2002 Hyundai Accent L review from North America

"Wonderful, roomy, economical car that I love!!"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

I have never had a problem with this car, the 2002 Hyundai Accent L.

The only thing I don't like is that the seat belt cuts into my collar bone because it's a two door, nothing that a cushion couldn't fix.

Before this car I had a 2002 Hyundai Accent GL and it was an automatic.

I had major problems with the transmission and strut and strut mounts.

General comments?

I have never had a problem with this car, the 2002 Hyundai Accent L, it's a manual with wonderful shifting, no loud noises, and maneuver's very well. The only thing I don't like is that the seat belt cuts into my collar bone because it's a two door, nothing that a cushion couldn't fix.

Before this car I had a 2002 Hyundai Accent GL and it was an automatic. I bought it with 43,000, and within one year I was having problems with the transmission, and the struts. When it comes to the transmission, I took it to anyone and everyone, but they could not diagnose the correct problem. We changed the trans fluid a few times, and even a new trans didn't help. I do not recommend the automatic Hyundai's, only the manual. I got rid of that car within 2 years and got another Hyundai that I love, and it's very reliable and cheap, which is what a need being a college student.

The car is wonderful with gas getting me 27 mpg city and 30 mpg highway. I have had the car for a year now and I have not needed any brakes; only thing I have gotten is the oil change to maintain the car.
