This new car, is like a cracker box, rides ruff, your can hear every sound in and outside the car.There is no console between the seats like my 2016,when you back up the radio goes wonky. When it rains water gets between the door and the frame and it has frozen all 4 of my doors shut

Really love this car - Deal for $ - Hyundai Bad CS

We love this car. Got end of model year deal on a 2018. For $16,300, after rebates we got the limited, heated seats, sunroof, android auto, emer auto braking, leather steering wheel. Great trim and finish for the price. Runs and looks great Great gas mileage! Only wishes are blind spot and smaller rims. The car has great looking rims, but like all upper trim cars today, the rims are stupid large, leaving very low profile tires, which give a stiffer ride and are more prone to sidewall pinches on pot holes (we have already had one tire ruined on a pothole). Still happy a year+ later, no issues. 2 years in, had first repair (other than maintenance), blower motor module, covered under warranty (would have been $180 otherwise). 4 years in, blower was not the issue. Had big issue with evaporator freezing and having no heat/defrost in winter! Dealer did not want to fix. Called Hyundai Customer Service for assistance. Terrible would not call us back! Finally, dealer got a new service manager who really wanted to help us. He got it fixed, big job! Then dealer fired the service manager (I think he was too nice). So, car is good, dealer and Hyundai customer service are the worst!

i shopped for an elantra, but the accent limited had a catchy new style and lots of equipment, i also have an elantra se that is well equipped but not all that the accent limited did offer. i think the sport mode is nice on the highway when on manual shift due to stop and go heavy traffic. the electric shift 6 speed is actually in a manual mode so watch to upshift manually. the limited came with high quality low profile tires and large rims makes a nice stance and good handling. if you don't have extra funds to purchase wheel locks,see if you can finance in as a dealer add on. you can feel comfortable inside it is larger than the previous accent models i test drove. if you like gadgets this is the car for you
