When driving about a month ago my car all the sudden started making a clinking noise not so much knocking in the engine or near the engine. And then it died all the sudden at a red light out of no where. Well I put the car into park and started my car again when I accelerate the rpm takes a lot longer to catch up to the speed I'm trying to go, so it takes longer to accelerate which is dangerous because cars usually accelerate alot faster than that and I almost got rear ended twice because of it. I parked it for a few days but moved recently so I had to move the car it started and everything but the knocking, or clinking was still there. The following day I went to start my car and know it won't even start and the anti theft light comes on, on my dash board. So now my car is stuck at a motel because of it. I think it may be the crank shaft position sensor. Yes my vehicle is available for inspection upon request. No my vehicle has not gotten in any accidents. It has not been inspected by a manufacturer.

While at red lights, coasting or waiting in drive-thru the car starts jerking and shaking. Will stall and fail to accelerate, sometimes coming a complete stop. Turning on and off the vehicle only works some of the time. This started in 2020 and went on for months while Hyundai kept "fixing" the car. Coils were replaced in 2020. Now again in 2023, exact same issue. On 9/29/23 car starting jerking while waiting at red light, turning car on and off worked. On 10/1/2023 car starting jerking and shaking while waiting in a drive thru, this time it did not stop no matter how many times I turned my car on and off. They are trying to tell me this is wear and tear on my part. Car is no longer drivable since you never know when this issue will happen.

For more than two years, at irregular intervals, the passenger air bag light on the front panel blinks and the associated chime sounds for about two minutes, then stops. This happens with no passenger in the seat. I have asked the dealer (Fitzgerald Hyundai in Rockville, MD) several times to look into this. My concern is that if the air bag alarm cannot be trusted when there is no passenger, how can it be trusted to work when it needs to? This seems to me to be an unsafe condition. The dealership stated that since the problem occurs intermittently, they cannot determine a cause, and advised me to contact Hyundai Motor America and would likely meet with a representative. I contacted the company in July, and was designated Case No. 21751470. Over the next two months, in several email communications with "Carmen, " I was informed that I should take the car to another dealer. I noted that given the intermittent nature of the problem, there was no reason to believe another dealer would have better luck replicating and resolving the issue. That was the total of Hyundai Motor America's help. I terminated the case last month.

For the people that have the doors that will not lock or unlock there has been a resolution for that and I am surprised that it isn-??t on this site. It-??s called -?? DOOR LATCH REPLACEMENT(WARRANTY EXTENSION TXXL-?? number 21-BD-006H you can go to any Hyundai dealership and they will replace it free of charge. I had to do my own research since nobody would help me, including this website to find out the information. This is very disappointing that there was no recall or any information to help anybody regarding this situation. Especially since it-??s a huge safety issue. Not to mention when it rains my car leaks which could be the cause. I do not know, but I will never buy another Hyundai ever again. The lack of support from anybody is null and void and you are on your own to find the information. So nobody has to do the work I uploaded the file for you.

I was downhill turning right. My vehicle turned off. I started it and it turned off again. Happened again. Turned it back on and was able to continue to drive. Luckily for me there was no other vehicles on the road but could have caused an accident if car was behind me. I am planning on making appointment to take to dealer. No warning signs, engine light flashed on when car turned off but that's it.

When coming to a stop, turn or sometimes when driving throttle goes to zero, oil, engine, and battery light come on and gas peddle no longer works (car no longer accelerates). Have to turn car all the way off and restart it and it runs fine (all lights turn off and car accelerates) until coming to a stop again (the same exact thing happens). Went to trade it in as soon as person test drove it he almost crashed because the engine stalled again. This has been happening for months but progressively worsened (happens very often now almost causing crashes)

The attached summary outlines the details of the car as it was purchased, recalled, stolen, and recovered, with pictures of the damage included. The Hyundai recall software was not installed correctly or is not effective at preventing vehicle theft for automobiles without immobilizers.

My car is rapidly losing oil at an alarming rate and I believe the 2017 Elantras should be a part of the Oil consumption recall. For at least over the past year at 111,094 miles, my car needs to have the oil refilled at every 3 week period averaging only 1,000 miles. NO CHECK OIL LIGHT ever comes on, and I am only aware of the fact due to diligently checking my car's oil. Countless mechanics have told me of this issue, that it's not normal to consume this much oil. On other forums hundreds of Hyundai users have stepped forward that they are having the same problem. It was cost me countless repairs and when I did go to Hyundai for arguably the same problem (low oil) under warranty, I was never given a new well functioning engine. I also have reason to believe that Hyundai is WELL AWARE of this issue as the 2017 manual states that owners are expected to check oil every 350 miles which is excessive. There needs to be consequences for this indecent operation of business and these customers need to be compensated.

I can-??t pinpoint the issue as it cannot be checked due to check engine light not staying on. I have narrowed it mostly down to being the Ingnition coil packs as I have a cylinder 3 misfire listed. My car started having this issue in 2021. I would eat my lunch in my car and noticed a drop in rpm-??s while idle along with vibration of the vehicle. It has progressed to vibrating while driving on the road and not being able to accelerate in a timely manner. I know 2 other people that have the same year of car and they are experiencing these same issues. You can find, on the internet, countless complaints related to the ignition coils failing in these vehicles. A recall needs to be created for the safety of the drivers and passengers in these vehicles. It is irresponsible for a company to use faulty components and proves that the safety of their consumers is not in their best interest. I will continue to report the issue until something is done about it.

I received a mailer and text with my VIN stating I had the 993 recall for my anti-theft software in March. I made an appointment beginning of April for May1st for the recall, after going to the dealership I was informed the recall did not exist and the mailer was wrong. After calling hyundai service I was informed that an appointment could be made to fix it and then after another call to Hyundai I was informed that the recall did not apply to my car, also during this call the lady told me that I can just buy a wheel lock to fix the issue.

Check engine lights keep coming on for ignition coils and engine keeps stalling out. This seems to be a common problem and surprise theres no recall. The engine stalling is very dangerous because of the potential to cause a traffic accident. The problem originally started in August and has continue to happen up to date. I have had close calls for a traffic accidents which is very scary. The mechanic said that the issue was recalled but online says something different. I just want this issue fixed and not just patched.

When driving at night, sometimes the headlights and taillights will shut off leaving the car totally in the dark. This is a SEVERE SAFETY ISSUE as you can no longer see the road and other cars cannot see you. The problem appears to possibly be associated with the light switch, as you can jiggle it and get the lights back on. Also related to this problem of the lights shutting off is the fact that occasionally the lights will come on long after the car has been parked in the garage, which tends to drain the battery. After experiencing this problem, I checked the internet and found numerous other cases of Hyundai Elantra owners reporting the exact same symptoms, so it seems to be a somewhat generic problem. Hyundai-€™s service department has been unable to isolate the problem on my car. The problem happens randomly and is infrequent but serious when it happens. It has happened approximately 10 times over the past two years.

The contact owned a 2017 Hyundai Elantra. The contact stated while driving approximately 45 MPH, the fuel warning light flickered and the radio activated and deactivated independently. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was determined that the vehicle was performing as designed due to a satellite not being connected. On another occasion, the vehicle accelerated on its own and the brake pedal hesitated to respond. The contact depressed the brake pedal to the floorboard in order for the vehicle to come to a stop. The vehicle was taken to another dealer due to the above failures; in addition to shuttering and jerking while depressing on the accelerator, as if it was not receiving fuel. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact did a private diagnosis which indicated electrical system malfunction. The contact was informed to start using a halo battery charger to jump the vehicle.
