I was notified of a recall for the ABS breaks stating that there could be a short circuit issue and could cause a fire in the engine compartment. I called hyundai in late july 2020, scheduled an appointment for a broken window and recall. upon leaving the hyundai dealership I was told that the recall part IS not available and needed to be ordered. it IS now october 15, 2020 and the part has still not arrived. I have called the dealership and they have stated that they have approximately 20 people waiting for this part and they have only received 5 parts. it has been almost 3 months. I believe that the dealership has done everything that they can but hyundai IS lagging. I really hope that the engine compartment of my car doesn't catch fire.

I was driving on the highway with cruise control on. When I turned the cruise control off, the car would not slow down. In fact, the car increased in speed even with the cruise control completely off. I stepped on the breaks and it slowed down a bit, but as soon as I stepped off the break the car would start to accelerate. I made my way off the exit and pressed the break hard and with the help with emergency break, I was able to stop at the side of the exit and was able to turn off the car. as soon as I started up the car again, the engine revved real high. I opened the hood of the car and saw that plastic engine cover had split and the broken piece was jamming the throttle cable. I believe this IS a highly dangerous issue. I've included pictures of the broken part and where the broken part was touching the throttle.

My electronic power steering went out, thankfully as I was backing out my garage. The hyundai dealer said the motor needs to be replaced but the motor IS inside the steering column, so I need a whole new column. This runs around $1,600 including labor. After searching online, this appears to be a widespread issue with the elantra. Even someone at the dealer said they don't know why there isn't a recall. I feel like one should be issued although it would be too late to save me from paying $1,600. *tr

When going around curves more than 35 mph the car will start decelerating (as if it's braking on its own without me engaging the braking system)and the esc light illuminates on dash. Also the exhaust makes a popping noise after engine IS shut off which cause a powertrain issue because the vehicle IS not accerrating properly. I personally know someone that has the same exact vehicle and that customer experiences the same issue.

On 8/3/18, while exiting off highway, I was stationary at a stop light at top of ramp. when light changed, I tried to to turn left, but the steering wheel locked. it was near impossible to turn so I threw on my flasher to help avoid being rear ended. I made an appointment at hyundai dealership as quickly as possible, 8/6 and they performed diagnostics tests which pulled up codes relating to malfunctions torque sensor, steering angle sensor, eps failure, ecu failure. at low mileage of 32,485 miles, the dealer recommended I replace the entire steering column and eps due to internal failure. computer was unable to read torque to ecm. I promptly filed a complaint with hyundai USA to take responsibility to repair. there are hundreds of complaints regarding major manufacturing defects with steering parts breaking, malfunctions, and recalls that haven't fixed the critical underlying problems that resurface. eps module reset/replacement during recall in 2015 did not fix the problem. the dealer stated, the car IS unsafe to drive. why are major steering malfunctions allowed to continue with hyundai USA?

There were no issues with the car until eps (red) and esc off (yellow) lights came on when the car was started one evening, and in turn the power steering was lost. vehicle was driven earlier in the day without any problems. it was parked for about 30 minutes or so, and when it was turned on again the lights came on and the steering wheel felt like it was locked. it IS very difficult to turn the steering wheel at low speeds. vehicle was taken to a local hyundai dealer where error codes c1260, c1604, and c1513 were diagnosed. the dealer performed the steering angle re-calibration and the ecu software update, but the errors persisted. the dealership stated that electronic power steering column and the stop lamp switch needed to be replaced. these exact two parts were a subject of two separate recalls for this vehicle (campaigns # 110 and 127) and were repaired/serviced in 2015 and the recall was closed. it IS very strange that both of these parts would fail again without any notice, particularly the electronic power steering column, considering that the car only has 47000 miles and this part was repaired in 2015.

Nexen n5000 series tires. I had two with side bubbles and two that the treads are separating from the tires. It looks like retreads. One tire was ready to separate at any moment. I have pictures of all the tires and a document from the auto repair place. Luckily, we could this in time before my daughter would have been killed due to these tires.

Driving on highway 65 mph, power steering went out. When I reached my destination which was another 20 miles away I researched and a bit and when I turned car back on a few hours later it was working again. I received a recall letter about it almost a year later. Why did I just receive that? Took to dealership for that and three other recalls (two I was not aware of. The stop light I did get a letter about, however the airbag light has been on for months and I see by reading these other complaints that there shuld be a recall about that. Dealership tells me the whole sterring mechanism IS bad and are replacing this week. The high profile tires have been a nightmare since I bought the vehicle, expensive for that sized car and don't last more than 30K miles. I don't think the tire issue has anything to do with the branding. After reading all these complants, I most likely will not buy from hyundai again. The airbag issue IS an expensive fix, a potential safety hazard and should be rectified by hyundai. Stand behind your product, simple ethical expectation

Airbag warning light IS illuminated in instrument cluster. brought it to the dealer for routine maintenance and had them look into it at that time. they said the weight sensor in the front passenger seat IS malfunctioning. this sensor tells the airbag system if someone IS sitting in the front seat and whether it should be on or not. the on/off light by the controls appears to be working properly. meaning if someone IS sitting in the seat, the airbag off light IS not illuminated. The dealer stated that the sensor IS measuring a negative 100+kg. the only way to repair the problem IS to replace the sensor which entails replacing the seat bottom. they quoted $1500 to do the job. the airbag system IS still working but it takes over 100 kg to turn on the passenger airbag.

The passenger seat weight classification sensor failed and as a result the car shut down the airbag system. The airbag warning light IS on and as such none of the airbags will function. The dealer quoted me at nearly $2,000 to fix the problem, and mentioned replacing the entire seat bottom. requiring a complete seat replacement for a simple sensor seems like a major design flaw. Meanwhile, this really affects the safety of the vehicle as the airbags are not functioning. *tr

When I tried to start my 2009 hyundai elantra touring, I could not move the ignition key or the steering wheel. with great effort in trying to turn the wheel, it has been possible to get it to move. after this happened for the third time, I took it to the hyundai dealer in punta gorda, fl. before he even looked at it, the service manager told me all cars do that. that there was nothing they could do to fix it. something about an anti theft feature and that I had to leave the steering wheel at 11:00 o'clock position. The car now has only 23,232 miles on it and I was stranded again in the grocery store parking lot. this has now happened to me 5 times, in flat parking lots, in the hot sun in florida. I had to call aaa, twice, as I was not strong enough to move the wheel. what good IS a 100,000 mile warranty, if they can't or won't fix the car? I am afraid to drive it, as I would not want to get stuck someplace unsafe. *tr

I purchased the car in feb 2012 at 34,214 mi and in 1 yr time, I kept blowing lights...headlights, fog, brake and tail. I put a lot of miles on my car so by the time I became annoyed by it, I just missed my warranty so I let it go. ffwd to sept 2014, I couldn't keep my tail and brake lights functioning at the same time. after several bulb replacements, it was discovered that it wasn't the bulbs that kept blowing, but rather the fuse. as soon as I turned the lights on, it would pop. nov 2014 at 118,470 mi, I brought it to a dealership to have them research...after 3 days it was discovered that the wires that go around the license plate frame were being pinched by the screws creating a diag short so it was adjusted and I moved on. jan 2015, same problem!! I took it back to the same dealership and after they tore apart the car again, it was discovered that there was damaged wiring to the R/S plate lamp to the extent that they were melted together and every time the lights were turned on, it would smoke. this IS a separate issue that was not seen in nov. it was repaired so it won't happen again, but that was 3 years of electrical drama that should have been avoided. I still have electrical issues inside the car, but at least my exterior lights work. *tr

Kuhmo solus KH16 p215/45r17-87h sidewall cracking and separation. Started at 13K miles and first complete failure at 15K miles.

Vehicle not safe to drive due to risk of blowout of tires. hyundai dealer (from where car was purchased) will not even look at tires and states that I have to find an independent tire dealer that will deal with kumho, even though tires are original to care from their dealership and hyundai. nhtsa needs to open an investigation into these tires, since other kumho tires have failed in the same way, and numerous complaints are present on these specific tires. kumho will only direct you to a tire dealer, and no tire dealer wants to inspect the tires that they did not sell (again oem for the car). *tr

I was driving back home and approaching a stop when my srs airbag light came on, indicating malfunction of airbag. No airbags were deployed, but light would not go away. Brought it into authorized hyundai service center, and they stated right front seat track sensors have failed. The cost for replacing this part IS extremely expensive, and driving with this light on I think would be a safety hazard if I got into a car accident. I have seen other reports and complaints of other owners having similar problem. Can you please investigate. Thank you. *tr

I turned the car on again to put it in park, I had to fight with it and the engine was just screaming. I got it in park and shut it off again. It was very scarey to have no contol of the speed.

Hyundai is conducting a safety recall to reinforce the attachment of the metal support bracket to the headliner assembly in approximately 35,000 model year (MY) 2010-2012 Hyundai Elantra Touring vehicles built from December 15, 2009 through May 7, 2012 (see NHTSA recall 14V-310 for more information).These Elantra…
Hyundai is conducting a safety recall to reinforce the attachment of the metal support bracket to the headliner assembly in approximately 35,000 model year (MY) 2010-2012 Hyundai Elantra Touring vehicles built from December 15, 2009 through May 7, 2012 (see NHTSA recall 14V-310 for more information).These Elantra Touring vehicles have a common headliner bracket design while the earlier MY 2009-2010 Elantra Touring vehicles have a headliner bracket design that utilizes a shorter length bracket which, should it become separated from the headliner, is unlikely to be displaced into the path of the driver or any occupant.During this investigation, ODI identified a MY 2010 subject vehicle in a salvage yard with a deployed driver-side curtain air bag that showed the headliner bracket displaced downward into the driver's window area.Also, during a static side curtain air bag deployment test conducted by Hyundai, the headliner bracket almost completely separated from the headliner.The headliner tested came out of a MY 2010 subject vehicle.Finally, ODI identified two warranty claims on the subject vehicles that indicate potential headliner bracket issues.Warranty records for these claims indicate vehicle owners complaining of noise or rattling coming from the headliner area and Hyundai dealer technicians reported finding brackets that came loose or unglued from the headliner.ODI is not aware of any related injury allegations.This investigation was opened to evaluate the scope of NHTSA Recall (13V115) influenced by an earlier ODI investigation (EA12-008).EA12-008 involved the same defect issue on MY 2011-2013 Elantra models, and a similar remedy approach was utilized in the 13V115 recall action.Based on the recall action taken by Hyundai, this investigation is closed.
