Hyundai ix35 Problems

The CX-5 and Tucson are both highly rated medium SUVs, and I’m sure both would be good choices for your needs. Both are refined and cabin noise doesn’t appear to be a problem with either of them. If I were to choose I would go for the CX-5.

I would rule out the CX-7 on the basis of poor fuel consumption, the performance of the iX35 petrol version is a little lacking, the Tucson is a better car, but I would suggest the X-Trail is probably your best bet.

All non-commercial used cars sold in New South Wales are by law meant to have a warranty of 3 months/5000 km if they are less than 10 years old and have done less than 160,000 km. But even if it met those criteria you have had the car for six months and the warranty would have expired.

As I understand it it's not a straight fit. The headlights on your car can be adjusted so have your dealer do it at the next service and see if that improves it for you.

Don't just cop it, that's a cop out. Complain directly to Hyundai and request something be done about it. At the same time go to a car audio specialist and ask them what they could do to improve it.

The peeling of the wheel covering is a known problem on some Hyundai models and Mr Wood got a replacement wheel after I contacted Hyundai. We will just bypass the dealer, who probably deserves a kick, and I will do the same for you with Hyundai headquarters.

In order, I would suggest you consider the VW Tiguan, Kia Sportage, and Mazda CX-5. All are reliable, drive nicely, and are well equipped.

While I imagine that it's possible to modify the electronics to do what you want, I doubt it's as simple as you seem to think. To do it now on a 2012 isn't something I imagine Mazda would be interested in. Perhaps you could take it to an auto electrician and see if they could do it for you.

Yours is not the first Hyundai to have this problem and I have had positive results in the past. Company headquarters should be in touch with you soon about replacing your wheel.
