2001 Hyundai Elantra GLS review from North America
"Looks good, runs fair, is a pain in the butt"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The vehicle was delivered with defective paint. It was repainted.
Every lamp on the car has burned out in the first six months of ownership. The lamps are dealer only. Lamp replacements are not all covered under warranty.
Marker lights require removal of the wheel well cover to replace. High cost.
General comments?
I cannot wait to get rid of this vehicle to get a car that is easily serviced.
