Asked by Diane Tait
Since new my 2012 Hyundai ix35 Elite has had static on several FM stations. I took it to my local Hyundai service centre last May to have them fix a few things, among them the radio static. They replaced the antenna, but it was no better. I was told the radio stations I listen to are small stations and their transmitters aren't very strong, and that there was nothing more they can do. It was suggested I should ring Hyundai Australia, which I did and I was told they would look into it. When I didn't hear back I contacted Hyundai again and was told there was nothing more they could do. I told him about the Nissan Pulsar I traded in on the ix35 had better reception and a friend's Kia Magentis picked up these stations better. I even offered to purchase a better radio if they had one, but was told there wasn't one.

31 May 2013We've had a few reports of poor radio reception on Hyundais. Your best course of action would be to consult a radio specialist who should be able to fit a better antenna to your car.
