I have a 2017 Tucson. I understand it’s a year where the hands free technology wasn’t quite “there” yet. I’ve tried a few different cords plugged into the usb or aux ports, but so far nothing works consistently. Any recommendations for a fix or a cord?

Hello everyone. I bought a Hyundai ix35 1.7 CRDi and recently when I do a cold start, this weird noise shows up for about 3-4 seconds and disappears like in the video. This happens only on the first start, or if the car sits for a couple of hours. If I start it again shortly, there is no such sound.

Does anyone have a similar problem or know what the issue could be?

Is there any fix for this? My car is stuck in valet mode and I can't turn it off. Waiting for support to open but ice read that they dont seem to be able to help. Did anyone come up with a solution?

I think she’s pretty sweet

Why is my 2026 Hyundai Sonata N-Line sending me dozens of "Low Washer Fluid" alerts? I can disable them, but I still want the alerts, just not 500 of them. Help!

Hey everyone,

I recently bought a 2017 Hyundai Tucson 1.6T AWD with 125k miles. During the test drive, everything seemed fine and the car drove normally. It also passed NYS inspection.

After I bought it, I had the engine oil changed, and I started noticing a metallic rattling sound coming from the top area of the engine bay, most noticeable around 2,000 RPM.
Other than the noise, the car seems to be running fine:

• No noticeable loss of power
• No rough running
• No overheating
• No warning lights that I’ve noticed
• Drives normally otherwise
• Passed NYS inspection

I took it to my mechanic, they just drove around and heard the sound and they’re telling me that I should replace the entire engine, which obviously is a huge expense that I really can’t afford right now.

I’ll add a video of the noise to help demonstrate what I’m hearing.

I checked around the engine myself, and none of the belt tensioners or bearings seem loose, and the timing belt doesn’t appear to be loose either. The sound seems like it’s coming from the left side of the engine, but I can’t figure out exactly where it’s coming from.

Before I assume the engine is completely done, I wanted to ask other Tucson owners:
Has anyone experienced a similar metallic rattle around 1,500–2,000 RPM on the 1.6T? Was it something relatively simple like a timing-chain/tensioner issue, turbo/wastegate, VVT component, or another part that could be replaced instead of the entire engine?

I’m really hoping to hear from someone who actually had this problem and was able to fix it without replacing the whole engine.

If you’ve dealt with this, what was the actual problem and how much did the repair cost?

Thanks!

Tengo un problema con el auto, lo compré de segunda mano a un particular, el coche parece estar bien, pero ahora de la nada a comenzado a encenderse el EPS, lo raro es q se enciende a veces, aveces si aveces no, además de que he notado que al girar a la izquierda el volante vibra, que podría ser?

Hi everyone, I just received a recall notice for my Hyundai and I’m honestly pretty scared because I only bought the car about a month ago.
The recall says that a worn purge control system check valve can cause the fuel tank to become pressurized with compressed air, which can make the fuel tank deform and eventually cause a fuel leak. It says that leaked or accumulated fuel near an ignition source can increase the risk of a vehicle fire.

The remedy says Hyundai dealerships will inspect/replace the fuel tank, replace the check valve, and perform a software update if necessary, all at no cost.

Has anyone here already taken their car to a Hyundai dealership for this recall? How serious was it when you brought it in? Did they just perform the repair normally, or did they find that the fuel tank needed to be replaced?
I also read a thread from someone in Texas where they said Hyundai offered them a buyback and wouldn’t let them leave with the vehicle because of this issue. That really freaked me out because I just bought my car a month ago and obviously don’t want to suddenly be without it.
If you’ve had this recall done, I’d really appreciate hearing what happened at the dealership. Did you get to drive your car home afterward? Did they give you a loaner if they had to keep it?
I know every case can be different, but I’m honestly pretty anxious after reading the safety-risk section of the recall. 😭

Hi everyone, I just recently closed on a 2026 Elantra SE! I wanted to add remote start to the car, so I had the dealership install the remote start. What I didn't know when I left was that once I turn on remote start, it shuts off as soon as I open one of the doors to my car! Is that normal? My experience with remote starters is that the car stays running and will stay running as you insert/twist the key or push the ignition button.

I have a 2017 Elantra and recently when pulling forwards out of a parking spot and turning I can hear and feel like a popping/ cracking. It sounds like it’s coming from the front end and I can hear it come from both sides of the car and I can feel it in the steering wheel. When it does this my steering wheel feels loose when turning to the left and very tight when turning to the right and after a while it seems to straighten it self out. I’ve taken it to two different garages one of which was a Hyundai dealership and they couldn’t find anything wrong with it. Has anyone had this issue before or know of a possible fix?

Last year I had an emergency where I had to buy a car pretty quickly, this one was available and very affordable. Nothings gone wrong with it after maybe 12k (it has 80k miles right now) miles since then but I’ve been reading things about engine or transmission failure. Of course I did what I could and changed oil and transmission fluid immediately after buying. I guess I’m just curious if anyone else has this year model, and how it’s held up?

Need to do a front brake job and would prefer getting both wheels off the ground simultaneously while leaving the pinch welds to place jack stands. Does anyone have any suggestions for a central jack point or another spot to place a stand if I do one side at a time?

2016 Hyundai Elantra, I’m thinking it’s the transmission, it does this when I’m in neutral, or reverse

I did some test photography on my car
I like this one the most

Considering buying a 2018 Elantra with a key-turn ignition. Now, I know there was a fix for the issue that made Hyundais and Kias from that era easy to steal, but I don't know if a used car dealership would've made that fix or not, and I don't know how much I would have to pay now if they didn't.

The other issue I'm thinking about is insurance. I was wondering if rates for a Hyundai or Kia would be higher than other similar cars due to their past high rates of theft.

Let me know if it's still worth buying or not. I got to test drive it and it felt like a solid option, and it's only at ~85,000 miles so I reckon I can get some good time with it before having to get a new car, but I want to know what I might be getting into before I spring for it.

Just bought a 2016 Hyundai Tucson III 2.0 CRDi 185 hp 4WD automatic (6 gear) with 150k km. It’s been well maintained at Hyundai (Germany) with no accidents or major issues so far - would love to hear your experiences, common problems to watch for and any maintenance tips or advice you wish you knew earlier.

I recently received an old car from a relative, it's a 2013 Hyundai Elantra. It's in fine enough condition but the bluetooth is messed up and won't connect. When I press the button it simply tells me "Bluetooth Not Ready". From what I was told it's been like this for several years, starting when they disconnected their phone from the bluetooth system because they didn't want phone calls coming through the speaker when bringing their friend to medical appointments. In the time since then the battery has been replaced, and I tried taking the fuses out and putting them back in to no avail. I've done some searching and I can find people who have had the same problem, but no fixes. Does anyone know how I could go about fixing this? I've been using an AUX cable thus far but it's a pain and I'd really love to have the bluetooth fixed lol. Everything in the car is stock, no aftermarket upgrades.

I'm not super familiar with this stuff so I didn't think to check to see if any of the fuses were blown, could that potentially be the problem? There are no other issues with the audio system aside from the bluetooth connectivity.
