I checked an Elantra SE out from the dealership yesterday to bring home to let my wife have a gander. (She hates going to car dealers.) No dashboard buzz on WFO, and no buzzing at 70 or 70+.
My new Car and Driver came today and they had a small car test. I looked up their December 2006 small car test and they mentioned a serious Hyundai buzzing at 70.
I guess Hyundai read it and fixed it, the car was quiet and composed at all speeds.
