2023 Hyundai Elantra N Complaints

I find myself in this situation due to a defect in my 2023 Hyundai, which is under Full Factory Warranty. I have had all my required services completed by Hyundai on time, and as the consumer had no idea anything was wrong with my vehicle. On 31 August 2024, just 25 days after being service by Hyundai Yuma on 6 August 2024, this defect caused a catastrophic failure in my front driver side tire resulting in damage to my vehicle. My vehicle was towed to Hyundai Yuma on 1 September 2024, by Hyundai Roadside Assistance.

When vehicle gets wet, knock sensor trips and puts the vehicle in limp mode. Making it very dangerous to drive since everything is underpowered and makes it hard to get up to speed, shift, etc.

The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: (AWAITING); Manufacturer Recall Number: 262 (Fuel System, Gasoline) however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available.

Whenever the knock sensor gets wet it automatically puts the car into limp mode at highway speeds and it’s very hazardous. There has to be some type of cover that Hyundai has to put over the knock sensor or this will continue to happen to us while it’s a brand new car.

While driving through heavy rain on the interstate Friday night the CEL came on and the vehicle immediately lost power and went I to a limo mode causing my car to rapidly lose speed while on the interstate. Restarting the vehicle did nothing. I called the closest Hyundai dealer and they said " oh yeah the N models do that a lot in the rain or through carwashes, it triggers false knock sensor codes, you can try to get a parts store to clear the code or you can come in tomorrow and we will clear the code." I then got a parts store to clear the code and the vehicle has been fine since. I did a quick internet search and apparently this is very common and lots of owners have this happened multiple times a year and the dealer has no fix or intention of a fix
