What Owners Say
"Tape around door frame was coming off. Dealer replaced the tape with no issue. Tape is from factory; is black and avoids painting window frame"
Anonymous, QC (2013 Hyundai Accent None 1.6-L 4 Cyl)"The wheel protection trimming was not tightened and shred the first day of purchase"
Anonymous, TX (2013 Hyundai Accent None 1.6-L 4 Cyl)"Right front bumper panel came loose."
Paul M., NV (2013 Hyundai Accent None 1.6-L 4 Cyl)"Right front side of car fender detached. Just above the tire. Same problem with the 2016 Accent. Must be a design defect."
Marc B., NY (2013 Hyundai Accent None 1.6-L 4 Cyl)"VERY hard to judge because of sloping hood. Car back to dealer had to fix engine splash guards being torn off by parking bumpers several times. It is definitely too low to ground to clear bumpers. Front fender is starting to come off because of this too. Needs re-design of it!! not buy again!"
Michele R., FL (2013 Hyundai Accent None 1.6-L 4 Cyl)"Black film around doors is peeling"

"Right front panel above the tire is continually loose. Also, the car is very low to the ground and the area above the front tires takes quite a beating when going over any type of speed bump or drive no matter how slow you drive"
