I have driven several Elantras of the current generation, some on long trips, and none have made that kind of sound. I think your dealer is being evasive. It could be that the rear window is not seated properly. That is fixable, but would not be real easy--maybe that's why they don't want to do it. If you have another dealer or more in your area, you might want to take it to them to see what they say. Or call Hyundai Customer Service about it.
 
Also, have you returned your survey yet? The dealers treat those very seriously. If you haven't filled it out yet, you might call the sales manager and explain you'd like to give them top marks on the survey, but you can't while this issue is unresolved.

I rented one last fall and heard a similar noise--but from the sunroof, rather than the rear window area. Could this be the problem?

Noises from rear underside of '08 Elantra by michael4182

Love my '08 Elantra. BUT, for the last 8 weeks have had a loud "clunking/thunking/banging noise" from the rear undercarriage when going over bumps, turning, accelerating from stop. Noise is not consistant and may be related to the gas tank. Local dealership has been very attentive, but cannot find the source. Just got an answer on another forum that this could be the separator flap in the gas tank that has broken loose from its weld. Makes a lot of sense..., and as I post this the dealership service people are now following that lead. Anyone else had that problem and found a fix? Thanks

intermittent starting problem by bill253

2004 Elantra with auto trans will not start once or twice in a 2 week period or sometimes longer. I eventually get it started after trying to start it 3-6 times. I have not checked for spark but I do hear the fuel pump.

There's a lockout switch inside the A/T shifter. The next time it won't start, try wiggling the shifter and see if you get results. If so, the problem is the neutral safety switch.

I have an '09 Elantra SLE that has started the same popping noise from the rear window.
 
My issue seems to be worse when it is cool outside. I live on hill so I hear the loud rear window popping every time I go up my driveway.
 
Did yours ever get fixed?

I also have had this happening in my 09 elantra. We took it to the dealer and they said they have had alot of people calling in about this problem. As soon as I told them the problem they knew exactly what it was. They said they actually have to take the back window out and put some kind of spacers in between the window and where it sits to make it stop doing that. They have the auto glass co. coming tomorrow to do a few of them so, I'm actually taking it tomorrow to have them do mine. We'll see if that solves the problem!

Thank you brenderz05. Let me know how it works out for you. I took my 09 Elantra into the dealer today about the window popping. I was explaining the issue to the service manager when one of the mechanics stepped up and said he owns an 09 Elantra with the same problem. He said it was driving him crazy.
 
If you don't mind. Do you know if the spacer solution was a "Hyundai solution" or a clever fix by a mechanic and/or the auto glass co.?
 
Thanks!
