Problem overview

Some Hyundai Elantra GT owners report experiencing difficulties in exceeding 60 miles per hour during highway driving, which may be attributed to several factors. These include the Speed Limit Assist feature potentially limiting speed unintentionally, as it is designed to inform drivers of speed limits. Additionally, the Intelligent Speed Limit Assist may not always display the correct speed limit or control speed properly, prompting owners to manually set their vehicle speed to avoid restrictions. Persistent speed limitations could also stem from underlying mechanical issues, such as problems with the transmission or engine components like spark plugs and coils. Furthermore, some owners note that map issues affecting the vehicle's navigation system could impose speed restrictions in specific areas. Lastly, stalling at low speeds, possibly due to camshaft sensor issues, may contribute to the challenges in reaching higher speeds. It is crucial for owners facing these issues to diagnose and address the root causes effectively.
