Rear seat restraint hardware failureSEAT BELTS2 complaints2025-12 → 2026-07elantra-2025-rear-seat-restraint-hardware-failure
  • 11748350 The rear driver‑side seat belt in my 2025 Hyundai Elantra will not extend or retract. The seat belt was used under normal conditions, with no excessive force, misuse, or accident that would cause damage
  • 11707177 The rear seat back would not latch or lock in the upright position. The vehicle and seat are available for inspection upon request
Driver attention alert distractionLANE DEPARTURE7 complaints2025-06 → 2026-01elantra-2025-driver-attention-alert-distraction
  • 11666178 I keep getting a warning that pops up saying “consider taking a break”. It’s very distracting and there’s no way to turn it off. Please give us a way!
  • 11695773 The “consider taking a break” warning pops up way too frequently and cannot be disabled. It completes the exact opposite of its intended purpose, and actually is a danger to driving, as it diverts your attention away from the road
  • 11671577 Driver Attention Warning System. It is often incorrect, and EXTREMELY annoying, and distracting. It can not be shut off. It does not understand that wind, and potholes cause somewhat erratic driving habits, coupled with overly sensitive steering systems
Airbag non-deployment in collisionAIR BAGS2 complaints2026-02 → 2026-06elantra-2025-airbag-non-deployment-crash
  • 11714912 Despite the collision, the vehicle’s airbags failed to deploy, which I believe is a safety defect. I am concerned that this poses a serious risk to myself and other passengers
  • 11747113 The contact stated that while stopped at a red light with the precise pressure on the brake pedal, the RPM became elevated, the brake pedal was released, and as a result, the vehicle increased in speed and crashed into the rear of another vehicle

  • 11672184 The contact stated that while his wife was pulling into a customer's driveway at 5 MPH, the vehicle stalled and rolled back and crashed into a parked Ford F-150. The brake pedal was applied, but the vehicle failed to respond
Forward collision assist braking malfunctionFORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE2 complaints2025-11 → 2026-04elantra-2025-forward-collision-assist-malfunction
  • 11730256 The contact stated that while driving 80 MPH with the cruise control activated, the braking system failed to engage, causing the contact to manually depress the brake pedal to stop the vehicle
  • 11700405 On a recent road trip, the automatic brake system activated twice in a manner that could have put our lives at risk
