  Great Little Car - 2000 Hyundai Accent
  By Nadine - September 9 - 9:15 am

  I purchased this car five years ago when it was five years old and I havent had any major problems, just minor repairs. The car is great on gas and the repairs I have done have been cheap. My only complaint is that the car is gutless and has a hard time making it up hills. This was my first car and I would purchase this car again!

  Owned one for 9 years without problems - 2000 Hyundai Accent
  By vaskar - May 15 - 11:10 am

  I bought new.This is my third car.I am inlove with it till now. If you make the services on the time,it will never leave you on the road. Until now,the counter says: 172000 klm and it goes on. I havent until now any serious problems. I have change a set of clutch disc at 110000 klm and four shock absorbers at 100000 klm. But in my opinion, this is normal for a car that keep mooving. I take care my car, so it takes care of me. I know that I have an ordinary car but now Im sure that this is a really good car. Its a great value for money.

  Why I hate my Hyundai - 2000 Hyundai Accent
  By Jacqui - February 14 - 5:47 pm

  Sunroof leaks, heater broke,replaced rear wiper motor twice in 1 year ($400each), the brakes completely and calipers? twice in 2 years. I have also replaced the exhaust, the clutch which when it broke damaged the transmission so badly i had to replace both. Also goes through oil like crazy. Spend about $3500 per year on repairs. Doors swing back and slam on your legs as well. Oh loses power trying to go up even small hills. Also bought for $10000 was worth $2500 within 2 years. I hate this car. it is currently in for repairs again. Horrible car. would be great if it ran. Ever. Not worth it even for free, use the money you save on repairs to go on a vacation

  Owned one for 5 years-Good car - 2000 Hyundai Accent
  By Stormy21856 - December 30 - 11:19 am

  I bought this car used with 18,000 miles in Jan 2002. Car now has 67,325 mi. Very reliable after the first couple times in the shop the first year I owned it. Needed Mass air flow sensor to stop pinging & some automatic transmision shifter sensor found in TSB to smooth out shifting. Great city car, great gas milage. Car has functioned extremly well no problems. Brakes and tires around 42,000 mi. Very basic low cost transportation. I have been very pleased.

  I have one! - 2000 Hyundai Accent
  By melody - February 11 - 7:08 pm

  I own one of these cars. although i tinted the windows and put a few small in-expensive little gagets, like seat covers, window stickers, and just kinda tricked it out a little bite, i love driving my car, its great on gas, so i dont have to stop at every station i see. YOOHOO!handles great on wet and snowy roads, thats the front wheel drive doing its thing! although, it gets great gas mileage on the HWY 400+ miles,to A TANK, i can handle the 250-270 miles A TANK In town driving. i love this car. its agreat car for a single person,, or if you dont want to haul all your friends around for free. three friends and yourself, thats plenty in one car, great car overall. I love my car

  Not a pocket rocket, Not a fuel hog. - 2000 Hyundai Accent
  By Chris - September 7 - 6:00 pm

  With todays struggle over fuel costs, consumption, and supplies. It is a great value to have ownership of one of these little cars. The Accent has good lines and really good airflow which allow it to move down the road with very little wind resistance, making it feel as though youre barely moving while you fly down the road. It has the capability to corner on a dime, although it would not be recommended that you do so at speeds higher than 25mph as the narrow wheel base makes the experience feel a bit unstable. The fuel economy of this vehicle makes a drive from Illinois to Virginia still seems reasonable even with our current fuel crisis. The ride is a smooth one. I would recommend this car.

  Sudden DEATH AT 80,000 miles - 2000 Hyundai Accent
  By Little Mamma - August 15 - 6:13 pm

  I bought my Hyundai used in January 2005. It had 74,000 miles. I couldnt have been happier with it until one day the timing belt broke, which broke our engine. $2,000 to repair it and it only had 80,000. Ive only had it for 7 months and Im questioning if it is worth fixing!

  Economical - 2000 Hyundai Accent
  By I bought it used - January 1 - 12:56 pm

  I bought this car because I needed a cheap, reliable, high fuel economy car. In the 21 months I had this car, I took it to the dealership two times for check engine light, once for flex hose on exhaust, strut leak and brake line leak and replaced the front brake pads twice. Needless to say, it fails in the reliability catagory. Considering the price, I should have suspected as much.

  Good Overall Grocery Getter - 2000 Hyundai Accent
  By Mike - December 23 - 1:25 am

  I bought this car new after a recommendation from a friend. Overall good quality. It was in the shop once for a mass air flow sensor. Very good gas mileage, and not too uncomfortable. Im 62 and can ride comfortably. Brakes are fantastic, 38,000 on the first front pads, and 53,000 and going on the rear shoes.
