Used 2005 Hyundai Accent Consumer Reviews
Nice Accent
A nice compact for the price. Very reliable. Handles well, but a little bumpy on uneven roads. Great warranty. Only problem has been to replace spark plug wires after check engine light displayed, and this was handled promptly by the Hyundai dealer.
Love Hyundai
I had a '94 Excel before this and although that was the best car in the world, the Accent is basically it's younger sister. I love hatchbacks to begin with and prefer Asian cars. The Accent will take whatever you throw at it, even though it's not exactly in a big hurry. If you want a powerhouse, this isn't the right car; the Accent's all about economy. Handles great, fits in anywhere, I complain if my MPG dips to 27 (only in winter - when it warms up it's back pushing on 40). Also, never having dealt with a warranty before, I was impressed by how simple Hyundai is to deal with. The speed sensors went out & I was a bit late finding my paperwork to transfer the warranty but it was no problem.

Good Daily Driver
Daily driver and use to deliver pizza. Mileage in city without air running is about 27mpg, with air running is about 25mpg. Definatly less than advertised but can't complain with gas prices. Interior quality is average. The seatbelt receiver cover came apart a month or so after purchase, epoxy to the rescue. Lights went out behind the A/C in the dash and behind the automatic transmission panel but no big deal. The driver seat is starting to wear on the door side, but I get in and out of my car several hundred times a week so I have accelerated wear. A little low on power with the air on but overall it is a good, safe, economical little car.
Transmission Reliability ChallengevF
For those individuals that like a small peppy economical car in the Hyundai line this will fill the bill. I have 135,000 miles on mine but I had to replace the transmission at 96,000 miles. Before you buy——check carefully the transmission.

My first new car!
After what I have had to deal with for the past 2 years this car has been a blessing. I have no credit so I need a cheap small car. Hyundai acctualy got me credit and sold me the car I drive the GT version so the the ride is sporty. I only paid 12,700. Ive got side airbags, power everything and even aircondtion plus to top it off a great sound system with cd. The noisy engin is the only down fall, but hey its comfortable and traveling to work school I am going to keep this car for as long as I can. Great gas milage also. I find the car cute. This is deffinatly a chick car though. My boyfriend likes it but has fun pretending he's driving a go cart lol. Buy this car low price and reliable .
