Consumer Review Video - 2018 Hyundai Elantra Sport 1.6L 4 Cyl. Turbo

Common problems and easy repairs on a 2018 Elantra

The 2018 Hyundai Elantra Sport is rather easy to maintain. The front turn signal is accessible by simply reaching behind the housing, making for reliable bulb changes. Connecting your phone via Bluetooth shouldn’t be a problem given the clear instructions on the touchscreen menu. The spare tire and jack kit are packaged together for ease of access when servicing a flat.

However, the 2018 Hyundai Elantra Sport has some complicated procedures – particularly with the lights. Accessing the remainder of the headlights will require the wheel well lining, bumper, and bulb housing to be removed first, which will not allow for reliable replacements. The tail lights will also require the housings to be removed before their bulbs can be reached, and both of the housings have tedious set-ups. Performing a coolant flush may be a problem as you must work upside-down while underneath the vehicle to remove a large panel first.
