Elantra

  • 78,300 miles
Very dangerous: The vehicles shutsdown while driving without any warning. Dashboard blinks and engine shuts down causing lost of steering and power, slowing car in heavy traffic with vehicles behind. This has happened several times. Mechanics can't solve issues. On the internet, similar incidents have been reported by other Hyundai drivers. The crankshaft position sensor, idle control valves, and in/out output sensor transmission are reported as possible problems. In any event is a very dangerous condition. Problem should be studied and reported. It happens not only to this model, but on other Hyundai vehicles.
