2012 HYUNDAI ELANTRA Complaints

2012 HYUNDAI ELANTRA. CONSUMER WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHEN PARTS WILL BE AVAILABLE TO PERFORM TIRE MOBILITY KIT (TMK) SAFETY RECALL. THE CONSUMER STATED THERE WAS AN APPOINTMENT SET TO HAVE THE RECALL PERFORMED. ONCE THE CONSUMER ARRIVED, THE DEALER ADVISED THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE.

The contact owns a 2012 Hyundai Elantra. The contact stated while driving 65 MPH, the valves were tapping in the engine. The dealer was contacted and the contact was informed that she needed to pay for a diagnostic test on the vehicle. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was 40,000. The VIN was not available.

I received notice of Safety Recall Number 193 from Hyundai Motor America. I contacted the service department at 2 local dealerships - Hyundai Fairfax and Hyundai Springfield - about a month ago to try to schedule this preventive maintenance but neither location replied to my inquiry. I don't know if recalls are optional for dealerships but I don't know what else to do. I was informed in an online chat that I could submit this dealership complaint through your website. I hope you can advise on my options/next steps. Thank you.

The contact owns a 2012 Hyundai Elantra. The contact stated that when he started the vehicle, he heard a knocking sound coming from the engine. The vehicle was taken to the dealer to be diagnosed. The contact was informed that an oil change was needed. The oil change was performed; however, the failure persisted. The manufacturer was contacted and notified of the failure. The manufacturer referred the contact to the dealer for assistance since the vehicle was not under recall for the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 80,000. The consumer stated that their Hyundai was still under 100,000 warranty.

The sterring wheel makes a noise and sounds crazy every time you tuen it back and fourth the windows wont go down on there own and i replaced the fuse so that electric the gas goes down everytime i fill up its goes down to half tank like its eating the gas

Airbag light came on for no reason. Took the car to the dealership. Diagnostics test revealed faulty airbag control module. Dealership recommended replacement of the airbag control module. The cost of replacement is $1,042. Hyundai warranty does not cover the airbag control module after 5 years / 60,000 miles. I am concerned about this as this is the basic safety feature of the car and the cost of replacing the unit is prohibitive. I'm also concerned about the fact that the essential feature such as airbag control unit can fail for no apparent reason.

Airbag light stays on all the time. Many people online are complaining about the same problem. This is a major safety issue and there should definitely be a recall on these airbags.

The contact owns a 2012 Hyundai Elantra. The contact stated that while his wife was driving at an undisclosed speed, the steering wheel made clicking sounds while turning the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who diagnosed that the steering column needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 89,000.

The component that failed was the front driver's side spring, and the piece that broke off is available for inspection upon request. The part failed while trying to leave my driveway to go to work on the morning of Fri, 3/18/22. Had the part failed while driving on the highway, I could have had an accident and worse. The vehicle was serviced by an independent service station, and verified that the spring fractured and had replaced the struts/springs on both front sides. The part has not been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance reps or others. There were no warning lights, but I only heard a very loud scraping noise as I tried to exit my driveway. There were no other symptoms or warnings. Side note: There is Safety Recall on the 2011 Hyundai Elantra for the exact same issue on cars in the NorthEast US States that salt their roads in the winter. That Safety Recall is NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V629000.

My motor has a knocking noise, it has not been inspected by anyone, oil has been changed, engine light is on, also my tail lights an brake lights go out an I have changed them 3 different time in the last 2 months, it could cause a accident, I have called dealership an I have no recalls. But when I look it up I see other people who own same car has the same issues.
