In severe cases, the corrosion may progress to the point where the lower control arm's upper and lower panels become perforated.  A perforated front lower control arm may fracture between its ball joint attachment and the forward and rearward pivot attachments to the chassis.  This could result in a loss of vehicle control and a crash causing property damage, personal injury or death.  Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, replace the front lower control arms.  Should the control arms not require replacement, drainage holes will be added, as well as treatment with rust-proofing material to arrest the corrosion process.","mfr_campaign":"R0058","units":45759,"do_not_drive":null,"park_outside":null,"notification":"Safety Mfr","match":"exact","models":["ELANTRA"],"built_from":null,"built_to":null,"url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/recalls/tc/2009121"},{"source":"nhtsa","country":"us","campaign":"09V125000","date":"2009-04-16","manufacturer":"Hyundai Motor Company","component":"SUSPENSION:FRONT:CONTROL ARM","summary":"HYUNDAI IS RECALLING 160,904 MY 2001-2003 ELANTRA AND MY 2003 TIBURON VEHICLES ORIGINALLY SOLD IN OR CURRENTLY REGISTERED IN THE STATES OF CONNECTICUT, DELAWARE, ILLINOIS, INDIANA, IOWA, MAINE, MARYLAND, MASSACHUSETTS, MICHIGAN, MINNESOTA, MISSOURI, NEW HAMPSHIRE, NEW JERSEY, NEW YORK, OHIO, PENNSYLVANIA, RHODE ISLAND, VERMONT, WEST VIRGINIA, WISCONSIN, AND THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA.

After the first application following a sustained period of non-operation at temperatures below -30 degrees Celsius, the reduced elasticity of the diaphragm prevents the brake booster vacuum valve from fully closing.  Therefore, the booster is unable to replenish vacuum and braking assist is reduced.  The brakes operate, but require higher than normal brake pedal application effort, which may result in increased stopping distances.  Normal brake booster operation returns as the brake booster diaphragm becomes warmer, approximately 10 minutes after the engine is started.  Correction:  Dealers will replace the brake booster assembly.","mfr_campaign":null,"units":19930,"do_not_drive":null,"park_outside":null,"notification":"Safety TC","match":"exact","models":["ELANTRA"],"built_from":null,"built_to":null,"url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/recalls/tc/2004293"},{"source":"nhtsa","country":"us","campaign":"03V496000","date":"2003-12-03","manufacturer":"HYUNDAI CARIBBEAN-PUERTO RICO","component":"SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:HOSES, LINES/PIPING, AND FITTINGS","summary":"ON CERTAIN PASSENGER VEHICLES, THE BRAKE TUBES FOR THE REAR BRAKES CAN CONTACT THE STEERING GEARBOX MOUNTING BRACKETS.","mfr_campaign":"061","units":1993,"do_not_drive":false,"park_outside":false,"notification":null,"match":"exact","models":["ELANTRA"],"built_from":"2000-06-30","built_to":"2002-12-15","url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/recalls/nhtsa/03V496000"},{"source":"tc","country":"ca","campaign":"2003173","date":"2003-07-22","manufacturer":null,"component":"Brakes","summary":"On certain vehicles, the rear brake tubes may contact the steering gear box mounting brackets resulting in rear brake tube wear and corrosion.
