2017 HYUNDAI ELANTRA Complaints

The engine failed without warning! The car stalled and could not be started again. There were no warning lights or indicators that the engine was having problems. The car had fresh oil and luckily I was just completing the safety check after an oil change. Had I been on the road, this could've been dangerous. The Hyundai dealership noted a seized engine with no further explanation without an extra $1000 charge. It will cost $10,000 to replace the engine that was well taken care of and only had 106, 748 miles on it.

White pearl paint peeling exposing metal while advancing and getting larger. Had issue shortly after purchasing the car and was addressed by dealership. Just got recall notice and VIN search showed it was covered since paint is peeling on the rear of the roof now. Different dealer but in same dealership says Hyundai refuses to honor recall because the front part of the roof was already repainted. This was before the recall was issued and was done for the recent purchase. The safety issue is that if not addressed, the roof will rust and damage the structural integrity of the cabin. When I just did a search, NOW there are no paint recalls for my VIN after inquiring about the fix with Hyundai customer service.

Power steering is loose or tight. It turns off while driving. Clunky sounds when it's working.

Doors are locking up for what reason I don't know. This is a safety problem and the dealership wants to charge me for their problems with the car.The maker of this know what the is , but charging 1500 dollars to correct their problem with these doors.

The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Elantra. The contact stated that the vehicle was experiencing an abnormal oil consumption and engine oil needed to be added on several occasions. The contact inspected the vehicle but there were no leaks were found. There was no warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where no leaks were found. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer, but the diagnostic result was unavailable. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 100,000.

Our Hyundai Elantra Se 2017, engine blown. Started with knocking sound and when we stopped on the side of the highway it powered down. We have been told that unfortunately so many of hyundai's vehicle engines have been super problematic within the last decade. We were stranded on vacation. Had to pay for towing twice and a rental car to get back to North Carolina because we had to get back to work. We also have had to pay to diagnose the vehicle twice. We had the issue diagnosed with an independent service center Tuffys Auto in St. Johns Florida and now it currently is at Hyundai in St. Augustine. We have been without our vehicle for over a month and with the trending problems with these engines we shouldnt have to come out of pocket to fix it. Hyundai corporate has not been helpful at all even though we have had a case manager for over a month and they havent given us any info.

When car is unlocked the drivers door will not open until you pull 3 times. Now the passenger door will not open at all from the outside. You have to open door inside car and push door open.

The vehicle engine is burning oil. I found my oil pan having little to no oil and having a burnt smell to it and only 70,000 miles on the odometer. Hyundai made me pay for to have a combustion cleaning to help with the issue and would not cover it! This could have had my car blow up having no oil

I've heard that 2017 Hyundai Engines have had some recalls and looking online at others with these vehicles also experiencing same problems. Car only has 82,000 miles and now cutting off in the middle of driving under 1500 RPMs also shaking until it cuts off. Seems these cars engine warranty should cover the attached repairs as we've always done excellent service on these vehicles. I'm trying to see if there is anything I can do as we now have a $3500 repair and have to get a rental car in order to get to work.

The engine of my vehicle malfunctioned. It is available for inspection upon request, it will have to be towed. The problem put myself and others in danger as the car stopped as I was driving in the middle of a 3-lane highway in the far left lane. Others were put in danger as they had to swerve to avoid hitting me. That itself could have caused a chain collision as other vehicles in the middle lane were put in danger. I was also at risk to get rear ended as one might not notice that my speed has stopped increasing. I have already had it towed to a local Hyundai dealership and auto shop; both said it needs a new engine. Towing receipt is shown below. I had no warning lights on my dash prior to the engine failure. A battery light and check engine light appeared after I was able to safely pull to the side of the road and try to start the car again.
