does not make money form thire most loyal customers.
I laughed so hard at this man !
Scotty: "This Hyundai is the worst car ever made."
Me: "Still better than a '90's Opel Tigra."
Bruh no
seriously though, compare this to the 2021 sonata and they do not look like they are from the same brand at all
Not terrible, just.. not very manly
Oh boy, that was one bad car... I drove one for 1 month, and hey, I'm still alive!!!!
How about the old Vega?
This poor Sonata has *CLEARLY* been driven hard and I'm sure has had lots of "deferred" maintenance.
There's random loose electrical wires running through the driver's door from the engine compartment, an antenna(?) haphazardly taped/glued to the instrument cluster; a *VERY* dirty interior. I think the problem with this car is mostly the owner, or previous owners, or both.
I have one with 200k no problems and it’s really fast lol all original
Yup. I agree. Personally, I don't like Hyundai's, but with the age, mileage and neglect, I'd say this one held up better then you could expect.
Mines has 264,000 miles
I have a 2019 Veloster with the Silver Coverage Plan which include electrical repairs. My car would not start after just parking it less than 5 minutes earlier. I had it towed to Happy Hyundai in Oak Lawn, IL and two days later I was informed by Hyundai that my car needed a lock cylinder and ignition switch but it wasn't covered by the warranty because it appeared to the mechanic that force was administered but in the same breath the mechanic told me to use a screw driver to start my vehicle. This Hyundai Dealership and manufacturer's warranty are unethical. I'm sure a recall will surface about this same issue but until then, customers will be held responsible.
If you didn't use a screwdriver or force on the lock cylinder then fight them. Contact Hyundai 1-800 number and discuss this with them.
I really do not like Hyundai as a company. They treat customers like dirt and do not like to acknowledge when they have made mistakes. The cars look great and are great when they work but as they age....forget it
How much did you pay for that jewel. Rofllmfao
Give a Toyota to someone who doesn't give a crap about their car and it'll look just as bad as this Hyundai.
Sure, you can destroy even a well built car like a Toyota or Honda if you don't take care of it
not in million years
The paint wont go off like a that hyundai thou.
@@moimoialba9033 can’t blame the paint for coming off, the paint has had uv sunlight shine on it for nearly 20 years so.....
I would never buy one of those cars now, but since it's 18 years old, I'm sure the original owner got his money's worth.
Yes, he's done many miles, so no complaints. But as pointed out, if he'd spent a little more money, he'd still have a car.
@@RockyDave there's always going to be the tale of two cars both with really high mileage but different levels of maintenance
There's car A with 300,000 miles and it's nearly mint condition and runs like a top then there's car B also with 300,000 miles same model same year but it's riddled with problems related to suspension engine transmission interior body tires Wheels exhaust everything can barely get out of its own way barely starts bounces all over the place dirty Dusty covered in dents and rust and barely worth scrap
@@silasmcgee3647 Of course. But some cars will fall apart regardless of how well you look after them. My Chrysler Sebring diesel was given the best possible care and attention. I treated it like a baby! But even after spending a fortune on it, it never would have made 100,000 miles. In the end I had to cut my losses. Sold for parts at 10 years old. I am expecting my Honda Civic to do much better.
@@RockyDave oh you bet scotty has personally seen hondas with 300.000 and even 500.000 miles on them
had a 1992 Chrysler Minivan, bought for $500 with 200,000 miles on it. Interior was like new, AC was so cold made condensation on outside of entire car.. Feed it a Fuel pump $100, and Used Trans $400. drove it for years and years. neighbor backed into it, the Insurance payout was more then I bought it for. It got got paid for driving it for about 5 years.
That's when a owner doesn't take care of a car. I know people who have 2000 toyotas and they look like garbage like the one you're showing right now. And I know people who have the same car you're showing right now, and it looks like new
I've seen bad interiors on Lexuses on Facebook Marketplace
I think the biggest problem with that car is the care that it’s received over the years.
It’s still a garbage car unfortunately Toyota’s are just built tough
actually he cheacked the oil at the end and it looks to be maintained very well. I think it’s just bad quality like basically every Korean car lacks
these Hyundais seem to be cars that many buy new and then younger ppl get em cheap used and they literally do NOTHING but put gas in them. i never owned a Hyena but i always felt the 2000s ones were trash. melted honda badge thats what i call em
@@quantumstudios7944 the way the oil looks does not tell you how its maintained. Most everyone knows to change the oil. But when it comes to washing the car, cleaning the interior, maintaining the exhaust and suspension people are clueless...
@@bkbaughn but an average person doesn’t go around cleaning there exsist or even cleaning there car. So yes oil really shows wether a car is taken car of or not. And cleaning you car does not guarantee that it won’t fade. If your car sits in the sun a lot it will fate after a while. Plus considering that this car is somehow still driving while you rarely see this car on the road tells you that these are pretty bad cars.
Love scotty, but this is a unfair critique, this car probably has not had a single maintenance ever done on it for 300,000 miles
That thing is a Rolls Royce compared to the crap Daewoo sold here in the USA.
My friend bought one of those. It was really nice for about 6 months before it started falling apart. he couldn't find affordable parts to fix it after a minor accident. I think he might have kept it for 2 years max before junking it.
I had a Daewoo, I maintained it well, but I drove it hard, a lot.. never had an issue, sold it w 90k miles though
Scotty...I have a 2002 Hyundai Sonata GLS with the 2.7 V-6 and have over 177k miles. I take care of it with regular oil changes every 7500 miles using only NAPA Conventional Oil and Oil Filter. I have had the power steering lines replaced and it still runs like a champ. A few rust spots on the rear quarter panels but the rest of the silver paint is still in great shape. Love it and hope to keep it for a long time.
I worked on one years ago that was a 2007. Seamed like a nice car. Few years later I saw it again and man oh man! what a pile of junk!
Bought a Toyota Avalon brand new in 2004 and I’m still driving it today. It has 208,000 miles on it and it still runs like the day that I bought it 😀
Great job.
Lucky you
I have a 2004 Lexus LS 430 that still looks and runs like new. The Toyota/ Lexus cars were at their peak of quality then.
Toyota is the best!!
I mean it is a Toyota.....
We actually bought a new Sonata in 2002, but the 4 cylinder model. My wife drove it for 10 years, and it was a good car, although only had around 70K miles on it when we sold it. It was still in great shape at that point, sold it quickly for a bit over $3K in 2012.
Come on Scotty, clearly somebody didn’t take care of it...if the brake and head lights out on a 20 yr old car you can’t blame it on the manufacturer, the leather seats REALLY??? your bias is showing
He clearly said battery is not working saying it came from Hyundai lol. Also looks like the car hadn’t been maintained in years . 120k+ Mabey 200k well no one knows how many owners it has been threw in 18-19 years . Then compares it too a luxury car his wife’s Lexus which he maintains religiously and has very low milage.
Exactly, I agree. It definitely seems like no one ever cared for it.
Exactly. There are several cars that he has bashed on for faults that were clearly due to neglect.
Wonder how many neglected Toyotas have conveniently not made it on to his channel
He said his wife purchased one and it fell all to pieces. So he's speaking from experience.
I remember Conan O'Brien's joke in 2009 " a barge carrying thousands of Hyundai and Kia automobiles has sunk off the sea of Japan, the estimated damage is $3,000"
lmao
Lmao
Lmao
NOT A JOKE
And most of that was to cover the barge.
Well, since the car is about 20 years old, I'd figure at this point it's unreliability problems have less to do with the manufacture and more to do with the previous owners
Excactly!
Scotty was high when he made this vid. In six years
My Hyundais had ZERO PROBLEMS. I maintain.consistently.
Every car can have issues as it ages
My Tucson 2017 had a problem with acceleration. The dealership technician inspected the car for and said there is no permanent solution for this problem. Surprisingly they charged $120 for doing nothing on a guaranteed car. And the customer service did not respond to my complaint.
So with a 5 year bumper to bumper warranty you had to pay them to look at it? Not right. Sad thing is there's more and more recalls on these new ones too. 3 months to finally get a part on a 2020 that Hyundai said dont park in your garage as it may start on fire. Oh boy.
@@LGMinnesota Lexus/Toyota has a recall for engine fires now. This is the third one in six years. Yet you and I will still say that Toyota is one of the most reliable vehicles on the market.
It seems the owners of this Sonata did not take good care of the car.
This has more to do with the way the car was taken care of other than the quality of the car.
I had an 02 Sonata that went well over 200k and it never gave me a single issue. Seats looked new when I traded it.
Plus you’re trying to compare a 20 year old Hyundai to a 20 year old Lexus? Really?
Thank you exactly
I was about to say the same thing. It's all about care.
Yeah - any car is only as good as its maintained - I have seen toyotas in worse condition that are just 5 years old... he is so bias with his 100 years experience its actually getting boring, fast.
I had a 2004 Sonata v-6 .....sold to a buddy and his kid is still driving it with 212k and the auto trans is starting to go out now. In the time we had it other than normal stuff ....ZERO problems.....compare that with my wife's 01 civic EX which the first engine failed at 79k....first trans at 70k.....biggest pile of crap ive ever bought......got in a class action suite with American Honda and after 3 years we got 3800 bucks for a pile of crap that cost 17k new plus the cost of engine and trans. Never ever in 1 million years would i buy any Honda product now.....its a a 5 letter cuss word to me. Its all depends on how somebody took care of the car......who knows the person may have gone 25k on oil changes.
I had someone complain about a rebuild running rough, they put 20k miles on it, had 1 qt of oil in it and the original filter I put on.
Believe me if owners treat toyota like this car will be the same.
I’ve seen later model Toyota corollas with rusty roofs so he can’t really get on them for the paint because Toyota has cars with bad paint too. The seats in his wife’s car only have 60-70,000 miles on them and that car was driven by people who took care of it. This Hyundai obviously wasn’t babied. That being said this car is a pile of junk.
@@PumaPete yes
Under dealer Hyundai warranty...had to be replaced. They did not pay.... Still haven't gotten money for repair or car rental....PLEASE STAY away from hyundai cars.... They aren't customer reliable... Don't.

We have a 2019 Hyundai Kona with just under 20,000 miles on it. We purchased this vehicle for our daughter to go to work and school. The back seat has started to fail at the seams. Hyundai says it’s not defective and will not cover. I also have a Honda van that has 160,000 miles on it without a single seat issue. I will never purchase another Hyundai and will tell everyone I meet to avoid at all cost. Extremely pour customer service.
The straight H emblem of Honda is always better than the crooked H emblem of Hyundai.
I've looked at many 3 year old used honda crv's and the leather seats were really worn. Hyundais have very hard seats too. Gave me a back ache. Our buick seats are the best quality and comfort we've seen yet across many brands.

I would avoid Honda as well and get a Toyota instead

A former employee at Kia’s corporate headquarters says he warned the automaker as far back as 2017 that faulty engine recall work was to blame for car fires.
“I’m coming forward because people’s lives are at risk,” Jason Vaughn told I-Team Investigator Jackie Callaway in an exclusive sit-down interview.
Vaughn worked for the warranty department at the headquarters for Kia Motors America in Irvine, California before he left the company last month - claiming he was pushed out of his job for raising concerns about the car fires.
Vaughn told the I-Team he was performing Kia dealer audits in 2017 when he discovered dealerships performing engine recalls improperly - leading to highly flammable fuel pump leaks.
Vaughn said he alerted his boss during a warranty operations meeting circa November 2017 but didn’t get the reaction he expected.
“The warranty operations manager was not receptive at all,” said Vaughn. “She didn’t think that it was something that we should look at.”
My dad was a mechanic for 55 years and he LOVES the Hyundai brand.

You’re absolutely full of it. That’s just one example. I bought a 2002 Hyundai Sonata GLS from my grandfather, and it runs like a clock. Sure, it’s a used car and has some normal wear and tear. It’s got 160,000 miles, but nowhere NEAR the amount of problems this car has. I should bring mine down to Houston to change your mind.
Hey Scotty, we've had good experiences with our 2001 & 2005 Hyundai Santa Fe, bought new. My wife owns the 2005 with 210,000 miles and it runs great. My 2001 has 180,000 miles and runs great. I do about 90% of the maintenance. The only thing that's was replaced on her car is the stero under warranty. Not so lucky , I have replaced a dozen or so components.
Yes I agree. Hyundai SUVs are great. Never driven one of their sedans
Hyundai and Kia are recalling more than a half million vehicles in the U.S. due to new problems that can cause engine fires.
Toyota has recalled 3.34million recalls in 2020 for fuel pump issues Kia is having recalls for all the vehicles in the past like from 2007 to fix all the fuel pump and a whole bunch of other issues they had when they made trashy cars for absolute cheap the engine fire recalls are 2014 and 2015 vehicles and kia started to become better from 2017 I would only buy 2018 or newer because they become pritty good in the reliability department now we will have to see how long they will last through time not too sure but they definitely got better in the reliability department
Did you find it in the garage when you were cleaning for the move? Lol
Love it...lol
Come on Scotty ! I've seen better condition Sonata's than that. It looks like a tweeker owns it. Look what they did to the dash.

Lol
LMAO 🤣
I’ll have you know good sir that I purchased a 2020 Hyundai Sonata a few weeks ago and I’ve had 600 trouble free miles!
My daughter had a '03 Sonata V6, and it was in a lot better shape when we sold it. I hated the fact that to change the spark plugs, I had to remove the Plenum to get to the back 3 plugs. It had many more miles than this car, but the seats were in good condition, and the paint was better. The only reason I sold it was that it was from this strange place named Buffalo, New York, and the frame had a rust hole in it. I could have installed a clean California frame in it from a junkyard, but I'm getting too old for crap like that. I paid $2200 for it, and we drove it for at least 5 years. I had a metal plate welded on the frame, and sold it to a teenager who needed a car to get to work for $1500, even though I could have gotten a little more for it. The A/C, power steering, and all worked. No check engine light either. The car Scotty checked either had a hard life, or was built on a Monday or Friday.
Dudes gonna see his car getting roasted lol
He’s gonna trade it to Scotty for the cheapest item in his garage

Yeah you could do worst than a hyundai, sure it's not as reliable as a Toyota, but I would say still a new hyundai is more reliable than a lot of american and italian stuff.
Our 04 Forester runs flawlessly
I have a 1998 sonata v6 and works perfectly
This car is a winner, has over 200,000 miles and still runs. I like Hyundai.
This can’t qualify as the worst car ever if it does say BMW or Audi on the bumper
Or any Fiat-Chrysler badge
Or Mercedes

The Celica without the Yamaha engine at least.

My mother had one of these and it lasted quite a long time. She did take care of it though lol.
That steering wheel looks like a science experiment.
Really gross! Totally trashed out!
korean cars makers use extremely cheap plastics from china.
You’re a very biased mechanic Scotty, well it just depends on who took care of vehicle prior who owns the vehicle which same goes with Toyota’s and Honda’s. My mom and dad had a 2006 Hyundai Sonata v6 bought brand new with well over 200k on the odometer sold it in 2018 for less but very little problems with the car and the matter the fact he took care of the car.
Of course you’re gonna be biased. Everyone has biases. I hate ram trucks, and Stellantis products in general. Scotty is just like us, he likes cars. So being around them far longer than myself, he’s gonna have a very good idea on what works, and what doesn’t. Have you ever talked to a car guy? We all have our biases. Scottys just us that’s been a mechanic for a very long time that talks about cars. Not having biases whether they’re conscious or subconscious, not having biases would be like expecting a fish to not swim
@@alekbeaver4088 then dont put it on yt to make everyone call you stupid
My wife bought a 2000 Hyundai Accent, brand-new, for a few sandwiches and a sack of nickels. In 2006, it spontaneously combusted. She was a mystery shopper so she got all the oil changes and manufacturers recommended services because they were essentially free after she was reimbursed for her work. You can’t tell me there was anything wrong that we did. That mf just burned and melted all on its own!!!
For goodness sake people, listen to this man! I've had TWO of those Hyundais - identical to the ones in this video, and EVERYTHING Scotty says about them is 100% correct! They were fine for the first 100,000 miles, then gave me nothing but headache after expensive headache!! The BEST thing I can say about those cars is that I learned a LOT of mechanic skills by replacing so many parts on the car - speed sensors, wheel bearings, power steering return lines, AC compressor pulley bearings, starters, valve cover gaskets, etc, etc! I'm sorry, but I'll NEVER buy another Hyundai again.
Your Hyundai lasted 100,000 miles, and you learned how to repair it, because of it.
While it might not be the best made car, it still teaches you how to fix cars, that itself is helpful, especially when you drive older economy cars.
If you think that your car is well looked after, just because you drive a toyota or honda, and go to dealership garages, or any other garages, your in for nasty surprise, even dealership garages will sabotage things, so you have to go get servicing sooner, same applies to non dealership garages.
The best is to fix it yourself.
I worked in the auto industry, and I have seen many not so good things happen to peoples cars, from the inside.
The only person I trust to service my cars, is myself only.
The only time I go to the garage is when I need to do steering alignment done.
Tire replacement and balance, but I just make temporary use of my other set of tires, example : if the winter set is due for replacement, I use the summer set, if the summer set is due for replacement, I use the winter set.

U r right
Correct, I have a 21 year old Toyota that's in excellent shape, but I pass ones that are in terrible shape all the time.
Exactly. Some serious bias in this video
I had a 2001 Sonata that literally fell apart at around 150k miles. My next car was a 2003 Corolla, which is still running perfectly at 200k miles
I was one of those unfortunate owner of a crappy Korean car at the turn of the century. Because of that, I told myself that I will never buy another kimchi ever
same. but my reason was kimuch Diarrhea.
Paint faded, headlight or tail light bulbs out and ripped leather- In an 18 yr old car. Dude those are mostly on the the owners not taking care of it. I’ve seen 10 yrs old Toyotas and Hondas with worse problems than that. Scotty just doesn’t like Korean, German or Italian cars and classifying each as junk when original owners of some of those got their money’s worth.
I agree about Hyudai's but to be fair, looks like the owner didn't take care of it at all.
I always thought the worst cars ever made were the Yugos.
Your right!
The Ford Pinto and Chevrolet Vega junkers too
Any Honda or Toyota could be a pile of junk if you don’t take care of it.
Should be titled - "Check out this car that was totally neglected by its owner(s)"
I agree with you, bad battery, clanking cat, lights not working, bad hood struts, leaking radiator, can't let it fall apart then take it to a mechanic & ask to fix it. I had a 2004 Kia paid $1400 for it with 121000 miles on it, and drive it till 16500 miles. (Still ran when I got rid of it, but needed a/c fixed too much $$$) I fixed the things it needed (little by little), brakes , clutch, front wheel bearing, water pump, plugs, belts valve cover gasket. I knew it was a 12 year old car when I bought. I drove it for 4 years, that car never left me stranded. I thought it was a good car. I had that argument with someone, just because it's old doesn't mean you don't fix it or maintain it, if you don't you'll end up walking.
These aren't known to be the best cars, but I think lack of maintenance did this car in more than anything else!
I have a 11 year old Sonata and I have no issues with it. It has almost 150,000 miles on it. Hyundai makes way better cars now but also I took care of mine
@@jdlmon3 I have elantra ! 130000 miles never had any problems! Paint looks like like new . it's a 2011 ! If you take care of the car it Most likely take care of you! The car scottys is looking at looks like it's been in a war zone! Can't blame the car for not being taking care of!
Hyundai cars are junk.
All cars are junk if they aren't maintained properly, even Toyotas!

Who needs headlight anyway. One is already too many.
I drive by feel at night
Korean-owned carmakers can be a toss-up depending on the year, and more importantly, where they were made. In the late 1990s and early 2000s, in what I'm guessing was an effort to keep costs low, they had production in places like India, Russia and China, often only final assembly work being done in South Korea itself. The result was a very cheap car with a lot of features but... as time shows, they didn't hold up well. This was a Forth-gen Sonata. By the Fifth Gen, Hyundai was staring to realize production quality had to be better, and they began making them in North America and Thailand too. That tendency to criticize and improve their construction and where they're made has continued up to the current Eighth generation. Only thing is... there is little cost difference now between them and a Toyota Camey - less than $1000 USD currently - so in Scotty's own words "Just get the Camry."
I don't say that to knock Korean vehicles - _both_ of my current vehicles are Korean, it's just good to understand the nature of the situation. In my case, I bought mine for very unique reasons, and with one it was used for a super-cheap price with no issues, so I wasn't losing out, nor am I under the unrealistic expectations that I will get Toyota-like mileage out of them. I've found the highest quality builds are from 2010 up, particularly if they were made in South Korea itself. But it always, *always* pays to do as Scotty suggests over and over: do your research and have a mechanic check it out _before_ you buy.
tengo un hyundai terracan v6 del 2005 y es muy bueno, lo mismo digo de los sorento y accent del 2001 en adelante, no son auntos malos, hay que cuidarlos bien
@@bugayev Yes - there were some good ones prior, and it has to do with here things were made again. My father had a 2003 Hyundai Elantra - he put 101,000 miles on it and sold it to a co-worker, who still drives it today. It now has 283,000 miles on it. The Beta II engine paired with a manual transmission was pretty solid in that case.
The buick encore from Korea is very well made.
@@Dakiraun the automatics arent bad either for that year the sensors on them may wear out time to time making a non competent mechanic think it's the transmission when it isn't. And yes the beta 2 is a work of art any "knowledgeable" mechanic will tell you of it's high mileage capability. I have a 2005 hyundai elantra myself currently looks brand new inside still after a year the first owner took really good care of it for being dam near 100,000 miles now
But you can get Toyota like mileage out of them. It's possible and has been done. You can see RUclips videos and Kia/Hyundai forums to see for yourself.
Scotty: tries to start it; it doesn't start right up. It's not a Toyota.
Scotty: the Hyundai Sonata is the worst!
1970s Ford Pinto: Looks away, then back.
Hey.... I love my pinto. Lol
that would be 2014 Kia Soul.
it caught fire in parking lot.
I mean if it lasted that many miles then it probably not a terrible car
yup, he did mention that 120k miles isn't even the correct mileage since it's broken a long time ago
the paint is faded prolly because it's a 18 years old car that is parked under the sun and hardly ever waxed before
That's still a $500 car these days
Mine had 180K when I traded it in; most expensive expenses were two timing belt jobs. That car had obviously been abused.
Pretty sure when you floor it in a car thats misfiring the cat is going to go. Was the cat bad before you took it out on a joy ride?
I was retching over the extra money I spent for my Camry over other cars I might've gotten cheaper, but after hearing how much money my friends spent fixing their pieces of junk (one of them just spent $1500 fixing his old Elantra!), I hug my ride everyday and baby it to death!
Me too! Got a 98 Corolla and she’s held up so well. Not too far off from mint condition. Best investment ever!
Toyota is garbage
They're a hundred thousand miles throw away away car
In 2002 hyundai had a LOT of issues compared to just a few years later.
Theres a few exceptions, but just about any Ford Escape... Throw aways, I seldom even find them at the scrapyard

I have a 2017 Hyundai Tucson. I went with the Tucson because I wanted AWD. It has been one of the biggest mistakes. The first was getting a Hyundai. They don’t care about their consumers. My car has been blowing headlights- having electrical issues (my auto windows go back down when you roll them up, my rear windshield wipers go off whenever they want, my break light seems to go on and off at random. I have reached out because as a company they should only want the best products out there. I was told that “because my car is over 3 years old. There is nothing they can do for me. To bring it to a dealer and “see what I can get” for it. I owe more than it’s worth because one thing they don’t tell you when you buy a Hyundai is they depreciate way faster than you can make payments to survive. DO NOT BUY A HYUNDAI.
Sad u have to learn it the hard way. In my country, this and Kia are crap.
Even today they still seem to be having paint quality control issues. They did a massive buy back of new red G70s because owners were complaining of paint chipping after a few months. If you see anyone selling a red G70, it was bought back by Genesis and repainted again at the factory.
When auto companies were forced to change paints due to federal laws they have never been the same.
LMAO Does anyone take care of their cars? It is not hard to maintain...
“Worst car ever made,” laughs in 1988 Chevy Celebrity and 1980 Chevy Citaaaaaation
Laughs in anything made with a locking torque converter during the first 10 years of locking torque converter.
My mother had a 1987 Pontiac 6000 S/E. I understand completely. Nearly a decade of 0 psi oil pressure at traffic lights, never-fixable Service Engine Soon lights, snapped camshaft at 187k...
Omg the citation! Lol. I had one
The design looks like a copy from Mercedes. It’s ugly on the Mercedes and even uglier on this.
SsangYong started those ugly grill in front. The rest of the Korean makers copy them.
I think on the Mercedes it looks kinda good, depending on the model. I'd call it a matter of taste. The rounded headlights make the car look cute and innocent, rather friendly imo.
Whereas on the Hyundai it looks like is a frog with tumors on his eyeballs. Totally awful. In contrast to the polarizing Mercs (50% love it, 50% hate it), nobody likes the ugly Hyundai (100% hate it). Luckily they both improved and look good today.
True
FYI that ugly looks on W211 ran for almost 8 years
The longest running E class model ever!! With millions of units sold
And it looked stunning😍
I've always wondered when I see cars like this and a statement like 'this brand is completely unreliable' is given. Like, would things be different if the owner(s) just took care of them? Service them at the proper intervals, drove them like a regular person, washed it and just generally took care of it? I understand design flaws like with the engine, but I almost feel like most of the time it's owners not doing their part in maintaining their vehicle. IDK, I can't imagine a company staying in business if they truly do produce crappy vehicles.
EDIT: I know he mentioned that the oil looked clean and it was serviced, I'm talking more generally, not necessarily this exact car.
“Yundie Sonata”
I worked as a car mechanic about 40 years ago. You have taught me a lot about new automotive technology. Thanks.

Everybody gangsta until scotty does his funniest laugh
My grandma had one of these 😅 i remember that chime sound and its the same exact color, luckily she didn't keep it that long to see it fall apart 😂
@Michael Rheinstrom yes it has a nice sound to it 😅
When he said its really moving now I laughed out loud!
I wouldn't spend another $1 on this car if I didn't have too.
We used to call them "ONE DAY HYUNDAIS" 😂
In the beginning, Hyundai and Kia (since merged) were very low-quality. Then they upped there game to a point, but they will never beat Toyota or Honda in overall reliability. NOTE: I said overall, since Toyota and Honda have had their share of bad decisions affecting quality.
NEXT DAY hyunDIES
I agree with Scotty. I am the owner of this Sonata and it has been a total nightmare. Bought it in 2016 and immediately the Starter Motor broke and the Power Steering System completely Exploded in several locations, then the idle control valve sensor & the Radiator broke. My 1996 Toyota 4Runner (250k miles) I had before this Sonata, Never had any of these problems (I went sideways into a Tree at high speed - my seatbelt saved my life - right side completely Caved in, & it still drove straight, but looked really scarry)
-----------------
I just got a LEXUS is250 !!!
2008, v6. Automatic, Private Seller got it in 2010. Has All the Service Records.
OMG - I Love this Lexus !!!
Feels so good to have a reliable car again 🙂
i feel like allot of the problems are caused by the previous owner, sure they arnt great cars but i imagine if it wasnt abused it would be alright.
I have a hyundai sonata of 1998 and works perfect amazing car!
My 1998 Toyota camry with 110k miles more than this clunker runs like a charm. I spent 1000 and put about 1000 into it and has been extremely reliable for over 5000 miles, and took me 200 miles from my house to san diego and back zero issues. If reliability and luxury is what you want but have a low budget, go for an older camry! They are very comfortable and roomy.
Yeah Camry, Avalon, Sienna, Tundra, 4Runner.. all amazing '97 - 2014ish😍
(I would not buy anything newer for now✔️)
