Scotty. My daughter bought a 2008 Hyundai Elantra SE new in 08’. She drives it to work & back, a 95 mile round trip. With 220,000 miles - she never had a problem. Changed timing belt once, the oil at regular intervals, brakes, wipers & tires. Not one major repair. Still going strong. And my wife bought the same car (just different color) 2 months after my daughter. Her Elantra has 55,000 miles. Same condition and no repairs. Both are going strong in NY weather. So I’m not too sure where you get your “not made well & don’t last” opinion. They certainly have performed extremely well for this household.

Not discounting your experience but buying a Hyundai is like Russian roulette. Yes you’ll get some over 200,000 miles and others will have major problems a lot sooner then that. Consumer Reports gives a view generally into reliability for cars. I own 2008 Honda Civic Hybrid with 205,000 miles with no maintenance issues but the battery pack which is expected. Scotty is talking about overall reliability and cost and not some particular cars like the ones you experienced. Hope one of those 200,000 miles Hyundai’s was your.👌🏻✌🏻

Based off of my own experience mine has been a good first time car. First owner bought in 2010 from the dealership and kept up with maintenance, She baby the car. She sold it to me because of a passing in the family, The daughter was given her dad's car and the mother got the daughter's car. I paid $1,100 for it and now the second owner of a blue 2010 Hyundai Accent GS with 188,660 miles on it. I've had it for 2 years, 5 months, 9 days and do basic maintenance on it. I only had one problem with the car and even my mechanic couldn't find it or fix it. The car had intermittent starting based on the weather,etc it would seem. It would start no problem one day and the very next day not at all. I got fed up with this and bought a blue driver, It had another bad day of not starting and i checked for codes with blue driver. There was a code for Bad or Failing Crankshaft Position Sensor, I found the sensor and removed it. I had a family member drive me to the dealership, I told them i want a new one of these and i put the new one in when i got home. I cleared the codes and just like that the my problem was gone. She's been good since then.

This is Scott’s opinion, he’s not the only mechanic in the world. If your Hyundai lasted the way it did, then that’s good. Scott is a huge Honda and Toyota fan. Toyota and Honda have issues just like any other brands. I have a Hyundai, and it has been good to me so far. Hyundai’s aren’t bad cars at all. You just have to take of your car.

New oil and filter and all good as new. If that was a ford or Holden it would of been stuffed.

@@VideoArchiveGuy I'm a tech guy. That's just me. The longest I ever owned a car was 10 years. It was new when I bought it and sold it with around 100k miles. My last car was 5 years old and because I walk to work (I live across the street) it only had 35k miles on it. That was 2 years ago. Now I'm driving a 2 year old Genesis G70 with just under 12k miles. Honestly when my lease runs out I'll probably buy out the lease and keep this one another 3 years or so. My motto is, "Save enough money for a comfortable retirement and spend the rest however you choose". For some that might mean leasing a car every 3 years. For others that might be traveling the world. For some it may mean doing both. What good does all that extra money do once your dead? Life is short. Enjoy it. Just make sure you have enough money for retirement for 20 or so years.

Aside from replacing worn suspension parts this summer as it reached 180K miles, the car was one of my all-time favorites. Scotty videos are hilarious in that he will declare Hyundais and Kias to be total crap one week and then talk about them being pretty decent the next.

Not my experience Scotty. 4 Hyundais in a row. XG350 V6, Azera V6, Sonata T Turbo4, Azera V6 again. All flawless, only brakes and tires at 50K miles. No other maintenance. Yeah, Toyota and Honda make good cars, but so does Hyundai. If you buy the crappy, lowest price, under-powered models from any maker, they're not so good. Step it up and you get a nice, servicable, quality car from Hyundai. The same cannot be said for US makers unfortunately. They're all bad.

As a Hyundai owner i say this. I owned a 2011 2013 and 2015 sonata. Those had very nice engines and decent designs with plenty of tech. But interior was horrible. The plastic broke with the slightest pressure and everything else would get loose and break. Now I own a 2020 sonata. And the opposite happened the interior is amazing. The exterior design is beautiful but the engine is horrible. Backfiring. Break system noises. Screech at 4k rpm’s. Horrible waste gate rattle on cold starts. Tire issues that appears to be tread separation. It’s only got 16 k miles. I baby this car. Regular oil changes and I don’t even use sport mode. I use smart mode and drive it on eco. It’s at the dealer right now getting service. I would of kept my 2015 eco trim if I knew this. Because yes the plastic was cracked but at least the engine was 100%.

I've been watching your videos here from the uk for a while, I agree with alot of things you say, Having been in the motor trade like yourself for many years I have to disagree when you mention Kia, I Worked as a mechanic for them for years and these thing clocked 200k no issues, and that is a small 1400 petrol, I have seen the newer toyota's giving nothing but issues recently, The newer ones are poorly made compared to what they used to be like everything else.

I bought a manual transmission Hyundai Elantra in 2005 brand new for $12k. I drove it until it had 278k miles on it and the engine was still running good. No oil leaks. Just the Valverde cover gasket. I replaced everything that wore out and it only broke down once while driving (alternator gave me out at about 250k miles). It was a very reliable commuter. I sold it for like $500 since it needed suspension work and the paint was starting to peel in some parts.

The only good thing I can say about Hyundai... I've owned 2 Sonatas, a 2001 I bought in 2014 and a 2007 I got in '16 (different generations). Both of them were super beat up, on the outside and I bought them off Craigslist not running. I paid $350 and $450 for them and both of them Just needed a $100 Crank/Camshaft positioning sensor and ran fine for years. I mean, the bodies, and anything attached broke off & fell apart pretty bad, but I was very hard (Alaskan Style) on them and they each ran good for years. Then I just scrapped them when I was done. Definitely got my money's worth.

Hi. I got all depressed after buying a Dodge Dart 2.4. I got the worst car in America according various reports. So I change the oil every 5000 miles, trans oil every 30000 miles, and never rev or stress the engine. I change the plugs, ignit, pcv valve, air sensors 1 & 2, and so far it it perfect at 100,000 miles. I do it cause Scotty says most don't take care their car. He is so right.

They are great, reliable, fun, budget-friendly cars. I used to drive Honda and Toyota, but their high cost make them impractical for me, and Hyundai is now our go-to brand. By the way, I think Scotty forgot the old Hyundai commercial from the 80s or 90s where they explained “it rhymes with Sunday!”
