Hello friends. My 2017 Hyundai Elentra Se has ninety thousand miles on it. My car has just began to experience issues. The automobile would shut off while I was driving, but I could start it again and go on. Later on, it would cut off once more later on. It has begun to occur more frequently. I need some direction and assistance so that I can figure out how to solve this issue. I appreciate your assistance.
I had a similar issue with my old car once—it kept shutting off while I was driving. Turns out, it was a problem with the fuel pump. I’d suggest checking your fuel system or getting a diagnostic test done. It might be worth having a mechanic take a look.
A faulty Engine Control Module (ECU) can be a major reason that causes your car to shut off while driving. Being the most important part of a car, that ensures that the engine is working optimally, at its full efficiency. However, a faulty ECU can affect the smooth functioning of an engine.
Your Elantra’s sudden shutdowns are definitely a worry. It could be a few things: a cranky fuel pump, a misbehaving ignition coil, or even a sensor playing tricks.
Don’t ignore this! Get to a trusted mechanic ASAP for a proper diagnosis. They can plug in a code reader to see if any error messages are popping up.
Safety first, so avoid driving long distances until it’s sorted.
Hi Zacky
Engine shut-offs while driving can be due to fuel system issues (empty tank, fuel pump failure, clogged filter), ignition problems (bad ignition switch, spark plugs), electrical failures (battery, wiring), sensor malfunctions, overheating, fuel contamination, or security system activation.
