1998 Hyundai Accent LS review from Greece
"Expensive for its bad quality, no after sales service, a bad choice"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I had non-acceptable serious problems with engine, although I drive my car "gently" and I go regularly only to Authorized Dealer Service.
Problems like burning lots of oil inside the engine, the car once couldn't start (remain "dead") because it had lost some liquids, etc.
General comments?
It has some quite goof technical specifications, but the construction quality is bad, and that appears at the noises of the plastic parts, the noise from the engine, the problems of the mechanical parts, etc.
