2002 Hyundai Elantra GT review from North America
"Not a good value for the money"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
At 21,500 miles and despite driving the car moderately, all brake pads were worn down and had to be replaced. Since the car had actually lost one brake pad before it started to make noise and alert me of the issue, the rear brake discs needed to be replaced since metal had cut into them beyond resurfacing. The dealer told me that it was my driving style and refused to take anything under warranty.
