2009 Hyundai Tucson - Good car for the price
Overall I like the Tucson. There are a good many features like heated seats and mirrors. The seats are comfortable and are holding up very well. We put a lot of wear and tear on our Tucson and it's holding up well with almost 150,000 miles on it already. However, the air conditioning doesn't work and it's currently August, so that isn't fun. I tried to get this fixed several times with our warranty at the dealership and after several failed attempts the warranty finally expired and the issue was never resolved. I'm very disappointed in this. First of all that this part (the AC compressor) broke since our mechanic said it's not very common. Second, the garage at the dealership argued with me that it couldn't be broken. This leads me to believe they just charged the AC and didn't change ... (more)
Historia
We took a road trip to Maine and on the way back decided to stop in Boston at the aquarium. We stopped at the Massachusetts visitor center to get directions. The person at the visitor center showed up the location on the WALKING map of Boston. Needless to say this didn't go well. While I had my head down reading the map telling my husband to make a left he responded with "I can't we are inside... (more)

Broken air conditioner from an expensive part that apparently doesn't normally break

2005 Hyundai Tucson - Crappy
I bought this car because the style was similar to my dead Subaru Forester, but I couldn't afford another Forester. For several years, I had recurring problems with the car: it would start jerking and the engine would rev oddly while sitting in park. This would also make the check engine light come on. After going to a garage and having the O2 sensors replaced twice in a year (2 different garages), it would run ok for awhile and then problems would start again and the check engine light would be back on. I could continue driving it, but the check engine light means an automatic fail at inspections. Another couple of years of problems and I finally got a garage to look at it without doing "computer diagnostics". It turned out the ignition coil was burnt nearly through. They replaced it ...

Historia
I took the car on a road trip to Vermont with a friend and it is relatively gas-friendly.
A Favor
It is still running at nearly 200k. I've just driven it even when it was balky and when I had to rev at stop lights to keep it going. During the summer, I just don't drive it very far. It is comfortable enough, although I didn't find it comfortable for the first couple of years. Plus, because the outside looks so janky and trashy since the panels fell off, I believe people tend to give me a little more berth on the road because it looks like the car has come through some battles already.
En Contra
The mysterious stupid problem that is unfixable by the dozens of mechanics who have examined the car. Whatever that is. What is it NOT is O2 sensor related, as in the end I had them replaced THREE times. The computer diagnostic system for this car is a lying liar.
2007 Hyundai Tucson -
I purchased the vehicle because I needed more control in an area of poor weather. I lived in Alaska on the top of a mountain and in the winter they don't always get around to shoveling. I wanted an SUV, but I wanted something that was manual transmission, something that had decent gas mileage, and something that wouldn't cost me a fortune. This was the best option at the time and I am very happy with the way it worked out. I've now put over 110,000 miles on it and I've been in 2 major accidents. I also had problems with a blown head gasket and, even though my car was out of warranty, the warranty company was willing to pick up 70% of the parts cost for replacing the engine.
Historia
I used to throw my dog in the back and we would drive to the middle of Alaska and go camping somewhere. We had a really great time driving out to the middle of nowhere and just exploring.
A Favor
I have a vehicle large enough to throw all my gear in. It didn't cost me a fortune and I've put some really hard miles on it. I love that it is manual and that I can have better control of the vehicle in the winter months when things are more slippery. I've had it for almost 10 years now and it doesn't look outdated. I really liked the 10 year, 10,000 mile warranty and when I had problems with my engine, it wasn't a fight to get them to fix it.
En Contra
Some of the interior features are cheap. I like having a clean car and there are some areas that just don't stay clean no matter what I do to it. I would have liked to have had some other options for features, like a moon roof, or automatic start, or cruise control and my car doesn't have any of those. I also don't like that I need to be so close to the wheel to reach the pedals. They should have designed the vehicle to be able to have pedal extenders or something.
