No, not at all. Hyundai's gains in product quality have been
impressive. I just think that the current rating is too much due to
bribery and not enough due (yet) to underlying product quality. I have
no doubt that Hyundai will get there, but I don't think they are there
yet. I'd place them in the top 10 probably, but they aren't ahead of
Toyota by any stretch of the imagination.

Re: 2006 Hyundai quality report from J D Powers
One thing to notice is that this report is on "initial quality" and not "long
term quality". Don't get me wrong, I think Hyundai is making excellent cars and
are a lot more reliable than any domestic cars, but they are not in the same
league as Japanese or German manufactures.
I've had some minor problems with problems on my sister's 99 Elantra (90k miles
) which just shouldn't happen at the time they occurred (spark plug wires at
50k, O2 sensor at 45k, fuel pump connectors needed to be cleaned at 60k). Also
the paint they use doesn't seem to hold up. There are dull marks on sections of
the car and that's with 2 coats of wax per year. My 95 Integra looks almost like
new even today.

I agree, to a point.
All I have to go by is MY initial quality. After 4 months and 4K miles,
only 1 problem. (ka-thunk in the trunk). That represents the best build
quality of any car I've owned, by far. This is my 7th new car. I've owned
VW, Audi, Mazda, and Toyota, and none of them were close to my Sonata in
initial build quality. Of course, each successive car I buy has better build
quality, so I chalk some of it up to general improvement in the industry.
The Sonata owner's I'm talking to also have very few problems. When they
do, they get pretty upset, so I don't think they are holding back on
reporting. The problems I am reading about are mostly niggling problems, and
many aren't even related to build quality. I bet if you took away the
ka-thunk in the trunk, Hyundai would have been even higher in the JD Power
survey. That's because the Sonata made up such a high percentage of Hyundai
sales in 2005.

Re: 2006 Hyundai quality report from J D Powers
I have been driving a Sonata GLS V6 since December 2005 and am very
satisfied with the initial quality of the vehicle. I am one of the customer
that filled J.D. Power's surveys and sent it in. I don't know about bribery
and all, but I sent in top initial quality rating based on my own
experience.
I truly felt (and still feel) that I got a much better car (feature-wise)
for much lower price compared to Camry or Accord. I am yet to find any
significant problem or annoyance.
I ride in my friend's new Camry to work (in the passenger seat). It is 2006
model bought in 2005. I don't see any difference between Sonata and Camry. I
know for a fact that long-term quality of Camry is great because I used to
own a Camry. Time will tell how Sonata will perform long-term.
Before November 2006, we didn't even consider Hyundai. We are currently
contemplating replacing our 1999 Sienna with a Hyundai or Kia.
