Sonata Limited 2.0L

OH MY GOD, PLEASE PLEASE AND PLEASE DO NOT BUY A HYUNDAI SONATA WITH TURBO ENGINE, IT IS NOT ONLY PAIN IN A.. BUT ALSO PAIN EVERYWHERE. POR FAVOR DO NOT BUYYY.

Anyway, I made a mistake, I was going to buy a German car, but everyone said DO NOT BUY because it is expensive maintenance. So, I bought a 2011 Hyundai Sonata 2.0 which has 274hp. Unfortunately, Korean Engineers forgot something that this car cannot afford this high horsepower. OKEY CAR GOES AMAZING FAST, but ZERO REALIBITY. One day I was in the freeway, and a sound occurred it was exactly same sound that I gave the video URL, so I took car to dealership in Tustin CA, they checked and said piece of engine cracked, they did not give specific reason and they said it is CASUAL and RECALL, so they shipped a brand-new engine, It tooooook 2 months to get it. Therefore, my car had been in service TWO months. They gave me with new engine, I am driving right now but still anxious that anything can occur suddenly. I am planning to sell ASAP.
