Junk! just over the 60,000 mile warranty and just about everything you can imagine went wrong. The gas gauge does not work. The exhaust broke apart on the flex pipe. It's all one piece and costs $850 just for parts. One out of two O2 sensors are bad at $200 a pop! front wheel bearings went; one seized up and one was wobbling loose at $200 each. Front and rear brakes both went at once, rotors and all. Alternator also went bad which lead to new battery. Gas mileage went down to 28 mpg. Everything has been maintained on a regular basis and I'm still losing gas mileage. Over all I think I have paid for this car at least twice!.
I have a Hyundai Accent 2000 3 door hatchback in may had to have the entire fuel system flushed out $500 called Hyundai before I repaired said that item was not part of a current campaign for my VIN number however similar problems have been reported by numerous parties. August 1, 2005 three days after roadside assistance ended car died defective O2 sensor melted the shroud, exhaust manifold and catalytic converter, also engine coil repairs so far 1500 (Hyundai says parts aren't under warranty any more) now the computer is bad on the phone with Hyundai tech support for three hours testing, they gave up never called back, Hyundai said not their problem. Currently I have no vehicle and it will cost 250 to tow to Hyundai dealer about 60 miles away Hyundai will not pay for the towing even though car has safety defects/recalls that need to be fixed. So I guess I am better off without my Hyundai then driving around my two children in a death trap.
The fuel pump tube popped off for the second time, the fuel gauge went from 3/4 full to empty, after 40 hours of having the vehicle fumigated, there was still a smell of gas in the vehicle. Ts.
