2000 Hyundai Accent review from North America
"An excellent buy"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Check engine light faulty.
Front wheel bearing failed at 90k.
The manual tyranny grinds a bit.
General comments?
OK, it's not a perfect car, but it's reliable, comfortable and well engineered.
It is easy to work on.
Great winter starter. With snows, handles fine in winter.
Body is holding up well.
In general I am very happy with it.
