Description of the problem | For the last week after sitting overnight my car will not start. I get in while its parked stationary on the street, turn the key, all the lights come on, i can hear the fuel pump kick on, (there is no click), and nothing happens. After i repeatedly turn the key it has been starting but i am afraid it will just not start at some point. Called the dealer where i purchased they car, they said to call the hyundai dealer. Called hyundai dealer, they said they have not heard anything about the problem and would have to replicate problem (there are complaints all over the internet about this problem) they said i would have to leave the car with them, with no chance of a loaner (i cannot afford to uber 26 miles a day). I told them once i get it started for the day, it usually starts right back up after being turned off. I took a video of the problem this morning. It had the same trouble starting this morning when cold, and then when i got to work, 13 miles away, i turned it off and attempted to start it, it did the same thing (thats why i obtained the video of the issue). I am going to have to borrow a family members car to drive while they diagnose this widely reported problem they have "never heard of". I owned a 2007 elantra since it was new and just sold it to buy this piece of garbage.. I never had one issue in 13 years of ownership. Hyundai needs to take accountability and recall this issue. |
