Elantra MD (2010-15) :: Small Rust Spot On The Hood Of Car

I got a small rust spot on a corner of the hood of my car (5 months old). The 3 year/36,000 mile paint warranty included with the purchase of the Elantra should take care of this, correct? It's small so I was gonna sand it down myself and use a touch-up pen, but now having second thoughts. Should I take it to the dealership instead?

Elantra HD (2006-10) :: Suspension Clunk Noise Occurs Going Over Small Bumps

Car has 170k kilometers , just over 100k miles on it; GL model so no sport suspension. Noise occurs going over small bumps.

Stabilizer links are the only front ends parts that were changed so far(12 months ago). Can't feel any play in tierods or ball joints, even the struts don't show signs of leakage and bounce test seems to show they are still okay.

Noise appears to come from front of car ; but I hate guessing and throwing money away. Fished a few large chunks of gravel trapped in subframe cross member around steering rack; no change.

Sonata NF (2006-10) :: 2007 - Clunk In The Front Suspension Making Noise While Going Over Small Speed Bumps

I have a 2007 Sonata Ltd (63000 miles) and had a clunk in the front suspension. I had the front upper control arms replaced (which were visually badly worn) and that fixed the problem. But now, a several months later another similar clunking noise has developed when I go over those small speed bumps in parking lots.

Elantra MD (2010-15) :: Front Suspension Clunk When Go Over A Large Bump In The Road

My wife and I bought a 2014 Elantra with 30,000 miles on it. This is our first Hyundai and the car runs great, but the only issue I have is that whenever I go over a large bump in the road, the front suspension clunks and feels like it's coming apart. Smaller bumps or imperfections in the road are okay and the car runs smoothly over those, but the larger bumps and potholes produce an unreassuring clunk.

We've never owned a Hyundai before and we really like the car, but I was wondering if this is normal for the Elantra and if others experience this. I brought the car to the dealer and they checked everything out. They said all was fine and that it was normal. Is it?

Elantra GD (2013+) :: Thunk Or Clunk Noise On Front End When Driving On Uneven Roads

I'm getting a "thunk" or "clunk" noise when driving over bumps/patched/uneven roads in my Elantra GT.

It's a hollow noise, I don't hear it unless I hit a bump/patch in the road. Doesn't have to be a large bump.

25k miles, Automatic Transmission. it almost seems to be one side (right) more than the other.

Is this a common issue for this model/year? What was the cause?

Elantra MD (2010-15) :: 2012 - Tap Clunk Type Noise When Shift The Auto Trans Into Drive And Reverse

For a few months now I have been hearing a tap clunk type noise coming from under the car when I shift the auto trans into drive and reverse. Also sometimes when the car is slowing when driving I hear the tap sound as it shifts into first. I drove in by my local dealer and they listened to it and said Elantra transmissions can get noisy there is nothing wrong. They told me I have plenty of Warranty left so if something happens I will be covered.

Elantra MD (2010-15) :: ABS Causing Brakes To Drag

Well my car is back at the dealer, again. Last week they replaced the brain for the ABS and everything on the right rear. Well driving up to and back from Redding, Ca.the brakes started dragging again on the right rear.

This time the rotor had a orage tint to it from the heat when I looked at it. The gas mileage sucks and now this. If I have to take it back for a 3rd time, I am getting rid of it.

I have a clunk/rattle in the drivers side front end when I go over a small bump at a slow speed. The dealer said it was the struts - they replaced them along with the upper support thing. Noise still there, next they said it was a worn motor mount - noise still there --

Elantra MD (2010-15) :: Accelerator Gas Pedal Sticking And Causing Engine To Rev Between Shifts

2012 Elantra - 105,000 miles 6 speed transmission

Throttle seems to be sticking and causing engine to rev between shifts, and staying slightly on after I let off the gas

Engine continues to rev up uncontrollably for about 10 seconds after feathering the gas pedal (between shifts). If I floor the gas pedal and release it quickly, it closes the throttle and fixes the issue.

Thought it may be a sticky throttle body, sprayed a generous amount of Carb and Choke cleaner into throttle body...did NOT resolve the issue. Its a Drive by wire, so no throttle cable to blame or to clean.

Turns out, the accelerator pedal assembly it self, is not returning/springing back to "up" or closed position and is sticking during the first few degrees of travel. It is very dirty, and gold.

How to clean/lubricate this thing? Its plastic. Or should I just order the replacement? I hope the pedal isn't programmed to the car itself? shouldn't be...but you never know

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: Small Electric Pump Noise Coming From Under The Hood On Shutdown

I have a '12 F250 w/ 6.7 diesel. Lately when I turn off the ignition after a few seconds I hear a noise that sounds like a small electric pump coming from under the hood on the passenger side.

This also happened a while back but at the time the service people said they could not get it to do that and it eventually stopped.

Elantra MD (2010-15) :: 2014 - Front End Growling Noise

Last week I heard my front end start growling and figured it was a bearing. I bought bearings and when I tore the front end down the left (driver) side felt fine when I had the knuckle out. I changed it anyhow. The right side felt kinda OK and I changed it. I've got a press and made sure not to press on the wrong parts. When I took it for a drive the noise is actually worse now. It's got all the standard bearing symptoms. It get louder the faster I drive and changes when I swerve back and forth. I put the car back on the jack and noticed I could wiggle the wheel a bit. I pulled the wheel and the spindle was able to wiggle. I figured maybe the axle nut was a little loose and I was able to get about 1 more turn on it. That took out the wiggle but the noise is still there. Did I get 2 bad bearings or did I do something wrong?

Elantra MD (2010-15) :: Rubbing Noise Faintly On The Front End

So we just noticed this, but it's NOT all the time. It almost sounds like something is rubbing VERY faintly on the front drivers side tire; but I've looked ALL around.

We thought/think that when they tinted the windows, they may have dropped something in the drivers side door, and THAT'S what we hear sliding back/forth.

It's just so random, that I can't TRY to replicate the noise. We also were thinking it may be the ABS system kicking in on a rough road?

I looked at that brake rotor and the wear pattern looks PERFECT (crosshatched marks)...

Elantra MD (2010-15) :: 2011 GLS - Noise From Right Front Wheel

So I have a 2011 Elantra GLS with just over 20,000mi on it. I noticed today when I make a sharp left turn there is a grinding noise from the passenger front wheel. Almost sounds like the rotors are grinding on the shields. I am going to the dealer in two days to have it looked at, This is the only situation where I hear the noise.

Elantra MD (2010-15) :: Grinding Noise Comes And Goes - Front Wheel Grumbling

Tonight it was a perfect 72 degrees and I had to run over to a friend's house and pick up my backpack as I didn't feel like riding my bike the ten miles home with that thing on my back. As I usually do when it's nice outside, I opened both front windows and the sunroof and immediately noticed a mid-level pitch grinding noise that comes and goes but is mostly noticeable at low speeds. Initially I thought it was the brakes dragging but it doesn't change with a brake application so I'm guessing it's the front wheel bearings. I'm calling the dealer in the morning to set up a service appointment.

Elantra MD (2010-15) :: 2011 - Clunking Noise In Front Suspension

I have been frustrated with my Elantra's handling from the time I purchased. I feel that the car is setup poorly and has design/OEM part issues.

I have improved the rear-end "hop" issue by replacing the OEM rear shocks with the KYB Gas-A-Just's -- a big improvement in handling the bumps. But the rear-end solid axle on such a light car is just crap...

I have developed quite a bit of 'clunking' noise in the front suspension.

I am considering replacing the front-end shock-strut assemblies with KYBs -- I'd love to hear if it made a big difference. Also wondering if I should change-out the 'sway bar link' while replacing the shock/struts.

I'm just so frustrated with the way this car handles (I've driven Subaru's, Honda's, and VW's) compared to other cars. I feel it's a combination of low-quality OEM suspension parts, rear solid axle, light weight, crappy electric steering settings, and tires that are too wide and too low-profile for such a light car. (I have the limited with 17 wheels).

Elantra MD (2010-15) :: 2012 - Creaking / Clunking Noise At Front End

Driving 2012 Elantra with 29K on the Meter in AZ with temps at 105 degrees. I am getting a clicking clunking noise. Dealership said Strut mounts and replaced them. Drove it off the lot and the noise was still there. Wont go back to that dealership. Creaking clunking noise more frequently now and has shifted from the passenger side to the driver side predominantly. End links? Axles? Brake assembly, Hub? I first heard it when I went over a speed bump at 3-5 mph. Now it can be heard upon acceleration-deceleration, deceleration in neutral with brake only gets the loudest clunk on the Driver side. Ultimately its now constant on turns, bumps, rough roads & even smooth roads while changing lanes. What is causing this.
