New York Auto Show, 2024: Hyundai Elantra

The Hyundai Elantra, now in its seventh generation, is a no-nonsense compact sedan for the many people in America who still want one but are stuck with only SUVs to choose from. Credit Hyundai for still meeting demands of a forgotten market segment. And with a base price of $21,625, the 2024 Elantra is a steal.

The Elantra has a base 1.6-liter four with an optional two-liter four, mated to a seven-speed continuous variable automatic transmission.

DEFECT #3 - SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:SWITCHES:BRAKE LIGHT


Posted on: 2016-08-02
Description
Hyundai motor america (hyundai) is recalling certain model 2013 elantra vehicles manufactured december 1, 2012, to april 30, 2013.  The brake pedal stopper pad can deteriorate allowing the brake light switch plunger to remain extended when the brake pedal is released.
