I HAVE READ MANY OF THE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE HYUNDAI. I'VE ELIMINATED PRACTICALLY ALL THE SAME COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE ENGINE PERFORMANCE BY TUNING THE ENGINE EVERY 30 TO 35 THOUSAND MILES. THE GAS MILEAGE AND PERFORMANCE HAS BEEN VERY ACCEPTABLE. YES I TOO HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE MANIFOLD, MAS AIR SENSOR, AND OTHER SMALL MAINTENANCE PARTS. THE ONLY THING I HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO REPAIR IS WHEN I'M SETTING AT A STOP AND IDLING, THE ENGINE TENDS TO OVERHEAT. BUT WHEN I BEGAN TO DRIVE IT QUICKLY COOLS BACK DOWN. MY HYUNDAI NOW HAS APPROXIMATELY 230,000 MILES AND IS STILL IN SERVICE BUT STILL OVERHEATS. ANY SUGGESTIONS? *TR

I TOOK MY 1999 HYUNDAI ELANTRA IN TO OBRIEN AUTO PARK IN FORT MYERS SERVICE CENTER TO GET LOOKED AT AND FIXED. I HAD TROUBLE CODES THAT I HAD CHECKED PRIOR GOING THERE AT AUTOZONE THAT WERE CODES PO747, PO743, PO442. THE FIRST TO ARE CODES INVOLVING MY AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. I VIEWED ON YOUR WEBSITE THAT THERE WERE RECALLS ON THE PRESSURE CONTROL SOLENOID THAT INVOLVED CODE PO747 WHICH STATES IT WAS IN THE STUCK ON POSITION! I TOLD THE SERVICE MANAGER ALL OF THIS THERE AND HE TOLD ME THERE WERE NO RECALLS ON THE SOLENOID AND THAT HE COULDN'T DO ANYTHING FOR ME! I HAD 2 OTHER CODES THAT WERE, PO732, AND PO734 PERTAINING TO THE 2ND AND 4TH GEAR RATIO BEING INCORRECT! I EXPLAINED THAT AT FIRST THERE WAS A ELECTRICAL ISSUE WHICH CHANGE THE CODES TO THE STATE IT'S IN NOW AND HE TOLD ME WE'LL LOOK AT IT AND CALL YOU WHEN WE FIND OUT ANYTHING. I SAID OK, HE CALLED A FEW HOURS LATER AND TOLD ME THE SERVICE TECH SAID I NEEDED A NEW TRANSMISSION. I SAID NO, I AM NOT AN IDIOT! THERE WAS AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM AND THIS IS WHY I BROUGHT IT IN. HE STATED TO ME THAT, HE COULD NOT GO BY THE CODES I HAD FROM AUTOZONE BECAUSE THEY WERE GENERIC CODES AND HYUNDAI WOULDN'T EXCEPT THEM. MY ONLY OPTION WAS TO HAVE THE TRANSMISSION REPLACED. THIS GUY IS LYING AND I KNOW IT! EVEN THE GUY AT AUTOZONE TOLD ME IT WAS A ELECTRICAL MALFUNCTION CAUSED BY THE SOLENOID!!! PLEASE HELP. NOW I AM OUT OF WORK 2 DAYS NOW AND EVEN MAY LOOSE MY JOB OVER THIS! NOTHING WAS DONE TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM AND I WOULD NEVER BUY A HYUNDAI AGAIN!!!!!!!! *JB

I BOUGHT THE CAR BRAND NEW. AFTER ABOUT 8 MONTHS THE CAR WOULD GET STUCK IN SECOND GEAR WHEN SLOW DOWN. THE CAR ALSO KICKS VERY HARD WHILE IT DOES THIS. ONE TIME I WAS ROUNDING A TURN AFTER IT RAINED AND AS I SLOWED DOWN AROUND THE CORNER THE CAR KICKED AND THE REAR END OF THE CAR SLID OUT INTO THE PLASTIC DIVIDER POLES BETWEEN THE LANES. THE POLES CAUSED A DING IN THE CAR AN CRACKED A WINDOW. AT THE TIME IT HAPPENED SO FAST I THOUGHT I HAD HIT SOMETHING AND ONLY A WEEK LATER WHEN THE CAR KICKED AGAIN DID I REALIZE THAT WAS PROBABLY WHAT HAPPENED. I BROUGHT THE CAR DOWN TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD I WOULD BE GIVEN A NEW PULSE GENERATOR UNDER WARRANTY. THEN THERE WAS A RECALL ON A PART IN THE TRANSMISSION AND THAT WAS FIXED. THE PROBLEM STILL PERSISTED AND I HAVE HAD THE PULSE GENERATOR CHANGED FOUR MORE TIMES. MY WARRANTY IS NOW UP AND THE PROBLEM HAS COME BACK. I HAVE EVEN INSTALLED A BRAND KNEW TRANSMISSION. *JB

I PURCHASE MY CAR A 1999 HYUNDAI ELANTRA, SEPT 0F 1999, SINCE THE PURCHASE OF THIS CAR I'VE HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE CAR NOT ACCELERATING WHEN PRESSING ON THE ACCELERATOR AND THE CAR DECELERATING WHILE DRIVING, I'VE CONTACTED HYUNDAI NUMEROUS TIMES OVER THE PAST 4 YEARS AND HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO GET HYUNDAI TO FIX THIS PROBLEM EVEN THOUGH I'VE TOLD THEM ABOUT THE RECALL NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER 99V178000, THEY REFUSE TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT MY CAR SHOULD HAVE BEEN PART OF THIS RECALL, EVEN AFTER TELLING HYUNDAI MY CAR IS EXPERIENCING ALL THE PROBLEMS MENTION IN THIS RECALL, I INFORMED HYNUDAI THAT THIS PROBLEM IS PUTTING MY FAMILIES LIFE AT RISK, AND THIS PROBLEM IS NOW ACCURRING EVERY TIME I DRIVE. I DONE ALL THE THINGS HYUNDAI RECOMMENDED WHICH WAS HAVING A DIAGNOSTIC, WHICH SO FAR I'VE HAD 2 DONE, AND GETTTING A COMPLETE TUNE-UP, THE PROBLEM IS STILL THERE .AFTER THE FIRST DIAGNOTIC I WAS TOLD THAT THE COMPUTER RESET ITSELF, SO THAT NOW NO PROBLEM SHOWS, AND THEY CLAIM THEY CANNOT GO IN AND CHECK WITHOUT THE DIAGNOSTIC SHOWING A PROBLEM, I THINK THIS IS A DESPECTIVE PRACTICE SINCE THE COMPUTER RESETTING NOW HIDES ANY PRE-EXTISTING PROBLEMS.
