2017 HYUNDAI ELANTRA Complaints

MY VEHICLE IS A 2017 HYUNDAI ELANTRA WITH 41,000 MILES. I AM THE SECOND OWNER. ON DECEMBER 3RD, 2019, I WAS DRIVING VEHICLE CAR APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY IN TRAFFIC. AS MY FOOT WAS PRESSING ON THE ACCELERATOR, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO SLOW DOWN, AND THE RPM NEEDLE BEGAN TO BOUNCE AROUND. I PULLED MY VEHICLE OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND RESTARTED THE VEHICLE. THE ENGINE LIGHT WAS NOT ON. AT THIS POINT THE DEALERSHIP WAS NOT OPEN AND THE ENGINE LIGHT WAS NOT ON, SO I DECIDED TO WAIT TILL THE MORNING TO CONTACT THE HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP. AS I DROVE HOME, I STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT AND THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO STALL. I PULLED THE CAR INTO THE NEAREST PARKING LOT AND LEFT IT THERE OVERNIGHT. THE HYUNDAI SHOP KEPT MY VEHICLE TWO DAYS. THEY GAVE ME A LOANER CAR FOR THE SECOND DAY, SO I DID NOT MISS ANOTHER DAY AT WORK. THEY STATED THE ISSUE WAS 'FAULTY IGNITION COILS' AND REPLACED THE WIRES. IT WAS COVERED UNDER MANUFACTURES WARRANTEE THANKFULLY. TODAY, DECEMBER 12TH, I GOT IN MY VEHICLE TO GO TO WORK AND THE VEHICLE SHOOK WHEN I STARTED IT. THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON IMMEDIATELY AND I CALLED THE MAINTENANCE SHOP. THEY HAD A LOANER FOR ME WAITING, AND I AM NOW WAITING TO HEAR WHAT IS WRONG WITH IT THIS TIME. I HAVE PUT ON APPROXIMATELY 400 MILES ON THE VEHICLE IN THE LAST 4 DAYS.

PURCHASED CAR FROM DRIVETIME MARCH 2019- HAD SPORADIC PROBLEMS WITH STEERING, WITH ACCELERATION ISSUES. CAR WAS DRIVING OK UNTIL THE WEEK OF DEC. 1ST -CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON 12/4 THEN WENT OFF. ON 12/5 CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND BATTERY CAME ON AND CAR STOPPED WORK WHILE IN PARKING LOT, AFTER 20 MINUTES TURNED CAR ON-IT STARTED UP ,BUT KEPT SHUTTING OFF WHILE DRIVING ON CITY STREETS. ENDED UP AT THE PEPBOY'S DIAGNOSED WITH ENGINE FAILURE.

FOUR DAYS AGO, AFTER THE CAR WAS PARKED, A PASSENGER COULDN'T GET OUT OF THE BACK SEAT ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE SINCE THE DOOR WOULD NOT OPEN (HE FINALLY HAD TO SLIDE OVER TO GET OUT THE OTHER SIDE). IT SEEMS IT WOULD NOT OPEN FROM THE INSIDE OR OUTSIDE. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT SEEMS TO HAPPEN TO MANY OTHER OWNERS AS WELL, AS SEEN ON THE INTERNET WHILE LOOKING FOR A SOLUTION. IT IS STILL A PROBLEM NOW, WHETHER THE DOOR IS LOCKED OR NOT.

A FEW WEEKS AGO I HAD TO BRAKE REALLY HARD WHEN STOPPING AND I NOTICED THAT MY SEAT BELT DIDN'T LOCK. I HAVE TESTED THE SEAT BELTS A FEW TIMES SINCE THEN AND BOTH THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SEAT BELTS DID NOT LOCK ANY OF THE TIMES.

REAR PASSENGER DOOR WILL NOT OPEN FROM THE INSIDE OR OUTSIDE DESPITE THE CHILD LOCKS NOT BEING ON OR THE LOCK ENGAGED. IT CLICKS AS IF THE DOOR HAS BEEN UNLOCKED BUT WILL NOT OPEN AT ALL. CAR IS IN PARK. THIS COULD POTENTIALLY BE A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE AS YOU WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO GET SOMEONE IN THE BACKSEAT OUT OF THE CAR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HYUNDAI ELANTRA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DRIVER'S SEAT BELT FAILED TO RETRACT AND LOCK INTO POSITION. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 66,000.

I GOT MY ELANTRA BRAND NEW! I TRADED A 2016 SHAKER CHALLENGER...I HAVE HAD IT ABOUT 2 YEARS. WITH LESS THEN 80,000 MILES ON MY ENGINE AND I HAVE NEVER HAD ANY ACCIDENTS. MY ENGINE JUST SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING. AS I TRY TURNING IT BACK ON, THERE IS A CLANGING NOISE FROM UNDER THE HOOD...CAR WOULDNT ACCELERATE OVER 35 OR SO...I LIMPED HOME HAVING THE CAR SHUT OFF AT LEAST 4 TIMES WITHIN 15 MILES. BARELY MAKING IT HOME. I HAVE HAD REGULAR OIL CHANGES AS MY GRANDPARENTS OWN A SHOP IN PRINCETON JUST A COUPLE TOWNS AWAY...MY CAR HAS SAT IN MY SHOP FOR ALMOST A YEAR NOW...ITS VERY DISAPPOINTING. I LOST A JOB AND HAVE STILL NOT BEEN ABLE TO GET A DIFFERENT VEHICLE GOING OR EVEN AFFORD TO GET THIS ONE FIXED, AS I AM A SINGLE MOTHER OF 4 KIDS. I AM A VERY SAFE AND CAUTIOUS DRIVER. I HAD JUST ASKED A SHOP ABOUT PRICING AN ENGINE REBUILD AND THEY ARE THE ONES WHO INFORMED ME THAT THE 2017 2.0 HAS A RECALL AND TO LOOK INTO THIS FURTHER...PLEASE HELP... -A DESPERATE MOTHER
