2018 Hyundai elantra turns on and off by itself

Asked by GuruNRXYW Nov 06, 2019 at 05:32 PM about the 2018 Hyundai Elantra Sport FWD

Question type: General

Woke up this morning, seen a light
out the window in the driveway. My
car was on. Went and shut it off. 2
hours later my daughter woke up
and said my car lights were on. It
was running also. Went out and
shut it off, locked the doors, it
turned back on. Kept the fob still,
repeated the same thing, it turned
back on. Now I'm sitting in the car
and my dash keeps going from
auto to lights symbol. I took the
key out and it started again.  
Waiting my gas, I have a service
appt at the end of this month.

I think you should prepare cyanide pills instead of trying to fix it. Clearly the Armageddon is upon us.

If you are not the original owner than its possible the first owner created a Bluelink account which enables them to remotely turn on your car flash the lights etc. using their smartphone. Contact Bluelink to find out if this is the case and have them disable this service from the first owner and subscribe yourself if you want the service or not it's up to you

My car started doing all of this, but running, this week. We had to boost it off to start it Saturday morning because a blinker turned on in the middle of the night and drained the battery. Did you ever find out the cause?
