The doors wouldn't unlock, then decided to unlock. The vehicle will only make this loud clicking noise. The battery tests good. The headlights and taillights keep coming on and off even though the vehicle is not on at all. All switches are tuned off and it's not in accc mode. Had to disconnect battery and wait for tow truck.

Once again the car began to shake violently and started lunging forward while driving within city limits. Check engine warning light came on. I pulled over and shut the car off. When I restarted the car, the check engine light was no longer illuminated and the car seemed to drive somewhat normally. This was not the first time this happened, and from what I can tell by reading other similar complaints on the NHTSA website, several people are having these issues as well. It appears to be the ECM, engine control module. Hyundai needs to address this issue asap. It is very dangerous to drive this vehicle. Do not allow them to say you need new spark plugs or a software update. This is a safety issue that needs a recall immediately.

My car had recently began to shake and buck violently while driving with no warning lights or indicators at 38,000 miles. Three weeks ago before a regular maintenance appointment at my Hyundai dealership where I bought the !car, as I turned over the ignition and accelerated the car began to buck and shake violently. As I pressed the gas, the car would not accelerate. I was in the middle of traffic in Washington, D.C. so once I was able to safely move over, I turned the car off and back over. No shaking and continued as normal. Once I took the car in the following week, I was told everything was fine and made sure to mention the shaking and bucking and was told that they didn't see anything. The next day following service and receiving my car back, my car began to shake violently again. Still no warning light indicator. I returned the car to the mechanic where my coil packs were updated (I bought my car March 2017 and was never told about any recalls on coil packs that release late 2017 until this moment). Once I received my car back I was informed that everything was okay. Well it was not. The next day I'm driving my car a short distance when two hard shakes happened. One sounded like two metal pieces colliding. I pulled over and turned the car off and back over. The malfunction indicator light is now permanently on. I had to have my car towed and now being told it could be the transmission but no updates. Seriously unsafe and could've now been in multiple accidents although I've regularly serviced at the dealership I purchased my car.

Both back doors would not open. They would not open from the outside or inside. Major safety issue. I took to shop and they said it was acutator or something like that. Cost over $650 to fix. I had the extended warranty so I got it fixed, "free". but others may not be so lucky. Never been in wreck, completely not my fault at all.

Over the past 2 weeks I have a problem with the head lights shutting off wile driving on main highways at night. This has happened about 8 or 9 times. They will go off when switching from high beam to low beam. If I pull the light switch arm a couple times they do eventually come back on. Also two times in the past 2 weeks my parking lights have come on while parked and car is shut off.

10/7/19 - my car battery was dead after sitting for 8 hours parked. There was no indication that it was losing power and I had brought my vehicle in to be serviced at a Hyundai dealer a week before where they said no issues were seen with my battery at that time. I got a jump and drove home. The next morning my car would not start again. The car was towed to a shop because it couldn't even be jumped at this point. We were told by the same Hyundai dealer the battery was beyond dead. And needed to be replaced. It was barely two years old at this point. But we replaced it. 7/7/20 my battery is completely dead again. Car wouldn't start again today without warning. A repair shop tested it and it was completely drained dead. They said it needs to be replaced. This is the second time in less than one year. This is not right.

Electrical issue - front passenger outside door handle will not open door without being pulled several times. Can open from inside. Other issue - heat only works when car is in motion, otherwise it blows cold air when parked or idol. Has been doing that since I purchased it in 2018.

I experienced the car idling rough while in park and sounding like it wanted to die out. I took to dealer and they replaced an ignition coil.the check engine light came on. Check engine light just came on again yesterday...took it to autozone and they told me it was the ignition coil again. This will the 2nd time to have it fixed on my 2017.seems like Hyundai vehicles have a ton of issues with ignition coils. After I got my car back it violently shook and check engine light came on. I was on the highway and the speed started to decreased. I reached out to Hyundai corporation about replacement vehicle. I still have not heard anything. I am not the only one with the faulty ignition coils.

While driving in the expressway or road the car will suddenly shut off. All of the lights will come on in the dashboard and I have to put the car in neutral or park to start it back up. It will also shut off if I'm turning slowly around a corner or if I come to a complete stop after driving for awhile.

I had the recall on my car fixed but it is doing the same thing again. When I slow down it will just cut off on you.

In January of 2019, my car began shutting off while I was driving. The battery light would appear on the dashboard before the car would completely shut off. I tried to have it fix but nothing worked. I'm September 2019, as I was driving 60mph on the highway, I suddenly heard a loud noise after which my car shut off and would not start again. I was able to have it towed to the nearest Hyundai dealership and was told I needed a new alternator, battery, and there was a misfiring. All these issues were'fixed'. my car has continued to shut off and I had to bring the car back to the dealership at which I was told they could not find anything wrong with the car. Something is seriously wrong with this vehicle and I am anxious and scared to drive this car. I have had to buy 3-5 batteries since purchasing this vehicle in 2016. My car is currently at the dealership due to this issue.

The door lock actuators on both rear doors have failed preventing the doors from being opened from the inside or the outside because the locks will not disengage. This presents a serious safety issue since any rear passengers are forced to exit the vehicle through the front doors of the vehicle. This is a known issue with Hyundai vehicles and can cost several hundred dollars to repair a part that is not generally considered consumable.

While driving down the highway my headlights shut off completely. Leaving us driving in the dark. It has happened multiple times especially when trying to use blinkers or switch high beams on or off. I took my car to the dealership and they say it's the multifunction switch and want $372.84 to replace it. My warranty has just run out and I have already had to replace the thermostat and now this is out as well as the back door lock actuator. I bought the car new, it's a 2017. I feel the switch and possibly the back door actuator must be faulty.
