| 14880 mi C $325 |
Not really a cosmetic issue. Chronic fuel door non-release (unlocks, but a thin object such as a key is required to open door). Lubricated by dealer, the problem persists but only manifests itself on an occasional basis. |
| C $1139 | Shattered front driver's-side inner fender sleeve due to -30 degrees. Consequent exposure of internal front bumper surface along bottom of wheel well resulted in accumulation of compacted snow/ice at that corner, cracking bumper bottom. |
| 27280 mi | Defective sunvisor. Minor problem. |
| 36400 mi | Inboard, passenger side, dash louver was replaced. Prior to repair, this vent had been stuck in the closed position. |
| 2000 mi | Broken drivers side sun visior |
| 13200 mi | Rattling noise at idle. Suspected cause was installation of performance springs during September 2010. Adjustment made, rattle gone. |
| 16000 mi | Water leaked into area where spare tire is stored in trunk. There are two rubber grommets in this area for drainage and one appears to have been defective and allowed water to pool below the spare. |
| 20000 mi | Water leaked into rear spare tire compartment for at least the second time I've noticed. Removed grommets and sealed them with a heavier grade silicone. |
| 27300 mi | Black trim on roof had faded and peeled exposing metal underneath on both sides of the vehicle. Trim replaced with updated trim made of a different material all together. |

138-horsepower 2.0L I4 4-speed automatic FWD
| 76300 mi | Hyundai recall: replace door handles due to material peeling |
| 14200 mi | Adhesive strip on roof by roof rails peeling. New strip replaced by dealer. Required a second repair trip because they initially ordered the wrong part. |
| 19000 mi | Passenger-side door handle coming loose, trim peeling causing cuts on hand when opening. |
| 21000 mi | Passenger side sunvisor, vanity mirror cover broke at hinge. Ordered and replaced sunvisor. |
| 15000 mi | The plastic cover on the vanity mirror broke and fell down. First, it was hanging and dealer said it wasn't covered by warranty. I called Hyundai corporate line and they said it was covered. Finally they replaced the whole sunvisor. |
| 29000 mi US $400 |
window regulator |
| 12090 mi | Fuel door was sticking and eventually would not release by itself. Dealer adjusted the release cable. This is a known issue. |
| 97200 mi US $30 |
Interior door handle failed |
| 24340 mi | removed roof liner to repair lose piece that was squeaking / rattling |
| 29020 mi | Loud squeeking noise in the rear - turned out to be one of the rear tail lights; housing. Tape was installed between the housing and the body. |
| 3100 mi | 'Fish eyes' in rear glass. |
| 28520 mi | rubber trim peeling off roof |
| 8000 mi | Also had some loud squeaking from the rear hatch. Mechanic found one of the rear hatch pistons had excessive play. Dealership ordered a new piston for the hatch. |
| 28500 mi | The piston for the hatch also came in but they decided it wasn't the piston causing the noise. They said it was coming from the hatch itself and they want me to bring the car back in so they can send it to the bodyshop to diagnose. |
| 20200 mi US $241 |
Front bumper cover tab snapped off now the passenger side of the bumper cover hangs. Doing battle with Hyundai for them to cover this under the warranty. |
| 43000 mi | Body moulding became loose due to heat in southern sun. Dealer repaired under warranty. |
| 20500 mi | front end noise recall |
| 37200 mi | Roof rail coating was peeling off |

| 28700 mi US $280 |
Roof gutter cover disintegrated |

The windshield trim disintegrated - like various other bits of exterior trim. Like the window weatherstripping, I felt we needed to replace them to avoid trapping water inside the exterior and causing rust. |
