2017 Hyundai Elantra

My 2017 Hyundai Elentra Sport engine failed with 127,000 miles on it. Hyundai had a class action lawsuit for many models that guaranteed engine replacement and extended the life of the warranty to 15 years/150,000 miles. Unfortunately, it is the same issue with my model. Oil consumption issues resulting in a Blown piston. Oil was changed a week prior. Preston Hyundai confirmed that it was a Rod failure in the second piston. Paid the diagnostic fee and they put in a “Good Will claim and it was denied within 30 minutes. Preston Hyundai still has not sent me a receipt detailing their diagnostic or a copy of the goodwill claim after multiple requests. I want the record of this because the class action lawsuit that ended up protecting owners many years later

Without any warning lamps coming on, the vehicle car stalled while driving on the highway. It randomly stalls constantly when turning corners, especially on left turns (odd?). The scariest thing that happened was it got stuck on the speed limit of 55-60 miles per hour and I couldn't brake or accelerate. This put my kids, other drivers, and my life at risk. On Father’s Day, while my husband was out with the kids the vehicle tried to accelerate on its own when he was at a stop. It happened multiple times as he tried to make it home. Then when he was in stop and go traffic, it got difficult for him to brake. The brakes started failing. What more can I say?

Safety concern is that the car lost power without warning while driving on 4 lane highway. My son was attempting to pass another vehicle and he noticed the hyundai was not accelerating with his foot on gas pedal. he had to coast back across the lanes of traffic to avoid being hit. Confirmed issue:The car had to be towed and Hyundai dealer states the vehicle needs a new engine. Vehicle has been inspected by Hyundai dealer no warning signs at all

Since January 2024 I have had issues with my car starting due to low oil. I just had an oil change so I knew something was wrong. The repair shop stated there were no leaks and put more oil in and said that sometimes the car will not start if there is not enough oil. February 2024 and the car wont start again. Filled it with oil and took it to the shop again. They stated that the engine is eating the oil and to take it to the dealer for a test. Since then the car has turned off multiple time both while idling and while on the freeway. When you hit the gas it will not accelerate either. In the past I was able to turn the car off and back on again and it would work just fine but now it seems more frequent. Also, while driving when experiencing these issues I have had the stereo screen shut off and restarted by itself. At times the slippery when wet alert will also show on the dashboard which has been a sign for me that they car is going to act up so I turn it off right away and back on then it runs.

Loss of engine power, car shuts abruptly off while driving. increases the risk of a crash and death. Less than a year after I purchased my car from the dealer. My check engine light would turn on and off frequently. Secondary mechanics couldn’t diagnosis problem engine check would show unnecessary/ different codes. Car burns oil at a very fast rate. Shut of three times while driving yesterday on the LIE. I am scared for myself and my families safety. I can’t afford a new engine or car. Please help The 2017 Electra SE has many recalls for make and model. My vin isn’t under recall.

I bought my used Hyundai Elantra 20017 in July of 2022. It's at the shop again for the same thing. While driving, it will just shut off. In traffic. My son was with me a few times when this happened, almost causing accidents. It's in the shop, second time, for engine failure! This car is crap and needs a recall on the engine before someone/ people get hurt while they are driving it.

The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Elantra. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the contact stated that while decelerating, the vehicle independently turned off. Additionally, the check engine warning light was illuminated. The contact restarted the vehicle and drove to the destination. The contact stated that the vehicle then failed to restart. The vehicle was towed to the dealer; however, the vehicle was not diagnosed. The contact was informed that an engine teardown needed to be completed before the cause of the failure could be determined. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and a case was filed. The failure mileage was approximately 117,000.

When I stop at stop signs or stop lights, the car will stall out. I have to turn off the car fully, turn it back on, and immediately step on the gas pedal in order to start the car up again. This was incredibly dangerous as the first few times this happened, the stoplights had turned green, but I could not move the car. I am also afraid that the car could potentially stall in the middle of driving. The engine light has turned on and the car was inspected by Hyundai and a third party auto shop. The third party auto shop informed me that they had seen multiple models of my car with the same issue. The car is available for inspection upon request.

The car randomly dies on de-acceleration. It gives no warning and I have seen online this is a known issue with this year/model. I have 55,000 miles on it, it's been regularly serviced. When I got to slow down then start to accelerate it shuts off. I've nearly been hit multiple times going to merge from a stop. It's very dangerous. I've replaced all 4 spark plugs, all 4 ignition coils, air filter, cabin filter, oil filter, PCV valve and I've only owned it 6 months. No engine light comes on and no reader is picking up any codes. I'm at a loss as to what causes this.
