Recall on car back in 2014 for brake failure. Improper fluid used causing ABS assist module to fail resulting in soft break pedal. Purchased vehicle in 2014 used and never told of this issue after purchasing vehicle nor never sent any info. Electrical problems, drive seat wont respond, wind shield wipers randomly turning on. Tail lights not working also on recall. This notification also never sent to use resulting in the vehicle being rear ended last year. Passenger seat head rest deployed and not drivers. Car was fixed and a couple of weeks ago the passenger head reset deployed again hitting my daughter and at the same exploded and came of its frame landing in the back seat. Hyundia dealer wont do anything other than whats on recall now.
