Its not really cold in my area yet...and Ive got three door panels that creak too much. In addition to a very noisy/creaky/groan coming from the hatch area. Cant tell if its the hatch itself or the suspension. Its easiest to duplicate when turning right on to some sort of incline. Thats just one of several issues with it.
Stef- took out all the items in the well...didnt help. I guess Im one of the few who really is dissatisfied with the ET. |
Again, the Elantra and Touring are $16,000 economy cars. I think you are expecting too much.

My wife drives a Chevy Aveo- the ET handles better and has a better sound system. Othwerwise- the ET gets trumped in all other categories....extending beyond creaks and rattles. They are similar price points.

Let me fix that for you.

This is amusing to see people buying non-expensive car but expecting Roll-Royce quality.

No, I am not expecting Rolls quality, but I am expecting the same quality from my Hyundai that would be found in a new Ford Focus, Toyota Corolla or a VW Beetle. Hyundai seems to agree with me as does the dealer. My ET had an EVIDENT problem that literally screamed there was something seriously wrong with the suspension. I appreciate their concerted effort to make certain the car drove as one would reasonably expect a new economy car to run. |
My 2 cents! It is a cheep car!
made by people that are told to cut the quality for an out the door price ! You get what you paid for!! I Did & should just shut up, when the problems that are coming, & I should have bought an toyota, for 5000.00 more!! You won't see an 12 year Hyundai of any kind still on the road from now. Ron |
How can it be my opinion when Im speaking strictly from my ownership experience? Thats exactly what Ive experienced between the two vehicles. Perhaps I should have qualified it with "my experience" ...my apologies
"Then I guess you should have bought another Aveo instead of a Touring." Wow...couldnt see that coming, lol. Actually I needed a hatchback, and the Aveo 5 wasnt big enough. |
FWIW- Im not expecting RR quality...but Ive driven a number of cars at this price point that arent as bad with the creaks and rattles Ive experienced with my ET.
