Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
I regret bitterly the day I bought this car. I WOULD NEVER, EVER TOUCH ANOTHER HYUNDAI AGAIN, NOR RECOMMEND THIS MANUFACTURER TO ANYONE ELSE. It has cost me over £1,200 in 8 months. The first problem was in March when the power steering pump and rack had to be replaced. In June I had to have the idle control valve replaced. Hyundai had recalled Getz for this problem 2 years ago but refused to pay for this work for me. The same problem has reoccurred and the car is back in the garage again.
What's most practical about your car?
Nothing
