Back doors will not open. Called dealership and said there is no warranty to cover having them fixed and it will be over $1000 to have the problem corrected. Driving down the road the car shut off and started smoking. It says the car is on and running but it is not

The passenger side door will not open from the outside if the door has been locked. If the door remains unlocked the door will open from the exterior fine, but after being locked the door will only open from the inside of the car. Others have posted online regarding the same issue.

Driver side front door handle does not open car door from outside. Was working fine all day then stopped working. Car was stationary. Front passenger door handle came off in my hand. This occurred months prior to front driver door.

Rear, passenger door will not open from the inside or the outside. You can hear the lock mechanism working, but the door will not open no matter what we do. This seems to be a common problem people have been having with Hyundai for years now. Here's a link to a forum that talks about it. Https://www.Hyundai-forums.com/threads/rear-passenger-door-wont-open.603329/ the Hyundai dealership where I purchased the vehicle says it's out of warranty, and won't look at it without charging me, so I didn't get a repair estimate.

- Lancaster, CA, USA

The doors will not open. The back passenger door will not open from the inside or the out. My driver side has started to do the same thing. Thankfully it's still opening but it still goes in and out.

Front and rear drivers side door handles inoperable. Unable to open from interior or exterior of the vehicle. Doors will lock and unlock, but not open.

- Roseville, CA, USA

The door handles on my 2017 Hyundai Elantra continue to fall off. So far, all 4 of my door handles have fallen off at least once, my drivers side front door has now broken 3 times, passenger front door handle broken twice, and rear passenger door broken twice. Currently 3 out of 4 of my door handles are broken. Been waiting nearly 6 months for the dealership to fix this as a "courtesy" because my car with 85K miles is out of warranty.

Driver and passenger doors do not unlock. Outside the vehicle, place the key in the door lock in the handle and turn, or use the wireless remote. Both methods flip the door lock inside the car to the open position, but neither unlocks the door.

The doors suddenly stop working... they won't unlatch if you try to open from outside or inside.. you have to hit under the door handle for the door to unlatch. This is happening on multiple vehicles and it's a known issue at this point. (more customer complaints here: Https://www.Hyundai-forums.com/threads/rear-passenger-door-wont-open.603329/) this is happening on 2 of my doors. Car has never been in accidents nor does it have any dents on it. Hyundai says they will not fix under warranty (car has 65K miles on it) and they are charging customers to fix it despite it being a manufacturer issue. This is also a safety issue given that in case of an accident or a fire, the door may not open to get passengers to safety. This is not an issue where it slowly degrades. It's a sudden issue.

The paint on the car peels off in sheets. Completely below the primer layer exposing the metal. I have noticed several other Elantra's that seem to have the same issue

When I purchased my car it was brand new it is white and within 1 to 1.5 years the paint job began peeling off from the front. I use the car for work and I drive a lot. I took in the car and I was told it was out of warranty because it was over 4,000 miles. The problem has gotten so bad that by simply washing the car the paint job peels off. From the time I took it in until now I have seen other Hyundai cars (about 5-7) with the same problem; all white. About 1 yr ago I began having problems opening the front driver door. The car was unlocked but I couldn't open it from the outside. I would have to go through the passenger door and open the driver door from the inside. If I don't lock the car I don't have any issues. If I lock it I have to pull on the handle about 3 - 4 times. This is a big inconvenience and a safety hazard. About two weeks ago I began having issues with the back passenger door. I have a two year old and her car seat was placed on the back seat behind the passenger. The back passenger door was on child lock. Two weeks ago that door also stopped opening and I can't open it from the inside due to the child lock. I have moved my daughter's car seat and it is now positioned directly behind the driver seat. This is a big safety issue because I can't see her at all when I am driving. Also, I can't put that door on child lock because when that door starts giving me the same problem (not opening) I will not be able to open it from the inside if it is on child lock. So now I have to worry about my two year old reaching for the handle and opening the door. I have done online searches and have come across other Hyundai vehicles having the same issues or the door handles completely coming off. Hyundai needs to take accountability for the door handles and poor paint job.

Passenger side rear door will not open from inside or outside, child safety lock not engaged, will not unlock. Dealer stated that has happened on several Hyundai's but there is currently no recall. Dealer stated actuator is bad and the cables are stretched. Very unsafe that Hyundai doors are self locking from normal use without damage and without warning.

- Harrisburg, IL, USA

Drivers side door just stopped opening, have to go through passenger side door to open drivers side door, and back passenger door hasn't opened in months from the inside or outside, it just one day didnt open. Google Hyundai Elantra door latch and you will see many more people very angry with the same problem. It is very much a safety issue. My car was at a convience store when the door didnt open after I went into the store. I am going to the dealership on 7-25-20 to get them to look at it but I think they are going to try and charge me even though many other people are having the same problem there should already be a recall in place.

- Winnsboro, TX, USA

My vehicle was parked and locked. I unlocked the door with the remote key and after pulling the exterior driver side door handle to open the door, the plastic piece surrounding the area where a key may be inserted broke off and the handle itself remained pulled away from the car and the door could not be opened from the outside. I am now only able to open the driver side door using the inner handle after climbing across the passenger seat inside the car.

- Tampa, FL, USA

Approximately May 2019 I started having problems with the rear passenger door not being able to open from the outside or inside although the car was unlocked. Currently, it has been stuck closed for numerous months now. To me, this is a safety issue for anyone riding in the rear seat. Especially if involved in an accident and can't get out of the car. Today, 6/30/20 I started having the same problem with the front passenger door.
