problem #1

Elantra GT GLS 2.0L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 74,565 miles

I have had a few cars but never have been completely disappointed! This car was well maintained and should have not failed. I read all the same issues we all have. My car started clicking loud first when I would turn it off. While driving on the highway I had almost completely lost control, with almost no power. I had to literally roll to the side of the road and get a tow.

I am reading the same issues with these motors and it should be recalled, period. Hyundai lost a customer for life and I will pursue this until not one person buys this model again. Cars with care should last well over 200 k, with no excuses!

Shame on Hyundai!
