The car is unreliable and it stalls. Horrible engine design.

The car does not give you warning when it stalls. Very hard to find the problem. The dealership couldn't even figure out what was wrong with the car. It took 3 times of taking the car in to figure out the issue.

It’s not the Sante Fe

I’ve driven Santa Fe’s for over 10 years. This time due to price and wanting to add an extended warranty I was convinced to give the Elantra a try . I’m not happy nor enjoying this car. It’s small ; low to the ground; doesn’t have the pick up or power I was told it would I already need an axle and cabin filter less than a year into owning it! My Santa Fe’s literally never had problems - just standard brakes; oil changes etc.

Yearly issues

I purchased the car about 3 years ago and every year I have had a major issue that is luckily under warranty. First year the car wouldn’t start and had to be towed from my job to the dealership, the only way to fix the issue was for Poway Hyundai to have the manufacturer send a new computer system. 2nd year my Cadillac converter needed to be replaced. 3rd year engine assembly replacement with no explanation on why it happened.

2016 Elantra GT

Power from stops is abysmal. Once rolling it is OK, but from stops engine sounds as if straining. Also, there is no remote garage door opener on the rear view mirror. That is a small item that should be added.

New car

OK car, steering is funky, doesn't inspire a lot of confidence. Crawling in stop and go traffic is really tiresome as it is near impossible to maintain a steady speed. You are either accelerating or decelerating with no in between. That is my primary complaint.

Average at best

Car gets less mileage than advertised. Noisy interior. Hard to hear the radio! Handles well. Front end is so low that we have scraped the front bumper facia twice costing several hundred $ to fix. It is an OK car for the $ but I would not buy another one. The remote key design is really stupid. When you pull the keys out of your pocket the remote falls off of you key chain. It happens all of the time. We lost one remote & the dealer wants $ 200 to replace it with the same stupid design. I can help you design a much better key fob in about 10 minutes. All in all it is just an OK car. Nothing special.

Underperformer

Interior is adequately Comfortable. Bouncy, hard ride with shifting up sluggish. Enjoyed the extras such as power roof & Bluelink. Bluetooth stopped working. Would not recommend this car. Would not buy this again.

Nice Car - but after paying extra for hatchback - it should have some other amenities

Car is nice, sunroof is nice, but there should be a way to open the back without getting out of the car. And it cost extra for the hatchback, so why don't I have the sensors that tell me if another car is too close or I have gone over the lines. A relative bought a Tucson at the same time and paid less than $1000 more - but it has all the bells and whistles.

The Elantra Gt is very disappointing.

I waited so long to graduate from the lower level of an Hyundai Accent for nothing. This Elantra GT has given more problems than any car . I wish it was possible to get back my Accent.

Sporty

A great car for the money! The one drawback for me is it's my only vehicle and though it handles well on the road and is fun to drive, in the winter it has been a disaster! The car sits too low to the ground and easily gets stuck in the snow. I never had that experience before.The car is also much too light and the tires do not perform well at all on snowy or slick roads. My Santa Fe was a much better choice all around for the Long Island environment! I'm looking into a trade in. Probably go back to the Santa Fe or similar model.
