2002 Hyundai Elantra GLS review from North America
"Absolutely amazing"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Headlights have been sporadic on how long they last. One dealership put it in and told me they were "self aiming". Went to a new dealership and have been going there since.
Can't point the vents up or down, just left or right.
Gas mileage is great, on trips I average 40+ miles per gallon.
General comments?
Great car that rarely has problems and you don't have to put a lot of money into. As said earlier, you can't aim the air conditioning vents up or down. Air kicks on and cools down the car very quick.
