About These NHTSA Complaints:
The NHTSA is the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints can be spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem. See the Back button — blue bar at the very top of the page — to explore more.
Seat: In August 2019, while my son was driving my car with both hands on the steering wheel and me in the front passenger seat on a city street the driver seat back started to fold forward to the point my son was screaming and scared not knowing what was happening he had to make an abrupt exit off the road into a parking lot we were passing. Once safely parked he pulled the latch on the side that controls the seat back and made the seat go back into place. Now as of May 2020, the seat will only go backwards and is stuck in that position and will not go forward at all. Suspension: I have had this car since the beginning of April 2014, I have had the suspension done I know at a minimum of 5 times to date, the last being 7/2/2020 and currently being told it needs to be fixed again!!!!!! this is ridiculous!!! engine: The check engine alert comes on every time I cut the car on for the last 2 years or so. Each time it was taken to the mechanic and the error code came up the same so I paid to get the issue fixed to no avail. The check engine alert continues to come on and I was told it is a sensor malfunction. Air bag icon: This has been on for the past year and I was told yet again that it is a sensor malfunction.

At 12:50 am on 2/17/2019 when the car was pulled over on the w. bound 72nd St exit ramp of I-80 in omaha, ne the engine started on fire. The car was pulled over because it was chugging on the interstate highway and ramp. The weather was snowing and there were police on duty due to other resons so the police saw the fire, called the fire dep't and had the car taken to the pollice impound lot. My insurance co. Inspected the car and declared the car a total loss. The VIN was checked afterwards and this car has a history of electrical engine shorts causing fires and I was not notified.

While driving on us 95 at night my engine stopped runing. I was traving at 65 mph.at the time. The car was towed and later inspected. The inspection revealed that alternator had failed because oil had leaked from the valve cover gaskets directly onto the alternator which caused it to fail. This failure also affected the power steering & my lights as well. I was fortunate that my car was not struck as the traffic was heavy..

Tried unlocking the door with the remote, didn't work, used the key to unlock the door, inside lights didn't come on. When I put the key in the ignition, nothing happened, no lights, no clicking, no nothing..like the whole car just completely shut down, no type of power.

The engine blew at 81,000 miles in a well maintained vehicle no warning lights ever came on. Hyundai Corp and customer service took no ownership for this problem. No choice but to purchase a refurbished engine. The vehicle had been in for routine service 2 weeks earlier and no problems detected. Very unhappy with this product and the last of responsibility by Hyundai Corp.
