DRIVER DOOR WHEN IT IS UNLOCKING WE CANNOT OPEN IT FROM THE OUTSIDE. THE REAR PASSENGER DOOR DOES NOT OPEN AT ALL. IT HASN'T OPENED IN A FEW MONTHS. I DON'T USE THE BACK OF THE CAR BEING AS IT'S JUST ME AND MY HUSBAND. TODAY WE TOOK MY IN-LAWS TO THE STORE AND MY FATHER IN LAW COULDN'T BUCKLE BECAUSE THE THING THAT HOLDS THE SEAT BELT WAS LOCKED DOWNWARD AND WOULD NOT LATCH.

PUCHASE MY ELANTRA IN JUNE 2017, WHEN IT RAIN OR FIRST THING IN THE AM THE BRAKES WILL MAKE A SOUND LIKE I NEED NEW BREAKS AND LIKE THE ROTOR NEED REPLACED. I TOOK IT IN AND THEY SAID EVERYTHING WAS FIND. ONE YEAR LATER STILL HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. THE SEATBELT LIGHT COMES ON AND CONTINUES TO BEEP WITH NO ONE SITTING IN THE SEAT AND THE ONLY WAY I CAN GET IT TO GO OFF IS TO SNAP THE SEATBELT. SOMETIMES I HAVE ACCESS TO MY BLUETOOTH PHONE AND SOMETIMES IT DOESN'T WORK OR THE DISPLAY IS NOT ACCESSIBLE

THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH MY 2017 ELANTRA THE DEALERSHIP CANNOT DIAGNOSE OR REPAIR. THE FRONT PASSENGER SEATBELT ALARM AND WARNING LIGHT IS OFTEN ENABLED WHEN NO ONE OR NOTHING IS IN THE SEAT. THE ONLY WAY TO DISABLE THE ALARM IS TO BUCKLE THE SEATBELT. I AM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THIS BECAUSE THE SEATBELT MAY FAIL WHEN IT IS NEEDED. I AM NOT HAPPY KNOWING THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE CAR THE DEALERSHIP CANNOT REPAIR. I DON'T FEEL SAFE IN THE CAR BECAUSE I AM NOT CONFIDANT THE SEATBELTS ARE PROPERLY WORKING. #ELANTRAGHOSTRIDER #HYUNDAIGHOSTRIDER

Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers.
