2015 Hyundai Elantra gt problems
The Hyundai Elantra, also known as the Hyundai Avante (Korean: 현대 아반떼), is a compact car produced by the South Korean manufacturer Hyundai since 1990. The Elantra was initially marketed as the Lantra in Australia and some European markets. In Australia, this was due to the similarly named Mitsubishi Magna Elante model; similarly, in other markets, the name Avante is not used due to its similarity with Audi's "Avant" designation, which is used for their line-up of station wagons. The name was standardized as "Elantra" worldwide in 2001 (except in South Korea and Singapore).
First generation (J1; 1990)
The Elantra (codename J1) was launched in October 1990, and received a mid-term facelift in 1993.
It was sold in Europe from the spring of 1991. It replaced the somewhat larger on the outside Stellar, although that model had not been offered in many markets. The Elantra competed with the likes of the Ford Sierra and Vauxhall Cavalier/Opel Vectra, but at a considerably lower price.
The Elantra was powered by a Mitsubishi-designed 1.6 L (1595 cc) straight-four. This DOHC 16-valve 1.6 L unit produced 113 PS (83 kW) at 6000 rpm and could push the Elantra to 60 mph (97 km/h) in 9.5 seconds. The quarter-mile (0.4 km) run took 17.1 seconds and produced 129 km/h (80 mph). Top speed was 187 km/h (116 mph). The Elantra got 22 mpg‑US (11 L/100 km) in the city cycle. Starting in 1993 a Mitsubishi-designed 1.8 L (1836 cc) inline-four option was available; this unit produces 135 PS (99 kW) at 6000 rpm and replaced the twin-cam 1.6 in the home market.

Car will also stall while stuck in in a high gear at a stop I can turn off the vehicle and start it and it will reset the car to normal. It will drive fine for a while. Randomly this will happen. From my research I found this is a common problem with many different model years of Hyundai's . Most people say the solution is a new crankshaft sensor . When I ran a diagnostics There are no error codes for this problem. Many other individuals with this problem have said the same from many different online forums I have read. Other individuals I've said they were also stuck in the high gear at a stop and did not know until they accelerated. Some have been in accidents because of this issue.

POWER TRAIN,ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,ENGINE PROBLEM
- Date Of Incident: 2024-06-27
- VIN: KMHDH4AE5FU
- Components: POWER TRAIN,ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,ENGINE
- Summary: Due to CDK Global cyberattack, I cannot complete my safety recall of my Hyundai Elantra 2015 (ABS Fuse that can cause engine to explode, according to Hyundai safety recall report). Hyundai does not allow dealerships to keep safety recall parts on hand (or a very small amount). I have to walk into the dealership to order the part. I cannot call to order the part. I have to constantly drive to place of work, home, sit in traffic, with a defective fuse that HyundaiUSA refuses to keep safety recall parts on hand. Please create a NATIONAL policy against manufacturers to have a minimum units (1000 units of fuses, parts, etc) as the safety recall occurs. Because dealerships cannot order parts due to this cyberattack. My mental anguish of driving a vehicle that cannot have a safety recall repaired due to parts not being able to order (especially if they can keep large amounts of units on hand at dealers), is through the roof! I cannot take time off, I have to drive to not be evicted, anything repossessed, etc. and where I live has limited transportation options, (and told to use ride share like Lyft or Uber). Insurance companies is unhelpful. If manufacturers say they cannot keep parts on hand, then how do they ship the parts so quickly, under normal operations? 3rd party mechanic shops cannot order these parts as the manufacturer has to complete the recall repair.
UNKNOWN OR OTHER,ENGINE PROBLEM
- Date Of Incident: 2024-06-19
- VIN: KMHD35LH9FU
- Components: UNKNOWN OR OTHER,ENGINE

SERVICE BRAKES PROBLEM
- Date Of Incident: 2024-06-21
- VIN: 5NPDH4AE5FH
- Components: SERVICE BRAKES
- Summary: I received a notice in the mail of the recall from Hyuandai. I set an appt with Dick Smith Hyandai in Greenville, SC and when I arrived they said they could not do any recall work at the moment due to issues with their computer system and that I should call them again in a few weeks.
STRUCTURE PROBLEM
- Date Of Incident: 2023-08-03
- VIN: 5NPDH4AE2FH
- Components: STRUCTURE
- Summary: i received a Manufacturer's Service Campaign 984 Notice from Hyundai. I made an appointment for a treatment of an underbody cavity wax and undercoating spray to prevent corrosion at King Hyundai in Deerfield Beach, FL, the closest dealer. When I arrived at the dealership I was informed that the correction could not be made because Hyundai did not supply Florida dealers with the needed products. I explained that the vehicle had been used for three years in the Washington DC area and then relocated to Florida. I called Hyundai Customer Car Center at 1-855-371-9460 and was advised that Hyundai did not supply the needed products to any state that did not experience winter weather; I believe she said that was a total of 16 states. As I received a recall notice at my Florida address, please explain why Hyundai is exempt from the recall issued in accordance with federal law.
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,UNKNOWN OR OTHER,ENGINE PROBLEM
- Date Of Incident: 2024-05-27
- VIN: KMHDH4AH9FU
- Components: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,UNKNOWN OR OTHER,ENGINE
- Summary: Within three months of purchasing this vehicle, I started having engine light and oil consumption issues. Within the 4 years of owning, they've replaced the catalytic converter twice, many valves, and others. I had to purchase and add multiple quarts of oil to just maintain oil levels. I've had multiple occasions where my vehicle slowed to only up to 55 miles an hour while on the interstate. The vehicle had issues accelerating where an accident almost occurred because pulling into a shopping plaza, the vehicle couldn't drive up a minor hill and almost remained in the intersection. I've had multiple times where I was stuck on the side of the road in different environments, a few of which I was genuinely worried for my safety. This last incident I did not feel safe to drive where I needed to go so I got off the interstate to travel down a local road where the vehicle stalled in the middle of a 5 lane (one direction) busy road. The vehicle has been inspected by the dealership and warranty representatives. The engine and oil lights were the main issues, every time a light came on I reached out to the dealership to get it looked at. I received notice of many engines being recalled and repaired in 2022 yet Hyundai has only put bandaids on my engine.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL,ENGINE PROBLEM
- Date Of Incident: 2024-04-16
- VIN: 5NPDH4AE6FH
- Components: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL,ENGINE
- Summary: Reporting my previous VIN in case it helps the new vehicle owner since I am sure they are facing similar defects that I am with my "brand new 2016 Hyundai Elantra". I previously owned a brand new 2015 Hyundai Elantra and had to file a claim after flooding occurred in Kyle, Texas. The 2015 Elantra title was transferred to USAA after filing a claim for TOTAL LOSS due to engine flooding on [XXX]. Odometer reading on date of total loss is 7,673 miles. Vehicle appears to be sold again with same odometer reading January 2016. Both of my Hyundai Elantra's were purchased at Ron Carter Hyundai Dealership in Texas (Dealer number P113588). This dealership is now called Big Star Hyundai after DCG Acquisitions represented the sale in 2021 - just in time to deny and delay warranty covered defects to consumers who thought they purchased a brand new car. Hope this helps the current vehicle owner in case they are also over spending on dealership recommended "repairs" for their LEMON.

SERVICE BRAKES,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE PROBLEM
- Date Of Incident: 2024-04-13
- VIN: 5NPDH4AE4FH
- Components: SERVICE BRAKES,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE
- Summary: I am submitting this complaint because in the fall of last year 2023, I received a recall notice in the mail from Hyundai advising me of a safety recall with the ABS Module and risk of fire. As of today, the manufacturer has not made any efforts to remedy this issue and I am advised to park my vehicle away from structures to avoid fire. In order to keep myself and family safe I park my vehicle on the street in front of my home, but will not be able to continue doing this for much longer. Because of HOA regulations I will be fined if I continue to park my car on the street and will be forced to park in my driveway or garage. This has caused major inconveniences in my life as well as the worry that my car could become a risk to myself or others due to this safety recall. I do not believe that Hyundai has taken the appropriate measures to resolve the issue. I would like further investigation to insure the manufacturer does the right thing to protect not only myself, but other consumers who are affected by the recall. I contacted Hyundai on [XXX], received an apology; however I was not given an estimate of when they will have a resolution available. This is an unacceptable response after 6-7 months without communication from Hyundai. Reference number of call # [XXX].

UNKNOWN OR OTHER PROBLEM
- Date Of Incident: 2023-09-23
- VIN: KMHDH4AHXFU
- Components: UNKNOWN OR OTHER
- Summary: Unknown. Why is NHTSA giving Hyundai such slack? It has been well over six months since Hyundai has alerted us of the safety recall, but has to yet to act on recall 251. They say the car would be safer outside, but many of us who live in high rises don’t have that luxury as our multi-level garages are either attached to or beneath the living units. Hyundai should be compelled to act right away, or buy their cars back. NHTSA should act immediately.

Positive 2015 Hyundai Elantra gt car reviews

I test drove almost every hatchback available in the market, except for the Kia Forte 5 and Dodge Caliber, before I decided to purchase this car. This car was my top choice, even after driving other popular models such as the Mazda 3, Subaru Impreza, and VW Golf. The front seats and steering wheel are extremely comfortable, the car has a stylish and smart interior design, and it comes with a surprising number of luxury features as standard, such as heated seats and fog lights. The layout of everything makes sense, and the car felt immediately intuitive to drive, as if I had been driving it for years. Although I do have some minor gripes with the car, such as the back windshield cleaner not working that well, the gas mileage being poorer than I would like (but not as bad as the rating), and the radio's sound quality not being great, the acceleration and braking are also not as strong as cars like the Ford Focus or Mazda 3. However, knowing what I know now, I would still buy this car again.

I love this car! It's comfortable, sporty, quiet, and affordable.

Hi there! This is my 3rd review of my 2014 Elantra GT, manual. I still think this is a great car, and I've had it for a year and a half now. I wonder why there aren't more of them on the road? The gas mileage is low 30s at best, maybe that's why. However, I still think it's up there with the Mazda3, but I do miss the driving dynamics of a Mazda. I'm tempted to trade it/sell it for a new Mazda3 hatchback, but this car has everything I want, so I'm thinking it would be silly to unload it with less than 20,000 miles on the odometer. Maybe in a year or two after I have another 20K on it. I've had no mechanical problems with this Elantra GT and certainly don't anticipate any in the next several years. It seems to be very well built. Thanks for reading!

You'll love driving this car, and it gets great gas mileage!
-
I leased this car because I got a great deal, but I'll probably end up buying it at the end of the lease. The gas mileage is awesome - I always drive in ECO mode and consistently get at least 36 mpg. I don't go over the speed limit and I don't 'rabbit' start my car, which makes a big difference in the gas mileage. The interior is roomy and very comfortable, although it doesn't have as much space as my old 2005 Toyota Matrix. I love the Bluetooth option - I'll never go without it again. The car has plenty of speed and power, and I'm looking forward to seeing how it does in the snow.

Raven Schinner 2025-01-05
I had a negative experience with a Hyundai car that did not last for the full 5 year financing period. Unfortunately, the motor stopped working after only 4 and a half years, and the manufacturer was unable to assist me. Despite regularly changing the oil every 5k miles, a mechanic informed me that someone else had experienced a similar issue and referred to the cars as 'trash'. It is important to note that there have been recalls on motors. I ultimately decided to purchase a Toyota and have been satisfied with my decision. While I have been working on my own car for 40 years, I unfortunately cannot recommend purchasing a Hyundai due to my personal experience and the lack of support from the manufacturer.
Seamus Olson 2024-11-29
The 2014 Elantra GT with 25,000 miles has experienced significant wear and tear on the front brake inner pads, resulting in metal exposure and badly scored inner rotors. Surprisingly, the outer pads and rotors have not even worn 50%. Despite this, Gerald Hyundai in North Aurora, IL has refused to cover the issue, citing insufficient driving as the cause. It is disappointing to see that some Hyundai dealers do not stand behind the products they sell. It is worth noting that many other Elantra drivers have reported similar issues and have been given the same unsatisfactory response.
Tevin Cassin 2024-10-12
I would highly recommend considering other options before purchasing this car. Unfortunately, I have had a number of issues with it, including problems with the transmission, motor, clutch, and ecu. Despite having had a significant amount of work done on it, the car still requires further repairs. In my experience, the local Hyundai dealer and the manufacturer have not been helpful in resolving these issues. If you are looking for a reliable car, I would suggest considering a Honda instead. Thank you for considering my experience.
Frederik Renner 2024-09-25
This was a great little car until one day the motor seized. No warning. Oil changes were done on a regular basis. However, there is a known problem with these cars. It's best to avoid them if possible. We were lucky that we had the motor replaced 100% paid for by Hyundai, but many owners are not so fortunate. I recommend looking it up.
Saige Abernathy 2024-05-19
I understand your frustration, but I would like to offer a different perspective. While Hyundai cars may not be the most expensive on the market, they are still reliable and offer great value for their price. I encourage you to consider all of your options before making a final decision. Thank you for sharing your thoughts with me.
