Across all three generations the recurring theme for owners is Hyundai's aggressive recall posture, seat belt pretensioners, airbag inflators, an ABS module that could leak brake fluid and short internally (fire risk, recall 23V-651 covering 2011-2015 cars), and steering/brake-booster campaigns on early AD cars, most fixed free at the dealer. Maintenance itself is inexpensive and interval-driven: 5W-20 or 5W-30 oil in the naturally-aspirated engines (0W-20/5W-30 in the turbos and hybrid), a shared spin-on oil filter across nearly the whole lineup, and a CR2032 key fob battery throughout. ## Hyundai Elantra by model year - [2025](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/hyundai/elantra/2025) - [2024](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/hyundai/elantra/2024) - [2023](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/hyundai/elantra/2023) - [2022](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/hyundai/elantra/2022) - [2021](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/hyundai/elantra/2021) - [2020](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/hyundai/elantra/2020) - [2019](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/hyundai/elantra/2019) - [2018](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/hyundai/elantra/2018) - [2017](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/hyundai/elantra/2017) - [2016](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/hyundai/elantra/2016) - [2015](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/hyundai/elantra/2015) - [2014](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/hyundai/elantra/2014) - [2013](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/hyundai/elantra/2013) - [2012](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/hyundai/elantra/2012) ## Sources - [Ontario Hyundai, Elantra oil type & capacity by model year (2021-2026 engines)](https://www.ontariohyundai.com/service/service-and-parts-tips/hyundai-elantra-oil-type/) - [AMSOIL lookup, 2022 Elantra 2.0L Smartstream MPI oil spec/capacity](https://www.amsoil.com/lookup/auto-and-light-truck/2022/hyundai/elantra/2-0l-4-cyl-engine-code-g-g/) - [AMSOIL lookup, 2022 Elantra 1.6L Hybrid oil spec/capacity](https://www.amsoil.com/lookup/auto-and-light-truck/2022/hyundai/elantra/1-6l-4-cyl-engine-code-c-c/) - [AMSOIL lookup, 2022 Elantra N 2.0L Turbo oil spec/capacity](https://www.amsoil.com/lookup/auto-and-light-truck/2022/hyundai/elantra-n/2-0l-4-cyl-engine-code-h-h-turbo/) - [OilShop.ca, 2025 Elantra N oil type, capacity, filter](https://www.oilshop.ca/blog/2025-hyundai-elantra-n-oil-type-oil-filter-oil-change-interval-and-oil-capacity-information) - [Konig Wheels fit check, Elantra N factory wheel/tire fitment (245/35R19, 5x114.3)](https://konigwheels.com/blogs/fit-check/hyundai-elantra-n-fit-check) - [Michelin USA, Elantra N tire sizes and pressures](https://www.michelinman.com/auto/manufacturers/hyundai/elantra-n) - [Paragon/EBay, Elantra N 360mm front brake rotor OE diameter](https://paragonbrakes.com/paragon-2-piece-rotors-front-pair-360x30mm-hyundai-elantra-n/) - [NHTSA recall 22V-123/22V-218/22V-354, seat belt pretensioner explosion risk](https://api.nhtsa.gov/recalls/recallsByVehicle?make=hyundai&model=elantra&modelYear=2022) - [NHTSA recall 24V-879, rearview camera failure](https://api.nhtsa.gov/recalls/recallsByVehicle?make=hyundai&model=elantra&modelYear=2022) - [NHTSA recall 24V-308, EGR valve electrical short](https://api.nhtsa.gov/recalls/recallsByVehicle?make=hyundai&model=elantra&modelYear=2024) - [fueleconomy.gov, 2022 Elantra EPA ratings (all trims incl.
