Hyundai Elantra electrical problems

I WAS JUST LEAVING FOR WORK AND I TRIED TO START THE CAR, AND I TURNED THE KEY ALL THE LIGHT ON THE DASH LIGHT UP AND NOTHING HAPPEN, NO SOUND NOTHING WAS TURNING, I COULD USE THE RADIO AND ROLLS THE POWER WINDOWS UP AND DOWN AND I HAD TO REMOVE THE KEY AND TRIED IT 2 MORE TIMES AND THEN IT STARTED UP WITH NO PROBLEMS THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAPPEN AND BOTH TIMES I LEFT THE CAR OVERNIGHT AND TRIED IT START IT IN THE MORNING.

FIRST INCIDENT HAPPENED IN APRIL OF 2014. PULLING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY THE POWER STEERING WENT OUT. CALLED THE DEALERSHIP, MADE AN APPOINTMENT FOR THE FOLLOWING WEEK TO BRING MY CAR IN AND IT HAD ONLY HAPPENED ONCE AT LOW SPEEDS. POWER STEERING WENT OUT 2 MORE TIMES DURING THE DAY, CALLED THE DEALERSHIP BACK AND INFORMED THEM I WAS BRINGING MY CAR IN AT THAT MOMENT AS I FELT UNSAFE. ON MY WAY TO THE DEALERSHIP DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY, THE POWER STEERING GAVE OUT ON ME WHILE EXITING THE HIGHWAY GOING 75 MPH. I WAS ABLE TO GET OFF AND LUCKILY THE DEALERSHIP WAS RIGHT OFF THE EXIT. THE EPS LIGHT WAS ON AND IT THREW A CODE. THEY TOLD ME MY STEERING COLUMN WAS BAD. THEY REPLACED IT AND ALL WAS FINE. THEN I HAD AN ISSUE WITH MY FACTORY INSTALLED REMOTE START A FEW MONTHS LATER. THEY TOLD ME A CIRCUIT WAS BLOWN AND IT HAD TO BE REPLACED. NOW THIS YEAR (MAY OF 2015) I HAVE HAD THE REMOTE START AND THE POWER STEERING GO OUT ON ME ONCE AGAIN. MY CAR IS IN THE SHOP, WAS TOLD I NEEDED STEERING COLUMN REPLACED AGAIN. I REFUSED THIS ANSWER, AND THEY ARE DIGGING DEEPER AND HAVE FIGURED OUT THERE IS AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM WITH MY CAR. I HAVE HAD A LOANER CAR FOR 4 DAYS AND THEY STILL ARE NO CLOSER TO FIGURING OUT WHAT IS WRONG.

SNOW PREDICTED. LEFT HOME TO GO RUN ERRANDS AT 9:30 AM, CAR LOOKED SHOWROOM NEW, GOT 1/2 MILE, CAR PULLED ITSELF RIGHT (AS IT HAS PREVIOUSLY) AND BUMPED A SMALL TREE, NO DAMAGE. CAR BACKED UP TO ROADSIDE 10', CAR CUT ITSELF OFF (AS IT HAD BEFORE), WINDSHIELD WENT FROM 30 DEGREES TO 450 DEGREES IN 3 SECONDS. I LEFT MY PURSE (WITH $1200 IN IT) AND EVERYTHING AND FLED ACROSS ROAD TO SAVE MY LIFE. ASKED MAN THERE IF HE HAD A FIRE EXTINQUISHER, HE DIDN'T, ASKED ME TO STAY BECAUSE IT WAS SO COLD, AND I SAID NO, I WANTED TO CHECK MY CAR AND IN THAT 60 SECONDS, I WALKED OUT AND STOOD IN HIS DRIVEWAY AND CAR WAS TOTALLY A BLAZE. IT HAPPENED SO QUICKLY I WOULD NOT HAVE SURVIVED HAD I NOT FLED THE VEHICLE THE CAR FROM DAY 2 RARELY CRANKED, OFTEN CUT OFF GOING 5-55 MPH, PULLED OFF ROAD TO RIGHT, AND SCARED ME SPEECHLESS. LIKE IT WAS HAUNTED AND DROVE ITSELF. I ONLY HAD IT 4 MONTHS. IT WAS A DEATH TRAP AND SHOULD NEVER HAVE BEEN PUT ON THE HIGHWAY. FOR SOME REASON, I GOT ARRESTED, I WAS TOTALLY SOBER AND HAD NO MEDICATION IN MY SYSTEM. TROOPER HAD A BREATH ALYZER, NEVER USED IT. CUFFED ME VERY TIGHTLY, READ ME NO RIGHTS, AND TOOK ME TO STATION ENTRANCE. HE GRABBED MY ARM AND DREW BLOOD (ILLEGALLY) , NO PHONE CALL, FINALLY READ MY RIGHTS, AND DENIED ME SEEING MY LAWYER 3 TIMES. ILLEGALLY. FOR 3 DAYS & NIGHTS, I WAS NEVER ALLOWED A PHONE CALL OR CODE, AM DISABLED AND HAVE OSTEOPOROSIS & HAD TO SLEEP ON A 1/4" OF FLAT PLYWOOD, THOUGH MY JOINTS DON'T TOUCH, I HAVE RESTLESS LEG SYNDROME & MUST SLEEP ELEVATED, IT WAS IMPOSSIBLE. I ALSO WENT WITHOUT ANY OF MY PRESCRIPTIONS 3 DAYS. ALL BECAUSE THIS SCARY CAR BURNED TO BENT METAL WITH NO DASH, NO ENGINE OR PARTS, NO TIRES, SEATS, NOTHING. SO NOT ONLY WAS I IN SHOCK, OUT OF ANY CONTACT WITHOUT MY PRESCRIPTIONS, AND HAD TO PAY $475 BOND, THOUGH I ONLY GET $969 , THIS CAR RUINED MY LIFE OVER A YEAR AGO, AND I HAVEN'T HAD A CAR SINCE.

PERIODICALLY MY CAR REFUSES TO START. THE BATTERY IS GOOD, ALL LIGHTS ON THE DASH ARE NORMAL, HEADLIGHTS WORK, RADIO WORKS, CAR IS IN PARKED POSITION, YET WHEN I TURN THE KEY IT REFUSES TO START. THIS IS THE SECOND SET OF OCCURRENCES OF THE SAME ISSUE. I EXPERIENCED THIS ISSUE LAST YEAR (2014), AT WHICH TIME I HAD TO TAKE THE CAR INTO SERVICE ON MORE THAN THREE OCCASIONS BEFORE THE FIGURED IT OUT. THEY EVENTUALLY SORTED OUT THE ISSUE IN NOVEMBER OF 2014. NOW 6 MONTHS AFTER, IN MAY 2015, THE SAME ISSUE OCCURS ONLY TO FIND OUT THAT HYUNDAI WILL ONLY WARRANTY THE PART BUT NOT THE LABOR COSTS. TODAY WHILE AT THE DEALERSHIP, THERE WAS AT LEAST ONE OTHER HYUNDAI ELANTRA OWNER WITH THE SAME ISSUE. I'D HATE THAT THE CAR REFUSE TO START IN AN EMERGENCY SITUATION THIS IS OBVIOUSLY SOMETHING THAT HYUNDAI IS AWARE OF, YET REFUSE TO TAKE FULL RESPONSIBILITY AND REMEDY THE SITUATION FOR MYSELF AND ALL OTHER CUSTOMERS. I BELIEVE THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL FOR THIS. I ALSO HAVE A SECOND ISSUE WITH THIS CAR, FROM THE DAY OF PURCHASE. THE CAR SHAKES AT SPEEDS BETWEEN 40MPH AND 55MPH. I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR IN ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS TO TWO DIFFERENT HYUNDAI DEALERSHIPS, YET THEY CANNOT FIGURE OUT THE ISSUE. THEY HAVE BALANCED THE TIRES, ALIGNED THE WHEELS, ROTATED THE TIRES, ETC, YET NONE OF THEIR ATTEMPTS HAVE RESULTED IN A SOLUTION. THIS ISSUE MAKE DRIVING THE CAR FEEL VERY UNSAFE, AND VERY UNPREDICTABLE IN WET CONDITIONS

BACKING OUT OF A "FAST FOOD" DRIVE THRU LANE , CAR DID NOT TURN, AS NORMAL, AND STRUCK A POLE WITH THE PASSENGER SIDE BACK PANEL. AT THE TIME I HAD NO EXPLANATION FOR WHY CAR DIDN'T FOLLOW THE DRIVEWAY CURVE. I HAVE NEVER AS AN ADULT HAD AN AT FAULT ACCIDENT, AND HAD NO EXPLANATION FOR THIS. THE PART HAS BEEN RECALLED ON MY CAR. I AM ON A FIXED INCOME & COULD NOT AFFORD TO GET CAR REPAIRED. I PUT REPORT INTO HYUNDAI, BUT NEED TO KNOW LIABILITY FOR "ACCIDENT" & REPAIRS. I CALLED YOUR PHONE LINE & WAS PUT IN TOUCH WITH HYUNDAI & HAVE CASE #[XXX]. THIS FORM WON'T ALLOW ME TO ENTER "EPS CONTROL UNIT". INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 HYUNDAI ELANTRA. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH, THE TRANSMISSION EXHIBITED HESITATION. THE FAILURE RECURRED NUMEROUS TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO FLUSHED THE TRANSMISSION. THE FAILURE PERSISTED AFTER THE SERVICE WAS PERFORMED. IN ADDITION, THE HORN FAILED TO OPERATE INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 20,000.

THE CAR WON'T START. THIS IS A PUSH BUTTON START. I THOUGHT PERHAPS THERE WAS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE KEY THAT HAS TO BE IN THE CAR AT THE TIME OF STARTING THE CAR. THIS IS THE THIRD TIME THIS IS HAPPENED IN THREE WEEKS. THEN I WENT ONLINE AND FOUND OUT THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF OTHER OWNERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. I CALLED AN ONLINE NUMBER AND FOUND OUT THAT THE MANUFACTURE IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM. THEY ARE NOT ISSUING A RECALL BUT THEY CALL THIS A CAMPAIGN AND HAVE A NUMBER FOR THIS PROBLEM WHICH IS 933. THEY WILL NOT PAY FOR A RENTAL CAR, BUT THEY WILL PAY FOR THE REPAIR. THEN I CALLED A DEALER AND THEY SAID THEY DID NOT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THIS PROBLEM BUT TO BRING THE CAR IN. I FEEL THIS IS ALL HUSH-HUSH, TO THE DISADVANTAGE OF THE OWNER, WHO COULD FIND THEMSELVES IN A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION IF ALL OF A SUDDEN THERE CAR WILL START. PLEASE INVESTIGATE, INCLUDING AN ONLINE SEARCH, TO DETERMINE IF A NATIONWIDE MANDATORY RECALL SHOULD BE INITIATED. *TR
