general problems of the 2014 Hyundai Elantra - part 2

The panoramic sunroof of our 2014 Hyundai Elantra gt spontaneously exploded. We were traveling on I-75n, about 25 miles n of bradenton, FL at 65 - 70 mph in sunny conditions, temperature around 70, about 10:30 a. M. There were no cars/trucks directly in front of us and we were not near an overpass. All windows were rolled up and the automatic hvac system was on. We heard a loud boom somewhat like a shotgun blast in the ear. We looked around and saw the entire front section of the sunroof shattered. Glass rained in the car - front seat, back seat. There were large chunks of glass, small chunks, and even a piece of metal sunroof assembly in the car. We were frightened but managed to maintain control of the car. We pulled off at a rest stop to assess the problem. We are now afraid of the car - even if repaired, what next? another explosion? other safety problems? at the time of the explosion, the car had approximately 3500 miles on it. We have owned the car since October 28, 2015 having purchased it as a new car from harrisonburg Hyundai in virginia.

My car had less than 10,000 miles when a bubble in the tire wall front passenger side was noticed during a profesional inspection (9/23/2015). I was advised to replace the tire immediately when I called the dealership. I did so. Then during a state inspection in January of 2016 I received a call that the tire wall on the front driver's side had a bubble. My car had 17,800 miles on it at this point. This tire was also replaced and the owner of the inspection shop told me that he had serviced other people with the same make and model that had the same problems. At this point I am concerned about driving my car for fear that a tire will blow out. Neither of the bubbles were noticeable to me. They are not easily found unless someone is working on the car. I believe these tires are defective. I have read many complaints about them and feel that a recall is warranted due to danger from tires blowing out while driving.

The issue is with the steering. No power steering, very hard to turn the steering wheel. Called the dealer. Brought the car to the dealer. 08/04/2015. Diagnose: the steering wheel and column all need to be replaced. The make of this car is a 2014 Elantra gt with only 6400 miles. 08/21/2015 still waiting on the part that is back order to come in.

Pulled into parking spot. With my foot on the break, I was putting the car into park. Which is the only way to move the p,r,n,d,1,2. As soon as I moved it toward park, the car jolted forward hopping over the parking stump and into a light post.

I am the financed owner of a black 2014 Hyundai Elantra that I had purchased in August of 2014. I was driving south bound on I-95 traveling in the farthest left lane when a car to the right of me, lost control of their vehicle and hit the rear passenger side of my car which pushed the front end of my car into the wall, which then caused the vehicle to do a 360 spin. After the 360 spin my vehicle had come to a complete stop facing north bound in the south bound I-95 lanes, immediately after stopping I was hit head on by an oncoming car. After being hit head on I was knocked unconscious and woke to my car in the emergency lanes to the right of the south bound lanes of I-95. I had realized that the passenger side window curtain airbags were the only airbags that had deployed during the entire car accident. After further inspection, it was obvious that the front frame of my vehicle was demolished right where the airbag sensors are located. I am highly concerned that there is a defect or malfunction with the airbags or possibly the computer system, not only for what could have been possible casualties, but a friend of mine has a 4 year old and purchased the exact same make/model vehicle. As well as, when I purchased this vehicle, I was assured that it was a safe car and that its safety features were up to par. I would feel reassured knowing that this was taken into further investigation because I am uncomfortable with the unknown reason of why my airbags did not deploy in a major accident.

I am the owner of a 2014 white Hyundai Elantra, VIN no. 5npdh4ae4e50194. At present the odometer is reading 6,800 miles. On Tuesday, December 9th, at approximately 5:25 p. M. While driving my 2014 Hyundai Elantra at a slow speed (approximately 10-15 mph) in a shopping center parking lot located at 10100 w. Sample road, florida, I experienced a sudden and unexpected acceleration, which caused a severe crash involving two other vehicles. My vehicle suddenly accelerated which thereby caused me to lose control of the vehicle and collide with two parked cars (an SUV and a sedan. Even after colliding with the SUV I still was unable the stop the vehicle which was traveling at such a high rate of speed that I collided with a second vehicle. It was only when I put the car into the park position did the vehicle come to a stop. At no time did the car’s airbags deploy. I am beyond distressed about this accident. I am a safe driver and have never experienced an accident such as this before. Aside from my physical and emotional injuries, I has suffered several injuries. This has just added to my distress and disappointment about the accident. When I purchased the vehicle I was assured that this was a safe car, however, I have looked at the NHTSA website and there are multiple complaints about the Hyundai Elantra, including several sudden and unexplained acceleration crashes. I intend to file a complaint myself. The preliminary estimate of the damage to my car is over ten thousand dollars and now I face selling the car because there is no way that I would feel safe or comfortable driving it again. I have two young grandchildren that visit me frequently and I would never take the chance of having them in an unsafe car. I expect that you will be eager to conduct a full investigation into this matter and conduct a full inspection of my car as soon as possible.

I was on a highway driving the vehicle (a 2014 Hyundai Elantra) at highway speed when it inexplicably "stalled" for lack of a better term. I quickly lost speed and could not accelerate despite the fact that I was pressing the gas pedal all the way to the floor at one point. The vehicle simply did not respond. There was plenty of gas in the vehicle, so I had not run out of gas. The vehicle appeared to have shut off in the middle of operation. This resulted in a major accident on a highway where I, along with the other occupants within the vehicle, sustained significant injuries. Notably, no airbags deployed--even though the vehicle was struck several times from different angles and sustained heavy damage, including being crushed in from the rear.

Hyundai vehicles do not come with a spare tire. Instead you get an air compressor and fix a flat. This is a safety concern as tire damage that can not be sealed with fix a flat leaves the driver stranded, unable to put on a spare tire and go. This presents a safety hazard as it leaves drivers stranded on the road. This should not be allowed.
