This generation of Hyundai Elantras are very reliable, a great value on the used car market. My 2005 is still going strong today with only one minor brake light issue one time, otherwise problem-free. In China they used to use these as Police cars due to being reliable.

Not the crappy versa but the first generation the five door hatchback. It was also great car! Anyway, don’t forget the timing belt on this car. I did mine at 70,000 miles. I know yours has super low miles but it’s probably time to do it due to age age. I hope you still have the car and enjoying it.

Thank you for your Video on the 2005 Elantra. I had a white 2005 myself. My Parent's past away in 2018 and I inherited his 2007 Ford Focus. In 2019 when I bought my Hyundai Santa Fe I figured I was better off keeping The Focuse since it only had 37,000 Miles on it m 2005 Elantra had 72,000 on it so I traded it in for my 2017 Santa Fe Sport. WRONG MOVE! I wish I kept my 2005 Elantra and traded Dad's Focus instead! I had nothing but problem's with that car. To make the story short my Dad and Grandfather loved Fords. I myself never had any luck with them. My Grandfather's favorite car when he was young was the 1932 V8 Ford Roadster. Mine is the 2005 Hyundai Elantra! I wish I still had that car. Thank you for post of your's.
