2001 Hyundai Trajet 2.0

Summary:

A good car, but need to address the major engine parts' durability issue

Faults:

My air condition compressor broken after 72000 km.

General Comments:

This car rides well.

Very comfortable for family travels.

Cornering is OK, despite the size.

I was advised to change the timing belt at 60000 km, a friend had his timing belt ripped off at less than 60000 km, luckily for him (so I heard) that Hyundai agreed to foot the bill for the replacement and other costs.

This problem, together with my air condition compressor problem signify durability problem of major engine parts.
