Accent

Great Car. Used mainly for work. Good gas mileage and great service. Have 100,400 miles and car still runs and looks like new.Would buy another if in the market for another car. Will always recommend this car.

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.

Great Basic Car

My car is a 2012 Accent GLS sedan with manual transmission. I bought it used in 2014. I got this as a commuter car and a backup to my Subaru Outback. I average 32 to 34 mpg on my commutes and have seen up to 42 mpg on the highway (and that is in a fully loaded car with the AC on). This is a great car to learn to drive manual. The low end torque is high enough that you can practically pop the clutch without adding power to get the car moving at a slow walk in first gear. This is also a great feature in stop and go traffic. My only beefs with this car are acceleration under heavy load and the OEM tires. With the car loaded for a weekend trip with a family of 4 (yes, the trunk is big enough for all the stuff) and the AC on, the car will not accelerate in gears 4 to 6. The OEM Kumho tires were utterly useless in snow. I put some General Altimax RT43 tires on it and the car is quite good in snow now. All-in-all it fits my needs as a second car very well and I'm very happy with this purchase.

Nice car for the money.

Love my car. I intend to drive it till it just can’t go any more!!! I don’t understand why it is no longer manufactured. I also don’t understand why I have to write a minimum of 200 words to be done with this voluntary survey.

I have a 2012 black Hyundai Accent

I enjoy my accent. I brought my accent brand new in April 2012 and glad to say that I have 2 more payments. My accent is the best choice car that I could have ever made. I love ❤️ my black Accent. It’s great on gas and easy for parking in small spaces.

Great little car

Have had the car for 6+ years. The breaks are still the original! Drives great with the 130 hp engine, and gets good gas mileage. The interior is black and has weathered well. At 3 yrs the battery needed to be replaced. At around 4 yrs, one of the hydrolics on the hatchback lift gate went out. Hyundai replaced it for free, as it was under warranty. At 5 yrs I got a large nail in one of the tires and ended up replacing all the tires (as they were pretty worn out). At just over 6 yrs the battery went out and needed to be replaced again. A week later I also needed to replace the knock sensor (affordable cost). Overall I would say it's been fun to drive (great pick up when I try to quickly pass someone on the freeway), great value for the money, comfortable and reliable. I would get another Accent if they still made it in a sporty hatchback.

Happy owner.

Great get up and go when entering an Interstate. Fantastic mileage per gallon is superb!! Also, when I have to replace tires, I only need 14 inch tires which means the cost per tire is a lot less then a larger tire.

Comfort with Economy

On top of comfort and economy, the Accent is fun to drive and I like its looks. This 2012 is my college student granddaughter's and makes us a three Hyundai family. Its wider tires provide a slightly better ride and handling than my 2016 economy sedan.

Love my car

Hyundai was recommended to me by several friends at work. My Accent is a reliable little car. I’ve had it for two years now and have had no complaints. It’s easy to drive and I particularly love the large windows for visibility. I feel safe driving it.

Love my car

My 2012 Hyundai Accent runs great, no problems and what I love the most is putting 24.00 to fill her up. Great on mileage and has a lot of space when I put my seats down. Anytime I've gone for maintenance was just oil change. Stereo systems is great. What I love best is how I can raise or lower my front seat.

Great Car

Love the car- only upset is how cheap and fragile the bumpers are. Extremely reliable. Love the compact style. I've had the car for 7 years and kept it after leasing it and plan on keeping it until it dies completely.

Practical

My Hyundai Accent is a zippy little car. It is easy to park and gets great gas mileage. I get nearly forty miles per gallon on the highway and between twenty-five and thirty miles per gallon in city traffic.

Owning a 2012 Accent

This car hasn't even had a hiccup in 120K miles. Fuel mileage continues to make me smile and driving the six speed manual makes it fun. Winter driving isn't a problem if you put on a set of ice/snow tires. I have a house in Northeastern PA that I visit at least 3 weekends a month during the long snow season up there and have never been stuck!

Right side for the right ride

Having owned by Hyundai Accent for several years now, I can attest with certainty that the brand and car are a leader in the auto world. Smooth ride, great gas mileage, kicking sound system and lots of room in a small body. Big bang for your buck!

Review of the 2012 Accent

Vehicle is reliable and gets fantastic gas MPG. I added a back up camera and a doughnut spare tire. I did not feel the compressor would be useful if it had a large hole. Have driven this car since 2015 when I bought it and am very happy with it

Cannot be beat!

One Excel, and on my THIRD!!! Accent. Need I say more??? But I will... Comment the warranty = five years peace of mind. The darn vehicles don't rust! Living in the north that is awesome! Hyundai service centers are consistent, thorough, and do it right the first time around!

It's too rough a ride. The visability around is not very good, I'm never sure where I am when I park, how far away from the other guy I am. I love the color (light blue).

As above. Very rough ride. Can't see well where the car is in relation to other cars. This survey is a pain! I already said what I want to say. It keeps bouncing back to me to write more (200 characters). I'm never going to do one again.

Accent

I love my 2012 ACCENT. It is my third new car purchase of Hyundai Accents. I do wish they still supplied those little spare tires though. Also , liked the back support that was on driver's side of car, which really helps arthritic pain . But overall, I am very pleased with my car.

Reliable and efficient. Surprisingly nimble and quick.

I purchased my Accent brand new. Was very affordable and has excellent gas mileage. The Hyundai Accent has a lot of room for passengers and cargo for a small car. It is an excellent car and I would recommend it.

Love my Hyundai

I have owned my Hyundai Accent for 3 years and still enjoy driving this car every day. Winter time, this car has been the best car I have owned driving in bad conditions. There have been no major repairs needed. I bring my car in for normal services that are due and the staff is always friendly and courteous. I like the detailed account of what services I need to consider to be done now and those services I need to consider in the future.
