So here I am again having the same problem I had at the end of 2025. I have a 2021 Elantra SEL that I bought certified pre-owned exactly 2 years ago this month. I had to bring it back because I am getting a reading on the dash that says "conditions for smart cruise control are not met. Please check smart cruise control." This is the third time it's occurred and supposedly been fixed by the dealership. The car has 40,000 miles and every time I go back to the dealer they "recalibrate it". It has started working by itself two or three times but every time it rains forget it. It stops working and the issue stays in the historical codes. Basically I want to know is if ANYBODY else has the problem as bad as I do and if so, what did you do about it to finally rectify it or what do you do about it to get it working again? People tell me just to clean off the sensor on the front grill and the one on the front of the rear view mirror but to no avail. I can go back to the dealer again, but honestly I don't want to. I need them to replace the radar sensor in the SCC system not recalibrate the fucking thing again! With the cruise control I can get over 50 MPG so I'd like it to be working. So anybody who's had the issue please let me know what you did. Thanks in advance.
