The airbag light on my dash came on about a month ago for no apparent reason and i had my car inspected and no codes were shown. The reason for the airbag light is still unknown and i worry that the airbag wont deploy if i get into an accident. I've heard this happening to several different hyundai elantra owners and i think there should be a solution for this common problem.

Takata recall. I bought this car from the original owner in 2016 around the time a recal for it went out and i didn't know until today. My car sometimes takes two times to actually start. I turn key and have to either hold it or stop and do it again. My car hydroplanes extremely easily compared to other vehicles. Normally it is only a second besides the time i rear ended someone with no bad weather then another…

One tpms sensor failed december 2018, now the other 3 failed in the span of the last 6 weeks. This is an important item. How do you know if the tire is really low when driving, other than a visual or an air gauge. I'm not the only one with this problem. The first time i was driving, on the last 3, the code showed on start-up

I noticed i had to air my tire up once every few days, so i thought there was a nail or slow leak in my brand new tire, but then i had to start airing it up daily, i then took it to the tire shop, they told me i had to get a new rim because there was a crack on the inside of my rim. By the time my new rim came in i was having to air my tire up every hour. I kept the cracked rim. I was driving when i noticed it going…

Due to the design of the 2012 elantra suspension/rear end, the rear wheel tires are worn out well before expectation. Purchased the car new and after 20k miles discovered significant wear on the rear tires...especially the inside of the tire. Thought it was a tire problem. Replaced all tires, and after only 16k miles the rear tires again need replacement. Front tires look like new. The tires are less than 2 years…

Had just had my car in for my 20,000 mile check one week ago. Had tires rotated and all the other recommended service. Was driving on highway, good weather in atlanta, ga, and tire pressure gauge went on. I exited the highway (fortunately i was in a location where i could and it was evening with less traffic than the norm) to find a station to check tires and put in air in. One tire had a bubble/bulge in the…

Two! Not one but two of the oem tires have bubbles in the sidewall. That is a blow out waiting to happen and god knows what damage that can do. I'm afraid to drive the car for fear that one of the tires could blow out and send me off into a ditch. To top it off, the car did not come with a spare tire (to save weight and improve gas mileage) so if it does blow out and i can safely control the car over to the side of…

Pothole induced tire failure - torn sidewall. The limited edition of this car is fitted with 17" rims -- stock tire is a 215.45.17. With approximately 22,000 miles of driving, we have destroyed three tires on potholes, fortunately all were at low speed and there was no loss of control. However, hitting a pothole or other break in the pavement at high speed could easily destroy the tire and cause the vehicle to go…

My low tire pressure light came on so i pulled into the next gas station and noticed that 3 out of my 4 tires had a bubble on the outside sidewalls. Tires are hankook p215 45r 17 87h - dot 5m24 dlh - only one of the tires had this number at the end (4711). I called hankook hq at [redacted] and the person was very short with me tell me they never had a tire recall even though they did have a voluntary recall. I have…

I purchased this car new from a hyundai dealer in march 2012 problem 1. Since early on, the car always exhibited a serious instability in the rear end. Specifically speaking, when driving on any small bump found on any normal road, the car rear suspension will not absorbe the bump like any normal car would but instead severely jumps and then 'darts or shifts' laterally. Even in dry pavement. Having lived in the ne…

Tl* the contact owns a 2012 hyundai elantra. The contact stated that while driving 30 mph, the rear passenger's tire split and the front driver's side tire blew on several occasions. The tire sensor warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was towed to the dealer for diagnosis but the dealer could not duplicate problem. The tires were replaced and the manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate…
