2000 Hyundai Accent L review from North America
"Great car for your money"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Previous owner pulled relay from the fan rendering it useless (30 dollar fix).
Temp gage had to be replaced with cluster (140 dollars).
Needs an alignment and new tires as of right now.
Transmission grinds from first to second occasionally.
General comments?
Great car overall; mileage is superb, reliability is great (would not buy an auto though).
Performance is decent for a car with its engine size.
Oil consumption has started at around 130000, but not bad at a quart every 3000 miles.
Would buy another in a heart beat, but would make sure to get options next time though.
