Initially, i was told that they tried to use epoxy to fix the noise and i would have to wait 36 hours (over the weekend) to let it dry. On monday, the…

The 2011 through 2013 elantra's have this same inherent issue in which the rear of the car is not engineered to maintain a straight line or track properly over bumps and dips in the road. I have taken my 2013 elantra limited to mccarthy blue springs hyundai and called hyundai customer service and requested contact by their district service manager over the past year but it has been over 2 months and no response from…
