No, but the manufacturer does. Hyundai/Kia transmissions are the epitome of reliability
Do you want to wait a few years and find out that the trans is junk, or the engine is a sludge monster, or the heatercore/radiator rusts out or clogs or... ?
Every automaker should know what they're doing. Too bad that recalls, TSBs, and known issues exist with them. Known issues are usually all those problems on the 'specific auto forums' that come out after a few years. Because of the internet, there is no hiding the TSBs and recalls anymore, and dealers can't play dumb.
If you want facts, just wait about 5 years and we'll have them.
Obviously, some people fall for the car-payment-lease-payment eternally for life crowd. Others want to keep their investments as long as possible, and live without a monthly payment or note.
Its your choice, $20000 every 5 years, or $20000 and $200 maintenance until it wears out on you in 15 years or more.
I have a 30 year old car, 20 year old car, 12 years old car, and a 2 year old car in the driveway. I don't have the 'common issues' that every has with my Ford, Mazda, Toyota, and Kia. No one in my family does with their vehicles either(Toyota, VW, Ford, Jeep, Mazda, Nissan). Mods, upgrades, and preventive maintenance works for me because obviously the automakers do NOT know what their doing.
