I have had this car for about half a year and am not pleased at all. Ride quality is poor along with power, and looks. I figured that hey! It was alot cheaper than other cars but I dont like it. Sure the warrenty is good but who wants to have a good warrenty with a poor car? I dont. I will never use a better price for an excuse to buy a car again!

Bought the car in 2002 - first transmission oil change was around 45,000 mi, I changed the timing belt around 69,000 but the mechanic told me tha124,141,799t was still in good condition and changed the spark plugs and the belts for water and alternator around 90,000 mi; other than that just oil change (only synthetic) and tires. I have 107,000 mi and no problem I get 31 mi/gallon in city driving

This car is a great value. Mine has every option available and I paid only $10,000. It is not an excellent car in any respect, but the quality of materials and workmanship is quit good. I will absolutly consider buying another Hyundai.

I owned 3 Honda Civics before trying out the Accent. "Pleasantly surprised" would be an understatement. I can't imagine a better car for the price. It's loaded with more features than I would have ever expected. It's really peppy and runs like a champ (so far!). The Hyundai warranty is what sold me...if they are willing to stand by their products, I was willing to give it a try. I'm glad I did. Terrific around town car and even good for longer hauls. A great 2nd family car (I have a Hyundai Santa Fe to do the real family hauling).

I bought this car used in Jan of 05 with 36,000 miles on it.I put an average of 20,000 miles on this car every year.I have very few problems with this car.It's low on fuel usage averaging 28-30 mpg(I don't know if this reflects "in town" driving as my day begins and ends with a 15 mile commute each day),and up to 38 mpg on a roadtrip with all the right conditions.Problems I've had in the last 4 years:replaced the tires twice, warped rotors, burns oil and the guard underneath the car tore loose after rubbing up on too many curbs- the car has fairly low clearance (Ha, and bad judgement on my part!)Overall,this car has been a value beyond words!Too bad it is overly cramped with my family of 4!
