    All engines used in Hyundai vehicles sold in the U.S. since 1995 are
    interference engines.

  3. Thank you for the kind reply. I had hoped for clearance reply. Good reason
    to avoid.
    Best,

  4. Avoid what? You're probably going to find that this is the case with
    most cars on the market. There is nothing wrong with interference
    engines. You just have to be diligent about changing the timing belt at
    the recommended intervals. IIRC, every car I've owned has had an
    interference engine and I've never had a related problem.

  6. Go back and read Hyundaitech's post on this. He works on these cars for
    a living, so he should know.
