Hyundai Elantra While not much larger than the accent, the Elantra offers similar room, but a sportier look and feel, as well as more power.

Default intermittent check engine light

hello all,

my daughter has a 2012 elantra gls purchased new. it now has 45,000 miles. over the last 12 months the check engine light has come on twice. both times the dealer said it was nothing but a software update. the day after her last visit to the dealer, the check engine came on again! she set another appointment and then the check engine light went off for 4 days. now on day 5 it is on again!. she is scheduled back to the dealer this friday. what the heck is going on here? any ideas? thanks!
