Enjoyed the car until the last two years

I enjoyed my Elantra for ten of the past twelve years. Then the maintenance costs started increasing compared to its monetary value. I took my car for the majority of its service needs back to the dealership where I bought the car. The paint started peeling off the rear trunk. I'm not sure if it is related to the Florida heat and the fact that my car sits outside for the hottest part of the day while I'm at work or if it is a flaw in the painting job done by Hyundai. About a month ago water started seeping into the front headlights of the car. It seems that the rubber seal around the headlights dried up. The dealership gave me an estimate of $500+ (including labor) to replace the headlights and said that they didn't have any type of a sealant to apply around the headlights to prevent any more leakage. On the positive side, I have enjoyed how comfortable the seats are (two different levers to adjust the height and lumbar support), how spacious the inside is (front and back seat areas) and that the car has good acceleration when necessary. The trunk is quite spacious and the back seats fold down if you need more trunk space.

2006 Elantra

I purchased my Elantra new over 12 years ago. It is the most reliable vehicle I have ever owned and has provided excellent service at minimum cost. Other than recently replacing an oxygen sensor and the front brake pads (first time), it has required only scheduled maintenance.

Excellent value and trouble-free car

This is my 3 rd Hyundai and 2nd Elantra from Bowsers. No problems except for a minor transmission issue and Hyundai approved a new transmission under warranty and even a rental car! You can’t beat that! Quality is spot on for a compact class car!

Runs very well, but has body issues

I have no/very few issues with the run of the car, but the interior has lots of small, cosmetic or minorly function-impairing issues. Two door handles have broken off on the inside, the trunk latch doesn't work well, etc. Overall, everything is almost universally good under the hood. However, anything that CAN be made with cheap plastic is made of cheap plastic, and shows it.

Problems

Since 2006 I have had multiple strange problems...first, the wrong gas tank on my car, which had to be replaced, original tires wore completely out around 5,000 miles, dead battery at low mileage, which they reimbursed me for, dash split in half, windshield wipers rusted out quickly, drivers inside door handle broke, don't get the gas mileage was told to expect.

20067 Hyundai Elantra

If you arte looking for a good vehicle for a value price, this Hyundai Elantra is the car to buy. My vehicle is over 10 years and it required very little maintenance. It still drives good and looks like new. For the price of this vehicle and the reliability I would highly recommend this car to everyone young, old in-between - a great car!
