HYUNDAI ELANTRA GT Recalls

The Hyundai Elantra GT has 6 recalls covering the 2013–2018 model years, with the most serious being a 2014 engine control module defect on 2.0L Nu GDI-equipped vehicles where the engine can fail without warning, cutting power and preventing a restart, with a risk of fire. The engine control module update for 2014 models adds monitoring to catch early signs of engine trouble before a full failure occurs. On 2018 models with the panoramic sunroof, the sunroof motor can be incorrectly programmed and fail to detect an obstacle or a hand in the closing path, meaning it will not stop or retract and can pinch or injure someone. The 2013 model year has a brake pedal stopper pad that can deteriorate over time, causing the brake lights to stay on continuously even when the driver is not braking, which removes a key signal to following traffic.
