Tl the contact owns a 2013 Hyundai Elantra. While stationary and driving various speeds, the headlights malfunctioned and stopped working on multiple occasions. Nalley Hyundai in conyers, georgia replaced one of the inoperative headlights, but the failure recurred. In addition, the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where all of the headlights were replaced; however, the failure recurred. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failures. The failure mileage was approximately 100,000.
Two issues: (1) I purchased the vehicle on may 26, 2013. I found out that the gov. Had issued a recall for the Elantra models built from 11-12-2010 through 3-5-2013. My car was assembled on Feb, 22, 2013. I was never told about this at time of purchase and have never received any notification from Hyundai motor America. The dealers are not responsive. (2) the "auto-dimming rearview mirror with homelink & compass" rarely functions. Real problem is that mirror image and headlights are same intensity/ clarity whether unit is turned on or off--very dangerous at night. The dealer I purchased car from and another dealer refused to investigate.
I just bought the 2013 limited Hyundai Elantra over the easter weekend, on 3/31/13. Two days after buying it, I noticed the light in the dash showing whether the headlights were on or not was no longer working, but I put it up to the fact I was driving at dawn/dusk and they were probably not "on" even though the driving lights were on and showing as "on". However on 4/6/13 when driving at 10pm at night with the headlights most certianly "on" the indicator light still did not come on.
