general problems of the 2017 Hyundai Elantra

I was currently in an accident and my airbags did not deploy. My safety was at risk because I am pregnant. The vehicle was inspected by insurance representatives or body shop. No warning or other symptoms of problems prior to failure.

The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Elantra. The contact stated that while attempting to park the vehicle in a driveway, she was unaware if she was depressing the brake pedal or accelerator pedal; however, the vehicle accelerated out of control and crashed into her barn, where it came to a stop. No air bags deployed. The contact stated that she did not sustain injuries. No medical attention was required. The contact stated that a police report was filed. The vehicle was towed by her insurance company. The fire department was at the scene. The contact mentioned the vehicle was stuck in the barn on both the driver and passenger sides of the vehicle. The contact mentioned that the seat belt did not retract. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.

Air bag light will not turn off so I’m not sure if the air bags work. Oil is going missing from the car causing it to suddenly shut down. It also makes the rpm’s go really high (close to 5,000) when trying to go up hills or accelerate. I don’t see a leak, or puddles under the car, nor black smoke.

When my car was stolen and crashed the whole front end was smashed in but the air bags did deploy. I saw there's several recalls on these cars, one was the airbags. I never got any recall for it and it shows there are no recalls. The brakes have problems, being that it takes forever to slow down. I have to leave about 3 car lengths ahead of me because I can't stop, it takes a while to slow it down. And the steering wheel feels stuck. I had a friend drive it and he said the same thing. It's difficult to handle and not lose control. I'm to the place I'm scared to get on the highway anymore because not being able to stop quickly and swerving all over cause it's hard to control the vehicle. I have had zero recalls tho even with me experiencing this. And the paint is coming off, but at least that won't kill me.

I was driving down the street, and the air bags deployed in their own. I was injured.

The cars breaks are difficult to stop, it does not slow down. The steering wheel is very stiff to turn. And my car was stolen due to Hyundai not equiping it with an immobilizer. It was recovered smashed in the front, no airbags were deploited. I have photos for proof.

The passenger side door will not open from the outside also the passenger airbag light comes on and off by itself also the steering wheel is jerky and movement.

I hit a bus and totaled my car and none of my airbags deployed which seems suspicious.

The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Elantra. The contact stated upon coming to a complete stop, the vehicle accelerated unintendedly over a concrete bar and drove up a hill. The contact depressed the brake pedal but to no avail. The contact steered the vehicle to the right to avoid entering a pool. She then crashed into multiple objects including trees, concrete parking bars, and multiple vehicles before coming to stop. The air bags did not deploy upon impact. The contact was taken to the hospital by ambulance and was treated for injuries to her neck and back. A police report was filed. Due to the failure, the vehicle was towed to an independent tow yard where it was destroyed. Parking barriers and trees were damaged as a result of the failure. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 25,000.

I got into a car accident on August 29, 2021. My driver side aid bag never deployed and I found out there was a recall 2 years before I bought the car from the dealership in 2019. I ended up getting stitches on my eyebrow, and my nose needed some but it was to late by the time I received medical attention so they gave me strips and my lip was split open. I have pictures of my car and my face and the side airbags went off but not the steering wheel.

For more than two years, at irregular intervals, the passenger air bag light on the front panel blinks and the associated chime sounds for about two minutes, then stops. This happens with no passenger in the seat. I have asked the dealer (fitzgerald Hyundai in rockville, MD) several times to look into this. My concern is that if the air bag alarm cannot be trusted when there is no passenger, how can it be trusted to work when it needs to? this seems to me to be an unsafe condition. The dealership stated that since the problem occurs intermittently, they cannot determine a cause, and advised me to contact Hyundai motor America and would likely meet with a representative. I contacted the company in July, and was designated case no. 21751470. Over the next two months, in several email communications with "carmen," I was informed that I should take the car to another dealer. I noted that given the intermittent nature of the problem, there was no reason to believe another dealer would have better luck replicating and resolving the issue. That was the total of Hyundai motor America's help. I terminated the case last month.

While driving the passenger seatbelt alarm goes off and nobody is in the seat. This happens randomly for no reason. Continues to ding until buckled. Air bag engages. Other times it lets me know that the passenger airbag off when empty.

Car was involved in a left frontal/undercarriage accident after being run off the interstate by an inattentive driver. Vehicle was travelling at approximately 40mph upon impact with a large drain grate in a pothole. Impact should have been sufficient enough to deploy the frontal airbags. Side curtain airbags deployed, front airbags did not. Vehicle was deemed a total loss. No major injuries occurred, only minor bruising and burns as a result of side curtain air bag deployment. Driver and two children were inside the vehicle upon impact, all properly restrained by seat belts. Police report was filed. Emergency medical and fire were dispatched as well. Accident occurred on interstate 95 s, in savannah, GA.

Three different independent problems. Passenger airbag dashboard keeps flashing. Weird wheels sound while turning either side. Passenger's seat belt is not functioning.

I was driving and was t-boned on the driver's side. The driver's side curtain airbag deployed late, hitting me in the head and trapping me against the window. I have a resultant shoulder injury that may not have happened with appropriate deployment.

Driving around 35 miles an hour and come to a small curve turned the wheel little bit but car went straight and guard rail hit passager side front of car and driver airbag came out but didn't blow all the way up and had a hole in it with stitching around it so driver airbag is no count just falls in your lap and electric steering is unpredictable.

No complaint.

Airbag has recall.
