Owner Complaints (3)
Your vehicle's brakes and emergency brake failed completely without warning, causing you to lose the ability to stop and resulting in a collision. The dealership inspection found no issues and couldn't reproduce the problem, but you discovered technical service bulletins from Hyundai describing the exact brake failure symptoms you experienced. The dealership did not inform you of these known issues or apply the recommended fixes, leaving the safety problem potentially unresolved.

While driving highway speeds (65mph-75mph) the emergency braking system randomly activated causing my car to slow to almost a halt and swerve itself in the middle of the highway almost causing multiple accidents. It has happened 2-3 times over the past 2-3 months. Brought to a dealer and it could not be "duplicated" so I was sent on my way worried about this car.
I bought my brand new 2022 Elantra in July of 2021, the only problem I have experienced is the brakes make a sort of wailing noise. It's not a screeching noise as if the brakes need to be changed or that the rotors are worn or brake pads are low. It is not a sound I've heard brake make before and it typically makes the sound when in reverse and slow speeds. I was a mechanic in the United States Air Force for 16 year so I know a lot about mechanical issues so a year old car certainly shouldn't be making these kinds of sounds.
