In 2006 the South Korean SsangYong company presented to the public her new brainchild, called SsangYong Actyon. The product was offered in the back of a liftback and a pickup truck, which in itself should have been very popular with the public. But, despite the efforts of the designers, at first the car was ambiguously accepted by consumers because of its extremely unusual design, which was a big blow for the company. However, a little later, he still managed to win the hearts of a fairly large number of people around the world due to his low price, reliability and unpretentiousness. As befits not only Korean, but also all other manufacturers, the machine has its advantages and disadvantages. Within the framework of this article, we will briefly “go over” the list of the main advantages of the car in question, but on weak spots and other design flaws are reversible Special attention to make searching easier new car, or warn you against buying a copy that is too shabby on secondary market.

At the beginning of its production and until 2011, the car was supplied only with a 2-liter diesel engine with 149 hp, but, after restyling in 2013, the line of engines was replenished with a 2.3-liter "gasoline" for 150 forces. By the way, this restyling affected only those cars, the production of which was established in Kazakhstan and is still ongoing.

How Actyon Sports is different from a simple Actyon

Oddly enough, many people are unaware of the difference between a simple Actyon and the "Sports" version of the same model. The answer is simple - SsangYong Actyon cars are produced exclusively in the format of a 5-door crossover, and Actyon Sports is a 4-door pickup truck, that's all.

Specifications:

• Engine: gasoline or diesel, in-line, 4-cylinder*;
• Power: 150 HP for gasoline, and 149 hp. for diesel;
• Torque: 360 N.m at 3500 rpm and 360 N.m. at 2800 rpm, respectively;
• Transmission: 6 automatic transmissions or 6 manual transmissions*;
• Body type: liftback or pickup*;
• Number of doors: 5;
• Drive: full;
• Fuel consumption (combined mode): 11.5 l/100 km for petrol, 8.0 l/100 km for diesel;
• Tank volume: 75 l.;
• Ground clearance: 187 mm;
• Dimensions: 4991x1910x1780 mm;
• Maximum weight: 2750 kg;
• Front suspension: independent, multi-link;
• Rear suspension: dependent, on springs;
• Brakes (front and rear): disc.

* - data are specified depending on the configuration.

What are the advantages and benefits of SangYong Action Sports:

Here is a short list of qualities for which the car in question received love and recognition from a huge army of its fans:

1. High level of permeability;
2. Roomy body and interior;
3. Low cost;
4. A large number of functions inherent in a modern car;
5. High dynamic performance (especially for versions with a diesel engine and with mechanical box transmissions);
6. Enough high quality finishing materials and interior ergonomics;
7. Low fuel consumption (again, this applies to diesel versions);
8. High level of sound insulation;
9. Good handling and smooth running;
10. Frame construction.

Weaknesses SsangYong Action Sports

As mentioned above, the machine has a number of shortcomings, namely:

• Thin and resistant to corrosion metal;
• Engine;
• Fuel system;
• Electrician;
• Automatic transmission;
• drive;
• Clutches on/off all-wheel drive;
• Power steering.

Thin and resistant to corrosion metal.

As befits the entire Korean auto industry, the main weakness this car is its resistance to aggressive environment Russian roads. The copious amount of salt that is used in winter period on our roads, capable of turning in a few years powerful SUV into a piece of rusty metal. That is why it is recommended to ride it as little as possible in the winter, and as often as possible to call for a car wash after such trips.

Although this car uses engines from Mercedes, this did not save it from problems in operation. Most often, the list of engine malfunctions includes seizures on the cylinders, strong and rapid wear connecting rod and piston group, coking of oil scraper and compression rings. In addition, the problems of operation include the tendency of gasoline engines to overheat, which can lead to very large losses in the owner's wallet.

Fuel system.

The poor quality of domestic fuel has always given many owners trouble, but in the case of SsangYong Actyon Sports, this problem is multiplied several times. The fact is that fuel injectors diesel engines they are simply not able to pass our "diesel fuel" through themselves for more than 80 thousand kilometers, and the cost of replacing them can reach up to 60 thousand rubles per set. The failure of this expensive node can be delayed by using several fuel filters and separator.

The next disease is constant "glitches" in the work of various onboard systems. This is caused by poor-quality and poorly thought-out wiring, which after several winters begins to actively oxidize, contact is lost and you will have to urgently visit an electrician. In some cases, wiring damage is so severe that starting the engine becomes impossible.

Automatic transmission.

If a manual transmission rarely causes complaints on any cars, then an automatic one already requires some attention. On the same car, to this node, it needs even more, because even if you carry out automatic transmission maintenance in accordance with all the regulations, no one can give you a guarantee that the next trip will not be the last for your transmission. Therefore, at least this machine and is positioned as an off-road vehicle, frequent trips in the absence of roads are highly undesirable.

This weakness manifests itself only during private and aggressive off-road trips and consists in the wear of the CV joints on the front axle, which is why they begin to crackle. Otherwise, the drives are quite reliable and, with due attention to themselves, they can travel more than one hundred thousand kilometers.

Clutch on/off all-wheel drive.

As well as the above, this defect can only be identified if the previous owner constantly tested his car where they had not even heard of the roads. In this car front axle is disengageable, and frequent engagement/disengagement of all-wheel drive will damage the clutch. The cost of replacing it can hit your budget hard, so when buying a used car, pay special attention to how quickly the car responds to the command to turn on and off the all-wheel drive.

Power steering.

Closes the list of shortcomings vulnerable spot, the essence of which lies in the constant leakage of hydraulic oil from the power steering pump due to poor-quality oil seals that are used in its production, as well as cracking of the connecting hoses. If in the first case the repair involves complete replacement pump (its cost is about 15 thousand rubles), then another frequent breakdown can be fixed for just a few thousand.

The main disadvantages of SsangYong Actyon Sports

Other weaknesses of this car include:

• Severely limited visibility, which is especially important in parking lots;
• Expensive parts;
• Ill-conceived design;
• Very low location of the main radiator, which is why there is a risk of damaging it;
• Weak transfer case;
• Very long base and overhangs with low ground clearance;
• Weak paintwork;
• Problems with finding a service for repair;
• Low liquidity in the secondary market;
• Problems with starting in cold weather (for diesel engines);
• The spare wheel is located under the body, which makes it very difficult to replace it.

Conclusion.

If you like big and passable SUVs, but you are not in the top of Forbes magazine and you don’t have money for luxury jeeps, then Ssang Yong Actyon Sports will be the perfect solution for you. Low price, a fairly high level of reliability, coupled with a large body and roomy interior will delight you for many years.

But you should never forget that this is a Korean car, and like all others, it has its pros and cons. Therefore, in addition to scheduled maintenance, periodically carry out preventive maintenance of all systems and mechanisms. Listen to your car more often, even if nothing should break, because its service life and the impressions that it will leave in your life after itself depend on your actions.

P.S.: Dear car owners, if you have noticed systematic breakdowns of any parts, assemblies of this model, please report it below in the comments.

Weaknesses, strengths and disadvantages of SsangYong Actyon Sports was last modified: December 22nd, 2018 by Administrator

75 thousand miles and several visits to the dealer

Since the time Korean cars appeared on Russian market and a wave of skepticism around them passed a lot of water under the bridge and the machines have proven themselves to be inexpensive and quite hardy units on which you can almost plow a garden. Looking at coverage Korean auto industry Kirov market, then, the most prominent representatives of the Far Eastern engineering industry is Ssang Yong. We took a few years ago and the car showed itself in terms of value for money, quality, comfort and running characteristics Not bad. But what does the person who bought this car face in the cabin?

Elena purchased a 2013 SsangYong Actyon dorestyle in the year the car left the assembly line in Kirov in a car dealership. Since then, the car has traveled 75 thousand kilometers not only in the Kirov latitudes, but also in the Altai land, Baikal, Georgia and other rather remote regions. In principle, according to the owner of the car, when buying a crossover, the convenience of traveling over long distances, its cross-country ability and compactness were taken into account. daily operation in the city and sufficient engine power for confident overtaking on the highway. 2 liter engine capacity 149 Horse power and a 6-speed manual transmission - the configuration of Elena's car.

According to Andrey, Elena's husband, the car did not require serious modifications from the moment of purchase. For a safer overcoming of mountain roads, an additional 3 elements of metal protection were supplied, which cost approximately 5-6 thousand rubles and an additional mesh for a false radiator grille - 500 rubles. In addition, the head unit was replaced and an alarm system with auto start was installed - 4 thousand and 9-10 thousand rubles, respectively.

Almost all repairs made to the car were included in the list of warranty services. According to the owners of the car, for 3 years it was necessary to carry out warranty repairs 6-7 times. The weakest point in a car is the timing chain. It is on this motor that it has to be changed every 15-20 thousand kilometers. If we talk about not warranty repair, then there were no special costs during the operation: replacement of the anther, rear floating silent block, rear pillar shock absorber.

Since the car was bought new and is currently still under warranty, it requires passing a regulated Maintenance at the dealer. The cost of maintenance, which must be carried out every 15 thousand kilometers, varies from 8 to 18 thousand rubles. Every 30 thousand kilometers it is necessary to do a collapse / collapse.

In addition to frequent maintenance, there is another problem that Andrey and Elena faced - the lack of analog spare parts. Catalog branded spare parts are unreasonably expensive and can not always be quickly delivered to the customer in a timely manner, so in the event of a non-warranty serious repair, you can lose a large amount of money, and well, time.

In general, if we talk about the car, then in terms of its consumer qualities and the needs of the buyer, it corresponds to the amount spent and is unpretentious in use. There are some complaints about the build quality. Actyon is assembled in Russia. However, this plays an important role in shaping the price of this car.

What are the pros and cons of cars with different fuel engines? Which car is more comfortable to drive? How big is the savings in liters and rubles? Finally, what does it cost to own a petrol and diesel car? To answer these questions, we took almost ideal competitors - two crossover ssangyong Actyon in the same trim levels and with the same transmissions. Two-liter engines, 149 hp. Only on a red car - diesel, and on a black one - gasoline. This is just the first difference. We, not counting the body color, found four more.

PETROL - DIESEL

two liter Gas engine black SsangYong Actyon produces 149 hp at 3500-4000 rpm and 197 Nm at 3500-4000 rpm. The orange fellow turbodiesel with the same working volume and the same power differs in a much more solid moment - 360 N m, and already at 2000–2500 rpm. The transmissions are the same - all-wheel drive, with a six-speed "automatic" - but, of course, with gear ratios changed according to the motors.

How much are extra newtonmeters and higher dynamic parameters(maximum speed and acceleration)? In early February, the price of a diesel Aktion was 60 thousand rubles. higher than petrol similar equipment. It is impossible to predict how car prices will change in the future, but we will proceed from the fact that the difference between gasoline and diesel versions will remain about the same.

116

The test run showed that a diesel car consumes an average of 1.5–2.0 liters of fuel less per 100 kilometers. This also matches the passport data.

The test run showed that a diesel car consumes an average of 1.5–2.0 liters of fuel less per 100 kilometers. This also matches the passport data.

SLOWER - FASTER

The dynamics was measured on rolled snow at a temperature of +2 ºС. Of course, our results are very different from the passport ones. However, in this case, we were not interested in absolute indicators, but in comparative ones - obtained on different motors. To complete the picture, we tested the cars twice: in the standard mode for our tests (curb weight plus two riders) and with full passport weight.

The fact that the diesel SsangYong is faster is immediately clear, without any measurements - you barely press the gas pedal properly. The seconds shown by an impartial device only confirm this. And when accelerating to 100 km / h, and when accelerating from 60 to 100 km / h and from 80 to 120 km / h, the red-haired Actyon easily beats its gasoline counterpart.

The difference is especially impressive when the cars are loaded to capacity. The engine of the gasoline Actyon strainedly roars, accelerating the carcass weighing 2.2 tons. The diesel SsangYong makes everything easy and makes it possible to feel it: with intense acceleration, the back is noticeably pressed into the back of the chair.

It is clear that the possibilities of a 150-horsepower turbodiesel are not unlimited: with increasing speed, the pressure noticeably weakens. But when accelerating to 100 km / h, the diesel Actyon easily “brings” a gasoline competitor 2.5–3.5 s, and this is a lot.

The test run solidified first impressions. It is possible to keep up with a black petrol Aktion behind a diesel ginger when overtaking and on long climbs, keeping cruising 100–110 km / h, only if you constantly press the gas pedal to the floor. And this significantly affects the acoustic comfort. Both cars are far from quiet. But at quiet ride the noise comes mainly from below, from the road, and with intense acceleration, the engines take over. Moreover, the diesel SsangYong turns out to be quieter than the gasoline one, since the “automatic” of the latter often tucks lower gears, forcing the engine to spin up to a ringing.

In general, ride diesel car easier and more enjoyable. There is no need to press the pedal all the way - on the contrary, there is a feeling of power reserve, and this is not only pleasant, but also convenient, and therefore safe.

HIGHER FLOW - LOWER FLOW

We measured fuel consumption in two test runs - first with a partial load (driver and one passenger), and then with a full one. We drove the same route, including city streets, busy suburban roads and freeways.

116–2

Diesel Actyon spent on average 1.5–2.0 liters of fuel less than gasoline for 100 km. We expected more savings, but this is not a small amount. Especially in terms of annual mileage.

Why consumption is less? First, diesel is a priori more economical. In addition, gasoline Actyon often moves to low gears. But changing the load on fuel consumption had little effect. The diesel engine feels a little weaker, which is quite expected, but this almost did not affect fuel consumption. It is possible that on other machines, especially with smaller engines, the difference will be more noticeable.

WARMER - COLDER

Frosts during the test, as luck would have it, gave way to a thaw. But +1 ºС is also not Africa, so we decided not to cancel the interior heating test. Moreover, already in the preliminary run it was noticed that for comfortable ride in a diesel vehicle, the air conditioner must be set to a higher temperature.

The interiors were warmed up for half an hour, after starting the cold engines after a night stop - after setting +22 ºС and turning on the Auto mode.

06 SsangYong zr03–15

The temperature was measured in the front and rear of the cars, at the level of the riders' heads. The results obtained were averaged.

No revelations: the interior of a gasoline car warms up faster. At first, the difference is small: after 15 minutes in petrol car thermometers showed +5 ºС, in diesel - only half a degree less. But after another 15 minutes, the gasoline Actyon won a landslide victory: +10 against +6.4 ºС in diesel.

Of course, on the move, the difference would be less, since the diesel warms up faster under load. But city cars that get stuck in traffic as soon as they leave the parking lot in the morning will behave approximately the same as in our test.

CHEAPER - EXPENSIVE

It remains to figure out what the advantages and disadvantages of both cars will cost.

We bought gasoline at 35.5 rubles per liter, and diesel fuel at 34.5 rubles.

They are very similar, but still different: diesel Actyon is not only more economical, but also noticeably faster than gasoline

Consumables for gasoline and diesel Aktion cost about the same. But scheduled maintenance a diesel car is prescribed already 5,000 km after purchase, and then you need to visit a service station every 10 thousand km. Gasoline Actyon needs service every 15 thousand km.

Simple calculations show: on a run of 105 thousand km (a multiple of the frequency of maintenance of the gasoline version), the owner of the gasoline Aktion will save on after-sales service 45.3 thousand rubles (at the prices of the beginning of February). Fine!

Now let's calculate the cost of fuel. If we take our test costs as a guideline, then we will have to pay as much as 72.5 rubles for gasoline. more than solar.

So, the difference in operating costs is 27.2 rubles. in favor of diesel.

And now let's think about the prices of cars: the diesel Actyon is 60,000 rubles more expensive! It turns out that the buyer of a new diesel machine with a run of 105,000 km, you will have to pay 32.8 thousand "extra" rubles out of your pocket. This is a price for a more economical and high-spirited car, very convenient for country trips - especially if you often drive with a large load and a trailer.

It is clear that in the case of other cars, the difference may turn out to be different, but the trend can be traced: driving a diesel car is more profitable, especially if you have big runs, but the higher price initially nullifies this gain. And if you grab a low-quality diesel fuel and "get" for cleaning fuel system, then buying a diesel car will completely lose its economic sense.

The SsangEng company has been selling a brand of car called Aktion for more than a year. During this time, the car managed to come up with various naming options from “Akshena” to “Akshena”. What "action" problems most often fall to the share of second-generation Ssang Yong Actyon used cars? Now we will find out.

Foreword

New Actyon, which appeared on the market in 2010, is a crossover with load-bearing body, and not the first generation of frame SUVs. In many foreign markets it is known as Korando. 2013 brought new restyling cars. For a very long time, Aktion was going to Russian plant Sollers. Recently, the car has again undergone in terms of exterior and technical stuffing.

Body

On the Internet, they say that Actyon is covered with such a thin layer of paint that it will not last long, and the body in the places of chips instantly rots to holes. Operation empirically shows the opposite. The car has an average quality paintwork and, in principle, it is more than enough. It is worth mentioning that chips and cracks still appear over time and begin to rust. These small defects can be easily removed by purchasing an inexpensive rust remover, because the corrosion in this case is only superficial.

The chrome elements are a bit disappointing. Sometimes, after our harsh winter days, they begin to become cloudy and swell. This is especially true of the bar on the tailgate.

power unit

Initially, 3 types of engine were installed on the Ssang Yong Actyon of the ӏӏ-th generation: a 2.0-liter gasoline engine with a power of 149 hp. and two diesel engines with capacities of 149 and 179 hp. The latter was taken out of service, but according to the experience of motorists, it turned out to be the most acceptable for such a car - 149 hp was not enough for a comfortable ride.

In the secondary market, diesel Aktions have gained the greatest popularity. Gasoline engines have difficulty starting in harsh winters. In this case, the cold unit may start, but then stall for no reason. And so several times. Dealers offer to avoid this problem by flashing the engine, but this rarely helps. Perhaps the reason lies in the fuel rail, which is installed at the wrong angle, as some experienced mechanics say. They offer to immediately change all the o-rings along with the fitting of the ramp.

Diesel units on the Ssang Yong Actyon ӏӏ-th generation are reliable. Sometimes there is a breakdown of the temperature sensor exhaust gases in the turbocharger due to its short service life. On average, the replacement of such a sensor occurs after 30-40 thousand kilometers. If this is not done, then dashboard will burn all the time check engine and the car will lose traction.

Transmission

Ssang Yong Actyon is equipped with a 6-speed manual and automatic transmission. Moreover, the majority (namely, about 35%) falls on automatic transmissions. In general, the transmission does not cause much criticism.

There are minor problems associated with the operation of the car, for example, extraneous noise when shifting gears in a manual transmission. Usually, to eliminate them, it is only necessary to adjust the thrust in the shift levers. Automatic transmission suffers from jerks when shifting some gears, but it is not always advisable to ask the control unit. There are complaints about underfilling of oil in the automatic transmission: from 500 ml. up to 1.5 l.

A few words need to be said about all-wheel drive. This is one of the many reasons why it is worth taking the ӏӏ-th generation Ssang Yong Actyon in the secondary market. Four-wheel drive on this machine can rightfully be called such. It is quite reliable and will not let you down in difficult times.

Interior

The SsangEng Aktion salon is typical for this price class of cars. Inexpensive finishing materials cause discomfort during operation, squeaks appear already at the first kilometers of run. It is better to purchase an additional braid on the steering wheel to prevent bald spots on the native. From electronics, weak points are cruise control, an ESP sensor and rear power windows.

Suspension

Simple Ssang Yong New Actyon(McPherson / multi-link) does not require large investments, although some “sores” are still present. If suddenly the suspension starts to play, you need to broach all its connections. The next thing that needs to be replaced is from inexpensive Supplies- these are the anthers of the CV joint.

30-40 thousand kilometers will bring the replacement of wheel bearings. They very often by this time also fail. Next, pay attention to the rear stabilizer. Its mounting bracket is a short-lived thing.

50 thousand kilometers - stabilizer bar. The original will have to be bought in the collection. In principle, all other parts of the suspension pass up to 100 thousand kilometers, and maybe even more.

An expensive replacement will be required if extraneous noises are heard when turning the steering wheel from its extreme positions - the lower part of the steering shaft assembly with electric power.

Summing up

Ssang Yong Actyon ӏӏ-th generation is still a fairly reliable urban crossover that does not require large investments during operation. Identified deficiencies do not worsen this car, it is still one of the successfully sold in the secondary market.

21.10.2016

Ssang Yong Actyon (SsangYong Actyon) - the car is far from new and has been successfully sold in large quantities for more than a year. In the masses, the car is called differently, for example, in the STS it is referred to as Akshen, it is also called by employees of insurance companies. This baton was also intercepted by a part of motorists, gradually modernizing "Action" into "Action". But how much “action” is in this car, and what problems you will face after buying a used Sang Yong Aktion of the second generation, now we will try to find out.

A bit of history:

In 2010, the first generation of Sang Yong Aktion was replaced by New Actyon, the prefix "New" appeared in the name in order not to confuse new model with the previous version, which was in no hurry to leave the market. In many markets, the second generation Actyon is sold under the name "Korando". New Actyon is no longer frame SUV, like the first generation, but an ordinary crossover with a monocoque body. The design of the car was developed by the best designer of the century, Giorgetto Giugiaro, who drew cars such as the Bugatti » and « Ferrari » . In 2012, at the Geneva Motor Show, the New Actyon was presented in the back of a pickup truck, which has nothing to do with a conventional crossover. New Actyon underwent another restyling in 2013, the changes affected the front and rear of the body, the interior of the car and the technical stuffing. Most of the vehicles sold in the CIS were assembled in Russia at the SOLLERS – Far East plant. The release of the new generation is scheduled for early 2017.

Advantages and disadvantages of Sang Yong Aktion with mileage.

There is an opinion that the paintwork of Sang Yong Aktion is thin, and the body iron in the places of chips rots to holes, however, real experience operation says otherwise. Paintwork of medium quality, but it cannot be said that chips and scratches do not appear on it at all, nor can it be said that the metal does not rust in the places of chips, however, the corrosion centers are superficial and can be easily removed with a rust converter. Chrome-plated body trim elements become cloudy after a couple of winters and sometimes begin to swell, especially on the nameplates and the tailgate trim.

Power units

Three power units are available on the second generation Sang Yong Aktion: gasoline, with a 2.0 engine (149 hp) and diesel 2.0 (149, 179 hp). At first, there were two diesel engines, then more powerful power unit was discontinued. But, as operating experience showed, the 179 hp engine was the most successful, since 149 hp. not enough for this car. Machines with gasoline engines in the secondary market much less than diesel ones. Many Sang Yong Aktion gasoline engines have a cold start problem, especially in winter. For example, cold engine it can start, and after a few seconds it will stall, and so on several times. To fix the problem, in dealer center offer to replace the firmware, but it helps very rarely. Some mechanics suggest that the reason for this behavior of the motor is fuel rail because it is installed at the wrong angle. If the car is not under warranty, then you can bend the ramp in an unofficial service and change the o-rings.

Diesel engines are very reliable, the only thing that gives owners a headache is the exhaust gas temperature sensor on the turbocharger. The sensor has a short service life, because of this, most of the problems of diesel engines. For example, the car loses traction, and the indicator on the instrument panel lights up. check engine". Sensor replacement is required every 30-40 thousand km, such a repair costs 50-100 USD.

Transmission

Sang Yong Aktion is equipped with a six-speed manual or a 6-speed automatic transmission gears. Most of the cars on the secondary market are equipped with automatic transmissions, mechanics are found, on average, in 35% of cars. As the operating experience showed, both transmissions are very reliable, but some operational shortcomings were still identified in them. On machines with a manual transmission, sometimes when you turn on the first and second gears, you can hear extraneous knock or crunch; to fix the problem, you need to adjust the shift lever rods. In the operation of the automatic transmission, which is paired with diesel engines, jerks are observed when switching from 1st to 2nd, as well as from 2nd to 3rd gear, as well as jerks after a stop. Flashing the control unit does not always help fix the problem. Also, in this transmission, there are not rare cases of underfilling of oil, from 0.5 liters to 1.5 liters. The reliability of the all-wheel drive does not cause any complaints, but on its performance characteristics there are complaints. Many owners note the untimely connection of all-wheel drive.

Reliability running Sang Yong Aktion

The suspension of the car has a simple design: front - MacPherson strut, rear - multi-link. The second generation of Sang Yong Aktion is one of those cars in which the suspension starts to sound quite quickly, that is, after 20-30 thousand kilometers. Many experienced owners decide this problem broach all suspension connections. If we talk about reliability, then most often you will have to change the anthers of the CV joint, fortunately, its cost is not high - 15-20 USD. Also, wheel bearings fail quite quickly, they last for 30-40 thousand kilometers. mounting bracket rear stabilizer- 40-50 thousand km. The stabilizer struts can withstand no more than 50,000 km, they ask for 25 cu for the original strut. The rest of the suspension elements live 100,000 km or more. If, when the steering wheel is rotated from the extreme position to the opposite, clicks or a crunch are heard, it is necessary to replace the lower part of the steering shaft assembly with the EUR, about 1000 USD will have to be paid for the replacement.

Salon

The quality of finishing materials and the assembly of the Sang Yong Aktion salon is not the most best quality as a result, extraneous creaks begin to bother even on almost new cars. The quality does not stand up to criticism, on cars with a mileage of 40-45 thousand km, the steering wheel is covered with bald spots and looks as if the car drove 150-200 thousand km. Quite common cases of failure of cruise control, ESP sensor, rear power windows.

Outcome:

Sang Yong Aktion - urban crossover great opportunities, which will appeal to a fairly large audience of motorists due to its good looks, the presence of all-wheel drive and low cost in the secondary market. If we talk about reliability, then despite a number of identified shortcomings, the car can be classified as reliable. And those problems that have been identified are more related to the category of children, and do not require expensive repairs.

Advantages:

If you are the owner of this car model, please describe the problems that you had to face during the operation of the car. Perhaps it is your review that will help readers of our site when choosing a car.
