2017 HYUNDAI ELANTRA Complaints

ENGINE COILS HAD TO BE REPLACED OR SWITCHED OUT TWO TIMES IN TWO WEEKS. CAR STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING AFTER IT WAS "FIXED" THE FIRST TIME. CAUSING A DANGEROUS SITUATION

I HAVE A REAR CRANKSHAFT SEAL LEAK IN MY CAR. I BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALERSHIP TODAY, 4/4/19 AND WAS TOLD THAT IT IS AN ISSUE DO TO AN ACCIDENT. I DID NOT HAVE AN ACCIDENT THAT WOULD CAUSE THIS ISSUE. I WAS TOLD THAT NOW I HAVE TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION. THIS CAR IS A 2017 WITH 27,400 MILES. I DID NOT HAVE AN ACCIDENT THAT WOULD CAUSE THIS ISSUE.

THE ENGINE STARTED TO MAKE A LOUD TICKING/KNOCK WHEN COLD. HYUNDAI WILL NOT DO ANYTHING SAYING IT IS "NORMAL". THIS CAR HAS A 2.0 LITER NU ENGINE ON THE ATKINSON CYCLE. THERE WERE RECALLS IN THE PAST FOR THE NU ENGINE AND IT LOOKS LIKE THERE NEEDS TO BE ANOTHER ONE.

1. LOW RPM APPROX 300, ROUGH IDLE. A/C USAGE INCRESES THE RANDOM INTERMITTENT OCCURRENCE. 40,000 MILES WHEN ISSUE WAS NOTICED. 2. RELAY SWITCH, RAPIDLY TURNS ON AND OFF. USUALLY AT STOPS AND IDLE. (SOUND LOCATION UNDER HOOD/ ENGINE COMPARTMENT.) 32,000 MILES WHEN ISSUES WAS NOTICED. 3. PASSENGER SIDE, FRONT OCCUPANT SEAT SENSOR. OVERLY SENSATIVE, WARNING FOR SEAT BELT WHEN NO PASSENGER. CELL PHONE AND OR WEIGHT LESS THAN 5 LBS. 5,000 MILES WHEN ISSUED WAS NOTICED

MY CAR HAVE PROBLEM WITH ELECTRIC SYSTEM THE BRAKE LIGHT FAIL EVERY 2 WEEKS. WHEN CHANGE THE SHIFT TO DRIVE TO REVERSE LOSS THE REVERSE

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HYUNDAI ELANTRA. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE LOST POWER AND FAILED TO ACCELERATE. ALL THE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE CONTACT POWERED OFF THE ENGINE WHILE IN TRAFFIC. ONCE RESTARTED, THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO DRIVE NORMALLY. IN ADDITION, WHILE AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT OR STOP SIGN, THE VEHICLE WOULD STALL AND ALL THE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO COAST TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, WHERE IT WAS POWERED OFF AND RESTARTED. THE VEHICLE WAS LATER TAKEN TO ATLANTIC HYUNDAI (LOCATED AT 193 SUNRISE HWY NORTH SERVICE RD, WEST ISLIP, NY 11795, (631) 587-0700), BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 3,000.

MOST OF THE HYUNDAI ELANTRA WHITE CARS PAINT IS COMING OFF. THE PAINT STARTED CHIPPING AND COMING OFF WITH MY CAR. MY CAR IS A 2017 AND I HAD IT LESS THAN 2 YRS. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY DID ADMIT THEY ARE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH MOST OF THE WHITE CARS PAINT COMING OFF. THEY PAID 90% OF THE REPAIR TO MY CAR BUT I HAD TO STILL COME OUT OF POCKET OF $565 AND THEY DIDN'T PUT ME IN A RENTAL WHILE MY CAR WAS GETTINF REPAIRED. I FELT LIKE EVERYTHING WAS UNFAIR AND THIS PROBLEM WITH HYUNDAI WHITE CAR NEED TO BE ADDRESS AS A RECALL.

MY CAR WILL COMPLETELY SHUT OFF WHEN TRAVELING AT A SLOW SPEED. I COULD BE CRUISING TO A RED LIGHT AND THE CAR WILL COMPLETELY SHUT OFF. TRAFFIC ON THE INTERSTATE AND I NEED TO SLOW DOWN...YOU CAN BET MY CAR WILL SHUT OFF. GOING UP A HILL...MY CAR WILL COMPLETELY SHUT OFF. I WAS ALMOST IN AN ACCIDENT TWO DAYS AGO; AS I SLOWED DOWN TO TRAVEL UP A SMALL HILL TO THE PARKING GARAGE, MY CAR SHUTS OFF AND THE CAR BEHIND ME HAD TO SLAM ON BREAKS. EACH TIME I HAVE TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND RESTART THE CAR. THIS IS NOT A FUEL SAVING ISSUE AS HYUNDAI DOESN'T NOT OFFER THAT TECHNOLOGY/OPTION. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN AS THE CAR STALLS WHEN TRAFFIC IS EXPECTED TO BE MOVING. I HAVE NOW TAKEN MY CAR IN TWICE FOR THIS ISSUE.

I HAVE A 2017 ELANTRA SPORT. I CHECK MY TIRE PRESSURE MONTHLY, BUT NOTICED THIS LAST TIME THAT I LOST MORE THAN THE NORMAL 1 OR 2 PSI. AFTER VISUAL INSPECTION, BOTH FRONT TIRES HAVE DEEP CRACKS AROUND THE MAJORITY OF TIRES. I DID SOME GOOGLE SEARCHING AND FOUND RECALLS FOR THE VENTUS S NOBLE 2 BACK IN 2016. I TRIED CALLING MY LOCAL DEALER, BUT THEY HAVE NOT BEEN MUCH HELP, REFERRING ME TO HANKOOK. I CALLED THE HANKOOK SERVICE LINE 800 426-5665, IT JUST RINGS AND THEN TRANSFERS TO A VOICEMAIL THAT IS FULL, AND CANNOT TAKE ANYMORE MESSAGES BECAUSE THE MAILBOX IS FULL. MY TIRE IS A HANKOOK 225/40/18. I READ ONLINE HOW THESE SPECIFIC TIRES CAN CAUSE BLOWOUT WHEN TURNING EVEN AT LOW SPEEDS. THIS IS MY DAUGHTERS CAR SHE USES FOR WORK AND COLLEGE. I WANT TO BE SURE SHE IS SAFE AS ANY PARENT WOULD WANT. ALTHOUGH, I DON'T SEEM TO BE GETTING ANYWHERE WITH EITHER HYUNDAI OR HANKOOK.

THREE DIFFERENT INDEPENDENT PROBLEMS. PASSENGER AIRBAG DASHBOARD KEEPS FLASHING. WEIRD WHEELS SOUND WHILE TURNING EITHER SIDE. PASSENGER'S SEAT BELT IS NOT FUNCTIONING.
