I just bought a 2006 Hyundai Sonata LX. It has the 3.3 Liter V6 engine. I’ve heard mixed reviews on how reliable it is. It’s only at 105k miles, and all routine and major maintenance has been taken care of. Never been in an accident. Do you think it will last a long time? Anything I should look out for?

spoiler: Hyundai and "reliable" do not belong in a sentence together.
Do you think it will last a long time?
It's already lasted a long time, nearly 19 years. How much longer do you realistically expect to get out of it? Hopefully you didn't pay much for the thing.
Hyundais of that time period were better than they are today, but still no Toyota or Honda when it comes to longevity.
