After being parked overnight, sporadically the car will not shift out of park upon pressing the brake and starting the car. The little button on the shifter that you push in order to move out of park is locked and when pressed, emits a sound coming from the ignition where you put the key in. You can hear it click from the steering column each time you press the release button on the shifter. The only way to fix the…

Sudden, hard and dangerous downshift to i think first. You can be going slow and it could happen but it just happened to me at 40 or 50 miles an hour. You push the gas a little and no acceleration and i mean nothing and there should have been . You push some more and still nothing happens. Then all of a sudden it slams into i think first.

The car intermittently does not start. Car will start after it sits for a length of time (could be hours or days) or after it has been towed to the dealership. Movement seems to shake the connection if that is the problem, into working. Has left owner stranded on numerous occasions in the last 5 weeks. Dealership says that if it can not reproduce the problem, therefore they can not diagnose it. Very dangerous for me…

The transmission range sensor on my car died after about 78000 miles and caused the car to lock up while on the highway. Stayed in 3rd gear and for a few weeks before would lock up while in park, neutral, reverse and drive (most commonly while in park). This nearly caused a couple of accidents. After doing some research this appears to be a common problem with elantras dating all the way back to 2007 and even has…

The car won't start at times. I turn the key, all the lights and radio come on, no power to start the engine, no noise, no crank, nothing. If i wiggle the gear selector gently it will start. Last night it was stuck in park and i had to turn the car off, wiggle the selector a little again, and then it started and unlocked the gear selector. And yes, my foot is always firmly on the brake when i try to shift gears. *js
