I’m not quite sure…I’m a mobile mechanic and maintain several that are 200k plus. They’re pretty reliable.

[MountainMan.]

I don't know what this guy is talking about. I've owned a 2013 Elantra for over seven years now, virtually trouble free.

There is no way a power steering problem costs $12, 000 to repair.

I bought two brand new 2013 Elantra's and coming on 7 years later, I don't have any big issues. Other than replacing the rear shock absorbers, I've had no issues. They were overloaded and I drove 2, 000 miles till I reached my destination across the U.S. Not a single issue to be found, maybe I lucked out or maybe I take care of my cars. I've taken my cars throughout SoCal's mountains and other places like LA to WA. They just need gas and I'm good. Surprised to see my car and year ranked so poorly.

12K for steering repair??? What are you adding ? The cost of another vehicle lol

[calebharper]

I'm up to 224k on my 2009 Elantra. Great car!

The 17' + Elantras are super reliable. Again, showing a new car and talking about an old car.

[byronjolly]

I've had an 04 an 18 and a 2020 and none of them ask for anything but oil and gas. Hands down the most reliable car I've ever known. I've owned over 50 cars. The Elantra is the only car I'd ever recommend to someone as a reliable car.

That’s odd, drove a 2013 Elantra for a few years. Light, zippy enough, and handled some wild driving. A truck almost ran me off the road around 40-45mph. The wheels on the right side ended up in the dirt and brush and it was still riding on rails. Solid MPG and no engine or brake noise. Maybe I just had a “good one” but I suppose I’ll find out when I scoop up another in manual this time.

I owned a 2016 Elantra sedan 1.8L and the highway mileage was often in mid 40s. I never had a complaint about the gas mileage.

[mafiawelds]

I have a 19 Elantra that I drive from Texas to LA. Love it. Spend about $100-150 in gas roundtrip⛽️

I have the 2013 Elantra and it drives like a champ. It is true that the EPA numbers are not being met but I've had mine for 3 years without any mechanical issues. Not to mention it has a 6 speed automatic transmission that you won't be able to find nowadays since everything in this segment is CVT. Limited Trim with heated front and rear seats, 8 way power adjustable seat, 8 inch HUD unit, comfortable leather seats (not real leather but close) and manual mode that does a great job of shifting up and down when you need it. Just because you read things online or have this guy use 1 source as a way to downplay how this car is, it doesn't mean you have a bad deal. My cars powertrain is still covered for the next two years.

Mine is serving great..no issues so far.it's 2017 1.6 crdi

[JDMHaze]

I'm no master mechanic but $12, 000 for power steering fixed? I don't think it's more than 1500-$2000 even at a dealership... I feel like you should've done more Research into that, , considering how absurd it sounds as a journalist further investigation was due

Had a 2010 Elantra that had 220k on it when I sold it..Car had a cold engine tick from the day I bought it but out side of that never had a issue with it.

[crabbyjohn]

I have a 2017 and have never had an issue with anything I just do maintenance. The gas mileage is incredible on the open road over 40 mpg and respectable in the city 25 - 30.

[JoesGoldenGarage]

I bought a new Elantra in 2005. Drove it to 98k miles before trading it in on a 2010 versa. Bulletproof. Two sets of tires. One set of brakes. And a $800 timing belt service. These information is just a few yr models. Overall best car for money.

If you have an Elantra, make sure you check for open recalls before it hits 100K. My steering column started rattling at about 110, 000 miles, and I don't ever remember seeing the recall. Now I will have to pay hundreds just to replace a little rubber coupler. They did replace 4 coils for free, but I had to go in 3-4 separate times, when they all coulda been done at once. Be sure Hyundai has your correct mailing and email address. Even if you aren't the original owner, the warrantees carry over to you automatically.

I have a 17’ with 91k miles( work trips). Just got it back from a deer incident. It runs still runs like a dream!

Bought a used 2011 Elantra Limited. Love it, no problems so far. 106, 000 miles
