Not impressed

Hyundai has a common issue on vehicles once they hit 60k miles which causes the vehicle to accelerate without the driver pushing the pedal. So far only know of a temp fix which is to reset the ECU.

Poor visibility, transmission issues, expensive tires.

I bought this car because it had great MPG and safety ratings, and did not break the bank. Shortly after purchasing, I learned that the MPG rating was misrepresented, I realized the visibility was seriously terrible, and worse the engine started having issues that have yet to be fixed because it is on and off. The engine started slipping randomly and my acceleration declined. I’ve had issues with the electricity when my doors wouldn’t lock and my back window kept rolling down on its own and wouldn’t roll back up.

Better ask about the warranty

I was lied to and the warranty doesn't cover important parts. Very unhappy. I was promised a loaner car and they never called for me to pick it up. The service manager is rude and the service writer Bob tells you exactly what he wants you to hear.

Not a quality vehicle

Don’t buy a Hyundai, they are throw away cars. Do your research.

Gas and oil consumption is inefficient and costly

The 2012 Hyundai Accent was a poor purchase. The gas mileage is very, very poor; Hyundai falsified the mpg. Additionally, my vehicle is now burning oil at a very fast rate....only get 1,000 miles driving for 2 months after an oil change. Both are huge issues in unforseen cost. Plus the trade-in value is worthless.

Not great car

I bought this car new and it has mysteriously leaked oil forever and never been found. It doesn’t even close to come to the mpg noted and despite being paid for the difference of 1 mpg I find that dissatisfied because it never got 39 either. In reality this car is more like 36 and is less fuel efficient than some larger cars. The maintenance costs are low and I haven’t had trouble with it. The streaming wheel is wearing out which is inexcusable for a 2012. The leather started wearing thru in around 2015 and now it looks pretty bad. The switches that work the windows wear out kinda often but cheap to fix if you can do it yourself. Overall it’s been an ok car and cheap to maintain. If they still sold this car I’d likely buy it again for less. The new ones are all bells and whistles and crap I don’t want. This car was fully loaded for its model year but it has no thrills and that I appreciate.

burns gas and oil (more than normal)

My vehicle does not good gas mileage and it burns oil between oil changes. The car was not worth the purchase price. The car gas mileage is very poor and the car’s oil light comes on between oil changes. I bought the car brand new and this is not normal.

Not pleased

I will most likely not be buying another Hyundai. After 60 thousand miles, almost EXACTLY when my warrantee expired my engine timing got off and had to be updated which cost me 200 dollars AND my crank shaft position sensor failed and had to be replaced at 500 dollars. There is also a short in my computer board that will cost me 2000 to replace, something im not willing or able to do. Overall, I'm not pleased with the car and will not be investing in another Hyundai car.

Not a bad car

The car is great when I am not having to have the engine serviced. The car only has 42,000 miles and it has been in for engine service twice this year. Back in February and March for a engine misfire. Problem was not solved the first time it was brought in and had to be put back in shop the following week. Now this past September and October it was in for long engine start up and the smell of gas. Again the problem was thought fixed yet next day after I picked up the car, problem was still there. In the end, this time the fuel injectors were all replaced.

My four year old Hyundia Accent

Its a love-hate relationship in the fact that it is too small, not anyones fault but ours, or mine....I was not there at time of purchase...Everything mechanical is great...We especially like down shifting (don't know correct term)my grandson calls it "Bump shift" I love it...I don t think I will ever buy another car without it. On the downside its too low to the ground and hard to get in and out...I would love a high roomier small SUV I cant see out over the dash or side doors...I am trying to convince my husband to trade to a Tucson.

Review of Accent

The car is a great car overall-especially for what it is ---However, if you intend to haul anything or if you acquire a new grandbaby --you might want to reconsider to a little bit larger car. It drives and handles well

Its an econobox.

Its an econobox. It does not have a lot of power and does not get great gas mileage in the city, but it is well appointed for an inexpensive car and is kinda fun to drive.
