The vehicle has less than 2,000 miles on it being a 2024 model (hybrid limited) and on more than 2 occasions without warning the car will be dead while parked. No accessories left plugged in to cause drainage, no warning from the MyHyundai bluelink app, and the dealers are completely clueless. The vehicle gets driven every day, and in order to "fix" the issue temporarily, i have to unlock the car manually using the physical key, and press the 12V reset button. That wont last long before the backup battery dies too.

Rear camera suddenly stopped working while reversing. Happened approximately at 19,000 miles. Don't know the cause but seems like a safety issue since rear view cameras are federally mandated. The usual camera view is now replaced by green error screen that says "No signal received. Please try again later"

My 2024 Hyundai Elantra limited horn stopped working, almost causing someone to hit me. The car only has 4,000 miles on it. I am extremely lucky I did not get in an accident because of this. Extremely dangerous issue and soon further research its a very common problem with some newer Hyundais. There needs to be a recall before some actually gets hurt!
