2011 Hyundai Elantra Complaint Log

In 2016 left front coil broke and took damage to tire Hyundai took and replaced it for your charged only one coil was replaced on the car in 2019 the other coil broke customers charged $966.30 to do the repair and replace the tire Hyundai says there's no recall on the springs for this vehicle yet I did find a recall saying there was but they're telling me that the serial numbers was no recall on that

REAR BRAKE PADS SEPARATED AFTER 50,000 MILES OF MAINLY HIGHWAY DRIVING (MY HONDA ACCORD, DRIVEN SIMILARLY, HAD BRAKE PADS LAST 150,000 MILES). VEHICLE IS GARAGED.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY MY CAR SUDDENLY LURCHED AND A DISTURBING NOISE STARTED COMING FROM THE FRONT ON MY CAR. PLEASE SEE THE ATTACHED PROBLEM DESCRIPTION PDF AND ACCOMPANYING PHOTOS.

THE ENGINE IN THIS CAR IS KNOCKING SEVERELY. IT'S REALLY BAD UPON START UP AND CONTINUES TO KNOCK.

The steering coupler started making noises at about 80, 000 miles but I did not know what it was at the time . When I brought the car in at over 100,000 miles, I was informed of the loose couplet, to cost about &400 to fix andit wasn’t covered, because over the 100, 000. I did not have it fixed at that time.(I believe mileage was about 110, 00 at that point). I never received any info on this issue, and feel it should have been covered and that Hyundai should still cover it. There is approximately 128, 000 miles now.

ENGINE TICKING AT IDLE AND ACCELERATION. HAD LIFTERS REPLACED AND OIL PUMP COSTING $1500. ENGINE CONTINUED WITH TICKING NOISE. BROUGHT IT TO MY LOCAL HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP WHICH IS 2.5 HOURS AWAY. THEY TOLD ME I NEEDED A NEW MOTOR. HYUNDAI HAS DECLINED THE REQUEST RELATED TO MILEAGE AND TIME. REALLY. THIS VEHICLE ONLY HAS 79,000 MILES ON IT. HYUNDAI CURRENTLY HAS A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT RELATED TO THE TICKING NOISE. HYUNDAI KNOWS THAT THE ENGINES ARE FAULTY BUT REFUSE TO PUT OUT A RECALL. HOW CAN YOU LET HYUNDAI CONTINUE TO RESELL THESE CARS. THIS IS BASICALLY FRAUD. HYUNDAI ELANTRAS FROM 2011-2016 WITH THE 1.8L ENGINE ARE THE ONES AFFECTED. HYUNDAI DOESN'T STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT. I HAVE NEVER HEARD OF A MOTOR GOING WITH ONLY 79,000 MILES ON IT. SOMEONE NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING TO MAKE HYUNDAI ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR FAULTY PRODUCTS. TAKE THE VEHICLES WITH THE 1.8L OFF THE MARKET.

THE BREAK SWITCH IS FAULTY RESULTING IN MY BREAK LIGHTS NOT ILLUMINATING.

FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE SUSPENSION COIL BROKE WHILE DRIVING DOWN A CITY STREET DURING THE WINTER TIME AT LOW SPEED. THIS SEEMS LIKE THE SAME (OR AT LEAST VERY SIMILAR) ISSUE AS 15V629000, WHICH COVERS THE SAME MAKE, MODEL, AND MANUFACTURE DATE AS MY CAR, BUT MY VIN IS NOT IN THAT RECALL.

KNOWN HYUNDAI ENGINE PROBLEMS THE ENGINE HAS A TICKING NOISE THAT I HAVE FOUND TO BE A MANUFACTURED ISSUE IN HYUNDAI ELANTRAS. THE CAMSHAFT BUSHINGS ARE WORN AWAY AND NEEDS A COMPLETELY NEW ENGINE. ALL OF WHICH IS A MANUFACTURING FAULT. THE TICKING IS AUDIBLE WHEN IDLING AND EVEN MORE SO WHEN THE ACCELERATOR IS PUSHED.

ENGINE HAS TROUBLE STARTING OR STALLS OFTEN. WAS TOLD TO REPLACE WHOLE ENGINE WHEN I WENT IN AWHILE AGO DUE TO ISSUE OF STARTING, NOISE AND OIL LEAK. TPMS SENSOR I THINK IS SHOT TO EVERY TIME I FILL UP AIR IT STILL SUGGESTS ISSUE WITH TIRES. WINDOWS ALSO GET STUCK DOWN OR UP.

RECALL 133 FOR 2011 HYUNDAI ELANTRA, I HAVE OWNED THIS CAR FOR ABOUT A YEAR AND A HALF. (MANY PROBLEMS SINCE I OWNED IT) BUT YESTERDAY A COIL SPRING BROKE AND SLASHED THE INSIDE OF MY TIRE, VERY DANGEROUS! I HAD TO GET MY CAR TOWED. MY MECHANIC DAID THERE IS A RECALL BUT HYUNDAI WOULDN'T RECOGNIZE IT. HE ALSO IT'S THE THIRD CAR HE'S HAD TO REPAIR FIR BROKEN HYUNDAI COIL SPRINGS!! IS THERE ANYTHING YOU CAN DO TO HELP?

2011 ELANTRA SPRING COIL FAILURE... OUR FAMILY HAS GREAT CONCERNS TO THE PUBLIC SAFETY REGARDING THE RISK MANAGEMENT ACTIVITIES BY HYUNDAI ON NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER 15V629000 (MANUFACTURER RECALL 133). REVIEWING THE 20 NHTSA RECALL DOCUMENTS ATTACHED TO THIS RECALL AND OUR OWN PERSONAL EXPERIENCE, WE BELIEVE THAT THE RISK MANAGEMENT ACTIVITIES, INCLUDING: FAILURE INVESTIGATION, CORRECTIVE/PREVENTIVE ACTIONS AND RANGE OF VEHICLES AFFECTED NEEDS TO BE REVISITED... SEE ATTACHED PDF AND IMAGES FOR DETAILS

THE CRANKSHAFT PULLEY STRIPPED FROM CRANKSHAFT! ABOUT 30K MILES BEFORE WE STARTED NOTICING ENGINE NOISES - LOUD TICKING NOISES. AFTER HAVING MY SPOUSE PARK THE VECHICLE BECAUSE WAS HARD KNOCKS, I TOOK IT OUT WITH MY DAUGHTER TO TAKE HER TO GUITAR LESSONS AND TO LISTEN TO IT AS I DROVE. ON THE WAY BACK TO THE (LESS THAN 3 MILES) THE ENGINE DIED AS THERE WAS A LOUD SCREECH/KNOCK. I RESTARTED THE ENIGNE AND DROVE BACK HOME. THE COOLANT AND OIL WAS EVERYWHERE. THAT'S WHEN I NOTICES THE PULLEY WAS LOOSE AND I WAS ABLE TO PULL IT OFF THE CRANKSHAFT. THE ODDEST THING I'VE EVER SEEN. THE ENGINE (I BELIEVE) STILL STARTS BUT TICKETING DOES PERSIST. NOT SURE WHAT HAPPENED BUT CLEARLY THE ENGINE HAD SOME ISSUES WITH IT. THERE WAS NOTHING WE'VE DONE WITH THE VEHICLE OTHER THAN NORMAL, HIGHWAY DRIVING. I'VE CONTACT CORPORATE HYUNDAI AND THEY HAVE INDICATED IT'S NOT LONGER COVERED AND NO WORK CAN BE DONE ON IT. MY CONCERN - OUTSIDE OF 5K LOST ON THE VEHICLE IS THIS IS A MAJOR CONCERN FOR ALL THE VEHICLES OUT THERE - ESPECIALLY AT THE LOWER MILEAGE. I FREAKED OUT ON THE ROAD WHEN I HEARD THE NOISES AND FELT LIKE MY ENGINE COMPLETELY FELL APART. MY SAFETY WAS MY CONCERN. SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THIS ENGINE AND IT'S NOT JUST MINE. IF IT HAPPENED TO ME...A SIMILAR OCCURRENCE IS HAPPENING TO OTHERS. I SENSE HYUNDAI IS NOT DOING IT'S PART TO RECTIFY THIS ISSUE ESPECIALLY WITH SUCH A CORE/CRITICAL PART OF THE VEHICLE. I'VE LOST CONFIDENCE IN THEIR VEHICLES...ESPECIALLY WITH LACK OF OWNERSHIP OF THE ISSUES. (VEHICLE IS STILL AT DEALERSHIP AT THE TIME OF THE WRITING). I'LL BE PICKING IT UP TODAY. I"M ESTIMATING THE DATE THIS HAPPENED...BECAUSE I DIDN'T MARK IT DOWN. I TRIED TO TOW IT MYSELF TO THE DEALERSHIP WITH MY TRUCK BUT I TOOK THE BUMPER OFF SO FINALLY GOT A REAL TOW IN TO PICKER IT UP AND RELIEVED IT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 HYUNDAI ELANTRA. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED, AN ABNORMAL NOISE WAS DETECTED. ALSO, WHILE DRIVING MORE THAN 60 MPH OVER A BUMP, THERE WAS AN ABNORMAL CLICKING NOISE DETECTED FROM THE STEERING WHEEL AND THE VEHICLE VIBRATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE CYLINDER COUPLING AND ENGINE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURES. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 108,000.

THE FRONT SUSPENSION COIL SPRINGS SNAPPED AND RUPTURED BOTH MY FRONT TIRES. IT SEEMS THE FRONT COIL SPRINGS GET BRITTLE IN THE WINTER AND ACTUALLY SPLINTERED OFF WHEN THEY SNAPPED, THIS CAUSED THE RUPTURE TO MY TIRES. I WAS VERY LUCKY TO HAVE BEEN IN A PARKING GARAGE, GOING FIVE MPH, WHEN THE DAMAGE HAPPENED. IT WAS MERELY CAUSED BY DRIVING DOWN A PARKING RAMP. SO, IT WASN'T CAUSED BY SOME TREMENDOUS TRAUMA TO THE CAR OR ACCIDENT. THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE, AND NOW EACH SIDE WILL CAUSE $1036.00 TO FIX (BECAUSE I HAVE TO REPLACE EACH SIDE TIRE AS WELL). THE ISSUE WOULD HAVE BEEN EXACERBATED HAD I BEEN ON A HIGHWAY WHEN THIS HAPPENED, AND COULD HAVE BEEN VERY DANGEROUS.

AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT KEEPS GOING OFF

YESTERDAY, FEBRUARY 8TH 2019, AT APPROXIMATELY 5:30 AM, MY GIRLFRIEND HAD A HIGH SPEED IMPACT (SPEED LIMIT IN THIS AREA OF ALASKA IS 65MPH) WITH A MOOSE. IT WAS A FRONTAL IMPACT ON THE BUMPER/HOOD/WINDSHIELD/ROOF, OCCURING ON THE FRONT DRIVERS SIDE. THE AIRBAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY UPON THIS INITIAL IMPACT. ADDITIONALLY, AS THE CAR LEFT THE ROAD, THERE WAS A SECOND FRONTAL IMPACT INTO A HARDENED, PLOWED SNOWBANK, IN WHICH THE AIRBAGS ALSO FAILED TO DEPLOY. THIS YEAR AND MODEL IS BELIEVED TO BE EQUIPPED WITH DRIVERS, PASSENGERS, AND SIDE CURTAIN AIRBAGS, WHICH ALL FAILED TO DEPLOY. SHE IS THE ORIGINAL OWNER OF THE VEHICLE, AND HAS NO OTHER ACCIDENTS OR REPAIRS PREVIOUSLY PERFORMED ON THE VEHICLE. WE DO NOT KNOW AS OF YET IF A STATE TROOPER REPORT WAS FILLED, WE WILL BE CHECKING MONDAY. HOWEVER, WE HAVE PHOTOS THAT WILL BE ATTACHED THAT CLEARLY SHOW THE,AIRBAG FAILURE.

MY CAR WON'T START WHEN TURNING THE KEY IT WOULD MAKE A CLICK NOISE BUT WON'T TURN ON UNLESS YOU TRY SEVERAL TIMES AND SOMETIMES IT WOULD TAKE A HOUR OR MORE TO DO SO. TWO YEARS AGO CHANGED THE BATTERY THINKING IT WAS THAT BUT AFTER ALL THE DEALER SAID IT WAS THE STARTER SO IT GOT CHANGED. THREE YEARS SINCE THEN NOW I AM HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. TOOK IT TO THE MECHANIC AND THE CAR LOOKS FINE EVERYTHING WAS DIAGNOSED AND SEEMS OK SO DECIDED TO LEAVE IT OVERNIGHT SO THEY CAN TEST IT NEXT DAY. ONCE THEY DID THE CAR DIDN'T WANT TO TURN ON SO THEY BOOSTED IT AND SAID IT WAS THE BATTERY. AFTER CHANGING THE BATTERY THREE DAYS LATER THE CAR STILL GIVING ME THE SAME PROBLEM SOMETIMES IT WON'T TURN ON. NEXT STEP WILL BE CHANGE THE STARTER AGAIN BUT MECHANICS CAN'T FIND THE REAL PROBLEM BECAUSE ONCE THE CAR DESIDES TO TURN ON THERE IS NO PROBLEM BUT IT IS A STRUGGLE NOT KNOWING WHEN AND WHERE THIS WILL HAPPEN, IT IS VERY UNSAFE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 HYUNDAI ELANTRA TOURING. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, AN ABNORMAL TICKING NOISE WAS HEARD COMING FROM THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE NOISE WAS PERSISTENT. LUTHER BURNSVILLE HYUNDAI (14700 BUCK HILL RD, BURNSVILLE, MN 55306, (612) 424-7923) INFORMED THE CONTACT TO BRING THE VEHICLE IN TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO STATED THAT THE PISTONS WERE CAUSING THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 45,000. *BF *JB

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 HYUNDAI ELANTRA. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED OR WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE CONTACT HEARD AN ABNORMAL TICKING NOISE EMERGING FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO PEACOCK HYUNDAI COLUMBIA (310 GREYSTONE BLVD, COLUMBIA, SC 29210, (803) 799-1234) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ENGINE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED.

FRONT COIL SPRING FRACTURED AND CONTACTED TIRE. LUCKILY I WAS PULLING OUT OF MY PARKING SPOT. BY THE LOOKS OF THE DAMAGE TO THE TIRE, I AM VERY FORTUNATE I HAVE BEEN LIKE THIS AND NOT AT ANY LEVEL OF SPEED. THE FOLLOWING MORNING I LOOKED INTO THE PROBLEM AND FOUND AN ARTICLE BY EDMOND IN MAY 2015 THAT TALKED ABOUT YOUR ORGANIZATION RECALLING HYUNDAI ELANTRA'S?S FOR FRONT COIL SPRING PROBLEMS. FROM THE ARTICLE THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED TO MY CAR. I CALLED HYUNDAI CORPORATION THEY SAID IT WAS NOT UP FOR A RECALL. TWO CALLS TO DEALERSHIPS I WAS AGAIN TOLD THERE WAS NO RECALL. PLEASE FORCE HYUNDAI TO RECALL THIS POTENTIALLY DEADLY ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN AT THEIR EXPENSE. THANK YOU, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

AIRBAG LIGHT STAYS ON. NO ACCIDENTS, NOTHING HAS HAPPENED TO CAR IT JUST RANDOMLY TURNED ON AND HAS STAYED ON. VERY UNSAFE TO BE DRIVING IN A CAR WITH MY FAMILY WITH THE CHANCE THE AIRBAGS WOULDN'T DEPLOY IF WE WERE IN AN ACCIDENT. SHOULD BE A RECALL.

AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON AND STAYS ON AIR BAG PROBABLY WANT WORK AND THAT IS A SAFETY FEATURE

MY 2011 HYUNDAI ELANTRA HAS THIS TICKING SOUND COMING FROM THE ENGINE FOR OVER 12MONTHS. I HAS CONSTANTLY CALLED EVEN HAD THE CAR TOWED 4 TO 5 TIMES TO THE SAME DEALERSHIP FOR THE SAME THING THAT THE HYUNDAI MOTOR WANT AND WOULDN'T DECLARED THE CAR A LEMON. THE CAR CONSTANTLY WOULD NOT START OR WHEN IT DID START WHILE DRIVING IT WOULD SLOW DOWN AND THEN SHUT COMPLETELY OFF WHERE I WOULD HAVE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE BACK UP. THE CAR IS ALWAYS KEEPED IN A CLOSE GARAGE AND REGARDLESS TO THE WEATHER IT CONTINUE TO MAKE THIS LOUD RAZZING NOISE IN THE ENGINE. SERVICE MANAGER CHAD REPEATEDLY TOLD ME THAT THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG AND THAT IT WAS BECAUSE OF THE WEATHER. NOW THE DEALERSHIP WANTS ME TO PAY 7000 DOLLARS FOR A NEW ENGINE

RATTLING/KNOCKING NOISE WHILE CAR IS RUNNING, INCREASE IN NOISE AS YOU ACCELERATE.

DRIVING OVER A SPEED BUMP BOTH FRONT SPRING BROKE CAUSING A FRONT TIRE TO BE PUNCTURED.

THERE WAS TOTAL ENGINE FAILURE WHEN THE CAR REACHED ABOUT 80K MILES. THIS IS KNOWN FOR IN THE 2011 HYUNDAI ELANTRAS BUT HYUNDIA HAS YET TO RECALL THE ELANTRAS JUST THE SONATAS. DESPITE CONSTANT AND FREQUENT OIL CHANGES OIL SLUDGE FORMED AND ENTERED THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT COMPLETELY RENDERING IT UNREPAIRABLE. A "NEW" ENGINE HAD TO BE PLACED BUT I WAS WARNED THE PROBLEM COULD OCCUR AGAIN BUT A RECALL STILL HAS NOT BEEN ISSUED. THIS IS DANGEROUS AS THE ENGINE WAS SPUTTING OUT, MISFIRING AND BLUE SMOKE WAS BEING RELEASED FROM THE EXHAUST DUE TO THIS

THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON AND WILL NOT GO AWAY. I HAVE NOT GOTTEN INTO ACCIDENT NOR HAVE THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED.

TAKATA RECALL: WE HAVE HAVE TAKEN THE CAR TO GET INSPECTED DUE TO ENGINE LIGHT COMING ON AND OFF AND HAVE HAD TO MAKE PAYMENTS ABOUT DIFFERENT FIXES THAT WOULD APPARENTLY HELP ONLY TO NOTICE NO CHANGE AND THE LIGHT WOULD COME BACK WITHIN DAYS OR WEEKS AND COME ON AND OFF . THERE IS A SUDDEN CHANGE IN THE WAY THE VEHICLE DRIVES AFTER THE LIGHT COMES ON, AND THEN GOES AWAY. THIS NORMALLY HAPPENED IN FREEWAYS.

MY CAR HAS HAD ENGINE LIGHT ON OVER ONE YEAR SINCE I BOUGHT IT USED, DIFFERENT SHOP TRIED TO FIX IT BUT THEY CAN'T GET IT ,THEY SAID IT IS BECAUSE OF VEHICLE BAD SYSTEM ITSELF SO WHY IT SHAKES EVERY SINGLE TIME,ELECTRICAL POWER SYSTEM IS NOT GOOD,THE HEATING SYSTEM WAS DOWN,THE FIXED IT A COUPLE DAYS FROM NOW BUT STILL IT ISN'T WORKING PROPERLY.THE PROBLEM CAME IN WHEN I WAS DRIVING IN HIGHWAY I-295 MAINE STATE.

AFTER GETTING ON THE ON-RAMP ON THE HIGHWAY I SHIFTED MY MANUAL TRANSMISSION FROM 4TH TO 5TH GEAR TO ACCELERATE TO 50 MPH BUT THE GEAR DIDN'T SHIFT TO 5TH AND THE ENGINE WAS INADVERTENTLY REVVED UP TO 4 ON THE TACHOMETER WITHOUT ANY INCREASE IN SPEED; IT FELT AS IF I STEPPED DOWN ON THE GAS PEDAL WHILE IN NEUTRAL. I DROVE THE NEXT 25 MILES HOME IN 4TH GEAR AT 45 TO 50 MPH.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 HYUNDAI ELANTRA. WHILE DRIVING, THE ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC) INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ACCELERATOR SENSOR WAS CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO LOSE POWER FOR APPROXIMATELY THREE SECONDS. THE CONTACT DEPRESSED THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL AGAIN AND THE VEHICLE OPERATED NORMALLY. IF THE CONTACT PUSHED THE ESC BUTTON, THE VEHICLE WOULD OPERATE NORMALLY. THE CONTACT CALLED DON FRANKLIN LEXINGTON HYUNDAI (3340 RICHMOND RD, LEXINGTON, KY 40509, (859) 263-5020) AND WAS QUOTED A REPAIR COST OF $900 FOR THE SENSOR, WHICH DID NOT INCLUDE LABOR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 125,200.

WHILE DRIVING MY AIR BAG LIGHT KEEPS BLINKING AND MY HORN STOPPED WORKING. RESEARCH SHOWS THAT IT IS RELATED TO THE STEERING COLUMN AND THE PART THAT IS DEFECTIVE IS CALLED A CLOCK SPRING? THIS SHOULD BE COVERED BY RECALL?

2011 HYUNDAI ELANTRA. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO LOUD TICKING NOSE FROM ENGINE. *LD *TR THE CONSUMER STATED THE DEALER FOUND DEBRIS IN THE OIL PAN AND THE ENGINE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONSUMER STATED THAT THERE ARE OTHER VEHICLES WITH THE SAME FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER DECLINED TO ASSIST WITH REPAIRS DUE TO THE VEHICLE'S AGE, MILEAGE, AND NUMBER OF OWNER'S. *JS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 HYUNDAI ELANTRA. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THERE WAS AN ABNORMAL CLICKING NOISE EMERGING FROM THE STEERING WHEEL AND THE POWER STEERING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT CALLED WIESNER HYUNDAI (1645 INTERSTATE 45 N #400, CONROE, TX 77304, (936) 523-6300) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT COVERED UNDER A WARRANTY AND TO SCHEDULE A SERVICE APPOINTMENT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 137,883.

A FEW WEEKS AGO I NOTICED A POPPING NOISE COMING FROM MY STEERING AREA WHEN I MADE TURNS. I TOOK MY CAR TO MY MECHANIC AND HE COULD FIND THE ACTUAL PART BUT KNEW IT WAS COMING FROM THE POWER STEERING ASSIST. AFTER SOME RESEARCH HE FOUND THAT A FEW PEOPLE WERE HAVING ISSUES WITH THE COUPLER INSIDE THE STEERING COLUMN. I HAVE ATTACHED PICTURES OF THE THE PART LOOKED LIKE WHEN HE REMOVED IT. THIS IS VERY CONCERNING SINCE I USE THIS VEHICLE DAILY AND TRANSPORT MY 2 KIDS TO DAYCARE. I PUT LESS THAN 10,000 MILES ON IT EACH YEAR SINCE DRIVING FROM HOME TO MY KIDS DAYCARE AND WORK PUT LESS THAN 10 MILES ON IT A DAY.

THE AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON AND OFF REGULARLY FOR SOME DAYS, THEN FINALLY IT STAYS ON PERMANENTLY. THE STEERING WHEEL LIGHTS DOESN'T COME ON WHEN I TURN ON THE HEADLIGHTS. THE CAR BOUNCES AND SWAY TO THE SIDE EACH TIME I HIT A POTHOLE NO MATTER HOW SMALL THE POTHOLE IS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 HYUNDAI ELANTRA. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO MAKE AN ABNORMAL NOISE. SHORTLY AFTER, THE TRANSMISSION DROPPED AND FRACTURED THE AXLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE CONTACT'S HOUSE. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 144,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.

MY 2011 ELANTRA HAS NO ANY ACCIDENT, BUT THE AIRBAG LIGHT KEEP ON.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 HYUNDAI ELANTRA TOURING. WHILE DRIVING 20 MPH, THE VEHICLE INDEPENDENTLY ACCELERATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS INTERMITTENT. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STOPPED AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT, THE RPMS REVVED WHILE THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS BEING DEPRESSED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO HERB CHAMBERS HYUNDAI OF AUBURN (LOCATED AT 735 SOUTHBRIDGE ST, AUBURN, MA 01501, (508) 832-9990) TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE DEALER CLEANED THE THROTTLE BODY, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. ADDITIONALLY, THE THROTTLE BODY WAS REPLACED BY AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 75,000. *TT*JB

AIRBAG IS ON I RECEIVE A LETTER SAYING THERE IS WARRANTY FOR CLOCK SPRING I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY CHECK THE CAR WHATEVER THEY DID DOESN'T TURN OFF THE LIGHT THEY TOLD ME IF I WANT THIS TO GET FIXED I HAVE TO PAY TO MAKE SURE WHAT IT IS.1000S OF PEOPLE HAS THE SAME PROBLEM SHOULD BE FREE AND RECALL

I HAD ALREADY OPENED A CASE AND WAS WORKING WITH A DAVID BAKER 11131845. HE HAD ASKED ME TO TRY TO LOCATE THE PIECE OF BROKEN SPRING THAT PUNCTURED MY TIRE. I WAS ABLE TO LOCATE THAT BUT ONCE I EMAILED DAVID I RECEIVED AN EMAIL BACK SAYING THAT HIS EMAIL ADDRESS WAS NO LONGER ACTIVE. IF SOMEONE COULD TAKE A LOOK AT MY CASE AND CONTACT ME VIA EMAIL AND LET ME KNOW IF THEY STILL WANT TO LOOK AT THAT PART. THANK YOU!

TAKATA RECALL MY AIRBAG LIGHT STAYS ON CONSTANTLY AND IT SEEMS TO BE AN ISSUES YBAT IS COVERED BY WARRANTY ALTHOUGH MY DEALER QUOTED ME $385

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: IT GRIEVES ME TO ESCALATE THIS CONCERN TO THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY SAFETY ADMINISTRATION. I HAVE ATTEMPTED TO SEEK RESOLUTION WITH HYUNDAI, BUT THE CORPORATE OFFICE IS UNRESPONSIVE AND IGNORANT TO THE SAFETY CONCERN. THE PROBLEM LIES IN THE DEFECT OF THE POWER STEERING COUPLER ON HYUNDAI ELANTRA MODELS THAT AFFECTS TIRES, STEERING, BALANCING, ALIGNMENT. THE MANUFACTURER IS AWARE OF THE DEFECT AND HAS EITHER REPAIRED OR REIMBURSED OWNERS OF HYUNDAI ELANTRA FOR THE DEFECT UP TO 100,000 MILES OR 120,000 MILES WITH EXTENDED WARRANTY. I PURCHASED THE ELANTRA AT 89,000 MILES AND INQUIRED ABOUT A NOISE IN THE CAR. THE DEALER IGNORED IT, AND THE CARFAX DID NOT HAVE ANY MENTION OF THE DEFECT. AFTER TWO SETS OF TIRES, 3 ALIGNMENTS, AND ADDITIONAL REPAIR, I BEGAN TO WONDER AFTER, SEVERAL TIRES BLEW DURING MY DRIVE AFTER LOADING ON THE GROCERIES! HOW CAN THE TIRES WITH 50% LIFE LEFT--ALL OF THEM--BLOW ON THE ROAD? THERE IS NOTHING MENTIONED IN THE MANUAL? SADLY, DURING MY SEVERAL VISITS TO HYUNDAI DEALERSHIPS (BOTH IN TAMPA AND ORLANDO), NOBODY AT THE DEALER MENTIONED ONCE ABOUT THIS ISSUE?! FINALLY, THE LOCAL MECHANIC WHERE I REPLACED THE TIRES INDICATED ABOUT THE COUPLER ISSUE. I REACHED OUT TO HYUNDAI'S CORPORATE OFFICE AND WAS INFORMED TO REPAIR AND WILL BE REIMBURSED. WELL, I REPAIRED THE ISSUE UPON DISCOVERY AT 122,800 MILES, BUT HYUNDAI IS REFUSING TO REIMBURSE FOR THE DEFECT OF THEIR ISSUE. I WRESTLE TO UNDERSTAND HOW THIS IS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE WHEN THE TIRES BLOW UP ON THE ROAD, SEVERAL SETS OF TIRES MUST BE REPLACED WITH ALIGNMENT AND ADDITIONAL REPAIR? I WRESTLE TO GRASP THAT HYUNDAI DOES NOT INFORM BUYERS IN ANY WAY OF THE ISSUE, AND THE DEALERS ARE SILENT ON THE ISSUE. HOW IS IT POSSIBLE? AFTER HOURS OF SPENDING TIME ON THIS ISSUE, ALL THAT I WOULD LIKE IS THE REIMBURSEMENT OF $340 I PAID TO FIX THE DEFECT OF THE CAR.THIS IS NOT MY FAULT!

THE CAR MAKES A REALLY BAD TICKING NOISE IN WHEN I CAME TO AN COMPLETE STOP THE ENGINE STALLED IN IT KINDA JUMPED LIKE IT DIDN'T WANT TO GO I'M SO AFRAID OF THE CAR JUS COMPLETELY NOT WORKING ANYMORE IN I DRIVE EVERYDAY WITH MY KIDS THIS IS REALLY A SAD THING HYUNDAI HAS TO KNOW THESE ENGINES ARE BAD.

THE CAR SENSORS KEEP GOING UP. THE CRANK SHAFT SENSOR IS NOT SENDING A SIGNAL THAT THE CAR IS IN MOTION. WHEN PULL OUT ON TO A STREET OR HIGHWAY AND PRESS THE ACCELERATOR SOMETIMES MY CAR WILL STALL OR DROP SPEED. I FEAR SOMEONE WILL END UP RUNNING INTO THE BACK OF ME. WHEN I COME TO A COMPLETE STOP THE CAR WILL STALL OR WILL NOT ACCELERATE. ALSO THE CAR HEADLIGHTS AND TAILS TIGHT BULBS BLOW WITHIN 4 OR 5 DAYS AFTER PUTTING NEW BULBS IN. THE CAM SENSOR FOR THE BACK UP CAMERA DOES NOT WORK AS WELL.

GOT MY 2011 HYUNDAI ELANTRA IN 2017 AT 94K MILES. AIR BAG LIGHT IS CONTINUOUSLY ILLUMINATED, ESC LIGHT HAD BEEN ON FOR APPROX. 6-8 WEEKS. ALSO, NONE OF THE CONTROLS ON THE STEERING WHEEL WORK. NONE OF THE CONTROLS HAVE WORKED SINCE I GOT THE CAR. NO CRUISE CONTROL, I CAN'T RESET MY TRIP ODOMETER, I CAN'T CONTROL THE VOLUME FOR MY RADIO, NOR CAN I CONTROL THE BLUETOOTH FOR MY HANDS FREE USAGE. WAS TOLD BY DEALERSHIP THAT THERE WOULD BE A FEE TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM LOOKED AT, BUT SAW A HYUNDAI MECHANIC BY CHANCE IN A GAS STATION AND WAS TOLD THAT MY CLOCK SPRING COULD BE FAULTY. THIS IS AN ISSUE, ESPECIALLY FOR COMMUTERS LIKE MYSELF. ALSO, MPG HAS DRASTICALLY DECREASED. WAS GETTING ALMOST 35 MPG, NOW IT'S ONLY ABOUT 25 MPG.

AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON ON A LOT OF THIS MODEL VEHICLES. DEALERS WANT TO CHARGE A LOT OF MONEY TO CHECK AND FIX. I BELIEVE THIS SHOULD BE A SAFETY RECALL. THIS LIGHT COMES ON UNEXPECTED DRIVING OR JUST STATIONARY. AND THE POSSIBILITY OF THE AIRBAGS NOT DEPLOYING IS AN ISSUE

POSSIBLE CRANKSHAFT ANGLE SENSOR FAILURE. CAR WILL NOT START PROPERLY OR STALLS AFTER STARTING AND SHIFTING GEARS. NEW BATTERY INSTALLED 9/29/2018. NO SPARK PLUGS OR ALTERNATOR ISSUES NOTED AFTER MECHANICAL TESTING. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM AS MOST MECHANICS CANNOT LOCATE THE ISSUE IN TESTING.

CAR STALLS WHEN IDLING AND AT TIMES WHEN DECELERATING. THE CAR STARTS RIGHT BACK UP AS SOON AS I AM ABLE TO BRING IT TO A STOP. WHEN DRIVING AT A HIGH SPEED ON THE FREEWAY I DON'T NOT HAVE PROBLEMS.
