I was t-boned recently while making a left turn. I was struck so hard that I flipped onto my roof. I not only beat death but I climbed out of the window, coming out unscathed. Overall: very sturdy, reliable vehicle. Highly recommend.

Bought this car used in 2015 and haven't had any problems besided the ignition coil which is a common problem with them. Easy do it yourself job takes 10 minutes and costs 30 bucks for all 4 on amazon. I replaced one with an autozone ignition coil for $80 but that was before i found the ones on amazon. The error that came up was a misfire on a cylinder so if that happens id replace this first. Other than that the car is basic but does the job and has good speakers and aux.

Love the Hyundai Accent! Needed a new car after wearing out a very good Subaru but did not want to pay the high price for another Subaru. Looked at Hyundai since they are affordable and reliable. Liked the styling of the Accent hatchback and the fact that it did not come with a bunch of gadgets that will eventually break. Test drove and immediately knew this was the car for me. Though not a Ferarri with acceleration it gets to speed well enough. The car is quiet and rides very well. You get a little suspension noise over large bumps but the ride is very stable. Get the A/C - it is nice and cold. Controls are well laid out and easy to reach. Surprisingly very roomy for a small car.
What a surprise

I have been driving large cars all my life but being retired I needed to save on gas. What a car, this little Accent drives great, has head room for my cowboy hat, accessory holders, great radio/CD player, goes around curves like a BMW, less noise interior than my old caddy, drives by gas stations on trips, we love our light green color, air conditioning cold as ice, leg room for my 6'1" 250 lbs and comfortable in drivers seat, Took my granddaughter to lunch and she had plenty of room in rear seat next to the groceries and half dropped back seat. What a bargain for the price. As you can see we love it.
Great Car for Value Oriented Drivers

My wife needed a new car because her '95 Accord was on its last legs. We knew the day was coming, so we has already been researching vehicles, and the combination of price features, and warranty put the Accent at the top of the list. We ended up purchasing her a Hyundai Certified car with 4500 miles and an automatic. The car is very well built, and handles well for a lightweight economy car. The engine, wgile no speed demon, etc the job done, even at 80 MPH plus highway cruising. Don't let the lack of ABS scare you if you are looking at the Accent, the car stops just fine. Build quality is far better than one expects at this price point. We bought a second one to replace my 1994 BMW 325is.
