2006 Hyundai Elantra GLS from North America - Comments
Nothing so far. These cars have come a long way since the 80's. Comfortable ride, decent fuel economy, lots of features for the money, reliable.

2001 Hyundai Elantra GLS from North America - Comments
My problem is not that the headlight bulbs have been burning out but that the outside of the headlight seems coated with some type of residue. (One other writer referred to his headlight problem as "the glass has fogged so badly that I can barely see... on a dark night".

2003 Hyundai Elantra GL Sedan review from Saudi Arabia
What things have gone wrong with the car? The piston was cracked, so I had to rebuild the engine at 235,000 KM. And every 40,000 KM I have to change the shock absorbers; this could be because of uneven roads, but the Camry I had before had no problem with jumps.

2005 Hyundai Elantra GLS from North America - Comments
Nothings gone wrong so far. Car seems like it has plenty of pep even for a 4 cyl. Is roomy inside and has a lot of appeal. Dash is well designed and is easy to read all gages. However mine had a cassette player in it and dealer changed out for a CD player at no charge.

2008 Hyundai Elantra review from North America
General comments? My father just bought a used 08 Elantra, and I must say I cannot drive this car. I own an 07 Sonata 3.3L V6, which I love. It has good power, it is comfortable, and it has more than enough room...

2005 Hyundai Elantra from North America - Comments
All cars with timing belts and not timing chains, with 16 valves (4 cylinders) twin camshaft, have to change timing belt all the time!! (Honda, Mitsubishi, Toyota, etc). The Civics of 90s are very sensitive on this point. Many broken Honda engines, due to this fact.

2009 Hyundai Elantra GLS review from Chile
What things have gone wrong with the car? Nothing. Everything works OK. Fuel consumption is excellent, providing an impressive 13 km/L in city commuting, but being the 1.6 engine, 123 HP, it could use more power.

2000 Hyundai Elantra review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car? Every window on our car has broken nothing works, all we hear is the motor that raises the windows. The first 2 rear windows went out, and when we tried to raise them up, some of the cable came up with the windows halfway.

Fuel consumption is bad. Not what the dealer claimed. Averaging 8KM per liter. Dealer claimed 11KM per liter. Driving less than 3000RPM and less than 100KM/Hr on normal city driving. After performed 1st 1000KM service, they checked the timing for fuel consumption, but still the same.

The timing belt went and the car stalled. Wouldn't restart and had to have it towed into the shop. Did you know that regular maintenance is replacing the timing belt at 60,000 miles. If you don't you void the 100k warranty.

2001 Hyundai Elantra GLS from North America - Comments
• Replaced plastic side panel on driver's side of dash due to discoloration under warranty. • Replaced strut that was groaning and creaking. I believe this became the subject of a TSB. This too was covered under warranty.

2000 Hyundai Elantra GLS Wagon review from North America
I bought my car in 2005 used, I thought I was getting a great deal... A few weeks later, the car wouldn't start, had it towed four separate occasions for its not starting problems. Eventually it would start for no apparent reasons, no mechanics could tell me what it was...

2008 Hyundai Elantra GLS review from North America
One tire out of round on delivery, replaced under warranty. We purchased (2) Elantras, both are identical 2008 GLS models with the popular equipment group. One is brand new. The other is a former rental with 18,000 miles on it. It looks and runs near new and had a clean car fax.

2004 Hyundai Elantra GT from North America - Comments
My MP3 player didn't seem to be installed properly. The dealer replaced it easily. The engine stalled on very cold mornings. It would just go a few hundred yards and stall. The dealer is currently working on this problem as they've never heard of it before. It's getting to be seriously annoying.

2003 Hyundai Elantra GT from North America - Comments
My mother in her mid 50's purchased a 2003 Elantra 5sp. At around 25,000 k's clutch went and dealers didn't want to listen to talk to her. Went again at around 45,000 and now it has almost gone again at 70,000! Time to sell, very disappointing.

I had my brand-new Elantra for about 26 hours (I drove it 100 miles since I bought it), when it malfunctioned and died in the middle of an intersection. I tried to have it towed, but HRA was a total failure. They could not get a tow truck until the next day.

2003 Hyundai Elantra GT review from North America
I just had my clutch repaired, which cost about 1700.00, and a week later, it has gone out, again. The car only has 51,000 miles on it. I purchased it used and am wondering if previous owner had the same issue and traded it in, since I purchased it with 21,000 miles on it.
