NHTSA Complaint #10689784 — 2011 HYUNDAI ELANTRA

I BOUGHT MY HYUNDAI ELANTRA NEW IN 2011 SINCE OWNING THE VEHICLE IT'S BEEN A NIGHTMARE AND I GET VERY LITTLE IF ANY HELP FROM THE LOCAL HYUNDAI DEALER. I HAVE HAD NUMEROUS ISSUES WITH THE VEHICLE NOT STARTING (CAR IS SILENT WHEN I TURN THE KEY IN THE IGNITION, CAR CRANKS BUT WON'T TURN OVER, ENGINE STARTS BUT DIES, CAR DIES WITHOUT ANY REASON). I'VE BROUGHT UP COMPLAINTS AND CONCERNS TO THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP BUT THEY ARE NEVER OF ANY HELP. I RECENTLY HAD TO HAVE THE STARTER REPLACED BUT IT WAS ONLY REPLACED BECAUSE MY CAR ONE DAY WOULDN'T START AT ALL. SINCE THE REPLACEMENT I AM STILL MET WITH MY CAR NOT STARTING AT LEAST ONCE A WEEK IF NOT MORE. YESTERDAY MY SUN ROOF WOULD NOT CLOSE COMPLETELY, IT RETRACTS A FEW INCHES FROM CLOSING, THIS IS NOT NEW TO ME, MULTIPLE INTERMITTENT ELECTRICAL ISSUES, SUCH AS IS OCCURRING NOW - THE SUN ROOF RETRACTING ON ITS OWN WITHOUT ANY VISIBLE REASON. OR WHEN THE GEAR SHIFT IS PUT IN PARK/REVERSE, ETC. SUNROOF WILL TAKE ON A MIND OF ITS OWN. I'M FED UP WITH THIS LEMON OF A CAR AND AS I SEE FROM ALL THE OTHER COMPLAINTS ONLINE ABOUT STARTING ISSUES HYUNDAI NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT - FIGURE OUT THE REASON WHY AND LET US CONSUMERS KNOW. *TR
