What the reviewed source says
Start with the documented condition, not a parts guess.
NHTSA lists the 2021 Hyundai Elantra in safety campaign 24V879000. The official record says: Due to a damaged printed circuit board, the rearview camera image may fail to display. The stated safety consequence is: A rearview image that does not display reduces the driver's visibility and increases the risk of a crash. A make, model and year match does not confirm that a specific VIN is included or that the repair remains open.

Check recalls by VIN
A VIN search checks the displayed NHTSA records for an unrepaired safety recall associated with one vehicle. A model search shows only the wider campaign population.
Read guide ↗When a car is unsafe
A warning light does not always mean the same thing, but weak brakes or smoke leave little room for experimentation. Damaged tires and certain recall instructions can do the same.
Read guide ↗Why symptoms overlap
“It makes a weird noise” is useful human language. Diagnosis begins when that language is tied to the exact vehicle and its operating conditions.
