2020 HYUNDAI ELANTRA Complaints

I JUST BOUGHT/ FINANCED MY NEW 2020 HYUNDAI ELENTRA ON 11/15/2020 AND RECENTLY IN PAST COUPLE OF DAYS I HAVE EXPERIENCED TROUBLE WITH THE GAS/ THROTTLE/ POWER OF DRIVING MY NEW CAR. THE RPM IN MY VIDEO JUMPS UP & DOWN WITH NO POWER REALLY PUSHING TO DRIVE. I ALMOST GOT INTO 1 BAD ACCIDENT WITH A SEMI-TRUCK. ALSO THE TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR WAS LOW READING PSI OF 29 AND I NEVER RECEIVED A WARNING LIGHT UNTIL WAY LATER FOR PSI READING 32. EVEN THOUGH I AIRED MY TIRES TO THE CORRECT PSI MY WARNING LIGHTS ARE STILL ON.

IT WAS NOTICED ON MY NEXEN TIRE THAT A BUBBLE HAD OCCURRED ON THE EXTERIOR/SIDE OF THE TIRE. WHEN I BROUGHT MY CAR TO THE HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP TO LOOK AT IT, THEY TOLD ME THAT THE BUBBLE OCCURS WHEN GOING OVER A BUMP IN THE ROAD, AND THE CABLES ON THE INSIDE OF THE TIRE PUSH OUT TO CREATE THE BUBBLE IN THE TIRE. IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD WHILE DRIVING, AND A BLOWOUT COULD POSSIBLY OCCUR. THE TECHNICIAN AT THE DEALERSHIP MENTIONED THAT THEY SEE MULTIPLE CARS EACH MONTH WITH THESE BUBBLES ON THE NEXEN TIRES. NEXEN IS THE TIRE COMPANY THAT HYUNDAI USES FOR THEIR NEW VEHICLES. WHEN I CALLED NEXEN ABOUT THE ISSUE, THEY TOLD ME TO FILE A CLAIM, WHICH HAS BEEN APPROVED AND COMPENSATION WILL BE PROVIDED FOR TIRE REPLACEMENT. THEY DIDN'T INDICATE IF THIS WAS A COMMON OCCURRENCE OR NOT, BUT WHEN IN CONVERSATION WITH A REPRESENTATIVE, IT APPEARED THAT THEY WERE FAMILIAR WITH THE ISSUE AND WERE QUICK TO RESPOND ABOUT FILING A CLAIM.

I BELIEVE SOMEONE ELSE HAS LINKED INTO MY CAR USING AN APP, AND HAS ACCESS TO OPEN IT AND ALSO TAKE CONTROL OF THE BRAKES, ETC...

CONDITIONS: WHILE DRIVING ON A FLAT ROAD SURFACE/TERRAIN, MAINTAINING A CONSISTENT SPEED, AND CONSISTENT PEDAL APPLICATION. IF YOU SET CRUISE CONTROL, THE RPMS WILL JUMP BY 500 OR MORE. THE JUMP IN ENGINE SPEED IS MAINTAINED, NOT TEMPORARY. THE SUSTAINED INCREASE IN ENGINE SPEED WILL REDUCE FUEL ECONOMY AND INCREASE MECHANICAL WEAR ON THE VEHICLE. THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN PRESENT SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED BRAND NEW. I DO HAVE A VIDEO BUT THE 5 MB FILE SIZE LIMIT PREVENTS ME FROM UPLOADING.

I BAUGHT THIS CAR SEPT 1ST 2020, ON OCTOBER 3RD 2020 WHILE DRIVING THE CAR PN MY WAY TO WORK ON THE HYWAY THE TRANSMITION SLIPED AND STOPPED SHIFTING AND WOULDNT SHIFT OUT OF 2ND GEAR AMD CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON I WAS QUICK TO PUT THE HAZARD ON AVOIDING COLLISION FROM BEHIND I TOOK IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP. WHERE THEY TOLD ME IT WOULD NEED A FULL TRANSMITION REPLACEMENT DUE TO MANUFACTURE DEFECT. THEY ARE CURRENTLY WITH GDPR THE TRANSMITION TO COME SO I'LL HAVE THIS LONER CAR FOR THE NEXT 2-6 WEEKS.

COMPLETE TRANSMISSION FAILURE UNDER 2,800 MILES ON THE CAR. HELD 5TH GEAR ONLY AND LIMPED TO VICTORVILLE HYUNDAI WITH CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. EXTREME LOSS OF POWER, DANGEROUS DRIVING CONDITIONS WITH SUDDEN LOSS OF GEARS AND POWER. IN MOTION, HIGHWAY DRIVING AT 60 MPH.

ON JUNE 4,2020, MY 2020 HYUNDAI ELANTRA'S TRANSMISSION FAILED. THIS CAR HAD ONLY 8,000 MILES ON IT. I WAS ON HIGHWAYS, CITY STREETS, AND THE CAR WOULD STALL AT LIGHTS AND NOT ACCELERATE. THE DRIVERS BEHIND ME DID NOT KNOW THAT WHEN THE LIGHT CHANGED, MY CAR MAY OR MAY NOT MOVE. THE TRANSMISSION COMPLETELY FAILED THAT DAY, AND HYUNDAI IS NOT TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE DANGER THEY PUT ME IN. I WAS NOT SAFE IN THAT VEHICLE. THE TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED, BUT I STILL COULD HAVE DIED OR BEEN SEVERELY INJURED THAT DAY. HYUNDAI SUSSMAN IN WILLOW GROVE HAS ALL THE DETAILS. WHEN I ARRIVED TO THE DEALER THAT DAY, AFTER STALLING REPEATEDLY ON THE ROAD, THEY COULD NOT EVEN START THE VEHICLE. I CALLED TWO HYUNDAI DEALERS ASKING FOR HELP. ONE TOLD ME IT WAS SAFE TO DRIVE AND THE OTHER DEALER WOULD NOT ANSWER THEIR PHONE.

THE HEADLIGHTS ON LOW BEAM HAVE A BLACK LINE ACROSS AND ONLY ABOUT 25 YARD VISIBILITY, ON HIGH BEAM THEY ARE A VERY DULL YELLOW AND THE VISIBILITY OUT IS ABOUT 50 TO 75 YARDS. THE LEVEL OF LIGHT IS SO LOW THAT YOU CANNOT SEE ANYTHING IN THE ROADWAY. THESE LIGHTS ARE VERY DANGEROUS. I HAVE CALLED THE DEALERSHIP PARTS AND SERVICE AND THEY TOLD ME THAT I COULD TRY CHANGING THE FACTORY BULB.

ENGINE LOSS OF POWER. WHILE ACCELERATING VEHICLE SEEMED TO HAVE A MAJOR LOSS OF POWER AND REFUSED TO ACCELERATE. 7 SPEED DCT CLUNKS INTO GEAR HARD AND RPMS GO FLYING HIGH BUT CAR WILL NOT MOVE. HAVE TO TURN OFF CAR LEAVE OVERNIGHT.

ON THURSDAY AUGUST 20 I HAD ACCIDENT AND THE FAC FAILED TO WORK AND NOW I HAVE INJURIES, THIS ACCIDENT WASNT MY FAULT. THE MAN WAS IN THE LEFT LANE THEN HE DECIDED TO CHANGE HIS MIND AND CAME ALL THE WAY TO THE RIGHT SIDE AND HE WAS IN FRONT AND SENSORS ON MY CAR SHOULD HAVE ALERTED ME AND DIDNT. THANKS
