1995 Hyundai Accent Interior & seats Problems
Owner-reported complaints naming the interior system, filed with NHTSA
Data refreshed
Interior & seats reportsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

HAVE OWNED THE 9195 ACCENT SINCE 2000. DRIVERS WINDOW HANDLE BROKE WITHIN 2 YEARS, REQUIRING REPLACEMENT OF WINDOW ASSEMBLY. OUTSIDE AND INSIDE DRIVERS DOOR HANDLES BROKE; MAKING GETTING IN AND OUT THE DRIVERS DOOR NOW IMPOSSIBLE UNLESS I PAY $300 TO HAVE THEM BOTH REPLACED AS WITH THE PASSENGER SIDE OUTSIDE (WHICH THERE IS ENOUGH HANDLE LEFT TO AT LEAST GET IN THE CAR). I WILL NOT BE BUYING ANOTHER ACCENT IN FORESEEABLE FUTURE. CHEAP QUALITY ALL AROUND. *AK
