Great car except for air suspension
Purchased used in 2019 with 74000 miles. Great car with exception of air ride. Had purchased warranty. After 1 year + and over $6000.00 in repair cost the local Equus dealers service manager finally told me “ we don’t know how to fix it”. I found after market suspension (conventional), had my mechanic install and been great ever sense. When the air ride worked it was great. When it failed it would knock your fillings out. Boos to Hyundai for not stepping up to the plate on this.

Extended warranty writer’s need must be honest
I had a bad experience transmission went out while under warranty they replaced it then that one went out within 2 or 3months then they replace it and now I am on the 4 th transmission Hyundai needs to do something about this crap it’s not fair to the consumer And I always took it to the dealer that I bought it from for all my maintenance extended warranty writer’s don’t lie to the consumer this kind of stuff leaves a bad taste in your mouth this dealer has had my car for almost 3 weeks and when I ask for a loaner car until they fixed mine because the transmission went out again they said we don’t have any loaner cars dealerships need to be more honest as well but treat the consumer right this dealer is making good money treat the consumer right I trusted this dealer for my work I feel now that was a mistake I hope when I get my car it’s running good like it was when I left it in their care 3 weeks ago when I get my car back I will let everyone know how it’s running love this car but I can never really trust a Hyundai dealer to work on my car again can’t trust this dealership I have got to find someone I can trust I believe that transmission went out at 88,000 miles I am on my 4 th transmission and it’s only a 156,000 miles something is not right

Hyundai Equus
I love my equus 2013 but this morning I cranked it up and it was making a tap noise so I will be taking it to the dealer I bought it from the dealer I bought the guy that wrote the warranty told me something different extended warranty writers need to be honest and explain your coverage and not BS the consumer I wouldn’t recommend purchasing from the dealer I bought mines from

Most comfortable and reliable car I’ve owned.
My Equus is the most solidly built and comfortable car I’ve ever owned. If you are looking for an inexpensive MB or BMW with excellent safety features, carefree dependability and top notch quality features, this is it. I travel 60-70k miles a year and couldn’t be more pleased with Hyundai’s 2013 Equus.

Feel like I stole this pre owned 2013 Equus Sig
Great car. Lots of power in a 429 HP V8. Best value in a luxury car found. Nice car. I bought a pre owned for under $20K that was clean aND then more clean. The wife has now confiscated the Equus. GREAT trip car and 17 speakers make for good concert sound . The pre owned market for these cars are a steal. Really. Do the math on depreciation of the vehicle with 1st owner then 2nd owner and the difference is so in favor on the 2nd owner. Huge.

A Best Kept Secret of Luxury & Performance
Having driven a number of luxury vehicles including Volvos, Audi's, BMW's, Mercedes and others, I can unequivocally say that my 2013 Equus (Signature) tops them all in virtually EVERY respect. When I was making my final decision -- over 18 months and 30K miles ago -- I was choosing between a loaded Audi A8 and the Equus. I took spirited, solo test drives with both cars and it was objectively no contest b/w these two unquestionably fine cars -- Equus was smoother, every bit as comfortable, and as refined in most every respect, yet … $15K less expensive. And I am constantly being stopped at gas stations and even in traffic by knowledgeable 'car lovers' like me who see the unique Equus badging and ask, what IS that car? It has a commanding grille, beautiful lines, and performance to match -- smooth power from the V8, seamless shifting, and a cavernous back seat that every passenger has always said truly feels like an executive car or limo. The only reason for my '4' above under performance is lack of AWD; but I have driven this car thru two brutal snowy winters in New England, and with 4 Nokian WRG3 all weather tires, year-round, it has all the stability and handling you need if you know how to drive in bad weather. I could honestly not imagine a car I would rather have right now than my Equus … and I paid an obscenely low price for it, less than $30K, with a 'service for life' dealer arrangement that is ideal. There likely a not many of these left now that the Genesis G80 and G90 are launched, but I promise if you can find one, you will be as thrilled as I am with it!

2013 pre owned with 60k for $18k I stole it
Quite. Smooth and very powerful. My wife loves this car and I am a big fan. Super good music system. Lots of WELL THOUGHT OUT features. Its a Korean limo and decked out. No one knows what brand of car it is and that is the cool factor. Getting 24 mpg mixed driving. Getting a speeding ticket is easy. Research the standard features and then go test drive one . Wonderful pre owned deals on these high performance luxury sedans . So go buy one. Save a ton of jack and be happy.

The absolute best car available.
I am selling my Cadillac so I can get a Hyundai Equus. This is the TOP luxury car in my opinion. Not even going to look at anything else.
