US government opens investigation into '07-08 Hyundai Elantra after reports of engine stalling
WASHINGTON: The government is investigating 2007-2008 model year Hyundai Elantra compact cars after receiving
reports of engine stalling, officials said Monday.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said in a posting on its Web site that its preliminary investigation
involves about 167,000 Elantras.
NHTSA said it has received four reports of engine stalling because of problems with the vehicle's fuel pump module.
One owner said the car stalled in the fast lane of a three-lane highway and caused a crash involving three cars and one injury.
Three of the four reports involved vehicles with only 600 miles (1,000 kilometers) or less; the fourth vehicle had 2,839 miles (4,568 kilometers) at the time.
