2002 Hyundai Elantra 4 door review from North America
"Super reliable and did I say reliable, yes it is"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Brakes, (rotors, pads, shoes,1 brake cylinder),battery, light bulbs. Had a problem for a while with the check engine light. Took a few trys, but it finally went away. (false warnings)
General comments?
Car has very smooth ride. Engine runs smooth and has lots of power, especially on highway. Transmission is smooth most of time. Jerk here or there. Not bad considering the odometer reading. Very reliable car,it's a work vehicle for my job.It racks up a lot of mileage and some abuse. It still runs strong. Only negative is paint scratches easier than other cars I have owned.
