I had my 15k service last week for my 04 Elantra GT, as well as the VA state
safety inspection. The only issue that came up was the need to replace the
2 license plate bulbs which had both blown. According to the service
manager this is a common issue on the 5-door because of the repeated
shutting of the heavy hatch.

Just curious if anyone else had needed to replace their bulbs, and over what
frequency?

I've done a few, but I don't think it's any more than any other car.

Of course, some people use their trunk/hatch more than others. And some
folks are more.... enthusiastic... about how they shut the trunk/hatch.

Very true. It's hard to close the hatch "softly" because of the weight, but
I'm trying to be more careful.
