    Is there a setting to keep headlights from coming on in garage?

    Have not been able to find a way to keep my headlights from coming on while I back out of the garage with my '23 Y Perf in daylight hours. I hit the off button in the menu, which turns them off, but it happens each time I start the car. There is no need to keep cycling those lights on and off...

    Is Discount Tire warranty worth the cost?

    I called DT to find out how the tire warranty program works. I was told that if I get a puncture that is unable to be patched/plugged, I would get a brand new replacement tire OR the $$ equivalent. They told me on the MYP the tires average a bit over $400 each, and the warranty lasts for the...

    Found out today how much of the $7,500 fed rebate I qualified for (2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5)

    I sold my 2021 MYLR to buy a new Ioniq 5 in March 2022 which at the time qualified for the $7,500 max rebate. Well, turned out to be a bad idea - my Hyundai developed the dead 12v battery problem and I am waiting for my lemon lawsuit to be resolved. On Feb. 3, 2023, I ordered a MYP and am...

    Why so many new inventory cars with under 50 miles ?

    In south FL area, inventory shows '22s and '23s available. The '22s are listed as demo's, the '23s as new with under 50 miles. I tried calling for info but on hold so long I hung up. I'm wondering if the '23s are rejects due to imperfections, or why would they be in inventory. It's not like it's...

    How far will current selling prices fall after Jan. 1 ?

    With $7,500 rebates around the corner, I'm wondering how far current prices will fall to compete with new purchases. I will be in the market around Jan. 1 and anxious to see how much the value of used '22s AND '23s will drop. If there is a substantial price drop, I'd probably be happy buying a...

    Order a Y Performance today and EDD is April ??

    Just checked website to see a very short wait for a YP. Has anyone submitted their deposit only to find the real EDD is much longer? Is this just a ploy to get the order, or is the wait really this short?

    With prices of used cars through the roof, I decided to sell my 2021 MY on Jan. 8, making a nice profit.
