Comment: What you talkin' about?  My 07 Pontiac Grand Prix and 08 Buick Allure, nearly 11 and 10 years old respectively haven't had "crap start" yet.  Both with around 215K km.  The Pontiac has had brakes and a vent valve replaced, the Buick brakes, bearings and a ps line, hardly major. My 15 year old Escape has also been reliable.  Funny you are now complaining about your Hyundai you were previously touting to the high heavens.
