2001 Hyundai Elantra review from North America
"A lemon straight off the production line"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
1) Smelled coolant within the first week, car had a warped head.
2) Broken door handle within the first month.
General comments?
Car was in shop to have head replaced before I had 1000 miles on it. Was in for repair for 30 days because they couldn't get parts for it & pushed out before it was properly finished to avoid lemon law by 2 days!! I will NEVER buy another Hyundai product... they are coming off the assembly line defective & the manufacturer is getting away with it.
