2002 Hyundai Elantra GT review from North America
"Love it"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I love this car, it is reliable, comfortable and the best kept secret. I have the GT with leather seats, and the seats look like new.
The tie rods just went at 115,000 miles, but other than that and usual brakes, tires, I've done nothing except keep up with the oil changes.
When I first purchased this car, we were so impressed with it, we purchased a second one for another member of my family. A friend of mine liked ours and purchased one for himself; his has over 200,000 miles on it. I then gave my 2002 to my son and purchased a 2006, which I love.
I know I sound like I work for a dealership, but I'm just happy with the car and all it offers at the very reasonable price I paid.
