Hyundai Motor America (Hyundai) is recalling certain 2011-2015 Elantra, Genesis Coupe, Sonata Hybrid, 2012-2015 Accent, Azera, Veloster, 2013-2015 Elantra Coupe, Santa Fe, 2014-2015 Equus, 2010-2012 Veracruz, 2010-2013 Tucson, 2015 Tucson Fuel Cell, and 2013 Santa Fe Sport vehicles. The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) module may leak brake fluid internally and cause an electrical short, which can result in an engine compartment fire while parked or driving.
An engine compartment fire while parked or driving can increase the risk of injury.
Owners are advised to park outside and away from structures until the recall repair is complete. Dealers will replace the ABS fuse, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed April 10, 2024 through October 11, 2024. Owners may contact Hyundai customer service at 1-855-371-9460. Hyundai's number for this recall is 251.

Service brakes, hydraulic, pedals and linkagesNov 30, 2017
Hyundai Motor Company (Hyundai) is recalling certain 2013-2014 Elantra sedan, coupe and GT vehicles. The brake pedal stopper pad can deteriorate allowing the brake light switch plunger to remain extended when the brake pedal is released. This will allow the brake lights to remain illuminated continuously. It can also allow the shift lever to be moved without depressing the brake pedal, or activate the engine management brake pedal override feature.
If the brake light switch plunger does not retract as it should when the brake pedal is not being pressed, the brake lights may stay illuminated preventing accurate communication to following vehicles that the vehicle is slowing or stopping. Additionally, if the brake switch plunger is not retracted, then the transmission can be shifted out of PARK without depressing the brake pedal. Either condition increases the risk of a crash.
Hyundai will notify owners, and dealers will replace the brake pedal stopper pad, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin February 8, 2018. Owners may contact Hyundai customer service at 1-800-633-5151. Hyundai's number for this recall is 170. This campaign expands recall 16V574.

Hyundai Motor America (Hyundai) is recalling certain model 2013 Elantra vehicles manufactured December 1, 2012, to April 30, 2013. The brake pedal stopper pad can deteriorate allowing the brake light switch plunger to remain extended when the brake pedal is released.
If the brake light switch plunger does not retract as it should when the brake pedal is not being pressed, the brake lights may stay illuminated preventing accurate communication to following vehicles that the vehicle is slowing or stopping. Additionally, if the brake switch plunger is not retracted, then the transmission can be shifted out of PARK without depressing the brake pedal. Either condition increases the risk of a crash.
Hyundai will notify owners, and dealers will replace the brake pedal stopper pad with an improved part, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin on September 30, 2016. Owners may contact Hyundai customer service at 1-855-371-9460. Hyundai's number for this recall is 146.

SIDE BRAKE LIGHTS WENT OUT AND OVERHEATED MELTING AND CRACKING THE LENS. THIS IS A DEFECT THAT COSTS 560.00. DOESN'T MAKE SENSE THAT A VEHICLE WITH THIS TYPE OF LIGHT DOESN'T HAVE A SAFETY MECHANISM TO WARN THE DRIVER. NEEDS TO BE RECALLED.

REAR SUSPENSION IS UNSETTLING. FIRST OFF, THE CAR DESTROYS TIRES IN A RELATIVELY SHORT TIME. SECOND, OVER BUMPY TERRAIN THE CAR'S REAR SHAKES BACK AND FORTH LIKE IT'S TRYING TO STEER ITSELF. THIRD, WHEN IT'S ICY OR SLIPPERY AND THE ROAD SURFACE ISN'T SMOOTH THE REAR OF THE CAR TRIES TO SWING OUT WHEN ONE SIDE HAS GRIP AND THE OTHER DOESN'T.

WHILE DRIVING UP OVER A MOUNTAIN PASS THE AIRBAG DEPLOYED WARNING LIGHTS WERE LIT AND THE LOW TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT LIT. I STOPPED AND CHECKED THE TIRES. THE RIGHT REAR TIRE HAD A HOLE IN THE SIDEWALL. THERE WAS NO IMPACT WITH ANY VEHICLE OR HILLSIDE. THIS ROAD HAS QUITE A FEW TURNS AND IS A NARROW TWO LANE MOUNTAIN PASS. ( GATES PASS, TUCSON ARIZONA. *TR

THE CAR ACCELERATES WITHOUT MY INTENTION. I CAN BE DRIVING MY CAR AND THE (STREET OR HWY IN MOTION) WHILE DRIVING THE CAR/ENGINE ACCELERATES. I WAS IN DISBELIEF BUT AFTER IT HAPPENED SO MANY TIMES, REMOVING MY FOOT FROM THE PEDAL AND STILL HEARING THE ACCELERATION, IT FREAKS ME OUT. SCARES ME TO DEATH.

I AM REPLACING BRAKE LIGHT BULBS A LITTLE TO OFTEN I BELIEVE. AND WHEN I CONTACT HYUNDAI THEY SAID THEIRS NO RECALLS SO MAYBE ITS ELECTRICAL ISSUE THAT THEY HAVEN'T DISCOVERED YET. WELL OBVIOUSLY BECAUSE IT WOULDN'T BE HAPPENING TO MY CAR SO OFTEN. BUT AFTER REPLACING THE BRAKE LIGHT BULBS MAYBE GOING ON 6 TIMES NOW MY FIRST HEADLIGHT SOCKET BURNT OUT I WENT TO AUTO ZONE AND BOUGHT A REPLACEMENT ONE. I AM CURIOUS AM I THE ONLY ONE HAVING THESE PROBLEMS ??? *TR
Service brakes, Engine, Dec 26, 2016
ABOUT 4 TIMES PER YEAR, THE VEHICLE WILL NOT SHIFT OUT OF PARK. I MUST USE THE SHIFT RELEASE BUTTON AND THIS TAKES AWHILE TO WORK. I HAVE HAD THIS HAPPEN WHEN THE CAR IS IDLING IN A PARKING LOT, PARKED AT A DRIVE-THRU, TRYING TO LEAVE A PARKING LOT. THIS HAS HAPPENED ABOUT 12 TIMES SINCE I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE. I TOOK IT TO A HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP AND THEY COULD NOT REPLICATE THE ISSUE. THE FIRST OCCASION WAS AROUND 1,000 MILES ON THE ODOMETER.
Service brakes, Dec 19, 2016
WHEN DRIVING IN RAIN FOR AWHILE, THEN GENTLY COME TO STOP, GET A BRAKE NOISE THAT SHOULDN'T BE THERE AND WHOLE CAR VIBRATES. NOT GOING THROUGH PUDDLES OR STANDING WATER. THIS HAS HAPPEN SEVERAL TIMES. I DISCUSSED IT WITH THE SERVICE MANAGER AT OUR DEALERSHIP, AND HE ACKNOWLEDGED THE ISSUE, AND THAT HYUNDAI DID AS WELL, BUT SAID THERE IS NO SOLUTION CURRENTLY. THE STOPPING POWER IS NOT GOOD WHEN THIS HAPPENS. AFTER IT DRIES, THEN THE BRAKES FUNCTION NORMAL. DEALERSHIP SAID NEW PADS AND ROTOR MIGHT HELP, BUT WASN'T A WARRANTY ISSUE. THERE IS A PROBLEM AND IT SHOULD BE FIXED! THIS COULD BE A PROBLEM THAT GETS SOMEONE KILLED. ALSO, I FIND THAT OTHER HYUNDAI OWNERS HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME BRAKE PROBLEM. *TR
Electrical system, Engine, Dec 15, 2016
INTERMITTENTLY WILL NOT TURN OVER. BATTERY IS FINE. INHIBITOR SWITCH WAS CHANGED, ALL RECALLS PERFORMED. HAD THE CAR TO THE DEALER 3 TIMES AND THEY CANNOT REPLICATE. HAD IT TOWED THERE LAST TIME. IF YOU FIDDLE WITH THE SHIFTER, AND KEY LONG ENOUGH (10 MINUTES OR SO, IT WILL EVENTUALLY TURN OVER AND START AS NORMAL. THERE HAS BEEN NO HELP ON THIS, AND THE DEALER KEEPS CHARGING FOR DIAGNOSTICS, EVEN THOUGHT THE VEHICLE IS UNDER WARRANTY. THE PROBLEM SEEMS TO BE EXTREMELY MORE PREVALENT IN THE WINTER OR WHEN THE TEMP IS BELOW 35 DEGREES F.
Steering, Dec 13, 2016
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HYUNDAI ELANTRA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT A PART FRACTURED WITHIN THE RACK AND PINION WHICH CAUSED THE STEERING WHEEL NOT TO FUNCTION WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION. THE CONTACT WAS UNABLE TO STEER LEFT AND RIGHT DUE TO THE FAILURE. THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THAT THE RACK AND PINION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V100000 (STEERING). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 83,000.

REAR SIGNAL AND TAIL LIGHTS FREQUENTLY BECOME LOOSE IN LAMP SOCKETS AND FAIL TO PROPERLY FUNCTION. LIGHT FIXTURES MUST BE ACCESSED TO RESET THE LAMP, BULB. VEHICLE ONLY HAS ABOUT 57,000 MILES AND THIS HAS BEEN OCCURRING FROM AROUND 34,000 MILES. 3 EACH TAIL LIGHT AND 1 LICENSE PLATE LIGHT HAVE ALSO BURNED OUT AND WERE REPLACED. SAME PROBLEM CONTINUES WITH BULBS LOOSENING UP AT FREQUENT INTERVALS. OCCURS AT ANY PERIOD, STOPPED OR IN MOTION.
Exterior lighting, Nov 24, 2016
EXTERIOR LIGHTING - PARKING LIGHTS TURNING ON WHILE CAR IS TURNED OFF AND PARKED. USUALLY HAPPENS OVERNIGHT WHEN THE TEMPERATURE DROPS CLOSE TO OR BELOW FREEZING. ALSO HEADLIGHTS TURNING OFF ON THEIR OWN WHILE CAR IS RUNNING AND TURN SIGNALS ARE USED. HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP LOOKED AT CAR THREE TIMES AND COULD NOT REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM, AND THE ONLY PARTS THEY REPLACED WERE A SWITCH INHIBITOR (PART 42700-26500) AND A NEW CAR BATTERY. NONE OF THIS CORRECTED THE ISSUE AND THEY DON'T HAVE A SOLUTION FOR US OTHER THAN TO COMPLAIN TO HYUNDAI. THIS LEAVES US WITH A CAR THAT IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT AND WITH A CONSTANT DEAD CAR BATTERY. THE HYUNDAI CUSTOMER SERVICE CASE NUMBER WE HAVE IS 9687427, AND SO FAR THEY HAVE NO SOLUTION FOR US AND HAVE NOT CONTACTED US BACK FOR WEEKS NOW.
Suspension, Nov 21, 2016
FROM DAY ONE THE SUSPENSION ALWAYS SEEMED MUSHY OR SOFT. WHEN DRIVING OVER UNEVEN PAVEMENT, THE CAR SEEMS TO EXPERIENCE LATERAL GLIDING OR SWAYING. AT HIGHWAY SPEED IT CAN FEEL LIKE YOU'RE GOING TO SHIFT INTO THE ADJACENT LANE.
Other or unspecified, Nov 20, 2016
THE PANORAMIC ROOF SPONTANEOUSLY EXPLODED WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEED. ON I-495, THE BELTWAY AROUND DC, THE ROOF SHATTERED WHILE DRIVING AT ~65 MPH. IT SOUNDED LIKE A STARTLING SHOTGUN BLAST FOLLOWED BY FALLING GLASS AND LOUD WIND NOISE. THE ONLY BARRIER BETWEEN ME, THE DRIVER, AND LARGE SHARDS OF BROKEN GLASS WAS THE INNER ROOF SHIELD, WHICH WAS FORTUITOUSLY CLOSED, OTHERWISE THE SHATTERED GLASS UNEXPECTEDLY FALLING ON MY HEAD/CUTTING ME WHILE DRIVING WOULD LIKELY LEAD TO MY FACE, HEAD AND ARMS BEING CUT, A HIGHWAY COLLISION OR WORSE, A MULTI-CAR COLLISION.
Steering, Suspension, Nov 11, 2016
MY CAR DRIVES FUNNY OVER THE ROAD AND ON HILL AND STEERING REALLY FEELS BAD LIKE SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE CAR THIS IS DRIVING IN MY TOWN. I JUST BROUGHT THE CAR FOM THE DEALER WHAT CAN I DO?
Tires, Nov 9, 2016
THE TIRE PRESSURE WAS LOW SO I TOOK THE CAR TO MY TIRE DEALER ONLY TO DISCOVER THAT ALL OEM NEXEN TIRES HAD CRACKS BETWEEN THE TREADS BOTH HORIZONTALLY AND VERTICALLY. EACH TIRE HAS A DIFFERENT DOT CODE SO I HAVE ONLY SUBMITTED ONE COMPLAINT. THE CAR HAS 8940 MILES ON IT AND IS A 2013 HYUNDAI ELANTRA GT. I CALLED NEXEN WARRANTY DEPARTMENT AND NO ONE ANSWERED SO I LEFT A MESSAGE. I ALSO, WROTE THEM AND EMAIL AND AM WAITING FOR A RESPONSE.

AROUND 40,000 MILES THE CAR RANDOMLY WOULD NOT START, LEAVING ME STRANDED. I TOOK THE CAR IN SEVERAL TIMES AND DEALERSHIP COULD NOT DETECT AN ISSUE. 2ND TIME I DROPPED OFF, A MISFIRE WAS DETECTED AND IGNITION COILS WHERE REPLACED DUE TO DEFECTED COILS. I PICKED UP MY CAR AND 11 DAYS LATER THE CAR WOULDN'T START UP AGAIN. ITS BEEN IN THE SHOP FOR 3 WEEKS NOW. LAST I HEARD THEY ARE REPLACING: THE SHIFTER ASSEMBLY, TRANSMISSION RANGE SWITCH, AND BRAKE SWITCH. I HAVE YET TO HEAR IF THE PARTS CAME IN AND IF THIS WILL FIX THE ISSUE. I RECEIVED A CALL ON 11/3/2016 AND NOW THE ENGINE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THERE IS A SERIOUS ISSUE WITH THE CAR FAILING TO START AND HYUNDAI CANT EVEN FIGURE IT OUT, AS OF TODAY THEY HAD MY CAR FOR A TOTAL OF 25 DAYS AND STILL NO RESOLUTION. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE AND RECALLED. IVE CONTACTED HYUNDAI CONSUMER AFFAIRS DIRECTLY AND HAVE A CASE WITH THEM GOING ON. I SEE SEVERAL COMPLAINTS OF THIS SAME ISSUE HAPPENING ON THIS MODEL, I HOP THIS WILL SOMEWHAT HELP. BE CONSISTENT AND DON'T TAKE NO FOR ANSWER, I AM STILL MAKING CAR PAYMENTS ON SOMETHING THAT IS NOT WORKING NOR I HAVE IS UNFAIR. SINCE THE CAR IS LESS THAN 60,000 MILES THIS WILL BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY, IT SHOULD OF HAD TO TAKE ME 3 TIMES, CALLING A MANGER AND GOING TO CONSUMER AFFAIRS FOR THEM TO FINALLY TAKE MY ISSUE SERIOUS.
Electrical system, Nov 2, 2016
PUSH BUTTON START. CAR WILL NOT START RIGHT AWAY AFTER DEPRESSING THE START BUTTON. WHEN START BUTTON IS DEPRESSED, INDICATING LIGHTS ON THE DASH WILL ILLUMINATE, AND APPROXIMATELY 10 SECOND LATER, THE RADIO AND THE AIR CONDITIONING WILL KICK IN. AT THIS POINT I HAVE APPROXIMATELY 10 SECONDS TO ATTEMPT TO START THE CAR AND 75% OF THE TIME THE CAR WILL START; OTHERWISE, I HAVE TO TURN THE CAR OFF AND ATTEMPT TO RESTART AGAIN. THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR APPROXIMATELY TWO MONTHS NOW. TOOK IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY STATED THEY COULD NOT RECREATE THE PROBLEM AS THE CAR STARTED FOR THEM EVERY TIME APPARENTLY AND COULD NOT DO ANYTHING TO SOLVE MY ISSUE, EVEN THOUGH THEY ADMITTEDLY TIGHTENED UP TERMINALS FOR THE BATTERY. THE CAR SEEMED TO START EVERY SINGLE TIME FOR ABOUT A WEEK AFTER THE VISIT, AND NOW IT'S DOING IT AGAIN. CALLED HYUNDAI AND THEY KNEW NOTHING ABOUT ISSUE. I'VE RESORTED TO TAKING VIDEO TO HELP DESCRIBE THE ISSUE TO TECHNICIANS, AND THE LATEST DEALERSHIP BASICALLY TOLD ME THAT THEY STILL WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO USE MY VIDEO BUT WOULD HAVE TO RECREATE THE PROBLEM THEMSELVES. THIS IS GOING TO BE REALLY BAD IF I'M STUCK IN SOMEWHERE BECAUSE MY CAR WON'T START AND HYUNDAI CLAIMING THEY CANT DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT.

CAR SMOKES HEAVILY LIKE EVERY 10,000 MILES WHEN ACCELERATING FAST AND SUDDENLY, LIKE WHEN GOING ON THE FREEWAY ON RAMP OR TRYING TO OVERPASS ANOTHER VEHICLE. IT BLOWS A HUGE , BIG , WHITE CLOUD OF SMOKE THAT IMPAIRS VISIBILITY OF OTHER DRIVERS. IT IS A HAZARD AGAINST SAFETY AND CONTAMINETS THE ENVIROMENT . OIL LEVEL SEEMS TO BE FINE BETWEEN SERVICES. IT HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE NEW. AT 7000 MILES, 15000 MILES AND TODAY AT 40,000 MILES . THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINS ABOUT THAT.

ENGINE FAILURE. ZERO COMPRESSION CYLINDER #1. SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED SINCE PURCHASE ON 10/18/2016. ALSO, TIRE PRESSURE PROBLEM, ESC LIGHT COMES ON, DASHBOARD GAUGES INOPERATIVE. FUEL MILEAGE BELOW WHAT IS ADVERTISED. NEITHER HUNDAI NOR ENTERPRISE WILL FIX THE PROBLEM AFTER REPEATED DEMANDS. ALSO, THERE IS A RECALL REGARDING "STOPPER PAD" AND STOP LAMP SWITCH. BOUGHT VEHICLE, CASH, FROM ENTERPRISE CAR SALES IN MONTCLAIR, CA. IT WAS A "CERTIFIED" USED CAR, SUPPOSEDLY. IMMEDIATELY I NOTICED THAT THE ENGINE SOUNDED "TINNY". SOUNDED LIKE A SEWING MACHINE, IT WAS KNOCKING. ALSO, WHEN I LIFTED THE OIL STICK, SMOKE CAME OUT OF ENGINE. THIS WAS WITHIN 2 WEEKS AFTER PURCHASE. THE CAR COMPLETELY LOST COMPRESSION ON INTERSTATE 10 IN APRIL, 2015. I TOLD BOTH HYUNDAI AND ENTERPRISE WHO IGNORED MY COMPLAINTS. FINALLY, AFTER SEVERAL COMPLAINTS AND THREATS, ENTERPRISE TOOK THE CAR IN AND SENT IT TO HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP WHO CLAIMED THERE WAS NO PROBLEM. THE CAR BEGAN LOSING POWER AGAIN IN SEPTEMBER, 2016 AND FINALLY STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET IN ARCADIA, CA. NO COMPRESSION. IT HAD TO BE TOWED TO MY HOUSE. I TOOK IT TO PRIVATE SHOP WHO SAID "ZERO COMPRESSION IN CYLINDER #1, POSSIBLE BURNED OUT VALVE '. SEE ATTACHED. CALLED HYINDAI AND ENTERPRISE AGAIN. BOTH DENIED RESPONSIBILITY, AND REFUSED TO DO ANYTHING. I HAVE TO NOW PAY OVER $1,000 TO GET ENGINE REBUILT. THIS CAR IS A LEMON AND I AM ENTTIED TO REFUND OR A NEW CAR.
Air bags, Service brakes, Oct 18, 2016
MY AIRBAG LIGHT WAS OFF AND ON FOR ABOUT A MONTH AND NOW IT IS A STEADY LIGHT. THE REPAIR SHOP I TOOK IT TO SAID I NEEDED A CLOCK SPRING AND A NEW DRIVER AIR BAG. THEY ALSO SAID I MIGHT NEED ANOTHER PART. TOTAL COST OF ALL OF THIS WILL BE AROUND $1600. SINCE MY CAR HAS OVER 100,000 MILES, IT IS NOT UNDER WARRANTY. I'VE NOTICED OTHER PEOPLE ARE COMPLAINING ABOUT THE AIRBAG LIGHT.
