2014 HYUNDAI ELANTRA Complaints

THE REAR SEAT BELT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE DOES NOT RETRACT. IT IS ALWAYS LOOSE. NO ONE HAS SAT THERE SO WE JUST NOTICED IT RECENTLY WHILE CLEANING THE CAR.

08-26-16 WHILE PULLING INTO A PARKING SPACE AT A PUBLIC PARK WHILE DOING LESS THAN 5 MILES PER HOUR, I EXPERIENCED RAPID UNINTENDED ACCELERATION, PLOWED THROUGH A FENCE, SIDESWIPED A TREE, WENT OFF A GRASSY MEDIAN BACK UP ONTO A GRASSY MEDIAN AND THEN BOUNCED OFF OF THAT BEFORE THE CAR FINALLY CAME TO REST. MY BRAKES DID NOT WORK AND I HAD NO CONTROL OVER THE VEHICLE. IT IS A MIRACLE THAT I AM NOT DEAD AS THE PARK IS ON A VERY BUSY 4 LANE ROAD AND IS USUALLY FULL OF CHILDREN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HYUNDAI ELANTRA. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH, THE BRAKES FAILED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED AT LEAST TWENTY TIMES DURING THE PAST YEAR. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER ONCE FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING, BUT WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000. ...UPDATED 07/10/17 *BF UPDATED 09/22/2017 *JS

WANTS TO STALL WHEN PUSHING ON BRAKES, AND WHEN I LET OFF BRAKES IT WANTS TO STALL, MY GAS MILEAGE STAYS THE SAME ,AND MY TEMPERATURE GAUGE GOES UP FAST WHEN'S I START THE VECHICLE. MY LIGHTS IN MY CAR DON'T COME ON TO MUCH. AND IT'S SEEM TO BE RUNNING ROUGH IN CERTAIN AREAS THEN IT GOES BACK TO RUNNING GOOD WHEN I GET FURTHER AWAY FROM MY HOUSE I HAD MY CAR AT DEALERSHIPS 3 TIMES AND THEY SAY NO CODES. AND THE CAR DOES THIS WHEN I SIT STILL AND WHEN I PUSH ON THE GAS. IT DOES IT IN CITY HIGHWAY SEEMS TO BE RUNNING NORMAL. DEALERS DON'T KNOW WHAT'S WRONG

THE STEERING STICKS IN THE CENTER POSITION. EXTRA EFFORT IS REQUIRED TO MOVE THE STEERING WHEEL LEFT OR RIGHT FROM THE CENTER POSITION WHEN DRIVING. CONDITION DEVELOPED AT 12,000 MILES.

AFTER LESS THAN 2 YEARS, THE CAR BATTERY DIES AND DISABLES THE CONTROL OF THIS PARTICULAR CAR AND YEAR. MANY CUSTOMERS, ACCORDING TO REVIEWS, SEEM TO HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. SHOULD THE BATTERY FALTER WHEN DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY, SERIOUS ACCIDENTS COULD RESULT. MY VEHICLE WAS MOVING AT A SLOW PACE IN THE PARKING LOT WHEN THE BATTERY DIED. I LOST CONTROL OF THE CAR. I WAS NOT EXPECTING THE BATTERY TO DIE AS IT IS ONLY ABOUT 18 MONTHS OLD. I DO NOT HAVE A PICTURE. THE CAR IS AT THE DEALERSHIP.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HYUNDAI ELANTRA. WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, THE DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR RELEASED IN A DOWNWARD POSITION INDEPENDENTLY AND DISTORTED THE CONTACT'S VISIBILITY. THE CONTACT PLACED THE SUN VISOR IN THE CORRECT UPWARD POSITION, BUT IT WOULD NOT REMAIN SECURED. IN ADDITION, THE FAILURE OCCURRED WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS NOT IN OPERATION. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 40,000.

I'VE HAD TROUBLE STARTING THE CAR MULTIPLE TIMES. ALL LIGHTS WILL WORK FINE, RADIO, POWER LOCKS AND WINDOWS ALL WORK, THE CAR JUST DOESNT START. I HAD IT BROUGHT BACK TO THE HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP I BOUGHT IT FROM AND WAS TOLD BY THE SERVICE GUYS IT STARTED UP NO PROBLEM FOR THEM AND THEY COULDNT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. I'VE NOTICED THAT WHEN IT HAPPENS, TAKING THE CAR OUT OF PARK, AND THEN SHIFTING BACK TO PARK SEEMS TO TRIGGER SOMETHING AND THEN THE CAR WILL START. IT HAPPENS RANDOMLY

SOMETIMES WHEN I GO TO START MY CAR IT WON'T EVEN START. I HAD THE BATTERY CHECKED OUT BY SEVERAL MECHANICS AND THE BATTERY WAS GOOD. THEY PUT IT ON A DIAGNOSTIC MACHINE AND THEY SAID EVERYTHING WAS GOOD. I HAVE BEEN LEFT STRANDED SEVERAL TIMES BECAUSE MY CAR WOULD NOT START. I HAD TO WAIT OVER 30 35 MINUTES

THE CAR WILL NOT TURN ON. THE BATTERY HAS BEEN TEST AND IS FINE. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES OVER THE PAST YEAR. THE CAR IS TURNED OFF AND STATIONARY, WHEN THE KEY IS IN THE IGNITION ALL LIGHTS TURN ON BUT THE CAR DOES NOT TURN ON. IT HAS BEEN TAKEN TO MULTIPLE HYUNDAI DEALERSHIPS AND THEY HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THIS IS A DANGEROUS SITUATION BECAUSE IT HAS LEFT ME STRANDED SEVERAL TIMES IN RURAL AREAS.
