2013 HYUNDAI ELANTRA Complaints

ENGINE STALLED ON ME. EVERY TIME I PRESS THE GAS PEDAL IT JERKS. SOMETIMES WHEN I START THE CAR IT WON'T START. ALSO IF IT TAKES A WHILE TO START IT WILL STALL THE WHOLE TIME WHILE DRIVING. I CAN PRESS ON THE GAS PEDAL BUT IT WILL DRIVE LIKE 1 MILE PER MINUTE. I CAN HEAR THE ENGINE ROARING, BUT IT JUST WON'T MOVE. I TOOK IT IN TO HYUNDAI THEY FIXED IT, BUT NOW MY CAR IS STARTING IT AGAIN. I RECENTLY GOT ON THE FREEWAY AND RIGHT WHEN I PRESSED THE GAS PEDDLE IT JERKED AND THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. NOW IT'S STARTING TO DO THE SAME THING TAKING A WHILE TO START, AND STALLING OUT OF NOWHERE. I CAN ALSO HEAR ALMOST LIKE A KNOCK AND THE GEARS SHIFTING WHEN I'M DRIVING, WHEN I STOP AND GO I CAN HEAR EVERYTHING. I'M AFRAID TO GO ANYWHERE FAR IN MY CAR BECAUSE I NEVER KNOW WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN. I THINK THIS ENGINE NEED TO BE ASSESSED BECAUSE THIS IS NOT NORMAL AT ALL.

STARTED HEARING A TICKING NOISE IN THE ENGINE ONCE IT TURNED COLD. WOULD HEAR THE NOISE WHEN I STARTED UP THE CAR FROM A STATIONARY POSITION AND NOISE WOULD ACCELERATE AS I PRESSED ON THE GAS AND DECREASE AS I SLOWED DOWN. TOOK TO A HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT THERE WERE METAL SHAVINGS PROBABLY FROM THE ROD BEARINGS IN THE ENGINE. TOLD I WOULD NEED A NEW ENGINE AND PROVIDED A COST OF $8,000.

ON FEBRUARY 23, 2019 I WAS A PASSENGER IN 2013 HYUNDAI ELANTRA LIMITED, WHEN SUDDENLY THE GLOVE BOX OPENED AND FELL IN MY LAP. MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING THE CAR AND WE WERE ON HIGHWAY. I WAS TRYING TO CLOSE IT BACK, BUT THE LATCHES ON THE SIDES OF THE GLOVE BOX WERE NOT LATCHING. IN CASE OF COLLUSION IT MAY BE VERY HAZARDOUS SITUATION. BESIDES, NOBODY WANTS TO HAVE A GLOVE BOX IN YOUR LAPS. *TR

MY 2013 ELANTRA SEDAN BUILT IN ALABAMA ON JUNE 14, 2013, AND EQUIPPED WITH A 1.8L ENGINE. I HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE IT CUT OFF ON ME WHILE DRIVING IN THE MIDDLE OF A CANYON, IN TRAFFIC. THE BRAKES DID NOT WORK. THE CARS STEERING LOCKED UP AND COULD NOT CONTROL THE CAR MORE THAN TO VEER IT OFF THE ROAD WITH THE FORWARD MOMENTUM FROM COMING DOWN A HILL. I WAS TOLD THE ENGINE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED DUE TO THE OIL LEVEL BEING TOO LOW. I HAD JUST HAD IT REPLACED AND CHECKED ABOUT A WEEK BEFORE. THEN I WAS TOLD IT WAS A CONNECTING ROD THAT HAD BROKEN. I'VE LEFT THE CAR AT THE DEALERSHIP AT THE MOMENT BECAUSE I FEEL LIKE THIS IS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT AND WILL NOT PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR A REPAIR THAT WOULD BE COVERED IN CANADA.
