2017 HYUNDAI ELANTRA Complaints

REAR DRIVER PASSENGER DOOR WILL NOT OPEN INSIDE OUTSIDE. IT WORKED FINE, THEN I LOCKED IT AND WENT INTO WORK AND NOW IT WON'T OPEN AT ALL. CHILD LOCK.WAS IN USE AND I HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO GET IT TO OPEN. MILEAGE 78,500

UNABLE TO OPEN DRIVERS FRONT DOOR WITHOUT TRYING AT LEAST 4 TIMES. THIS IS ONLY ONCE IT IS IN THE LOCK POSITION AND I UNLOCK IT. LIGHTS IN AUTO POSITION RANDOMLY GO ON AND OFF WHILE DRIVING

BACK DOORS WILL NOT OPEN. CALLED DEALERSHIP AND SAID THERE IS NO WARRANTY TO COVER HAVING THEM FIXED AND IT WILL BE OVER $1000 TO HAVE THE PROBLEM CORRECTED. DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD THE CAR SHUT OFF AND STARTED SMOKING. IT SAYS THE CAR IS ON AND RUNNING BUT IT IS NOT

THE DOOR LATCHES BREAK AND THE DOOR CAN NOT BE OPEN FROM THE INSIDE OR OUTSIDE. THIS IS THE THIRD DOOR LATCH THAT BROKE ON THIS VEHICLE IN THE PAST YEAR.

COOLANT LEVEL IS ON FULL BUT THE HEAT DOES NOT WORK. THE THERMOSTAT IS ON H, WHICH MEANS THE CAR IS OVERHEATING. NO WARNING SYMBOLS ARE APPEARING ON THE DASHBOARD. I COULD BE DRIVING ON A CITY STREET THE CAR THERMOSTAT INDICATES THE CAR IS OVERHEATING.

THE CAR STARTED TURNING OFF WHILE DRIVING THE CAR, NOT MAKING A SOUND . THIS STATED WHEN BH THE CAR MADE 70,000 MILES WITH WARNING,IT WILL TURN OF RIGHT A STOP AND WHILE DRIVING , THE PROBLEM STARTED IN JUNE 2020, THE EXTENDED WARRANTY WILL NOT HONOR THE CLAIM I TOOK MY CAR TO HYUNDAI AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS TRYING TO FIND WHAT WRONG. HYUNDAI STATED IT IS ENGINE FAILURE, AND I MAKING PAYMENTS ON THE CAR.

THE CAR HAS BEEN STALLING SINCE LAST FEBRUARY, MOSTLY DURING TURNS, AND WHILE DEACCELERATING. SOMETIMES IT IDLES ROUGH AND STALLS AT TRAFFIC LIGHTS. I TOOK IT TO MY DEALER BACK THEN, AND THEY TOLD ME THE PROBLEM WAS CAUSED BY METAL SHAVINGS FROM THE ENGINE PLUGGING THE VALVE THAT REGULATES FUEL. I HAD PERFORMED REGULAR OIL CHANGES AND THE DEALER BELIEVED THAT THE PROBLEM WAS CAUSED BY A MANUFACTURING DEFECT. THE DEALER CONTACTED HYUNDAI, AND HYUNDAI REFUSED TO REMEDY THE DEFECT. THE PROBLEM TEMPORARILY GOES AWAY IF I GET AN OIL SYSTEM FLUSH, WHICH I HAVE BEEN DOING FREQUENTLY. AFTER ABOUT A MONTH, THE CAR BEGINS STALLING AGAIN, PRESUMEABLY BECAUSE THE SHAVINGS ARE PLUGGING THE VALVE AGAIN. THE CAR HAS BECOME DIFFICULT TO START. THIS MORNING IT WOULD NOT START AT ALL.

THE DRIVER SIDE AND PASSENGER SIDE REAR DOOR DOOR NOT OPEN IT JUST STOPPED OPENING. I CAN NOT UNLOCK IT AT ALL. I WAN COMING OUT OF A STORE WITH MY KIDS AND THEY COULD NOT GET IN. THE DRIVER SIDE WAS ABOUT 4 MONTHS AGE IN SEPTEMBER. AND NOT IN DECEMBER THE PASSENGER SIDE.

HI TEAM, THERE IS A GRINDING NOISE WHENEVER I SHIFT MY CAR FROM PARK TO DRIVE. IT HAPPENS WHENEVER I SHIFT FROM PARK TO DRIVE/REVERSE OR SLOW DOWN QUICKLY. SO, I AM CONCERNED THAT THERE IS A SAFETY ISSUE HERE. I FEEL REALLY UNCOMFORTABLE DRIVING MY OWN VEHICLE WHEN THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH IT. THIS PUTS ME TO THINK THAT THIS MIGHT BE A TRANSMISSION ISSUE. THE VEHICLE IS UNDER WARRANTY AND LESS THAN 100,000 KM.

THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR WILL NOT OPEN FROM THE OUTSIDE IF THE DOOR HAS BEEN LOCKED. IF THE DOOR REMAINS UNLOCKED THE DOOR WILL OPEN FROM THE EXTERIOR FINE, BUT AFTER BEING LOCKED THE DOOR WILL ONLY OPEN FROM THE INSIDE OF THE CAR. OTHERS HAVE POSTED ONLINE REGARDING THE SAME ISSUE.
