Hyundai Motor America (Hyundai) is recalling certain 2007-2010 Elantra and 2009-2011 Elantra Touring vehicles. On February 21, 2020 Hyundai expanded the recall to include 46,425 model year 2007-2008 Entourage and 2007 Santa Fe vehicles. Moisture may enter the Anti-lock Brake (ABS) Module and result in an electrical short.
An electrical short within the ABS Module may cause an engine compartment fire, even when the car is turned off, increasing the risk of an injury.
Hyundai will notify owners, and dealers will install a relay in the vehicle's main junction box to prevent the risk of an ABS short-circuit while the car is turned off, free of charge. The recall began April 2, 2020. Owners may contact Hyundai customer service at 1-855-371-9460. Hyundai's number for this recall is 188.

Steering, electric power assist systemFeb 23, 2015
Hyundai Motor America (Hyundai) is recalling certain model year 2008-2010 Elantra vehicles manufactured June 1, 2008, to April 30, 2010, and 2009-2010 Elantra Touring vehicles manufactured November 1, 2008, to April 30, 2010. The electronic power steering (EPS) electronic control unit (ECU) may sense a discrepancy in the steering input signals and, as a result, disable the steering power assist.
If power steering assist is lost, greater driver effort would be required to steer the vehicle at low speeds, increasing the risk of a crash.
Hyundai will verify the proper operation of the Electronic Power Steering (EPS) and update the EPS control unit, free of charge. The recall began April 14, 2015. Owners may contact Hyundai customer service at 1-855-671-3059. Hyundai's number for this recall is 127.

Exterior lighting, brake lights, switchApr 1, 2013
Hyundai Motor Company (Hyundai) is recalling certain model year 2006-2009 Accent, model year 2007-2011 Azera, Sonata and Sante Fe,2006-2011 Tucson, 2009-2011 Elantra Touring, 2007-2010 Elantra, 2008-2011 Veracruz, 2009-2011 Genesis, 2010-2011 Genesis Coupe, 2007-2008 Entourage, and 2006-2008 Tiburon vehicles. Originally, in April 2013, Hyundai recalled 1,059,824 model year 2007-2009 Accent and Tucson, model year 2007-2010 Elantra, model year 2007-2011 Santa Fe, model year 2008-2009 Veracruz, model year 2010-2011 Genesis Coupe, and model year 2011 Sonata vehicles. In September 2013, Hyundai informed the agency that it was adding more vehicles to this campaign, representing an additional 652,512 units. The total number of vehicles being recalled is now 1,712,336. In the affected vehicles, the stop lamp switch may malfunction. A malfunctioning stop lamp switch may cause the brake lights to not illuminate when the brake pedal is depressed or may cause an inability to deactivate the cruise control by depressing the brake pedal. Additionally, a malfunctioning stop lamp switch may also result in intermittent operation of the push-button start feature, affect the operation of the brake transmission shift interlock feature, preventing the shifter from being moved out of the PARK position and cause the Electronic Stability Control (ESC) malfunction light to illuminate.
Failure to illuminate the stop lamps during braking or inability to disengage the cruise control could increase the risk of a crash. Additionally, when the ignition is in the 'ON' position, the transmission shifter may be able to be moved out of Park without first applying the brake. This may lead to unintentional movement of the car which may increase the risk of a crash.
Hyundai will notify owners, and dealers will replace the stop lamp switch, free of charge. The safety recall began on April 22, 2013. Owners may contact Hyundai at 1-800-633-5151. Hyundai's recall campaign number is 110.

FOR SEVERAL MONTHS NOW MY CAR FEELS AS IF IT IS SLIPPING INTO NEUTRAL WHEN I TRY TO SPEED UP ON THE HIGHWAY. WHEN I AM DOING CITY DRIVING I CAN FEEL A JERKING MOTION WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOP POSITION OR SLOW MOVEMENT. MY CAR ONLY HAS ABOUT 45,000 MILES ON IT. TRYING TO GET ON THE HIGHWAY CAN BECOME VERY NAIL BITING WHEN YOU TRY TO SPEED UP AND YOUR CAR SLIPS INTO NEUTRAL. I FIND THAT I HAVE TO PUT THE GAS PEDAL TO THE FLOOR, AND GET THE RPMS TO 5, IN ORDER TO GET IT INTO GEAR. I'M SEEING FAR TOO MANY COMPLAINTS REGARDING THIS AND I'M NOT SURE WHY IT'S NOT BEING RECALLED. ARE THEY WAITING FOR A FATALITY????

MY WIFE OWNS A 2010 HYUNDAI ELANTRA AND THE COMPLAINT I'VE GOT IS ABOUT THE LUG NUTS. I HAD TO REPLACE THE REAR BRAKE PADS, BRAKE SHOES AND ROTORS. THE FIRST PROBLEM I RAN INTO ON THIS PROJECT WAS THAT THE LUG NUTS WERE SO RUSTED THAT THE LUG WRENCH SUPPLIED WITH THE CAR WOULDN'T FIT OVER THEM - THE CHROME PLATING ON THE NUTS HAD DETERIORATED ALLOWING RUST TO BUILT UP UNDERNEATH THE PLATING SO THAT THE WRENCH WOULDN'T FIT. (I THOUGHT OF THOSE INDIVIDUALS WHO HAD TO CHANGE FLAT TIRES ON THE ROAD AND WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO GET THE FLAT TIRES OFF.) I CALLED THE DEALER TO SEE IF NEW LUG NUTS WERE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY BUT THEY SAID NO, THAT THEY'D GIVE ME A 'DEAL' OF $10/NUT - AROUND $200 TO REPLACE ALL THEM ON THE CAR! I STILL HAVE THE RUSTED LUG NUTS ON THE CAR BUT CARRY AN ADDITIONAL WRENCH THAT WILL FIT OVER THEM. I DID MANAGE TO REPLACE ALL THE PARTS, INCLUDING RUSTED AND WARPED ROTORS MENTIONED IN SOME OF THE OTHER COMPLAINTS I'VE SEEN BUT CAUTION ANYONE WHO PLANS TO TACKLE THIS JOB TO BE PREPARED FOR A GRUELING JOB.

ON JULY 15TH I ATTEMPTED TO START MY CAR AND THE ESC LIGHT AND THE ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING LIGHT BOTH CAME ON. I WAS NOT ABLE TO STEER THE CAR. I CALLED MY MECHANIC AND THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO THE SHOP. IT WAS FOUND THAT THE COMPUTER CODE FOR THE EPS WAS NOT IN THE SYSTEM. THE CAR HAD NOT BEEN DRIVE FOR ABOUT A WEEK. THE MECHANIC WAS ABLE TO REPROGRAM THE SYSTEM. THE FOLLOWING DAY I AGAIN ATTEMPTED TO DRIVE THE CAR AND THE SAME LIGHTS (ESC AND EPS) CAME ON. I WAS INFORMED THAT THE POWER STEERING COLUMN HAD TO BE REPLACED. I SEE NO REASON THE POWER STEERING SHOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED ON A CAR THAT IN 5 YEARS OLD AND HAS BEEN PROPERLY MAINTAINED.

THE BRAKE BOOSTER VACUUM CHECK VALVE SUDDENLY FAILED WHILE DRIVING RESULTING IN VASTLY REDUCED BRAKING POWER AND NEAR INABILITY TO STOP THE VEHICLE. I WAS LUCKY TO HAVE BEEN ABLE TO LET THE CAR SLOW NATURALLY AND TURN ONTO A SIDE ROAD. IF I HAD BEEN APPROACHING AN INTERSECTION I COULD HAVE EASILY BEEN INJURED OR KILLED. WHEN INSPECTED THE VACUUM LINE WAS COMPLETELY DISCONNECTED FROM THE VALVE RESULTING IN NO POWER FROM THE BRAKE BOOSTER. THIS PART OF THE VEHICLE HAD NEVER BEEN SERVICED.

THE HYUNDAI ELANTRA HAD ITS STEERING LOCK UP WHILE DRIVING AT A LOW RATE OF SPEED AS IT WAS ON AN APPROACH RAMP PREPARING TO MERGE ON TO WI STATE HIGHWAY 441 IN THE TOWN OF MENASHA, WI. THIS CAUSED THE CAR TO GO INTO THE GUARDRAIL SINCE THE STEERING WOULD NOT RESPOND. THE ACCIDENT OCCURRED AT NOON ON A CLEAR DAY ON DRY PAVEMENT. WITNESSES TO THE ACCIDENT INDICATED THAT THE STEERING DID NOT RESPOND BEFORE THE VEHICLE CRASHED INTO THE GUARDRAIL. LUCKILY THERE WERE NO INJURIES TO THE DRIVER OTHER THAN MINOR BRUISES. NO OTHER CAR WAS INVOLVED IN THE ACCIDENT.WE FILED A COMPLAINT WITH HYUNDAI AFTER THE INCIDENT BUT THEY DID NOT COME OUT TO EXAMINE THE CAR UNTIL AFTER IT HAD BEEN REPAIRED. EARLIER THIS YEAR WE RECEIVED A NOTICE THAT THIS SAME STEERING DEFECT WAS COVERED BY THE RECALL ANNOUNCEMENT. THE CAR WAS REPAIRED AS PART OF THIS RECALL. HYUNDAI HAS CONTINUED TO DENY ANY FLAW THAT COULD HAVE CAUSED THIS ACCIDENT.
Steering, May 7, 2015
I NOTICED WHEN TUNING THE STEERING WHEEL, THAT IT FELT LIKE THERE WAS A BALL ROLLING BACK AND FORTH IN THE STEERING COLUMN AND IT MADE A STRANGE SOFT "THUD". I CALLED THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD IT WAS PROBABLY THE STEERING COLUMN COUPLER GOING BAD. I TOOK IT TO MY MECHANIC WHO AGREED WITH THE DIAGNOSIS AND HE ALSO PRINTED OUT A TECHNICAL SAFETY BULLETIN STATING THAT THE COUPLER IS DEFECTIVE AND WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED IF A "THUD" OR "CLICKING NOISE" APPEARED. I WAS TOLD THIS WAS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE BUT AT THE SAME TIME I RECEIVED A RECALL LETTER REGARDING THE ELECTRONIC STEERING SOFTWARE. THE RECALL STATES THAT THE COMPUTER COULD GET CONFUSED AND STOP THE POWER STEERING WHICH WOULD RESULT IN THE MANUAL STEERING OF THE VEHICLE. SINCE I WAS OUT OF THE 50K MILE WARRANTY THEY WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO REPAIR THE STEERING COUPLER UNDER WARRANTY. IT WILL COST ME $260 TO GET THAT REPAIRED. THE STEERING SOFTWARE IS BACK ORDERED AND I WON'T BE ABLE TO GET THAT FIXED UNTIL AFTER MAY 22ND. I FEEL THAT THE STEERING COUPLER ISSUE IS DANGEROUS IN THAT I MAY NOT BE ABLE TO STEER THE VEHICLE ONCE IT FINALLY GOES BAD. I WANT TO KNOW IF THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. *TR

THIS WAS A FRONT DOOR HANDLE. ON APRIL 20, 2015 (THE CAR HAS LESS THAN 45,000 MILES ON IT) MY DAUGHTER WENT TO REMOVE HER CHILD FROM THE REAR CAR SEAT. THE DOOR WAS NOT LOCKED AND THE REAR DOOR HANDLE PULLED OFF IN HER HAND. I HAVE BEEN WATCHING THE NEWS WERE SOMEONE IS PULLING A PASSENGER OUT OF A BURNING CAR AFTER AN ACCIDENT OFTEN. IF THE DOOR HANDLE WOULD HAVE PULLED OFF DURING THESE INCIDENTS, THE DRIVER OR PASSENGERS WOULD HAVE BEEN BURNT ALIVE. *TR

I NEEDED A CO-SIGNER. A FRIEND OF MINE SAID HE WOULD CO-SIGN. WE SIGNED. THE FIRST MALFUNCTION WAS THE CRUISE CONTROL. I WAS IN THE NUMBER ONE LANE THE TRAFFIC BEGAN TO SLOW. SO I TAPPED THE BRAKE, AGAIN AND AGAIN, IT WOULD NOT SHUT OFF. EVEN THOUGH I WAS APPLYING THE BRAKES. I WAS TERRIFIED AND TREMBLING. THE SECOND INCIDENT WAS WHEN, I WAS PULLING INTO A PARKING PLACE, WITH MY FOOT ON THE BREAK.
