It’s distracting to have to ding at me every 5-10 minutes. It will turn down my audiobook on CarPlay and make me miss information ad well as impacting my GPS giving direction. It’s pointless, frustrating, and I can’t turn it off. It should be optional. https://plaincars.com/make/hyundai-elantra-n https://plaincars.com/make/hyundai-elantra-n#complaint-2131755 Thu, 18 Sep 2025 00:00:00 GMT The subframe is pressed against the hard brake line.
