Faults:

Both power window motors have been replaced. Passenger side twice. Now the passenger side regulator is bad.

Had to have the hood repainted.

Had to have a new radio because the numbers stopped showing. It is starting to do this again.

The inside cover on the sunroof would not retract, so it had to be fixed. The local dealer could not do the repair, so they had to send it out to a specialty shop.

The drivers side door lock mechanism had to be replaced.

It has had two recalls, one for a fuel line problem and I can't remember the second one now.

General Comments:

I have had this car since it was brand new and I still love it. At first I was disappointed with all the problems it was having. After all the bugs were worked out, it has been a great car. I have never had any problems with the engine, transmission or clutch.

This car has over 140,000 miles on it and it has ALWAYS started and ran.

It is a small car and would be uncomfortable for someone who is tall. Even for me at 5'6" it is uncomfortable on long (over 2 hours) trips.

Faults:

I've had this car for almost 4 years now, and not once have I had a problem with the car mechanically or electrically.

General Comments:

Great car. Would recommend it to anyone looking for a great all around car.

Faults:

The most common annoyance since purchasing this vehicle are the electricals. Since purchasing this vehicle in 2003, I have already gone through 5 batteries.

The sunroof motor has burned out after two years of owning it.

The power-locks have been a constant pain since owning this vehicle. They open and close whenever they feel like it.

Factory clock on dashboard has not work since one week after purchasing this vehicle.

Replaced the left automatic window twice.

The thermostat and radiator went after 75,000 miles.

General Comments:

Car is a lot of fun to drive. Handles really well in bad weather such as snow and rain.

However, this vehicle has plenty of electrical problems.

I will not purchase another Hyundai in the future.

Faults:

I bought a used 2003 Hyundai Tiburon av little more than a year ago.

Not only have the seats started to wear, but the wires under the steering column started to melt, which made my interior lights, radio and windows stop working.

It was perfectly fine when I bought it, and in less than a year it started to have problems.

Faults:

I have a 2003 GT V6 Tiburon. It was my first car, and I got it because it looked great and I heard that they were good on gas. Now, I know better. Here are some of the problems I have encountered:

1. About 3 months after I got the car, the battery had to be replaced, no big deal, these things happen.

2. Then, I began having problems with my radio/CD player. It would turn off the radio and try to play a CD by itself. Never got that fixed, it just stopped doing it all the time and now it only happens every once in a while.

3. Next, my seat belt light came on. The driver side seat belt had to be replaced; I think it was the sensor that was messed up.

4. Then, my door locks broke. I had to replace the actuator. Now, if I try to use my key to open the door, the alarm goes off.

5. My sunroof does not leak, but if you are driving on the bypass and going 60mph or more, it makes an awful noise that makes you feel like the top is going to blow off.

6. The passenger seat gets stuck a lot, and it's very hard to put down or back up when someone has to sit in the back.

7. I have had to replace the shocks on my trunk, because they went bad and my trunk would not open.

8. The driver's side door freezes shut when the weather is cold, and it's impossible to open without a cup of warm water.

9. The weather stripping on the passenger side has fallen off around the bottom of the door, and the little yellow clips are broken.

10. I feel like it is only a matter of time before something happens to the transmission. It is automatic but it shifts very hard.

11. Two weeks ago I had to replace my passenger side wheel bearing because it went bad.

12. Last night, my car began to smell like gas. It is so strong that after just a short 5 minute ride I was nauseous and had a terrible headache.

After having this car for almost 4 years, I have decided that I am tired of wasting my money to fix it, and I will be trading it in very soon!
