Recalls
Safety issues the manufacturer must repair for free. A recall means confirm the fix was done, not walk away.
No recalls on record for this model
No safety recalls were found in this dataset. It is still worth entering the exact VIN on NHTSA before purchase, since recalls can be added at any time.
Is 282 complaints a lot? They were filed between 2018 and 2026, roughly 32 a year, which is more than the typical model in this dataset. We do not have sales figures for this model, so treat this as a rough volume, not a rate per car on the road. Popular, high-volume models naturally collect more complaints over time.
How does it compare with other years? The 2018 has 282 complaints on file, fewer than the 2017 (767) and more than the 2019 (250). Of the 16 model years of the Hyundai Elantra we cover, the 2013 has the most (1,313). Older model years have had longer to collect complaints.
