  engine knocking - 2013 Hyundai Elantra
  By buddy75 - April 12 - 9:42 pm

  bought my 2013 elantra in Febuary. I was told I could have my routine oil changes done at any reputible dealer as long as it is documented. I live 30 miles from the dealer and work alot of hours. As it came time for my oil change I took it to valvoline and had my first oil change at 3,800 miles. The very next day my engine was making a knocking niose. i called the dealer and took the car in. I then paid for another iol change and was handed a bulletin dated sept. 2012 that states anything but a huyndai oil filter can cause engine knocking. The oil change did not fix the engine knock. I now have a car with less than 5,000 miles and an engine knock. The dealer is less than helpful.

  Very Disappointed - 2013 Hyundai Elantra
  By lemon25 - April 1 - 8:39 am

  This is the third Hyundai I have owned and, to be honest, the one I like the least. Outwardly it is a beautiful car. I owned it less than two weeks when I had to have a new steering column installed. I have owned the car since last July and find the suspension so loose that hitting a bump in the road causes the car to jump sideways. At freeway speeds the car tends to drift somewhat. Noisy, as well. I dont feel I have as much control with this model. It is very light and I dont feel I have a sturdy vehicle under me. Additionally, the gas mileage is just about the same as my 2008. Sorry I traded my 2008 Elantra for this new, (improved?) model. No more Hyundais for me.

  Fun to drive and very efficient too! - 2013 Hyundai Elantra
  By bleese - February 12 - 5:31 pm

  Weve owned our Elantra for a year now and we love driving it daily. Its sporty and very quick to respond to sudden turns and stops. We dropped from a Honda Accord to this car and at first were worried about the size, but after a few days, we quickly feel in love with it. The savings on gas is amazing, the trunk space is massive and at 62" tall, I have plenty of leg and head room in either the driver or passenger seat. It handles well in all weather conditions and is super quiet. We havent had any issues and never mind taking it in for an oil change with inspection since the warranty is so extensive. I recommend this car to anyone needing a solid, dependable vehicle.

  Second time Elantra owner. - 2013 Hyundai Elantra
  By 2ndtimeowner - February 12 - 4:40 pm

  Just traded our 2010 Elantra.Why ?Why not. new style new color . and the best fact we liked our last Elantra . The dealership and I dont say this much but,they made it work. really. we only had 35,500 miles on last car ,gave us great trade in . and in the end walked into new car as if it was nothing. trade in covered loan ,payment stayed the same .. But most of all we liked the service ,and also the car .. the 2010 was a big question mark for us . our first hyundai. We owned Honda,toyota , many times over the years . But this elantra . These two Elantras are the best bang for the buck. saved alot of money . The 2013 is no question a nicer car.

  Problems with tires and break - 2013 Hyundai Elantra
  By rafiai - February 11 - 8:51 pm

  I have bought this car just over one year ago, we do live in cold climate ( Ontario), I am not sure if this car was built for this climate, as the car has done only 25000 KM, the dealership tells me I need new sets of tires and my break are rusted, I was shocked to hear I have to spend over $1400 for a car that is one year old and Hyundai Canada refused to cover the cost, they said to me the tires are not part of the car and I have to go to the tire manufacturer , and when I did approached them, they refused to pay for the tires, this is a car that is been used for inner city and was kept indoor at all times, and I am 56 years old, so I was not racing with

  I love this car - 2013 Hyundai Elantra
  By elantra6 - January 26 - 12:25 pm

  I have had this car for 3 weeks and I love it. I was trying to choose between Mazda 3, Honda Civic, Ford, Kia, Subaru Impreza, Toyota Corolla , Nisan... and few othes... At the end I had to pich between Honda Cic and Elantra - and I chose the Elantra. So I saved $3,000 , got a better looking car, more leg space, much better warranty , 5 years of road side assistance, 2 years of free oil change. The quality is great it drives great- feels very sporty.
