Outside of the tire issues and lights, great car.

My only issues are the tires and the electrical problems (mainly the lights). I have had problems with my tires since purchasing my car. Other than that, I really like it.

Very realiable Good Looking car

This car met all my needs. The interior is nicely done. The car has clean lines on the outside. Feels and drives very comfy. The trunk has ample of room and the seats fold down. No spare tire as this car has an emergency repair kit.

Perfect Daily Driver

I've had this car for two years so far and have had no issues with it. It always starts right up and is ready to go. I've taken this car on multiple 300+ mile road trips through rain/snow and just about every element. Throughout the two years the only maintenance has been oil changes. I'd highly recommend this car for people looking for a reliable daily or even a first car for teenagers. There are tons of safety features and it has a 5 star safety rating. For the price you can get these cars they come with keyless entry, bluetooth, and heated seats. It's not the fastest commuter or most fun but if you're looking to avoid headaches and an endless money pit than this is a great choice.

Car Malfunctioning,but Mechanic Can’t Find Problem

I have had my Hyundai Elantra for almost 2 years, but out of nowhere a major problem has occurred. The car will stop accelerating out out nowhere while driving, stop, or start shaking. After I pull over and turn the car off to on, it usually temporarily fixes the problem allowing me to get home, but I do not feel safe at all because I’m scared it’s going to stop. I have taken the car to 3 mechanics and they can’t find the source of the problem. I used to love my car, but now I feel hopeless!

Very easy-shifting, and excellent MPG.

The car handles well, has decent power and MPG, looks very stylish, and is quite roomy in the cabin. I would recommend this car to anyone looking for an affordable, and reliable vehicle.
