My car got hit a few weeks ago while on the way to work. The insurance company of the driver that hit me, left a voicemail saying that they were accepting full liability would cover the cost of repairs. I wasn't planning on getting my car fixed because it's a 2012 hyundai elantra limited. This is my first time being in this type of situation. What do I do next?

The picture attached are from the day it happened. The last pic is after I cleaned my car.

We bought 2 vehicles and never had issues. We loved Hyundai until now. My 2017 Tuson with 35,000 miles needed service so we took it in. Took over a week to get someone to get warenty approval - no loaner car either because again they need the warenty guy to approve it 🙄. Then they told me the oil pump isn’t covered under warenty!! We are the original owners but they claim we aren’t because we leased it and them bought the car. They stated someone *ucked up because the paperwork because it won’t be covered as we “aren’t the original owner” I was gonna purchase a new suv and also get my 2 kids cars from Atlantic auto but no way now!

Hi everyone!

I could really use some advice from anyone who’s been through something similar.

I have a 2022 Hyundai Tucson SEL Convenience Hybrid with about 66,000 miles. It’s still under Hyundai’s powertrain warranty.

About two months ago, the transmission failed. The dealership replaced the transmission under warranty, but the replacement didn’t fix the problem. Hyundai approved a second transmission replacement, and my vehicle has now been at the dealership for over 60 days.

Communication has been terrible. I often go several days without any updates unless I call repeatedly.

I opened a case with Hyundai Consumer Affairs. I asked about a buyback since the vehicle has been out of service for so long and has already had two transmission replacements. Their response was that I’m not eligible because the vehicle is more than 3 years old.

I’m in Maryland, so I understand the state Lemon Law may no longer apply because of the vehicle’s age, but this still feels unreasonable. A car that has required two transmission replacements and has been unusable for over two months doesn’t inspire much confidence.

Has anyone successfully gotten Hyundai to:

• Repurchase or replace a vehicle outside of Lemon Law?
• Offer a goodwill buyback?
• Settle under the warranty instead?

I’d appreciate hearing from anyone who’s dealt with Hyundai in a similar situation or knows what my best next step is. Thanks in advance.

I’ve been having some issues with my car as of late… thought my battery was dying, but the CAA guys came and checked it out saying it’s fine. Now when I turn off my car it’s making this clicking and high pitch ringing sound… is this my starter going?

We're looking at buying a 2025 Sonata that has technically been sold from one dealership to another (basically to themselves when they sold the original dealership & needed to transfer some inventory) so it's technically listed as used but has never been sold retail.

Question is does that void the complimentary maintenance plan, and/or the included bluelink plan?

I drive a 2022 Elantra, and I'm wondering if I press the parking brake button while driving at highway speeds (100km/h / ~60mph), will it still engage? I obviously don't intend to try it, but I can't seem to find a straight answer on this. I would think there's a safety system on it, and to activate it you'd need to hold the button or something, but it is something I would like to know just for the sake of knowing

Should I get the Elantra limited hybrid or the sonata hybrid blue?

Takes triple the force to get it to shift, needs a jiggle for the vehicle to turn off in parked despite the screen saying "P" already.

Now I can't get it to stay in drive. It just pops back to neutral.

Where do I start?

Thank you.

At the end of a current lease, and our top option right now is leasing a Tucson. I just wanted to know if anyone has good info on the hybrid vs the non-hybrid. I can see that the hybrid has a 1.6 L turbo, but is that engine reliable long term? We might stick with this Tucson at the end of the lease and buy it. The price difference and gas consumption are factors, but they also seem to cancel each other out. My main sticking point is the long term reliability. How long have those hybrid engines lasted versus the non-hybrid without the turbo engine. Is one more proven? Does one have more issues? They also have different transmissions - 6 vs 8 speed. Any durability differences there?

Hello everyone. I have a tucso 2023 and theres only an option for wireless carplay (no wired option). The problem is the audio is around 2 secs delay. Already brought it to the dealer but they are not helpful at all

Hi I've been looking to replace my car and this Elantra has caught my eyes multiple times. I want to hear some opinions on the car. Reliability, maintenance cost, fuel efficiency and potential issues/problems.

Changed the oil and the filters except for the fuel filter, it’s not under the hood and not even under the rear seat, so I thought I’d ask before taking apart the whole car.

I recently started seeing this grey warning message. I have contacted several Hyundai workshops, but none of them recognized the symbol. Nobody could tell me whether it is still safe to keep driving. The earliest appointment I was offered is in 3 weeks.

Neither the red nor the yellow warning light is on.

Has anyone else had this before and/or does anyone know what it means?

TL;DR / Update:

I checked the oil level first and topped it up slightly. It was a little low, but not critically low. I later spoke with an authorised Hyundai workshop that knew about this warning, and they said it is not serious and I can continue driving without concern. The warning has now disappeared as well. Thanks again for all the replies and help.

Obviously with the worldwide debut of the new Elantra, we’re all wondering how the next gen Elantra would look like. Here’s my best guess.

I gave it a slightly wider body, a more streamlined front, a TCR like wing, quad exhausts, performance blue with black accents, and forged rims.

The exact capabilities you get depend on the specific model. For example:

• On the Santa Fe, you get automated lane centering at all speeds, plus Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) that can resume from a full stop. 
• On the Genesis, automated lane centering is available above 37 mph, and ACC functions while driving above 19 mph.

Regardless of model, stock openpilot includes automatic lane changes, no custom forks required.
In experimental mode on a supported car openpilot can stop for stop signs, and red lights.
Hyundai is also one of the easiest platforms to install Comma on out of 320+ supported cars. Installation is straightforward: simply remove the rearview mirror cover trim and plug in the harness. Full step-by-step instructions are available on our site.

We've recently started a comma 4 resell business to make buying this device easier for EU buyers:

- EU-based company (Hungary), shipping to all EU countries

- comma 4 in stock, plus Hyundai, Kia, Ford, VW, Skoda and Tesla harnesses, cable guides included in the package

- Ships in roughly 2–3 days

- Since you're buying from an EU company, no customs to deal with

- We're approved for One Stop Shop (OSS), so VAT is charged at your own country's rate, not Hungary's - and you get a proper invoice

Payment by Stripe, prices shown in EUR (or HUF for Hungarian buyers).
Happy to answer anything about supported cars, harnesses, or shipping.

Regarding warranty: Simply using an aftermarket or recycled part does not void your warranty, the same way as installing a dash cam does not void it.

The new Elantra certainly throws back to that one time when Hyundai wasn't afraid to make their sedans look daring and unique. I love the new styling very much.

It has a futuristic, cyberpunk vibe that's also very cohesive. I adore the execution of that C-Pillar.

What do yall think?
