Aviod 2013 models. Aviod 2011-2012 models made in alabama. 2011-2012 models are O.K. if they are made in korea. 2.0 liter GDI engines should be avioded because some high pressure fuel pumps leak and they are on top of the engine and could start a fire. 1.8 liter engines could have piston slap creating noise and poor gas mileage, because they did not deburr the cylinders on some engines, wearing the pistons out. When you start the engine cold and hear a noise like a hand knocking on a table that is rod knock, avoid those elantras because on some engines they did not clean the oil passages from metal shavings before they assembled the engine. 2014-2016 elantras are good from my experience. A relative has had 2 2015 elantras one had 180,000 miles before it got totalled, and the one she has now has 214,000 on it. Hope this helps.Aug 02, 2023
