Car would just stall out while driving! Would have to put car in park and then try to turn back on. Also burning through oil very fast. Had to replace the timing belt just for 20K miles later having the same issue!

Since buying my vehicle new, it has had three ignition coils fail at different times. The car begins to shudder, rough idle, not accelerate and all of a sudden just will not respond to giving it gas. This happens at any speed therefore it is a danger especially entering or exiting highways or switching lanes. It has been unpredictable. The check engine light does come on some of the time as this problem is occurring, not before. The dealer replaced the first two coils (51, 576 miles and 56, 446 miles) under the warranty. The third coil replaced (78, 391 miles), they would not cover under warranty, nor would they replace the 4th coil as a precaution.

The vehicle's engine light has been coming on for the past 3 years(2020-2023). I had multiple engine servicing checks done at the Hyundai dealership, but the dealership continued to say that there was nothing wrong with the car until this year 2023. Starting 2023 when I would drive, the engine oil light started flashing on and off and the car kept cutting off at stops AND while driving, which can cause accidents leading to death. In 2023 I started noticing that the oil kept being low, but it did not have an oil leak, it was like the oil was vanishing. Now the same Hyundia dealership claims that reason the oil light flashes on is because engine oil is going into the engine which can cause a fire to the car resulting in death. There are also a multiple lawsuits about Hyundai engines catching on fire and oil going into the engine but the dealership is claiming that it's not my particular model which I do not believe! At this point I am fearful to drive the car because it will definitely stop while in drive and stop in traffic and I'm afraid of having an accident and someone dying in the car or the car Catching Fire in my driveway or garage. PLEASE HELP these companies should not get away with this knowing MANY of there models have oil/Engine issues!!

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.

Have had the vehicle throw a code for a misfire 4 times in the 30,000 miles I have driven it. The times I have taken it to Hyundai dealerships in Northglenn and Boulder, Colorado they tried an update and just swap ignition coils to different cylinders. Example misfire is cylinder 3. They swap number 3 and 4 ignition coils to see if they can recreate the problem I the new cylinder. There is already a TCS 20-FL-001h. I recommend a full recall of these defective ignition coils be put out as the problems are still occurring. The problem is reoccurring and the time it takes to get into the shop is 3 weeks out at this time. By the time I get it in the code usually resolves and I have to wait until I get violent shakes and poor acceleration to indicate it is back. Had an accident in January if 2023 and it seemed the brakes were t working as they should. Twice after that the brakes felt as if they weren-??t stopping as well as they should. I took the vehicle in and had the rear drum brakes adjusted and that seemed to fix the problem.

Ignition Coil Failure on 2017 Hyundai Elantra with just over 29,000 miles. Engine misfiring, jerking, idling roughly, and hesitating while accelerating, along with the Check Engine Light turning on. On-board diagnostic tool generated a P0-301 Diagnostic Trouble Code - indicating that cylinder number 1 experiencing misfires. Took my car to dealer for repair. Ignition coil and software updated pursuant to Hyundai TSB # 20-FL-001H. Cost $321.46. Hyundai would not pay for all/part of the repair because car is beyond the 5 year/60,000 mile warranty, despite this being a safety issue they acknowledged by issuing the TSB to address the replacement of the defective ignition coils. Hyundai previously issued safety recall on 2106 Sonata models related to a similar defective ignition coil issue. See Hyundai TSB # 16-01-003-1. Ignition coils are expected to last at least 100,000 miles. The premature failure of this part, as evidenced by the 2016 recall, and the 2020 TSB, poses an unreasonable safety risk to the public. Imagine the safety issues while traveling on a roadway with your car misfiring, jerking, or lacking power when accelerating, or stalling.

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 bought my 17 Hyundai Elantra back in august 22 and noticed sometime after buying it that it smelled like coolant burning when it ran. So I kept my eye out to see if there where any leaks no leaks. Sometime this year I took the car to central Hyundai to get it looked at cause of the burning coolant smell and because after it had been running if I opened the engine oil area on the top of the engine smoke would come out and the oil was pitch black no coolant was mixing with the oil though. The service area there told me that the car was fine and that it was just burning oil because it was an old car. I went out of state for a few days after that so I got a rental instead of taking my car thankfully cause I drove the car for 2 days when I got back and the engine went completely. I was driving down the road and I spun a bearing then blew a piston through the engine block oil leaked all under the car. I called the dealership that looked at it to complain and they completely switched up what happened the day I got my car looked at and said that hd told me it would be best for him to keep the car to look at longer which is not true. I called Hyundai manufacture customer support and they didn-??t care because of the mileage I have 116000 about and bought the car with about 98000

- Wilson , NC, USA

Originally I had gottem my oil changed at the Hyundai dealership 2 months before. The car was turning off on me while driving making slow turns or slowing down to 5mph or less. Then my car broke down on me and wouldnt turn on. Mechanic was saying there was no oil in and it created a sludge in the engine basically ruining the car. My check oil light never came on, and the oil was just recently changed so this shouldve been apart of the recall where similar issues happened.

The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Elantra. The contact stated while driving 15 MPH and making a left turn, the vehicle failed to accelerate when depressing the accelerator pedal and began to roll backward. The low oil pressure warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, where the engine oil was replaced. The independent mechanic diagnosed that an unknown valve needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The local dealer and the manufacturer were not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 83,600.

-??In early October 2022 when the car owner purchased the Hyundai 2017 Elantra it had 77,717 miles on it. The inspection of the car by the dealership-??s service department prior to purchase did not indicate any concerns with the engine. No mention was made of the need for an extended warranty. -??In February 2023, four months after purchase, the car was taken to a Hyundai Service Department of the same company for an 85,000-mile servicing at 84,107. Again, no concerns with the engine of the car were noted. -??Fifteen days later the car-??s engine died. The same Hyundai Service Department indicated that there was so much carbon buildup that the intake valves and pistons in cylinder 3 came into contact causing metal shavings to blow the engine. They said they had filed a PA with Hyundai Customer Service USA and had been told because the owner is a second owner Hyundai would not pay for the replacement of the engine under the 100,000 K warranty. A new engine had to be installed at the estimated cost of $6790. The Hyundai Service Department indicated this was a reduction in the cost of both the new engine and labor.

The engine failed catastrophically. Yes, available for inspection. Driving down the highway, and engine seized up in traffic. It has been confirmed by an independent service center. No, the car has not had an inspection done by the manufacturer as of yet. No warning.

It all started in 2020. I took my car to Don Wood Hyundai Athens OH for a ticking noise at 60K miles rite after the same dealership performed an oil change. After several weeks of no answers about my car I was told it needed an engine, no one ever gave me a reason as to why. I was also told I would not have any type of extended warranty. 2023 I was driving the car on the highway when it all of a sudden loss power and sputtered and almost stalled. I took the car to Don Wood Hyundai for service when I asked what was wrong with my car I was told it needed a software update and the issue was resolved. While the car was being serviced I found a Hyundai NHSTA service memo about issues with the ignition coils. When I picked up the car I specifically asked if the coils had been checked and if they are the correct ones. No one in this Hyundai Dealer ship could tell me, they completely failed to do a visual inspection. So I take my car back and decide to investigate. I contacted Hyundai about the issue they were no help. I then decided might as well just replace the coils and spark plugs myself since I am at 87K miles. I found a badly corroded spark plug and damaged coil on the car. Hyundai claims their coils and plugs are good for up to 80 - 100K miles. According to the dealership when the engine was replaced all of these components would have been replaced also. So my "new" engine and components have started to fail at 20K miles. Had I not done the service myself the car for sure would have died on the road and created a dangerous situation. I believe Hyundai has a lot of issues with their newer cars that need to be resolved and they are not doing quality work to ensure documented issues are not resolved.

On December 11, I was driving on I-4 and I was going approximately 75 miles per hour and it was my first trip going more than 15 miles outside on my home. My oil light flickered and turned on and as soon as I moved over to the left lane to the right, my car stalled out and I had to pull over to the shoulder. Once brought to Courtesy Hyundai of Tampa, they told me my oil plug was not installed.

- Clearwater, FL, USA

So my car has big patches of bare metal were the paint has peeled completely up bubbled up. Also my engine just started a knocking noise with no warning symbols or anything now I'm going to have to replace the motor. My car doesn't specifically have any recalls but I beg to differ that damn near every one of these cars that they have made has the same problems regardless of the vin

- Kent, WA, USA

The car keeps shaking when idle and has stalled out a few times. I was told it's oil consumption related and to just get oil changes more often. I have had the car stall out on the interstate ramp, on a mountain road, etc. I see other complaints have been written and have not been addressed.

- Springfield, VA, USA

This is the second time my check engine light has come on while driving and car vibrating and shaking in the middle of heavy traffic and also idling at stop lights/signs. Why does this keep happening" The codes were registered P0301/P0302. How dangerous is this especially with small children in the car. Totally unsafe.... The car was first towed to the dealership last year at the same time for the same reason. The first coil pack was replaced and off they sent me. Exactly one year later there goes number 2 coil pack. Not under warranty. How long do I have to hold my breath driving before 3 and 4 go out" Especially if I am out of state and driving 70 mph on the highway.
