2001 Hyundai Accent GS review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Sensors had to be replaced constantly. My car would start to accelerate at a complete stop to the point in which the brakes were useless. My Rpms would rev up to 6000.
My brakes were replaced 3 times in 2 years. I went to the dealership for my squealing brakes and they told me there was dust on my brakes and within 3 weeks my rotors were burnt into.
I was 5000 miles over on my oil change and I blew a rod through my motor which wasn't replace by warranty.
My car was in the shop 18 times within 3 years before it finally died.
