I HAVE HAD NUMEROUS EXPERIENCES WHERE THE VEHICLE WONT START. I WENT TO GET GAS ONE MORNING AND AFTER I PUMPED THE GAS AND GOT IN TO DRIVE OFF MY CAR WOULDN'T START. I WAITED FOR AAA AND WHILE WAITING TRIED TURNING OVER THE KEY AND IT STARTED RIGHT UP. LIKE I SAID THIS HAS HAPPENED ABOUT TEN TO TWELVE OR MORE TIMES. I RECENTLY CHANGED THE BATTERY BUT IT HAPPENED AGAIN SEVERAL TIMES. SOMEONE NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING REGARDING THIS COMPLAINT AS I SEE IT IS SOMETHING THAT HAS BEEN COMPLAINED ABOUT NUMEROUS TIMES.

FRONT LEFT COIL SPRING BROKE AFTER GOING OVER A POTHOLE AT VERY LOW SPEED (ABOUT 15MPH). I'VE RECENTLY LEARNED THAT MANY 2011 ELANTRAS IN SALT BELT STATES/AREAS HAD A RECALL ON FRONT COIL SPRINGS AFTER SIMILAR ISSUES. I'M CONCERNED THAT THE FRONT COIL SPRINGS IN MY YEAR MAKE/MODEL (2012 ELANTRA, ALSO IN A SALT BELT STATE) HAS THE SAME ISSUE AND SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED FOR A RECALL.

VEHICLE WONT START AT TIMES. THIS HAPPENED WHEN I FIRST BOUGHT THE VEHICLE AND HYUNDAI CHANGED THE INHIBITOR SWITCH. RECENTLY STARTED HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM OF IT NOT STARTING. DEALER SHOWED ME WHERE THE RESET IS SO I WAS ABLE TO START IT AND BRING IT TO THE DEALER. AGAIN THEY CHANGED THE INHIBITOR SWITCH. I WAS TOLD THEY CHANGED THE DESIGN OF THE SWITCH AND HOPEFULLY I WON'T HAVE THIS PROBLEM AGAIN. HYUNDAI PAID FOR THE PART BUT I HAD TO PAY FOR LABOR. I'M SURE I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE THAT HAD THIS PROBLEM.

VEHICLE STATIONARY. SHIFTER IN "PARK". ATTEMPTED TO START VEHICLE. TURNED KEY IN IGNITION - CAR DID NOT START. RADIO, LIGHTS, AIR AND ALL OTHER PERIPHERALS STARTED AND FUNCTIONED APPROPRIATELY. TRIED TO "JUMP" VEHICLE USING TWO DIFFERENT JUMPER-CABLE SETS. HAD BATTERY TESTED - OEM BATTERY, 4 YEARS OLD, RATED AT 550 AND FUNCTIONING AT 542 - GOOD BATTERY, NO NEED FOR REPLACEMENT. POPPED OUT THE SHIFT LOCK INSERT. INSERTED FLAT HEAD SCREWDRIVER TO DEPRESS THE BUTTON. PUT CAR IN NEUTRAL. PUT KEY IN IGNITION, TURNED TO START - CAR STARTED AS IF NOTHING WAS WRONG. DROVE FOR ABOUT 30 MINTUTES. STOPPED AT A STORE. ATTEMPTED TO START VEHICLE AS NORMAL - VEHICLE STARTED FINE. PARKED VEHICLE IN DRIVEWAY OVERNIGHT. ATTEMPTED TO START VEHICLE TO GO TO WORK - VEHICLE WOULD NOT START. REPEATED THE SAME PROCESS FROM THE PREVIOUS TIME IT WOULDN'T START AND WAS SUCESSFUL. HAVE A VIDEO SHOWING THE SHIFTER GOING THROUGH ALL GEARS - WHEN PUT INTO "PARK" THE LIGHTS ON THE SHIFTER COMPLETELY GO OUT AND THEN EVENTUALLY FLICKER BACK ON. PLEASE CONTACT ME IF YOU WOULD LIKE THE VIDEO, AS A PICTURE WOULD NOT SHOW THE ISSUE.

AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON ABOUT A WEEK AGO FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES WHILE AT A DRIVE-THRU WINDOW AND WENT OFF. DRIVING DOWN A 45 MPH ROAD THE LIGHT CAME BACK ON AND WENT OFF JUST AS QUICKLY. CALLED THE DEALER THE NEXT DAY AND MADE AN APPOINTMENT. LIGHT CONTINUED TO GO ON AND OFF WHILE DRIVING AROUND TOWN AND EVEN CAME ON WHEN I PUT THE CAR IN PARK. TOOK IT TO DEALER AND THEY COULDN'T "DUPLICATE" THE PROBLEM SO THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IS CAUSING THE LIGHT TO GO ON AND OFF. HAS BEEN DOING IT EVERYDAY SINCE I LEFT THE DEALER. I AM WAITING ON A LOANER FROM THEM SO THEY CAN KEEP THE CAR FOR LONGER THAN A COUPLE OF HOURS. HAVE TO SAY I DON'T FEEL REAL SAFE DRIVING MY CAR WITH THE AIRBAG LIGHT GOING ON AND OFF WHILE I AM DRIVING.

I PURCHASED THIS CAR NEW FROM A HYUNDAI DEALER IN MARCH 2012 PROBLEM 1. SINCE EARLY ON, THE CAR ALWAYS EXHIBITED A SERIOUS INSTABILITY IN THE REAR END. SPECIFICALLY SPEAKING, WHEN DRIVING ON ANY SMALL BUMP FOUND ON ANY NORMAL ROAD, THE CAR REAR SUSPENSION WILL NOT ABSORBE THE BUMP LIKE ANY NORMAL CAR WOULD BUT INSTEAD SEVERELY JUMPS AND THEN 'DARTS OR SHIFTS' LATERALLY. EVEN IN DRY PAVEMENT. HAVING LIVED IN THE NE AND ILLINOIS NOW, I AM A VERY EXPERIENCED DRIVING IN SNOWY CONDITIONS. DRIVING THIS CAR IN EVEN 1/2" OF SNOW IS DOWNRIGHT TERRIFYING. THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO REAR END CONTROL AND TOTAL INSTABILITY NO MATTER HOW CAREFUL YOU DRIVE. I HAVE FOUND MYSELF NOT KNOWING IF I WAS GOING TO MAKE HOME WITHOUT GETTING INTO AN ACCIDENT. THE PAST TWO WINTERS I HAD TO USE OTHER VEHICLE EVEN IF THE WEATHER FORECAST CALL FOR SNOWN FLURRIES. I HAVE NEVER DRIVEN A CAR SO UNSTABLE IN MY 45 YEARS OF DRIVING. BY THE WAY, LOADING UP THE CAR WITH PASSENGERS OR ADDITIONAL WEIGHT HAS ZERO IMPACT REDUCING THE SEVERITY OF THE PROBLEM. PROBLEM 2 THE REAR TIRES WEAR OUT VERY FAST. EVEN THOUGH I ROTATE THEM EVEN 5K MILES, THEY WEAR SO BADLY THAT THEY PRODUCE A LOUD ROAD NOISE FROM UNEVEN WEAR. I AM ON MY THIRD SET OF TIRES AND THESE NEED REPLACEMENT NOW. I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR TO TO HYUNDAI, THEY CHECKED ALIGNMENT AND SAID THERE IS NOTHING WRONG AND THE PROBLEM MUST BE THE TIRES. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH, I LEARNED THESE CARS HAVE A SOLID , NON-ADJUSTABLE REAR END WITH A FIXED TOE-IN AND CAMBER. I AM CERTAIN THAT BOTH PROBLEMS I LISTED ARE CAUSED BY HYUNDAI'S REAR END DESIGN. THIS IS A MAJOR PROBLEM AND HYUNDAI REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE IT. IT IS A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE ACCIDENTS WITH LOSS OF LIFE WILL OCCUR. WHAT AM I SUPPOSE TO DO THIS COMING WINTER? .A NEIGHBOR WITH A 2013 ELANTRA COMPLAINED ABOUT THE SAME INSTABILITY.

INTERMITTENTLY, MY CAR DOES NOT START. I TURN THE KEY AND NOTHING HAPPENS. I TRY IT AGAIN. NOTHING. I TRY IT AGAIN AND IT STARTS. IT HAPPENED WHEN THE CAR WAS SITTING OVERNIGHT IN MY GARAGE. IT HAPPENED AFTER I WAS IN A STORE FOR ABOUT 45 MINUTES. IT HAPPENED AFTER I WAS IN ANOTHER LOCATION FOR 2 HOURS. I BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALER ABOUT A YEAR AGO WHEN IT HAPPENED AND THEY SAID NOTHING WAS WRONG BECAUSE IT DIDN'T DO IT FOR THEM. (OF COURSE, IT DIDN'T!) THEN, AFTER ANOTHER COUPLE OF TIMES OF IT HAPPENING AGAIN, I RESEARCHED AND FOUND IT WAS PROBABLY SOME KIND OF SWITCH. I TOLD THAT TO THE DEALER AND THEY REPLACED SOMETHING WHICH SEEMED TO FIX THE PROBLEM. NOW, ALL OF A SUDDEN, IT'S HAPPENING AGAIN. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS CAR FOR FEAR I WILL BE STRANDED SOMEWHERE UNSAFE ONE DAY.

PROBLEM : ESC LIGHT FLASHES WHILE DRIVING, SOME TIME MAKES RUMBLING NOISE , POWER LOSS, FEEL LIKE CAR IN NEUTRAL, STEERING FELT LOCK, SUDDEN BREAK AND CREATES UNSAFE CONDITION. NOT ALL SYMPTOMS COME UP SAME TIME BUT ONE OF THEM WHILE LIGHT FLASHING. DETAILS : 1. FIRST TIME HAPPENED IN JUNE/JULY 2015 CONTACTED DEALER. SINCE DEALER CANNOT REPLICATE THEY DID TEST DRIVE AND FELT EVERYTHING NORMAL. I DROVE 1 YEAR SCARRED BUT ISSUE DIDN'T OCCURRED 2. FEW WEEKS AGO THIS PROBLEM RESURFACED DEALER REPEATED SAME STORY BUT WANTED TO DRIVE WITH ME WHICH IS PENDING. WHILE NORMAL DRIVING IT HAPPENED AND THIS TIME IT WAS RECORDED ON MY CELLPHONE TO SHOW AS PROOF BECAUSE IN TEST DRIVE IT MAY OR MAY NOT HAPPEN. I FEEL COMPANY AND DEALER NOT WORKING CLOSELY AND SOMEONE CAN CAUSE SERIOUS ISSUE OF SAFETY. I REQUEST TO LOOK INTO THIS REACHING OUT TO COMPANY AND ADDRESS THIS ISSUE. I CANNOT UPLOAD VIDEO LET ME KNOW IF YOU NEED. JUST LOADING A PICTURE.
