1. Coolant hose leaked into the engine causing the engine to smoke and head gasket to be blown. Available for inspection upon request until I sell the vehicle since I need a vehicle for work. 2. The engine failure could have occurred on a roadway, and the coolant in the engine could have combusted further. When the engine is on, you can smell smoke. 3. The problem was confirmed by an auto shop and they recommended that the Hyundai dealership perform a repair. 4. The component has not been inspected by anyone other than two auto shops at this time, who both confirmed that either the head gasket could be replaced as an attempted fix, but that the issue could remain/become worse if the entire engine is not replaced. 5. Check engine light came on, checked codes at a shop within 10 minutes - only code present was an engine thermometer. Drove 20 minutes home. Drove to shop in AM. Shop described issue and recommended taking it to dealership for repair. Drove home and engine was riding rough, and began to smoke. I have done research online and communities online refer to this as "sudden engine death" and an issue that occurs often with this make and year of vehicle.

Car randomly shuts off while idling. Will restart, but will not go past 10 mph leaving me either stranded in the middle of the road or causing me to pull over in unsafe areas. When restarting, engine is very hesitant. Car will be very shaky so I have to keep the car off for about 5 minutes before I restart the car. At that time the check engine light will turn on, as well as the wheel alignment and the battery.

I dropped my 2013 Hyundai Elantra Limited off on 4/3/23 for an oil change and to diagnosis and repair my engine stalling and engine boggling and repair headlight restoration. When I picked up my car I was told that they found metal shaving in my oil and on the oil dip stick and that I would need a new engine. Might I add, I don't have any lights blinking or remaining on such as my oil, engine, etc. I have kept up with all my maintenance over the years and have had my car service when it was due. While driving my car, it'll lose power and jerk forward. Other times, the car will start up with no RPMs registering while the car is moving up to 60 miles. The car has also displaced the sluggish barely moving forward action when the car's RPMs are not registering. The car back fires and putts along and during a traffic lights or stop sign the car will shut off. It even started shutting off while back-up into my parking space. There is clearly something wrong with these engines and should be covered under the manufacturer warranty. I am still in disbelief about my vehicle and have been getting the run around from a couple different Hyundai dealerships saying my particular engine was discontinued and I should check with the service department to see if my car qualifies for the manufacturer warranty repair but no one will answer the phone so I decided to call another dealership well outside my area for service. This car is by far DANGEROUS to drive and without having any codes generated or light indicators advising me of an engine issue is extremely upsetting. I use my vehicle to take my mother to her many doctor appointments, my grandson to various places and I use the car to get to and from work each day. Well before all of these issues, my break lights and some other lights in the rear continued to blow and had to be replaced and no one said anything about there being an issue and I did not have the appropriate direction to submit an issue.

Catastrophic engine failure at 75k miles due to metal shavings in oil. Had a recent oil change, had no engine light come on or any issues beforehand. I was driving on the highway when my 2013 Hyundai Elantra started to not accelerate until stalling. I couldn-??t pull over at the time of it starting due to construction blocking off any pull off side lane. Luckily was able to have it roll until a safer area to pull off highway, but if it had stalled completely when it started I would of been stranded on a highway with limited room for cars to go around due to construction. When it did stall out I had to put it in neutral and physically push it into a parking lot after it gave up at a busy 4 way stop light. Towed to shop where they reported issues with the bearings and piston causing metal shavings in oil. Engine replacement required. Called dealership, denied warranty to replace engine.

I have taken my 2013 Hyundai Elantra to 2 different shops where they have both informed me that the engine knock that is occuring is a known issue with this make and model. Unfortunately, it was brought to my attention that my VIN is not part of that recall. I am hoping to have my vehicle included in recall number TXXM warranty. My vehicle has approximately 92,700 miles on it. Thank you for your consideration Amanda Maldonado 720-876-8289

I have replaced the lights and battery many times and something keeps draining it. The outside brake lights sometimes stay on. So does the front running lights. The car sometimes wants to stall and when I press on the gas pedal it finally catches but still seems like it is going to shut down. The steering column has a really bad clicking in it and doesn-??t seem to be tight anymore.

- Chapin, SC, USA

Vehicle randomly stalls without warning due to a manufacturer defect commonly known as Hyundai piston slap. The car stalled on me on the expressway 4 times on a single trip causing a potentially very dangerous situation. No engine warning lights before or after the stall. The vehicle was inspected by my local Hyundai service shop and the fix is to replace the small block. Hyundai is well aware of this issue with these vehicles.

- Mokena, IL, USA

Engine failure diagnosed on 2013 Elantra GT at 47,000 miles. No warning light only a ticking sound and in the original lawsuit however my state does not qualify in Nevada for a replacement. Thousands have failed per the lawsuit yet Hyundai appears to be denying claims left and right and many other types, years and models were excluded based on where you live. The lawsuit was a mere band aid with many loopholes that all Hyundai to deny claims and have customers driving in a vehicle that can stall any minute and cause bodily harm or death. Hyundai is keenly aware and I was told by dealership to have my towed in, but no way they will approve it. I am out of pocket $10,000 cash for a car that likely ends up being sold for scrap. Why on earth is your agency allowing this madness to continue? Every single Hyundai that an engine fails in involved in this lawsuit should be replaced or eligible for a buy back but that is not what is happening.

First engine replaced at ~ 60,000 miles under warranty by Hyundai due to bad bearings. My current engine, now at ~ 118,000 miles is exhibiting the same symptoms as the first engine, i.e., knocking and a burnt oil smell. Hyundai tested the engine and once again, determined via testing the bearings are bad again but now claiming they are not responsible for replacing the second engine under warranty. I've seen many reports and have spoken with personal contacts about Hyundai/Kia engines suffering catastrophic damage sometimes resulting in fires. I have three kids who regularly ride in this vehicle and so as a parent, I am concerned for their safety but also that Hyundai seems to be evading their responsibilities as it relates to the product warranty and the safety requirements of the NHTSA. No warning lamps or other vehicle indicators directed me towards this problem. Instead, I can hear the issue which prompted me to perform an independent oil analysis followed by a visit to the Hyundai dealership for an inspection. Now, it appears that I will be stuck with a defective, fire prone engine, that I may incorrectly become my financially responsibility to amend. If so, why should I expect this third engine, or the fourth, or the tenth to be any different or more safe. Thank you from a very concerned father and husband with extremely high mechanical aptitude.

My car tends to shut off on its own while driving. I-??ve fixed the fuel pump thinking that can be the issue due to the car passing -??green-?? on the machine stating everything is good. No lights on my dashboard, engine tends to shake. RPM arrow is all over the place. The car is well taken care of. I-??m spending a lot of money on mechanics fixing things that clearly aren-??t the issue with the vehicle.

I started my car and the engine took a moment to turn on, then when I was at a stop light the car started to shake and then turned off. I then turner the car back on and the engine light came on, the car continued to shake and I tried accelerating. When I did I had to push the gas all the way down to go fast, the car slowly got up to a speed of 40 mph and that was all. I made it to a body shop and they told me it was a crankshaft sensor issue. The safety of myself was in question since I needed to accelerate and intermittent stalling of the car was happening. I was shaking hoping I would get to my destination.

This is about the 3rd time I had to change my battery sensor since I brought the car. The battery leaks erosion and messes up the sensor. The car won-??t start, lock and anything. I-??m consistently replacing the battery and sensor.

All warning lights will come on the car usually when car is stopped at a stopped sign or light. Car will not be able to move but air is still on and radio is still on. If car is then turned off and then turned back on, no lights will appear and car will drive normally. Car also will start gliding like it has lost power. Usually putting the car in park and then in drive will correct the issue but not warning lights will come on.

The contact owns a 2013 Hyundai Elantra. The contact stated while driving 20-30 MPH, the vehicle emitted abnormal loud clicking sounds. There was no warning light illuminated. The contact continued driving to her destination and parked the vehicle. However, while restarting the vehicle, the vehicle started after the second attempt. The contact was able to drive the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer where it was diagnosed that the engine needed to be replaced. The dealer sent a claim to the manufacturer for assistance with repairing the vehicle but the claim was denied. The vehicle was not repaired. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who provided the same diagnostic report. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure but provided no assistance. The failure mileage was approximately 120,000.

In March of 2022 I took my car to have its regularly scheduled oil change at Mellow Motors and while I was there the service technician recommended I make a follow up appointment with the Hyundai dealership due to irregularities he noticed in the engine. I took my car to the dealership and dropped it off hoping this would be a minor concern that would be resolved quickly. When Hyundai initially contacted me that they would need to do a more thorough evaluation/diagnosis, I was surprised and concerned that something more significant may be wrong with the engine as the car was relatively new (previously garaged and serviced every 6 months), had low miles (54,000 miles), and had been taken care of extremely well since it was purchased new off the lot by my grandparents. When I started gresearching engine concerns in Hyundai Elantra-??s 2013, I was even more surprised to find that engine issues were actually not uncommon in this year of Hyundai Elantras, and the issue known as "piston slap" not only lead to total engine failure, but could develop for no discernible reason, and was so common Hyudai had settled a class action lawsuit related to the matter instead of facing a recall on these vehicles. I found out I missed the date to file a claim by 8 months. Despite learning this, given the circumstances of the engine diagnosis (-??Started vehicle found piston slap noise. Found scuffing on all four cylinder walls. As per TSN replacement of block assembly and necessary component required-??) and learning that my car was included in the settlement, I figured Hyundai would offer to fix my engine under the settlements extended warranty clause to ensure their cars to ensure safety, or at the very least, offer to partially pay for the engine replacement, but I have been denied coverage for this engine concern. I think this is a very significant safety concern and that this year of Hyundai Elantra's should be recalled and replaced.
