Advice: Beware of 2007 Accent hatchbacks
This car is OK for the price, My 2007 Accent Hatchback has already had it's problems. At 2000, 3200, and 4300 miles check engine light came on. Hyundai dealer couldn't seem to fix it on the first 2 tries. Now I am waiting 2 days for parts to see if third time will fix it. I am disappointed because I thought this car had great ratings. Maybe because this is a new model, maybe next years models will be better?Pros: Versatile cargo space.

The leg room was not an issue. Wanted the 5 speed but, wound up getting the automatic. Buy the 5 speed!!! Much road noise but, that was expected. Rides not too bad. The seat could go back further.
