2022 HYUNDAI ELANTRA N Complaints

over the course of a year I get a "Transmission system error! Check Transmission oil Immediately" message. happened on April 15 2025, again June 20 2025 but car went into limp mode and did not go into 2nd and 4th gear. June 30 2025 went to dealership where ecu was reflashed.The problem went away but then came back on July 26 2025. Dealership could not see me during 2 weeks and by then message error cleared on its own. July 1 2026 message came on again and check engine light came on. Car again did not go into 2 and 4th gear and ended up stop moving. after leaving car off briefly and starting it back up and was drivable. Check engine light came on and I was able to plug in a reader and get code P0868. July second went to dealer and when car was driven into bay light went away. No scan was done to obtain code that was stored and dealer will not look at it. Escalated it to consumer affairs and they will not assist either. These are all symptoms from Recall 236 where the electric oil pump fails and puts my safety at risk.

Fuel injector randomly went out, I dont have the HPFP recall done on my car. Caused a massive amount of power loss while I was going down the road. Now hyundai wants to pretend like the HPFP had nothing to do with this. I keep being told its an emission part and isnt covered under powertrain warranty. Recall in question is Extension Z04 (TSB 25-FL-002H).

Faulty light switch that causes headlights to go on and off at night. Sometimes headlights will shut off completely and not come back on or vise versa staying on and draining the battery. Faulty switch cause complete loss of headlight control. Numerous others have reported the same issue online across all elantras in a certain year range as well as other models.

In Elantra N, the plastic piece (splash guard) under the engine is prone to coming loose and/or coming off while driving. This has happened to me and many many others. Its poorly manufactured, and fasteners (push pins) are really cheap. Part # should be 29110-IB000 The warranty doesn't cover this. This reddit thread has many people reporting same issue. Still there's no recall or TSB: [XXX] People are saying stuff like: "I was driving and the undercarriage guard just fell off. I ended up having to rip broken pieces off and zip tie the rest because I was in the middle of nowhere." Another person- "2022, during the next service the Hyundai mechanics went “Haha yeah, I’ve heard that happens…” and proceeded to do nothing about it." Another person- "Oh boy, this has been a sore spot for me... Mine came damaged when I bought the car, went through hell confirming part numbers, sourcing who had it cheapest (ended up being the dealer because all 3rd party Hyundai part sites want insane shipping for this), finally get it on, just for the same exact experience to happen at 75-80mph... Thought a tire was about to let go as the sound got more violent then CRACK. Realized what it was, then a second chunk broke off, and watched it almost boomerang into the car behind me ?????." For reference [XXX] n This causes part to drag and come off also causing potential harm to other vehicles. Could you make Hyundai recall this or something to come up with a better solution to this part ? INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

I had the recall completed for my Fuel Pump. The fuel pump is still not functioning properly as sometimes it does still struggle to start as sometimes it will turn over and take 5-7 seconds to start the car.

The contact owns a 2022 Hyundai Elantra N. The contact stated while driving 40–50 MPH, the vehicle failed to accelerate as needed. The vehicle went into LIMP Mode while driving. The check engine warning light was illuminated. The contact related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 24V528000 (Fuel System, Gasoline). The vehicle was taken to the local dealer, who was unable to determine the cause of the failure. The vehicle was towed to the same local dealer, where it was diagnosed that a software update to the fuel pump was needed. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure recurred. The dealer informed the contact that the fuel pump would not be replaced until the fuel pump had failed. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure recurred. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer again, where it was diagnosed and determined that the fuel injector had failed. The codes reference the fuel pump, and Oxygen sensor. There were pressure failures, and the engine was running rich. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure persisted. The manufacturer was contacted, and opened a case, but no additional assistance was provided. The failure mileage was approximately 20,000.

Clutch failure at 28,000 miles. Was getting off from a hike and all of a sudden I couldn’t shift gears after shifting to 4th gear.

I was driving on the highway, got a flat tire. The second my tire popped. I started getting a few lights on my dashboard abs, forward safety light, limited differential light, blind spot light, rear cross traffic light. Worst of them all is a red steering wheel light which makes the vehicle difficult to steer. This is a new car with under 20k miles and it’s a lease. After the tire was replaced the lights are still on and the car is still non drivable.

I had 4 warning signs appear while driving in show. Those 4 warnings were Forward Collision Warning, rear cross traffic warning, Cruise control warning, vehicle stability control warning. They were simply not working. After driving for around 5-10 minutes, my steering gradually became very heavy making it difficult to steer. I had to pull over to the side eventually. Controlling the steering wheel put my safety and others at risk. The problem was confirmed by a dealer and they have mentioned it was due to an ABS sensor. No the parts were not inspected by the manufacturer, police, or the insurance companies. Yes the warning lights of 4 error appeared before the steering wheel became heavy.

Horn stopped working around 10,500 miles. Common issue, reported in many car forums.
