The exterior door handle on my drivers side stopped working and now I can only open it from the inside. This happened randomly after I was parked in a parking lot for only 4 hours. It was working fine before that.

Engine will spontaneously shut off without notice while driving or stationary. This has happened on the street and on the freeway. There is no notice prior to call stalling (engine shutting). Car must be placed in neutral or park and then restarted. Car was taken to Hyundai dealership for full diagnostic with no findings.

2017 Hyundai Elantra. Car is shaking heavily at idle, no codes or check engine light. No one will diagnose, turned away by dealership. When turning car will stall middle of intersection, this has happened twice. This is unsafe and dealership will not help me and I am turned away. I'm starting to worry about the safety of my car. I maintain it up to manufacturer standards. Transmission is clunky and not working well. No check engine light, no codes. Dealership and other mechanics will not look into issues. Transmission is sealed system but is in need of fluid change. Fluid is dirty and filled with metal at 55,000 miles. Other people complain of same issue at 35000 miles. Dealerships say this is a lifetime system and does not need service. This car is starting to seem unsafe. The amount of complaints on Hyundai forums to this nature should reflect some need to make the car not dangerous.

The seal on the back doors kept coming off and people almost tripped trying to get out the door. Had to purchase sealant to and line it up on the door. But it was so embrassing.

The check oil light never came on, it's a malfunction. The was no oil in the car, I have regular oil changes, but the engine ceased due to lack of oil and never any warning. Never "check oil light" or "oil low" nothing. When aaa towed they told me oil was leaking that when we checked. The engine is gone and costing me $2,600 to replace on a 2017 ugh. The car stopped in the middle of the street at 3am in the morning. It was driving along and just stopped. The day before the check engine light came on and we had it checked out and the code was P0011 "intake camshaft position timing.

I keep on having problems with my 2017 Hyundai and due to my warranty being over I do not know what to do other than submit a complaint, I bought vehicle new and this is my first Hyundai and my last. I have a 4 door Elantra and the only door that opens without a problem is the driver door. The front passenger door opens only from the inside the the back seat of driver door you have to push the door from the outside then open and just today the backseat passenger does not open from inside or outside. I did google and noticed that their have been others with same problems. Is it possible to issue a recall thie doors not opening is a serious safety issue, especially in a life or death situation

My car will completely shut off when traveling at a slow speed. I could be cruising to a red light and the car will completely shut off. Traffic on the interstate and I need to slow down...you can bet my car will shut off. Going up a hill...my car will completely shut off. I was almost in an accident two days ago; as I slowed down to travel up a small hill to the parking garage, my car shuts off and the car behind me had to slam on breaks. Each time I have to put the car in park and restart the car. This is not a fuel saving issue as Hyundai doesn't not offer that technology/option. This is a serious safety concern as the car stalls when traffic is expected to be moving. I have now taken my car in twice for this issue.

Doors will not open have to pull the handle 5 or 6 times for the door to finally open the passenger door will not open at all from the outside you have to open it from the inside to let your passenger in the car. The back door on driver side will not open from the inside or the outside only the driver side front door and back passenger door will open from the outside the other 2 doors either will not open at all or only from inside. If we was just have an accident or if it was to catch fire with us inside they would have to break the windows or cut us out of the vehicle because none of the doors work properly. The driver door you have to hit unlock and jerk the handle bout 5 or 6 times then it will open finally. I've took door panels off everything is hooked up and in working order so it's gta be a malfunction within the locks or something I can't figure what else it can be.

I've had my rear right door on child lock for a while now, I use that door every day, but the door is not opening all of a sudden, I tried pulling the handle from outside and giving a gentle push from inside at the same time and nothing. I've tried locking and unlocking the door numerous times and still nothing. The window and the lock work, so I'm guessing it's something with the child lock that it's stuck or something.

At speeds under 40-45mph, when turning only right, over bumpy and uneven roads (railroad tracks, manhole covers, humps in the road, seams in concrete), there is a clunking/clicking noise from the front of the car with an accompanying feeling in steering/pedals. Suspension during these situations feels very loose/unsteady. Feels like control could be lost if car is not handling properly.

I leased my 2017 Hyundai Elantra brand new. The thermostat had to be replaced after 3 days and the car had heat for the next 3K miles. Since then the car has had poor heat and eventually just stopped producing any heat. A Hyundai rep was able to recreate the problem and updated the computer in my car. Hyundai has said my car heat has been tested and is now operational. However, my car still has no heat to defrost the windshield. The car takes a half hour of idling to warm up the engine halfway and even then the car doesn't have any heat to defrost the windshield. I live in new england where it's very cold in the winter and can't get enough heat in my car to defrost the windshield to see to drive my car. Hyundai refuses to do anything more about the heating issue, even though it's under warranty because they say it is operating as designed. I believe this is a safety issue because I can't see out the windshield.

I recently purchased a 2017 Hyundai Elantra from non-Hyundai dealer. At the time of the sale, a single key was provided versus a key fob. After driving the vehicle for a short time, the alarm went off on the vehicle which was unknown to me that the vehicle had an alarm. It happened again within a couple of weeks and then I looked into the issue only to learn that the vehicle was sold new with a fob key. I went to a Hyundai dealer and purchased a fob and had it programmed for $185. Money I should not have had to spend. Also, there was a recall on the vehicle that the used car dealer did not update to the vehicle. Is it legal to sell a used car without fob key and not incorporate all recalls?

Engine light came on. Whole engine had to be replaced. Found out engines are dangerous and have exploded. Engines are on back order because of so many Elantra needing a new engine. This should be investigated because no one is warning Elantra owners about this until the cars break down. I am still without my car since June because engines are on back order until late August/early September.
