Not sure. But there have a lot of negative feedback for the Hyundai car quality and Service in the Facebook,Cari ,Autoworld.... Especially the non-solve intermittent problem become their customer nightmare further more SC not care at all. What for if you buy the new car with the nice look but always create the various problem ??

Ford also under SD... Maybe you can try it and see why many people dare not touch a Ford

Now got another offer of a slightly damage inspira some more...

Slightly damage inspira...???

Oh ya... My friend in car tender business... The inspira should be damage during logistic.. So it goes to tender...

can't agree more.

Ford is CBU from Thailand, Elantra come in with SKD/CKD. Different.

Forte was not as popular as Elantra when it was launched back then. And Forte is also one and a half year slower than Korea. Elantra commenced sales in Korea back in August 2010. Now Feb 2012 in Malaysia also one and a half year. Is Naza any faster??

Yup, and they are gonna put them back in the facelift 6 months later......

Only Forte makes everyone happy. if you look at Kia's sedan range in Malaysia, you can see that there is a huge gap between 98k and 140k. And as a result Rio will be priced at the same range as Forte EX, which is an overlap.

In my opinion, forte is way out of this segments league. Sometimes when I hear people comparing forte with civic/Altis, it makes me giggle. To me, it is more in city/dugong(vios)'s range but with a 2.0 engine advantage. When you compare avante, do it with civic or Altis. You don't go comparing a c-class with a Camry.

Back to the topic, I believe SD is really doing a bad job launching this car despite all the hello impossible crap. Yes the car is nice and all that but what are they doing on the service centers? People who boast how great sonata was, at the end of the day the volume sold is still low but of course improved. Same goes to forte. What I am trying to say is to strengthen the brand, they should improve on their 3s centers and make it convenient. Honda and Toyota is like dell. A lot of people hate it but still buy it as their after service is great.

They are bad in some way but not everything is bad. Maybe you should try to understand that it is impossible for Sonata to sell at same volume as the 3 japs because it is imported instead of made in SEA like the trio. And the price of Sonata is quite stable now compared to Teana as well. You can hardly get huge discount off SOnata while Teana give you free bodykit ,GPS and cash discount. Someone said the SC is bad but as a Hyundai owner I am perfectly happy with my SC. Toyota and Honda don't have 100% good SC but they do have better SC. Toyota and Honda started their business in Malaysia since 40-50years ago. Hyundai is here for less than 20 years.

this is because reliability and service important cos a car got more than 10000 parts. if break down still need fixing at the shortest possible time and preferably 1st time right, not go sc 4-5times to complain... of course, unless used as white elephant buy and just keep in driveway as a home decoration.

also, whether sc is here for 40 years or 20years, the fact is you buying the product in 2012 ie now, so service should already been established to 2012 standard since they at other countries can do it to the level of 1st world standard, surely replicating a good SC here, dun need 20years ..
cheers,
