When I attempt to start the car the engine turns but won't turn over. The car does this more often in very cold weather. Even in warm weather it will start sometimes and sometimes I have to try multiple times and sometimes it will not start at all. There are no check engine or other indicators that there is an issue with the car. The only other thing that may or may not be related that is different from what I normally expect is that sometimes the while driving, the car will not accelerate in a timely manner. There is a bit of a hesitation as if the fuel output is not increasing. This happens while I'm already driving (for example when I'm going from the access road and entering the highway or when there is a speed limit increase of some kind). I was told by a mechanic that the part affected is connected to other systems in the car that have an electrical component such as the fuel pump.

As I was driving my oil light came on, it was flickering on and off then all of a sudden my car just stopped and the check engine, battery, and oil light came on. I took it to the shop the told me it was the battery, so I replaced it. 2 months later the same thing happened and I was told it was the fuel pump, so I replaced the fuel pump, and had the oil changed. Now it's been 3 months and I am having the same issue. I love my Elantra but this issue is causing me more money and time. No codes come up when they hook it up for diagnostics so this has to be an issue with a faulty part in the car.

Car stalls when stopping or idling if you do not keep your feet on the gas. It does not happen in the first 10 mins of warming up the car but then happens for the remaining time. I have had a tune up, throttle body serviced, crankshaft sensor replaced, and fuel pump replaced. I have been trying to get this fixed for the last 3 years and nothing has helped.

My 2012 Hyundai Elantra began having acceleration problems for the past 6 to 9 months. As I step on the gas at approximately 30 to 40 mph the automobile kicks, bucks and does not accelerate as intended. My Hyundai dealer replaced the fuel pump/assembly ($700) and it seemed to get worse. Failure to accelerate as expected is a danger if you are trying to enter a busy highway or trying to get out of the way of another speeding vehicle. This seems to occur at speeds up to 65 mph when stepping on the gas. This happens on a regular basis but not every day.

2008 elentra began experiencing failures to start. Removing the fuel pump access cover and pounding on the fuel pump would usually result in successful starting. This fuel pump was a replacement in 2008 under recall 08v694000 because of intermittent failure to run. We thought it again might be the fuel pump motor. However, when we replaced the fuel pump, we found the problem was a bad motor connector plug that had obviously overheated. If this connector became too hot or started sparking inside the tank, it seems like there may be possibility of fuel ignition.

Air bag light on / emmisions air bag all senors were swapped and now I'm being told the cushion should be replaced since the sensor swap didn't solve the problem. $1500 emissions/ pumping gas fuel pump was replaced. Gas pump kicks out after 2-3 seconds when putting in gas. Now I'm told I need to replace charcoal canister, canister close valve, purge control valve, and vent valve. If I don't I eventually won't be able to put gas in the tank. $1,100 they are both serious safety issues and Hyundai needs to back up their product. These are simple consumable pieces like fluids, values, hoses or filters.

It is hard to fill the gas tank up. The fuel pump keeps shutting off and you have to slowly fill the gas tank up. You have to hold the pump to even get gas to fill the tank.

I have had multiple instances where my car has trouble starting, or will not start at all. Beginning in 2012, when the car had to be towed to the local dealer (tustin Hyundai - patterson's) as it wouldn't start. The dealer had the car for roughly three weeks straight, and could not find a problem, so they decided to replace the fuel pump system. Then again in February 2013, my car still had issues starting properly, and the dealer and corporate headquarters were contacted. Additionally, on October 4th, my car would not start once again, and finally, after three times, it started. It is currently at glendale Hyundai for the same issue. I purchased this car brand new in 2012, and have had nothing but trouble. From the issues with starting, to my windows not rolling up. The start issue is a major problem and safety malfunction. As a young woman, I do not feel safe driving my car alone at night or long distances as I cannot count on it being reliable. Hyundai needs to issue a recall, as a simple google search brings up multiple others who have had similar issues, only to be told there is not a resolution.
I have had the car to the dealer three times for poor performance, stalling issues and the fuel pump recall. For the last month the car is having great difficulty turning over at start. Im wondering if the fuel pump will ever be "right".
A week after purchasing my brand new 2008 Hyundai Elantra my car cut off in the middle of the road and failed to start. I luckily was able to eventually get it started in lieu of waiting a hour in the heat at rush hour for the roadside assistance. The car sputtered to the dealeship where I got a loaner. I was called today and told it was the fuel pump. I then decided to research the issue because a brand new car should not be shutting down in the middle of the road. I could not find anything from Hyundai acknowledging the issue. . Read more...
My husband and I bought 2 brand new 2008 Hyundai Elantra GLS pzev engines on June 6, 2008. On July 2, 2008 with less than 400 miles on my husband's car he stopped in the middle of a highway going 55 miles an hour and because of him being in the left hand land there ended up a 3 car accident. My husband did not get hit, but in order to avoid him a car swerved, got rear-ended and pushed into an 18 wheeler on rte 24 in millburn NJ. There is a police report because of this. It turns out Hyundai know there is a fuel pump problem. Our service manager told us after road side assistant towed my husband's Elantra up from NJ to goshen NY. The service manager also said Hyundai is aware of this problem but are not ordering a recall to have the 2008 fuel pumps changed. We called Hyundai to find out why there is no recall and they said our service manager was lying about the fuel pumps. But at the same time they said korea stopped making the fuel pumps and are re-designing a new one. To date they have no idea when the fuel pumps will be shipped from korea. But they are still denying there is a problem. . Read more...
