Montgomery Made Hyundai Elantra Problems Reported


 

 From a MotorBiscuit story

The 2021 Hyundai Elantra is already having problems

"According to Consumer Reports Auto Test Center, the 2021 Hyundai Elantra has already proven to be a new car with at least one serious problem. While testing the pedestrian detection system, CR testers found a strange issue. 

The automatic emergency braking (AEB) system successfully stopped the compact sedan and avoided striking a test dummy, but the engine sometimes stalled in the process. This engine failure required the driver to shift to Park or Neutral and restart the engine. 

When Consumer Reports reached out to Hyundai about the issue, the South Korean automaker said they hadn’t heard of this issue before and confirmed that the Elantra shouldn’t shut off like that. After Hyundai replicated the test and found the same result, it issued a technical service bulletin (TSB) to address the problem by updating the Elantra’s transmission software."
