Hyundai Elantra electrical problems

CAR WOULD NOT START. AFTER A FEW ATTEMPTS WITH HOLDING THE KEY ON START POSITION IT WOULD START AS NORMAL. IT WAS TAKEN TO LOCAL DEALERSHIP WHO STATE THE ENGINE GROUND WIRES WERE CORRODED. IT'S A 2013 ELANTRA WHEN ASKED WHAT CAUSED THE CORROSION , THE DEALERSHIP STATED THEY DIDN'T KNOW BUT THEY HAVE HAD 8 OTHER VEHICLES WITH THE SAME ISSUE THIS MONTH. I'D BE CONCERNED THIS COULD BECOME A FIRE HAZARD AND IT CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO SHUT OFF WHILE RUNNING. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.[XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

CAR LOOSELY STEERED BARELY OFF ROAD, 1/8 MILE FROM HOME,BUMPED TREE 15' AWAY, BACKED UP, ENGINE SHUT OFF (AS USUAL SINCE DAY 2 OF LEASE), WINDSHIELD HEATED TO OVER 150 DEGREE'S IN 35 DEGREE WEATHER, SO I VACATED CAR, WHICH WAS IN FLAMES 2-3 MINUTES AND BURNED TO ASH..HAD 5 MONTHS, DAILY PROBLEMS, BATTERY, FUSES, IGNITION, NUMEROUS CALLS TO DEALER, SHOP, NO HELP, COULD EASILY HAVE DIED IN FIRETRAP ALIVE, CAR DOVE ITSELF, WHEN & WHERE IT PLEASED, AND WAS UNCONTROLLABLE.EVEN HYUNDAI MOTOR FINANCE HAS NOT PAID ON GAP COVERAGE IN 11 MONTHS, RUINING MY CREDIT TO BOOT, AND WAS OVER FINANCED PAST LEGAL LIMITS, ON A TOTAL NEW LEMON AND NOT ONLY WAS CAR NOT REPLACED AS PROMISED,I CANNOT GET A RESPONSE FROM HYUNDAI, OR HYUNDAI FINANCE.,THIS WAS THE BIGGEST MISTAKE OF MY LIFE, AND I WILL TELL EVERYONE TO NEVER PURCHASE A HYUNDAI PRODUCT. YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED.AND LOSE YOUR FRANCHISE LICENSE.I WILL HAVE TO SUE TO EVER BEGIN TO BE COMPENSATED FOR ALL YOU HAVE DONE TO ME, AND BECAUSE OF YOUR PRODUCT. *TR

A FEW DAYS BEFORE THIS INCIDENT, A WARNING INDICATOR LIGHT APPEARED ON MY INSTRUMENT PANEL. I MADE AN APPOINTMENT FOR THAT WEEKEND TO HAVE IT CHECKED AT A LOCAL DEALERSHIP. AS I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK, THE FIRST UNUSUAL THING THAT HAPPENED WAS THE HYUNDAI LOGO APPEARED ON THE NAV SCREEN WHILE THE CAR WAS IN MOTION.TYPICALLY THE HYUNDAI LOGO ONLY APPEARS WHEN THE CAR IS FIRST STARTED-NEVER WHILE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. ABOUT 10 MILES LATER, ALL OF THE POWER TO THE VEHICLE DISAPPEARED AS I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 65 MPH IN HEAVY TRAFFIC. WHEN THIS HAPPENED, IT FELT AS IF I HAD BEEN REAR-ENDED IN AN ACCIDENT. AFTER DETERMINING THAT WAS NOT THE CASE, I LOOKED AT THE INSTRUMENT PANEL TO SEE ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. NOW I'M TRYING TO MOVE TO THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY WHEN THE POWER WAS MAGICALLY RESTORED AND THE WARNING INDICATOR LIGHT THAT HAD APPEARED A FEW DAYS PRIOR WAS NOW GONE. I DID NOT HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO PULL TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, PUT THE TRANSMISSION IN PARK AND ATTEMPT TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. NO, IT RESTARTED ALL BY ITSELF! I TOOK IT TO TWO DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS WHO BOTH ASSURED ME THE CAR WAS FINE AND THAT WHAT I DESCRIBED WAS IMPOSSIBLE TO OCCUR. TRUST ME WHEN I TELL YOU THAT UNLESS YOU'VE EXPERIENCED LOSING ALL POWER TO A VEHICLE WHILE DRIVING AT 65 MPH, YET HERE IS NOT ANOTHER FEELING LIKE IT. I NO LONGER FELT SAFE IN MY OWN VEHICLE AND MADE ARRANGEMENTS FOR IT TO BE REPLACED. I WOULD HAVE FELT MUCH MORE COMFORTABLE HAD THE DEALERSHIP(S) FOUND SOMETHING THAT COULD HAVE BEEN REPAIRED. GIVEN THAT THEY COULD FIND NOTHING WRONG LEFT ME VERY LEERY OF THE VEHICLE'S ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. ALSO, THE MPG GAUGE WOULD RESET ITSELF; AT IDLE, IT FREQUENTLY ALMOST STALLED; AT NIGHT, THE HEADLIGHTS WOULD FLICKER AT IDLE; THE COMPASS READOUT ON THE REAR VIEW MIRROR WOULD ALSO FLICKER AT IDLE WHEN THE VEHICLE ALMOST STALLED---VERY BIZARRE BEHAVIOR FROM A VEHICLE. *TR

EARLIER THIS SUMMER MY FRONT PASSENGER WINDOW, DRIVER CONTROL WOULD ROLL THE WINDOW DOWN BUT NOT UP, THEN ABOUT 2 MONTHS LATER THE SAME ISSUE WITH THE DRIVER SIDE REAR WINDOW IT IS VERY PUZZLING HOW THE DRIVER CONTROL WILL LOWER THE INVOLVED WINDOWS, BUT ITS AS IF THE DRIVER CONTROLS ARE DEAD WHEN TRYING TO ROLL UP??? BUT IF YOU USE THE UP SWITCH ON THE DOOR THE WINDOW IS ASSOCIATED WITH THEY WORK BOTH WAYS. RISKY IN SOME OF THE AREAS I HAVE TO TRAVEL FOR WORK TO REACH OVER OR BEHIND YOU TO PUT UP WINDOWS! HAD ANYONE EXPERIENCED THESE PROBLEMS? *TR

CAR WOULD NOT START WHEN KEY TURNED. DASH LIGHTS CAME ON, BUT ENGINE WOULD NOT TURN OVER OR EVEN CRANK. THE ONLY SOUND WAS A SLIGHT CLICK IN THE ENGINE WHEN THE KEY WAS TURNED. JUMP START WOULD NOT HELP. REMEDIED BY TURNING THE KEY UNTIL I COULD SHIFT OUT OF PARK TO ANOTHER GEAR, THEN RETURNED TO PARK. DID THIS MULTIPLE TIMES AND FINALLY THE CAR STARTED NORMALLY. CONCERNED ABOUT LOSING POWER WHEN DRIVING AND HAVING AN ACCIDENT, OR GETTING STRANDED SOMEWHERE. CALLED DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY COULD CHECK FOR BATTERY ISSUES (WHICH IT IS NOT), BUT TO CALL THEM IF IT HAPPENED AGAIN (HOPEFULLY, NOT WHILE DRIVING). *TR

WHEN TURNING ON THE IGNITION SWITCH THE CAR INTERIOR LIGHTS LIGHT UP. TURNING THE KEY TO THE IGNITION POSITION, NOTHING HAPPENS. THERE IS NO DRAW ON THE DASH LIGHTS OR ANY OTHER LIGHTS ON THE CAR. IT SIMPLY HAS NO NOTICEABLE EFFECT. I HAVE TO TURN THE KEY OFF AND ON NUMEROUS TIMES BEFORE IT STARTS. NOT STARTING IS, OF COURSE, A CONCERN. THE EXPENSES FROM TAKING IT TO A MECHANIC HAS BECOME A REAL DRAIN ON OUR FINANCES. HOWEVER, IF IT BEGINS TO TURN OFF WHILE WE ARE DRIVING, SERIOUS INJURIES MAY OCCUR. {REF: CHEVY COBALT} PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS ISSUE. GETTING AHEAD OF THIS COULD PREVENT MORE TRAGIC OCCURRENCES. *TR

MY 2012 ELANTRA HAS FAILED TO START 3 TIMES WHILE IT WAS IN PARK AND 2 TIMES WHILE I WAS ON THE FREEWAY IN A PERIOD OF 12 MONTHS. THERE WAS NO WARNING WHILE I WAS ON THE FREEWAY. ALL DASHBOARD LIGHTS WERE ON, RADIO WAS ON AND IT WAS UNTIL I TRIED TO ACCELERATE WHEN I REALIZED THAT THE CAR HAD TURNED OFF ON ME. LUCKILY, IT WAS IN HEAVY TRAFFIC GOING ABOUT 15 MILES PER HOUR, NONETHELESS, IT WAS A PRETTY NERVE WRECKING UNSAFE EXPERIENCE. I WAS ABLE TO TURN THE CAR BACK ON AFTER 3-4 ATTEMPTS. MY BIGGEST FEAR IS THAT THE CAR CAN POTENTIALLY TURN OFF ON ME WHEN I'M GOING 60+ MPH. I DRIVE MY KIDS EVERYWHERE IN THIS CAR AND I FEAR FOR THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER AFTER EVERY INCIDENT AND THEIR MAIN RESPONSE IS THAT THEY CANNOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM, THEREFORE, THEY CAN'T FIX IT. AT ONE POINT, THEY CLAIMED THAT IT COULD BE DUE TO CARBON BUILD UP IN THE ENGINE SO I PAID ~$300 FOR THAT SERVICE WHICH DID NOT HELP BECAUSE THE CAR TURNED OFF ON THE FREEWAY SEVERAL MONTHS LATER. I HAVE EVEN HAD THE HYUNDAI TOW TRUCK FROM ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE TOW MY CAR FROM MY WORK PARKING LOT TO THE DEALER IN HOPES THAT IT WAS PROOF THAT THE CAR DID NOT TURN ON. TOW TRUCK DRIVER CONFIRMED THE CAR DID NOT TURN ON, THEN PREPPED CAR TO PLACE ON TOW TRUCK BED. HE GOT THE CAR TO DEALER, THEN ATTEMPTED TO TURN ON THE CAR AND IT DID. I TRIED TO GET DOCUMENTATION FROM HIM BUT HE DECLINED. ALL I GOT WAS A LETTER THAT STATED THAT THE CAR WAS TAKEN FROM MY WORK PARKING LOT TO THE DEALER WITH ZERO DETAILS. THE DEALER IS BEING IRRESPONSIBLE AND DOES NOT STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE. I AM IN THE PROCESS OF PURSUING THE LEMON LAW AND GOING TO BBB FOR ARBITRATION IN HOPES THAT THEY TAKE THE CAR BACK. I FEEL LIKE I DON'T HAVE AN ALTERNATIVE. I CANNOT, WITH A CLEAR CONSCIOUS, SELL THIS CAR TO A DEALER OR A PRIVATE PARTY KNOWING THAT IT IS DEFECTIVE. *TR
