While driving my right front axle completely came off the frame. After taking it to a Hyundai mechanic I was told that my frame was corroded and that caused my axle to dislocate. I asked if the repair was covered under the TT1 campaign and was told that it was only for preventative measures and did not cover repairs.

For a few months I had a rattling noise coming from the rear of the car when my car was idling on a city street facing downhill (at a stop sign). Then it got suddenly worse for 2 days, so that it rattled all the time when idling in drive or park (stopped at lights or signs or in a parking space). Then it completely stopped rattling - and the next day another driver on the highway, on the 4th of July, notified me that my brake lights were not working. I don't know if it is a coincidence or not.

Passenger side sun visor became disconnected and its weight pulled its wire out 2 inches so that it would not go back in and would not stay up anymore. Now it is completely off and too expensive to fix. Many people have reported this problem and it should be a recall. We may have to have it fixed without having the electrical hooked up to run the mirror light, which is really annoying.

Cold car catches on fire total lost. Was parked on my driveway

While city driving the driver side sun visor swivel bracket broke and will not stay in place. Worse when the visor connector broke it was sudden and blocked visibility. Now the visor will not stay in place and keeps falling into the drivers field of vision without warning. About a month later the same problem occurred on the passenger side visor. After looking at the visor housing the only true fix is to replace the entire visor. After taking it to the local dealership they agree the only fix is to replace both visors which will cost $170 each. This should be a recall as no user error caused the broken visors and unexpectedly blocks driver visibility.

Visor arm broke and visor cannot be returned to folded position, affecting visibility.

Sun visors have a defective part which brakes at the mount and then falls down into vision area and creates a hazard. The problem is where the sun visor is the rod that mounts into the bracket is molded in plastic that is flanges so it will stay in the bracket. The flange breaks allowing the sun visor to fall and will not hold into position. This happened to me while driving on the freeway at freeway speeds unexpectedly and causes not only a distraction but a dangerous situation that actually can temporarily block the path of view.

Broken driver side visor creating a driving hazard when it kept keeps falling down obstructing the drivers line of sight. Very flimsy plastic and you are unable to easily repair it... I have since removed the visor entirely and it is still a hazard when driving into the sun. Cost to replace is $200+ which is insane for something that should much stronger. Same issue with the 2007 sonata and I suspect the same part/durability applies to the 2007 Elantra since I've heard many of the same issues. Please issue a recall for the visors for the 2007 Hyundai Elantra!

The sunvisor on the driver's side broke off, and then 1 week later the visor on the passenger side broke off as well. The passenger's visor barely gets used and yet it broke at almost the same time as the drivers side. After doing research, it was discovered that the part was defective and was redesigned by Hyundai but it has not been officially recalled despite posing a safety/visibility issue.

At my 30,000 mile maintenance work ($600.+), I was called back to shop to show me "very dangerous" corrosion around rear axle/frame parts. I bought this car new from same dealer and was sold a $800. Warranty rust-proofing application. It was clear that where no coating was applied, rust was there and I was told it would be risky driving the car. The low millage and no history of the car being driven in salt water conditions, I was amazed at its condition.(I grew-up in the North rust-belt) I retired close to the South ocean area but never had a car with such advanced rust. (several cars) the dealer refused to honor the warranty and Hyundai's warranty does not cover it. I think poor quality of metal was used in the manufacturing of this vehicle. It's obvious the dealer is also at fault and refuses to honor his warranty. I guess that is a legal problem that I'm stuck with. The possible safety problem comes under your concern for sub-standard manufacturing.

The contact owns a 2007 Hyundai Elantra. While driving 60 mph or greater, the rear of the vehicle swayed from left to right. The failure was prevalent when there was extra weight in the vehicle. The dealer stated that the extra weight changed the rear alignment and caused the vehicle to sway. The dealer attempted to align the rear of the vehicle on four different occasions, but was unable to correct the failure. The current mileage is 8,252 and failure mileage was 2,783. The consumer stated the defect is due to unequal camber and toe settings is what the consumer was informed by the Hyundai dealership. Specialty parts company engineers suggested replacing upper control arms that the defect was due to poor suspension. The consumer provided numerous repair invoices and pictures for the vehicle.
