‘It Doesn't Do Anything:' Woman Buys 2024 Hyundai Elantra. Why Can't She Figure Out This Feature?

People are judging a woman who just bought a 2024 Hyundai Elantra for asking for help figuring out what something on her dashboard does. It inspired a flood of comments ridiculing her for asking a simple question, as well as plenty of pushback against people for being rude.

A good comment section can give you answers, camaraderie, and maybe even make you laugh. But, as one person asserted, the comments on this confused Hyundai Elantra owner's post 'didn't pass the vibe check.' An Indecipherable Square In a viral video with more than 439,000 views, content creator Nyiadiahja ( @nyiadiahja ) shares that she just got a 2024 Hyundai Elantra and was confused about a specific feature. When she flips the screen, you can see that on the left of the dashboard is a small square with a white circle and a line in the middle. There are no buttons on it to help her figure out what it does. When she touches it, nothing happens, so it's clearly not a touchscreen.

Then She Reads the Fine Print on the Nozzles 'I just need to know what this is,' she says in the TikTok. 'There's nothing that I can physically do. It doesn't do anything to the dashboard.' Nyiadiahja adds that she tried to stick her phone on it to see if it was a wireless phone charger, but that didn't work either. 'Can somebody tell me what it is?' she asks. Snark In The Comments Although Nyiadiahja was just asking a simple question with a simple answer, her post succeeded in setting some people off. 'READ THE MANUAL. It's in your glove compartment,' a top comment reads. 'That's something you should [have] asked the dealer before you drive off,' another said. Others made jokes or came to her defense. 'That's the cooker right there, in case you driving you want to want make some noodles,' a person jested. 'Can someone please answer her question without all the judgment?' another chimed in. Someone else added, 'Can y'all just answer her? Why so flippin rude?' So What Is It? Hyundai debuted the feature that Nyiadiahja was confused about in the 2021 Elantra. She's not the only one who couldn't figure it out at first. Motor1 reported that the panel with the circular design 'could be any number of things' that it ultimately wasn't, such as an air vent or a speaker. Ultimately, we learned that the panel does not have a purpose. 'It's just a design on the glass… it doesn't serve a function, other than aesthetic value,' a Hyundai product planning team member told Motor1 at the time. Motor1 reached out to Nyiadiahja for comment via TikTok. We'll be sure to update this if she responds. More From Motor1 No Company Has More Range Than Hyundai.
