Recalls
Safety issues the manufacturer must repair for free. A recall means confirm the fix was done, not walk away.
No recalls on record for this model
No safety recalls were found in this dataset. It is still worth entering the exact VIN on NHTSA before purchase, since recalls can be added at any time.
Is 100 complaints a lot? They were filed between 2016 and 2026, roughly 10 a year, which is more than the typical model in this dataset. We do not have sales figures for this model, so treat this as a rough volume, not a rate per car on the road. Popular, high-volume models naturally collect more complaints over time.
How does it compare with other years? The 2016 has 100 complaints on file, more than the 2015 (69) and more than the 2017 (68). Of the 13 model years of the Hyundai Accent we cover, the 2012 has the most (153). Older model years have had longer to collect complaints.
