As for the '06 Sonata, it was noted for having some nickel and dime problems with the horns, windshield washer pump, and outside temp. sensor when it was new. I know of nothing major - although there were some persistent complaints about under carriage noise.
The V6 engine is probably about the best thing about the car. Unfortunately, they dropped it on the new Sonata's. I am kinda looking at Nissans now since they still have the V6 as well as a coupe.
But, I've had my Sonata's five years now and will probably keep them for a few more.
Don't bother with CR's inscrutable reports - you're already at the best source of information - namely this forum.Also will this be a reliable car? She doesn't make much money so she wants something reliable since it would be painful for her to be hit with big repair bills.
