My elantra

My elantra is the best car on the road. It gives me such joy. The style has class. The Napleton dealership is great and treats me right. Steve is my favorite representative. Although everyone has been great and got the work done on time.

Pleased with my Elantra

So far, my 2012 Elantra has performed as hoped. The gas mileage is excellent. The only issue I've had is that the rear calipers froze (locked up). After some discussion the Dealer covered the repair.

Good value for what we spent

We bought this car new. It's 6 years old. We are well pleased with it and the dealership that we purchased it from. Our steering wheel needed replaced and it is wearing again and also the front driver's seat upholstery didn't hold up. We plan to have it repaired. Our car has less than 70,000 miles on it so thought it would wear better. Our 2004 Ford van has over 100,000 miles on it and the upholstery looks like new.

2018 Elantra Value Edition.

All the features of a luxury car for about $20k. Having owned a 2012 Elantra, I decided to upgrade to the 2018 Value Edition. The newer model is roomier and handles more like mid-sized car similar to the Sonota. Great car, great handling and love all the features.

A Family Experience

A really fun experience that has served our military family across the world. Purchased in San Diego, driven to the east coast, and shipped to Bahrain and back and it continues to serve our evolving military family well.

Navigation

I am a home health nurse. I have a poor sense of direction. My navigation always takes me to my patients home. My navigation system has led me home from unfamiliar destinations...once even through a storm! So grateful!

Great Service, Great Car

I have driven many cars in my lifetime. this Hyundai Elantra is by far my favorite. The design is especially clever and convenient. It is good to look at and amazingly convenient to drive. I continue to love this car.

Best Deal Around

I now have 116400 miles on my 2012 Hyundai Elantra. I have never had any work done on my vehicle except regular maintenance. It is reliable, gets great gas milage and is fun to drive. It is sporty and looks more expensive than the actual price. This car is a great value. Also, you can't beat the 100,000 mile warranty and the excellent customer service from the dealership. Highly recommended.

Great Car!

I love my Hyundai Elantra it takes me everywhere I need to go I love the whole fact that I have SiriusXM when I get to the center a lot of my favorite radio station I love the way that it has Bluetooth technology and I can be hands-free on the road I love the Eco but and especially because I get save gas and get the places that I need to get to on a weekly basis and it only cost 30 bucks to fill up my tank that is so awesome I also would love the way that you know if it's all my friends and comfortably I love the way that my daughter can sit in her booster seat in the back and feel so comfortable with armrest and cup holder there's enough trunk space for me to fit everything I love my Hyundai Elantra it has never failed me

Great Car!

My Hyundai Elantra has been nothing but dependable for the last five years! It has been a real fun car to drive, and I would highly recommend buying one! I will definitely be looking to buy another one, when this ones done! I just don’t see this one being done for quite awhile! Two thumbs up for this Hyundai Elantra!

I have really enjoyed my Hyundai since I've had it, it is easy to handle and stylish at the same time. It I was to get another car, it would have to be a Hyundai. They honor their warranty and the people are friendly and understanding to your needs

Easy to drive.

Although my car is easy to drive, it doesn't do hills very well. The Rocky mountains leaves the car in the right hand lane pulling hills. Everyone is passing me except for the large semi trucks. It's disappointing to say the least.

2012 Elantra

We bought this car in August 2011 when the gas was approaching $5 per gallon to save on gas. It turns out the gas mileage claims by Hyundai were vastly overstated. Also this car STAYS in the shop! There is always something going wrong with it. I'm constantly shelling out money to fix it!. It has become a Money Pit which is why this is my last Hyundai!! I never had trouble like this with our two Nissan Maxima and two Hondas (Civic & CRV)!

Demonstrates Poe's Law

The moment it hit the 50,000 mile mark, my particular model triggered every single extended warranty notification. Performance, handling, use as a car however is superb. But it will break down on ya.

2012 Hyundai Elantra Limited

I bought this car used 5 years ago for its economical gas usage. It’s been overall good to me. It slides when hitting any uneven surface over 60 mph and that’s always bothered me. I’ve also had to purchase 8 tires due to wear and tear from alignment issues. I’m a y’all woman (5’10”) and this car has always been too small for me height wise therefore making my overall experience less than perfect/enjoyable. My mother is 5’5 and it fits her perfectly in head room, and lumbar support etc.

Very Good Car

This is a very good car. Besides brakes and regular oil changes, the only repair it needed was a crankshaft sensor at 120,000 miles. I will defiantly buy another one if this one ever wears out! Thanks.
