The short version
- The 2012 Hyundai Accent wheel bearing rear is 512483 for the entire 2012 to 2017 run.
- The front is not documented in the catalogs we hold for any year in this span.
- Front replacement work relies on the old part or the VIN, not a listed number.
- The rear number, 512483, also shows up on a Kia small car built the same years. That does not change what fits here.
The 2012 Hyundai Accent wheel bearing story is short on one end. This page covers all six model years of this Accent body. The rear has a documented number, the front does not.

This page covers the 2012 to 2017 Hyundai Accent: 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017. Other years live on the main Hyundai Accent wheel bearing page.
Only the rear is documented on this body. The front is a gap for all six years. Match the old part or run the VIN instead of guessing.
The rear number, 512483, also serves a Kia small car built the same years. Order from this Accent’s own row regardless of that overlap. A shared number is not the same as an interchangeable one.
Year by year
2012 through 2017 share one story behind the 2012 Hyundai Accent wheel bearing question at each end. The rear stays at 512483 every year. The front never gets a documented number in this span.
Where this Accent sits in the lineup
This body follows the 2006 to 2011 Accent and, before that, the 2000 to 2005 Accent. Neither of those earlier rear numbers applies here. Each of the three bodies gets its own page, since the numbers do not carry across the seams.
Diagnosing a Hyundai Accent wheel bearing
- Listen for the sound. A worn wheel bearing produces a rumble that grows louder with speed. Compare it against this guide to turning noise.
- Rule out tires first. Uneven wear can sound similar to a bad bearing. This comparison covers the difference.
- Check for play at the wheel. With the wheel off the ground, rock it at 12 and 6 o’clock. Looseness there points at the hub.
- Watch the ABS light. A failing bearing can trip the ABS light before it ever gets loud.
- Confirm the front by other means. Since no number is documented, match the old part in hand or run the VIN before ordering.
