2023 Hyundai Elantra N

While driving through heavy rain on the interstate Friday night the CEL came on and the vehicle immediately lost power and went I to a limo mode causing my car to rapidly lose speed while on the interstate. Restarting the vehicle did nothing. I called the closest Hyundai dealer and they said " oh yeah the N models do that a lot in the rain or through carwashes, it triggers false knock sensor codes, you can try to get a parts store to clear the code or you can come in tomorrow and we will clear the code." I then got a parts store to clear the code and the vehicle has been fine since. I did a quick internet search and apparently this is very common and lots of owners have this happened multiple times a year and the dealer has no fix or intention of a fix

Hit a shallow pothole at or around 40-55 miles/hour. Estimate. Strut mount broke. Hit a shallow pot hole and strut mount broke and pulled car to the right. Safety issue for 18 year old driver. Dealer refused to receive vehicle and investigate. Said it was an insurance issue. Insurance inspected car. Adjuster said he has never seen a new car break strut mount. Car bottom graphics and underneath not damaged. Rust was on the brand new strut mount welds. Body shop advises that was reason of failure, rust on welds. Not right for a pothole to break strut and end up totaling out a brand new $38,000 car. Not right that insurance is responsible to pay for it and Hyundai would not even look at vehicle.

Hello. While driving my 2023 Elantra N, innthe middle of driving, it set a flashing check engine light. During this event, my car started sputtering in between shifts and would not climb over 2500 rounds per minute. During this event I was driving 70 miles per hour on the highway, causing me to almost get rear ended. The check engine light is flashing but is consitently set. The code that's causing the check engine light is P132600. After doing my own personal research in Elantra N forums, this has been a common fault among many Elantra N models. Hyundai has made no official recall for it yet.

This problem occurred in my previous vehicle which was a 2022 Hyundai Kona N. I took it through a car wash and had a check engine light turn on. The car went into limp mode and I had it towed to the dealership. The check engine light was a code from the knock sensor. Hyundai replaced the engine when the vehicle only had 5,200 miles on it. I have since traded that vehicle for a 2023 Hyundai Elantra N. Upon doing some research, it is a very common issue with the N trims of Kona's and Elantra's to throw a check engine light due to heavy rain or car washes. Sometimes this results in an engine replacement, other times just resetting the code. This issue needs corrected. So far, Hyundai has practically ignored me on this. I have sent in multiple screenshots of the same issues that others have been facing. When this check engine light comes on, the vehicle goes into limp mode which is very dangerous if traveling at highway speeds.
