general problems of the 2012 Hyundai Elantra - part 2

Takata inflators first day I got the car, I was driving slow due to poor conditions (snow) when I tried to stop brakes made a grinding noise car pulled off to one side. I came dangerously close to smashing into a snow bank. I assumed this happened because of the road conditions. This has happened repeatedly and unexpectedly, every once in awhile I apply the breaks, hear the grinding noise aand lose control of the car. Im very lucky and surprised I havent gotten into an accident because of this. Its extremely scary and I absolutely hate driving the car in fear of this happening and causing a crash.

When riding the vehicle at 60 -70 mph, and hitting a normal bump/hole in the road, the stability control makes very aggressive adjustments in the rear of the car and make you feel you are losing control of the car. During winter/snowy roads there is weak stability in the rear suspension. This is really scary!. Please help us identify what is the issue with this vehicle. Thanks.

I was driving in dry weather and on normal road conditions when the esc light begin to blink for no apparent reason. I could not accelerate when this occurred, and then the vehicle brakes locked up. Luckily, I was entering onto a on ramp and the vehicle skidded to a stop onto the shoulder. If this would have occurred while traveling at a higher rate of speed it could have been very dangerous. I had the vehicle towed to a nearby Hyundai dealership for review of the issue.

The contact owns a 2012 Hyundai Elantra. While driving at various speeds, the engine light remained illuminated. In addition, while driving 65 mph, the vehicle shook violently and made a loud noise each time it drove over a bump or pothole. The failure recurred numerous times. The vehicle was taken to a dealer and was repaired from a previous recall; however, the failure recurred. The contact received notification of NHTSA campaign number: 15v871000 (electronic stability control). The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 61,828.

Have had 3 instances during warm/hot weather that the esc light has come on (blinking) during normal city driving (after a little freeway driving & using the ac) & the vehicle performance is impaired due to the esc (no pwr or inadvertent braking w/o driver braking). Only way to bypass this is by using the esc off button. It appears to go away after the car is shut off & cooled down. Guessing that this is some kind of heat related problem (maybe a short) which causes the esc to improperly kick in.

The contact received notification of NHTSA campaign number: 15v871000 (electronic stability control). The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The vehicle was destroyed.
