2013 Hyundai Elantra complaints

THE PARKING LIGHT COME ON RANDOMLY. EVEN WHEN THE SWITCH IT TURNED TO THE OFF POSITION. THIS CAUSES THE BATTERY TO RUN DOWN. THE ONLY WAY TO SHUT THEM OFF IS TO DISCONNECT THE BATTERY CABLE. WHEN 1ST NOTICED THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN DRIVEN FOR THREE DAYS. IT HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES SINCE I FIRST NOTICED IT. SEVERAL OTHER HYUNDAI OWNERS HAVE REPORTED THE SAME PROBLEM. MOSTLY WITH PARKING LIGHTS , BUT A FEW SAID IT WAS THEIR BRAKE LIGHTS. *TR

THE KEY FOB IS NOT DETECTED (INTERMITTENTLY). WHEN THIS HAPPENS, I AM LEFT STRANDED. MY CAR WILL NOT START. I HAVE CHANGED THE BATTERY IN THE FOB WHEN THIS OCCURS AND I HAVE TRIED TO USE MY SECOND KEY FOB. THE PROBLEM STILL IS NOT AIDED. I HAVE ATTEMPTED TO PUT THE FOB UP TO THE START BUTTON, AS SOME VIDEOS SUGGEST. THE PROBLEM STILL CONTINUES. UPON LOOKING AT FORUMS AND OTHER PLACES ON THE WEB WHERE HYUNDAI CUSTOMERS COMMUNICATE, IT IS OBVIOUS THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM AMONG HYUNDAI CUSTOMERS. DURING THIS TIME, THE CAR WAS STATIONARY. THIS IS A RECURRING ISSUE. I EVEN GOT THE BRAKE SENSOR REPLACED. THE PROBLEM CONTINUES. *TR

THE STEERING KNUCKLE (COUPLER) IS BAD. *TR

I GOT MY CAR BRAKE RELEASE LIGHT FIXED BECAUSE IT WAS RECALLED IN 2018 2 YRS LATER SAME ISSUE BRAKE LIGHT IS STILL ON EVEN WHEN THE CAR IS OFF

MOONROOF EXPLODED WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY ABOUT 60-65 MPH. *TR

CAR HAS BEEN IN SHOP 3 TIMES FOR SAME ISSUE. CAR PULLS DANGEROUSLY TO THE LEFT. I'VE NOTICED MANY COMPLAINTS ONLINE FOR THIS EXACT PROBLEM BUT NOT RECALL OR FIX AVAILABLE. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS DUE TO THE FACT YOU HAVE TO OVER COMPENSATE STEERING. THIS WILL HAPPEN ON ANY ROAD OR HIGHWAY. EVEN WORSE IF ROADS ARE BAD, THE WILL OVER COMPENSATE ITSELF. SCARY TO DRIVE. *TR

I HAVE OWNED MY 2013 HYUNDAI ELANTRA SINCE MARCH 2019. AND I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE SIGNAL LIGHT 2 TIMES. AND BRAKE LIGHTS 2 TIMES. IS THIS A NORMAL THING WITH THESE VEHICLES. *TR

I NOTICED MY 2013 HYUNDAI ELANTRA WAS MAKING A SOUND FROM THE DRIVER SIDE( IN 2018 )WHEEL WHEN I TURN AND ALSO THE CAR SWAYS WHEN DRIVING AT SLOW SPEED. I REPORTED IT TO THE HYUNDAI OF LAS VEGAS DEALERSHIP WHERE I BOUGHT MY HYUNDAI FROM ON 6/2017 BUT THEY SAID I HAD NO EXTENDED WARRANTY. I THEN RECEIVED A "RECALL NOTICE" FOR THE 2013 HYUNDAI ELANTRA (1/29/2018) AND TOOK IT BACK TO HYUNDAI OF LAS VEGAS WHO FIXED A BRAKE PEDAL DEFECT FREE OF CHARGE. I KNOW THERE ARE 29 HYUNDAI CONSUMER COMPLAINTS REPORTED TO THE NHTSA ABOUT THE "SWAYING MOTION" ON HYUNDAIS THAT IS A SAFETY ISSUE RELATED TO THE SUSPENSION WHICH SHOULD BE ON THE RECALL PRIORITY LIST TO IN MY OPINION SINCE I AM MAKING MONTHLY PAYMENTS FOR MY USED HYUNDAI. IT WILL COST THE PRICE OF A NEW CAR AFTER I AM DONE PAYING OFF THE ENTIRE CAR LOAN I OWE. *TR

THE INSIDE DOOR PANELS ARE VERY STICKY. NOTHING TAKES THE STICKY AWAY. OUTSIDE DOOR HANDLES ARE FADING AND CHIPPING ON DOOR HANDLES ONLY. *TR

THERE IS AN EXISTING SAFETY ISSUE WITH HYUNDAI ELECTRIC STEERING. THE RUBBER STEERING COUPLING IS DEFECTIVE AND THEY HAVE ISSUED AN EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR 2013 HYUNDAI ELANTRA SEDANS BUT NOT THE GT MODELS. HOWEVER, THEY BOTH USE THE SAME ELECTRIC MOTOR. MY CAR EXHIBITS THE "CLUNKING NOISE" WHICH IS A SYMPTOM OF THE WORN PART. MY HYUNDAI DEALER CHECKED IT AND IMMEDIATELY SAID THAT IT WAS INDEED THE PROBLEM BUT UPON CHECKING MY VIN NUMBER MY GT MODEL ELANTRA IS NOT COVERED. I THINK HYUNDAI HAS JUST OVERLOOKED THIS BUT EVEN THOUGH I HAVE AN OPEN CASE WITH THEM THEY KEEP BEATING AROUND THE BUSH ABOUT IT. I TRIED EXPLAINING TO THEM THAT THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE BUT IT DIDN'T SEEM TO HELP. WHEN YOU MOVE THE STEERING WHEEL BACK AND FORTH YOU HEAR THIS CLUNKING NOISE WHICH IS INDICATIVE OF THE WORN RUBBER BUSHING. ATTACHED IN THE NEXT PARAGRAPH IS THE VERBIAGE FROM THE HYUNDAI WEBSITE REGARDING THIS ISSUE. I REALLY NEED TO GET THEM TO COVER MY CAR. IT IS A $300 PLUS REPAIR. BULLETIN NUMBER: 5NP-F8M5G-03 BULLETIN DATE: 02-27-2017 COMPONENT: 353000 EQUIPMENT:ELECTRICAL SUMMARY: HYUNDAI HAS ANNOUNCED AN EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR THE MOTOR DRIVEN POWER STEERING (MDPS) COUPLING ON THE FOLLOWING VEHICLES: ? 2011-2014 SONATA (YFA), 2011-2014 SONATA HYBRID (YF HEV) ? 2007-2015 ELANTRA (HD, MD/UD), 2009-2012 ELANTRA TOURIN

FOR A YEAR STRAIGHT THE CAR HAS BEEN SHUTTING OFF ON MY WHILE I'M DRIVING ON THE STREET'S. THIS IS VERY HAZARDOUS BECAUSE IT RANDOMLY HAPPENS. THE CAR WILL JUST SHUT OFF AS IF IT LOST BATTERY POWER WHILE STILL IN DRIVING GEAR. WHEN RESTARTING THE CAR IT CAN SOMETIMES TAKE AWHILE BECAUSE IT WILL MAKE A CLICKING NOISE LIKE THERE IS EITHER A PROBLEM WITH THE ENGINE OR STARTER FOR THE CAR. WHEN THIS HAPPENS OCCASIONALLY THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WILL COME ON. *TR

WHEN I DRIVE ABOVE 60MILES PER HOUR, MY STEERING WHEEL STARTS TO VIBRATE A LOT AND MAKING NOISES AND IT'S HARD TO CONTROL THE CAR, IT'S LIKE SOMETHING INSIDE THE STEERING WHEEL BROKE. *TR

THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT IS ON IM NOT GOING TO PAY CLOSE TO 300$ FOR A SAFETY FIX THERE ARE PLENTY OF THE SAME MODELS WITH THE SAME ISSUE, A BAD CLOCKSPRING! NEVER WENT OVER ANY BUMPS NEVER ANY RAILROADS JUST STARTED IT ONE DAY AND IT WAS ON. *TR

I WAS GETTING OFF THE FREEWAY ON THE OFF RAMO AND CAME TO A RED LIGHT. WHEN THE LIGHT CHANGED GREEN MY CAR DIED AND I WAS IN LEFT TURN LANE. I COULDN'T MOVE THE CAR FORWARD. I DIDN'T HAVE AC AND THE CAR WOULD NOT START AT ALL. *TR

DRIVING PAST ON THE FREEWAY AND HIS TRUCK KEPT SWERVING INTO OUR LANE. I HONKED FOR OUR SAFETY TO WARN HIM AND PROTECT MYSELF AND MY TODDLER IN THE CAR FROM GETTING HIT. HE THEN PROCEEDED TO FOLLOW ME WITH HIS WIFE IN THE CAR MAKING HAND GESTURES OF SHOOTING ME AND CONTINUED TO ATTEMPT TO SWERVE HIS TRUCK. *TR

BRAKE LIGHTS KEEPS BURNING OUT CONSTANTLY AFTER REPLACING THEM. *TR

THE AIRBAG LIGHT STAYS ON. THEY HAVE RECALLS AND OR MANUFACTURERS EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR OTHER HYUNDAI ELANTRA'S, BUT NOT FOR 2013 HYUNDAI ELANTRA GT? THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND I AM PLACING A COMPLAINT BECAUSE THIS SHOULD BE COVERED AND NOT AN EXPENSE TO OWNER OF THE CAR. IT'S EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND COULD CAUSE SERIOUS HARM WITH SUCH A DEFAULT. ALL HYUNDAI'S HAVING THIS ISSUE, SHOULD BE COVERED UNDER EXTENDED WARRANTY, NOT JUST SOME.

DEALERSHIP QUOTED CONDITION NORMAL. RETURNED TO DEALERSHIP 02/09/2020 DEALERSHIP DETERMINED CONNECTING ROD BEARING DAMAGE. HYUNDAI CURRENTLY ONLY OFFERING 50 % COVERAGE! THIS IS A KNOWN AND ONGOING ISSUE WITH HYUNDAI ENGINES AND SHOULD BE COVERED 100%. VEHICLE CURRENTLY HAS LESS THAN 95,000 MILES ON ODOMETER. HYUNDAI HAS ISSED IN EXTENDED WARRANTY OF $120,000 ON SEVERAL MODELS WITH THE SAME ENGINE PROBLEM. HTTPS://WWW.HYUNDAIENGINEINFO.COM/TECHNICAL-OVERVIEW/#WHATTOLOOKOUTFOR HTTPS://WWW.HYUNDAIENGINEINFO.COM/ ALSO, THE TRUNK LATCH HAS COMPLETELY FAILED ALONG WITH THE EMERGENCY LATCH OPENING IN THE TRUNK.

WHILE APPLYING BRAKES VEHICLES ENGINE WOULD REV UP TO OVER 5000 RPM'S MAKING IT HARD TO STOP ONCE VEHICLE WAS STOPPED AND GEAR SHIFT WAS PUT IN PARK THE VEHICLE WAS SHUT OFF AND RESTARTED WHERE IT NOW WAS RUNNING NORMALY THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE IN THE LAST FEW MONTHS ONCE IN BUSY TRAFFIC THE OTHER WHILE I WAS PULLING INTO MY GARAGE TO GET THE VEHICLE TO STOP YOU REALLY HAD TO PUT ALOT OF PRESSURE ON THE BRAKES MY WIFE WON'T DRIVE IT ANYMORE FOR SHE FEARS SHE'LL BE IN A ACCIDENT I'M AFRAID THAT THESE HIGH RPM'S MAY DO DAMAGE TO THE BRAKES , ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION THE FIRST TIME THIS HAPPENED WAS A FEW MONTHS AGO AND RECENTLY YESTERDAY MARCH 9TH 2020

THE STEERING HAS BECOME LOOSE AN KLUNKS WHEN THE STEERING WHEEL IS MOVED BACK AND FORTH FROM CIENTER POSITION . IT DOES THIS ALL THE TIME WHEATHER MOVING OR STOPPED.

THE CAR FEELS LIKE IT CAN'T GET POWER SHAKES SLOW TO ACCELERATE FOR HALF A BLOCK THEN ACCELERATION. IT'S HAPPENED 5 TIMES TODAY. OTHER DAYS IT SOUNDS LIKE IT'S NOT RUNNING SMOOTHLY AND THEN DOES OK AFTER AWHILE. THIS HAPPENED WITH CAR IN PARK, BACKING UP, GOING FORWARD, 2 DIFFERENT STOPS AT LIGHTS AND 2 MORE STOPS TIL I GOT HOME.

THE AIRBAG LIGHT STAYS ON ALL THE TIME. THE LIGHT IS SUPPOSED TO GO OUT AFTER 6 SECONDS OF THE CAR BEING STARTED. MINE DOES NOT GO OUT AND REMAINS LIT. THEY HAVE EXTENDED THE WARRANTY FOR 15 YEARS FOR THIS ISSUE DUE TO THE CLOCK SPRING NEEDING REPLACED.

THE STEERING COUPLER IN MY 2013 HYUNDAI ELANTRA WENT BAD AROUND 150,000 MILES... NOW THERE'S A CLICKING SOUND AND 'PLAY' IN THE STEERING WHEEL BECAUSE HYUNDAI USED AN INFERIOR PART. ONCE I STARTED RESEARCHING I REALIZED IT'S AN INCREDIBLY COMMON ISSUE THAT THE DEALERSHIP WANTS SEVERAL HUNDRED DOLLARS TO REPAIR. THIS SHOULD ABSOLUTELY BE REPAIRED UNDER A RECALL OR EXTENDED WARRANTY (WELL BEYOND THE 100K MARK) SINCE THIS IS NOT PART OF NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR OR ABUSE.

1-THE AIRBAG LIGHT STAYS ON ALL THE TIME ! 2- THE CAR WAS RECALLED FOR A BREAK ISSUE, SINCE I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER THE PADDLE FEEL LOSER(( I NEED TO PUSH THE BREAK TWO TIMES TO GET THE CLIPPERS WORKS! I HAVE CHANGED THE BREAK CLIPPERS AND THE SAME PROBLEM!!!!

CAR CHUGGED AND SHUT OFF; WAITED AND IT STARTED AGAIN, BUT SINCE HAD TICKING NOISE. DEALER IS SAYING NEW ENGINE NEEDED; STATED HYUNDAI IS AWARE OF THE ENGINE WEARING OUT PREMATURELY AND HYUNDAI IS TRYING TO HELP PEOPLE OUT IF IT IS PAST THE WARRANTY BY PAYING 90% OF THE COST. HYUNDAI SHOULD PAY 100% IF THEY ARE AWARE THAT IT IS A WIDESPREAD PROBLEM. AND THEY SAY IT IS GOING TO TAKE 2-4 WEEKS TO REPAIR.

STEERING CUPLER MAKES A KNOCKING NOISE WHEN TURNING. MY FAMILY MACHINIC STATED THAT THAT THESE CARS HAD A RECALL ON THEM. BUT WHEN CALL DEALERSHIP THEY SAID MY CAR IS NOT PART OF THIS RECALL FOR SAME ISSUE?

RED LIGHT WITH AIRBAG PICTURE STAYS ON IN THE DASH UNDER THE GAUGES. IT COMES ON AND STAYS ON DURING DRIVING WITH SEAT BELTS FASTENED AND EVERYTHING SECURED. MIGHT BE INDICATING SOME SORT OF MALFUNCTION IN SAFETY AIRBAG SYSTEM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HYUNDAI ELANTRA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING, THERE WAS AN ABNORMAL POPPING SOUND IN THE STEERING. NO WARNING LIGHTS WERE ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO MCCONNELL HONDA DEALER, (2840 EASTERN BLVD, MONTGOMERY, AL 36116, (334) 271-2500) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ROUTER CUFF ON THE STEERING WHEEL HAD WORN OUT AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED DUE TO THE REPAIR FEES. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 19,602.

THE ENGINE STARTED TO MAKE A TICKING SOUND A FEW WEEKS AGO WHEN THE FIRST COLD FRONT CAME IN.

BRAKE LIGHT REPLACED COUNTLESS TIMES ON THE DRIVERS SIDE. IT CONTINUES TO BURN OUT.

FOR THE LAST WEEK AFTER SITTING OVERNIGHT MY CAR WILL NOT START. I GET IN WHILE ITS PARKED STATIONARY ON THE STREET, TURN THE KEY, ALL THE LIGHTS COME ON, I CAN HEAR THE FUEL PUMP KICK ON, (THERE IS NO CLICK), AND NOTHING HAPPENS. AFTER I REPEATEDLY TURN THE KEY IT HAS BEEN STARTING BUT I AM AFRAID IT WILL JUST NOT START AT SOME POINT. CALLED THE DEALER WHERE I PURCHASED THEY CAR, THEY SAID TO CALL THE HYUNDAI DEALER. CALLED HYUNDAI DEALER, THEY SAID THEY HAVE NOT HEARD ANYTHING ABOUT THE PROBLEM AND WOULD HAVE TO REPLICATE PROBLEM (THERE ARE COMPLAINTS ALL OVER THE INTERNET ABOUT THIS PROBLEM) THEY SAID I WOULD HAVE TO LEAVE THE CAR WITH THEM, WITH NO CHANCE OF A LOANER (I CANNOT AFFORD TO UBER 26 MILES A DAY). I TOLD THEM ONCE I GET IT STARTED FOR THE DAY, IT USUALLY STARTS RIGHT BACK UP AFTER BEING TURNED OFF. I TOOK A VIDEO OF THE PROBLEM THIS MORNING. IT HAD THE SAME TROUBLE STARTING THIS MORNING WHEN COLD, AND THEN WHEN I GOT TO WORK, 13 MILES AWAY, I TURNED IT OFF AND ATTEMPTED TO START IT, IT DID THE SAME THING (THATS WHY I OBTAINED THE VIDEO OF THE ISSUE). I AM GOING TO HAVE TO BORROW A FAMILY MEMBERS CAR TO DRIVE WHILE THEY DIAGNOSE THIS WIDELY REPORTED PROBLEM THEY HAVE "NEVER HEARD OF". I OWNED A 2007 ELANTRA SINCE IT WAS NEW AND JUST SOLD IT TO BUY THIS PIECE OF GARBAGE.. I NEVER HAD ONE ISSUE IN 13 YEARS OF OWNERSHIP. HYUNDAI NEEDS TO TAKE ACCOUNTABILITY AND RECALL THIS ISSUE.

WITH LESS THAN 22,000 MILES, THE STEERING WHEEL BEGAN MAKING A KNOCKING SOUND WHEN TURNED LEFT TO RIGHT WHILE DRIVING OR STATIONARY. THE STEERING WHEEL WAS MORE DIFFICULT TO CONTROL AS TIME WENT ON. I TOOK IT IN FOR REPAIRS AND FOUND THAT THE COUPLER HAD BEEN SHREDDED. THIS IS A $5 PIECE WHICH COSTS A FEW HUNDRED DOLLARS TO HAVE REPLACED BY AN AUTO SHOP. HYUNDAI SHOULD BE REPLACING THESE, INSTEAD OF ITS CUSTOMERS.

MY ELANTRAS BRAKE LIGHTS ARE ALWAYS ON. MY TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT, EPS LIGHT, ABS LIGHT, AND BRAKE WARNING LIGHT ARE ALWAYS ON AS WELL. I SEE WHERE MY VEHICLE IS SHOWN THAT THE RECALLS HAVE ALREADY BEEN REPAIRED ON MY CAR AND I DO NOT BELIEVE THAT IS TRUE OR THIS WOULD NOT BE HAPPENING. MY BRAKES LIGHTS CONSTANTLY BEING ON IS A MAJOR PROBLEM BECAUSE THAT CAN CAUSE CONFUSION ON OTHER DRIVES AND ESPECIALLY WHEN I'M REALLY USING THEM TO SLOW DOWN. I'M ALWAYS HAVING TO CONSTANTLY REPLACE THE LIGHT BULBS ON THE LEFT HAND SIDE OF MY VEHICLE AS WELL WHICH IS ODD. I'M VERY CONCERNED AND FRUSTRATED AND WISH I WOULD RECEIVE ASSISTANCE IN FIXING THE PROBLEM. I HAVE NOT BEEN IN ANY WRECKS WITH MY VEHICLE EITHER. I ALSO HAD SOMEONE CHECK MY CAR FOR ANY CODES AND VEHICLE SPEED SENSOR CAME UP AS WELL AS BRAKE SWITCH.

WE WERE DRIVING TO TAKE ONE OF MY KIDS DR APPOINTMENT. WE STOPPED TO GET DRINKS FOR THE ROAD. WE TURNED THE CAR OFF CAME BACK TO LEAVE AND IT WOULD NOT START FIX THE PROBLEM THAT IT SAID AND THAT DIDNT FIX IT. WHEN YOU GO TO START IT IT WANTS TO TURN OVER BUT CANT CATCH EVERYTHING STILL WORKS THE WAY IT SHOULD PISTONS MOVE HAVE POWER TO EVERYTHING,TIMING CHAIN DIDNT JUMP THE SPARK PLUGS STILL ALL GET SPARK.

RADIO AND SOME SENSORS IN ENGINE NOT WORKING. SENSORS SHOW MY ENGINE LIGHT ON BUT WHEN CHECKED SAYS THERE IS NOTHING WRONG. THE RADIO WILL NOT TURN ON, FUSE WAS REPLACED AND DID NOT FIX THE ISSUE. THESE PROBLEMS HAPPEN WITH THE CAR IS BOTH STATIONARY AND IN MOTION

PREMATURE WEAR ON INSIDE EDGE OF REAR TIRES. WHEEL ALIGNMENT INDICATES THAT THE REAR WHEELS ARE AT THE HIGH END OF THE SPECIFICATION BUT THERE IS NO ADJUSTMENT. ON WET OR ICY ROAD CONDITIONS THE CAR LURCHES FROM SIDE TO SIDE LOSING TRACTION SHIFTING SIDE TO SIDE. TIRES WEAR OUT AFTER APPROXIMATELY 30K MULTIPLE BRANDS HAVE BEEN TRIED. DEALER DID MULTIPLE WHEEL ALIGNMENTS AND EVENTUALLY PROVIDED TWO NEW TIRES BUT NEVER FIXED THE PROBLEM. I KNOW OF OTHERS WHO HAVE BOUGHT THE SAME YEAR OF VEHICLE AND HAD THE SAME ISSUE. THE LURKING/SHIFTING WHEN DRIVING ON WET OR ICY ROAD IS VERY DANGEROUS. THE TIRE REPLACEMENT ISSUE IS COSTLY AS WELL. REAR TIRES ARE CHAMBERED FROM FACTORY CAUSING THIS ISSUE AND NO ADJUSTMENT CAPABILITIES. THIS SHOULD BE A FACTORY RECALL AND THE REAR AXLE SHOULD BE REPLACED TO PROPERLY ALIGN THE REAR WHEELS. MY FIRST SET OF FACTORY TIRES WHERE EVENLY ON THE FRONT THEY WERE MEASURED AT 8/32 TREAD WHEN THE REAR TIRES WHERE UNEVENLY FROM 8/32 ON THE OUTSIDE TO 0/32 ON THE INSIDE TWO INCHES INTO THE TIRE TREAD. FOUGHT WITH DEAL FIR MONTHS AND MONTHS THEY FINALLY WON AND WORE ME OUT. I JUST STOP GOING TO THEM AND REPLACE MY TIRES AS THEY WEAR OUT. VERY COSTLY AND DANGEROUS FOR OTHERS WHO DON'T KNOW ABOUT THE LURKING/SHIFTING TO DRIVE THIS CAR. THERE ARE NO AFTER MARKET SHIM KITS TO CORRECT THIS ISSUE EITHER. THIS SHOULD BE A SAFETY RECALL FOR THIS VEHICLE AS THE VEHICLE WHEEL ALIGNMENT IS NOT TRACKING PROPERLY WITH NO ADJUSTMENT.

THE STEERING WHEEL MAKES A CLICKING NOISE WHEN TURNED, IT HAPPENS WHEN IT IS MOVING OR STILL TOO.

MY STEERING COLUMN MAKES AN AWFUL NOISE LIKE A CLICKING NOISE THE WHOLE TIME I'M DRIVING IT REALLY SCARES ME BUT I HAVE TO DRIVE IT BC IT'S MY ONLY MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION. NOW MY BREAK LIGHTS ALL THE WAY ACROSS DOESN'T WORK AND IT'S NOT A FUSE.LAST THING IS MY AIRBAG LIGHT STAYS ON ALSO WHICH SCARES ME .PLEASE SOME ONE HELP GET THESE ISSUES RESOLVED QUICKLY I'M THE SECOND OWNER SO I PROBABLY HAVEN'T GOTTEN THE RECALLS ABOUT THESE ISSUES.PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME .THANK YOU

ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON CAR STARTED TO SKIP TOOK TWO CERTIFIED MECHANIC CHANGE SPARK PLUGS TWO CONDENSERS ENGINE FLUSH AND THE ENGINE START RATTLING ENGINE BROKE LOOSE NOW ENGINE IS DESTROYED OR AFTER A TUNEUP. TOOK BACK IMMEDIATELY AND TO A DIFFERENT MECHANIC FOR SECOND OPINION.

CLICKING IN STEERING AND PLAY IN STEERING

JUST BOUGHT THE 2013 HYUNDAI ELANTRA, 12/21/2019, AFTER ABOUT 100 MILES OF DRIVING WE NOTICED THE STEERING WHEEL IS OFF CENTER. WHILE DRIVING IN TOWN AND ON HIGHWAY SHIFTING LANES IT DIDN'T WANT TO GO AND IT WILL PULL HARD LEFT OR RIGHT ALMOST CAUSING TO RUN OFF THE ROAD. 12/25/2019, WHILE ON THE WAY HOME I ALMOST STRUCK ANOTHER CAR. MORE NOTICEABLE FROM 30 TO 55 WORSE OVER 55. DRIVING ON DIRT ROAD FEELS LIKE IT WANTS TO FISH TAIL. STEERING IS STICKY YET A LOT OF PLAY. INTERMITTINGLY WHILE BRAKING IT SOUNDS LIKE SCRAPPING LIKE WHEN YOUR BRAKES ARE BAD. BRAKING SLOWLY OR ABRUPTLY MAKES NO CHANGE. WET ROADS IS WORSE WITH BRAKING.

**STEERING WHEEL SAFETY HAZARD** I HAVE A 2013 HYUNDAI ELANTRA SE COUPE, 50K MILES. I NOTICED THAT ALL THE SUDDEN IN THE PAST WEEK OR SO THERE IS A FEW INCH GAP AND A CLUNKING NOISE IN MY STEERING WHEEL. I BROUGHT IT TO MY DEALERSHIP (KING HUYNDAI AND DEERFIELD BEACH FLORIDA) AND THEY ADVISED THAT MY "STEERING WHEEL COUPLER" NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AND IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY AND THERE ARE NO RECALLS. I SPECIFICALLY ASKED HIM IF THERE ARE ANY POSSIBLE HAZARDOUS OR DANGEROUS ISSUES WITH THIS FAULTY STEERING WHEEL COUPLER. HIS RESPONSE WAS, "ABSOLUTELY, YOUR STEERING WHEEL CAN LOCK UP AND CAUSE A MAJOR ACCIDENT"! HE ALSO ADVISED ME THAT IF I DO NOT HAVE THIS REPAIRED ASAP IT CAN RESULT IN MY ENTIRE ELECTRICAL STEERING SYSTEM TO ALSO BREAK & NEED REPLACEMENT. HE ALSO ADDED, "IF THAT HAPPENS I WILL END UP SPENDING A LOT MORE MONEY FOR THAT REPAIR ALSO"! I DID SOME RESEARCH ON MY OWN AND FOUND OUT THAT THIS BAD "COUPLER" IS MADE OF ONLY PLASTIC!! THE AVERAGE COST IS ONLY ABOUT $10 FOR A NEW ONE. THE DEALERSHIP WANTED TO CHARGE ME OVER $300.00 (OUT OF THE DOOR) FOR THIS SPECIFIC REPAIR. THIS GAP AND CLUNKING SOUND HAPPENS WHILE THE CAR IS TOTALLY STOPPED (BUT STILL RUNNING) AND ALSO DURING NORMAL AVERAGE DRIVING. THIS IS THE ONLY VEHICLE I HAVE AND I TRANSPORT MY THREE YOUNG CHILDREN IN THIS VEHICLE. I AM SO SCARED TO DRIVE IT NOW, I AM TRYING TO FIND OTHER TRANSPORTATION METHODS. ALSO, WHILE DRIVING I AM ABLE TO FEEL EVEN THE SMALLEST PEBBLE UNDER A TIRE AND THE STEERING WH

ELECTRIC STEERING COUPLING DEFECTIVE. CAR HAS ONLY 33K MILES ON IT. UNSAFE TO DRIVE. MECHANIC REPORTS THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH YEAR, MAKE AND MODEL OF CAR. I NOTICED TOO MUCH PLAY AND CLUNKING IN STEERING WHILE STATIONARY AND IN MOTION. CAR BOUGHT FROM DEALERSHIP JULY 3, 2019.. I HAD CAR REPAIRED BEFORE FURTHER DAMAGE OCCURRED.

MY BRAKE LIGHTS WENT OUT AT SAME TIME, SO I WAS RESEARCHING WHAT TO DO AND READ ABOUT THE ONE RECALL (#146) THAT I HAD DONE ALREADY. IT SAID SOMETHING ABOUT STARTING YOUR CAR WITHOUT DEPRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL. I DO NOT DEPRESS THE PEDAL WHEN I START MY CAR. IS THIS AN ISSUE?

ESC INDICATOR IS ON ON THE DASH BOARD DUE TO STEERING ANGLE SENSOR CIRCUIT-SIGNAL ISSUE.
