After being jumped once and running properly the car no longer has any kind of power. The rear battery is working fine. My mechanic had also told me that the wheels had a certain type of spring like mechanism that was ready to shoot off the car and that the car needs a very expensive large piece of plastic to regulate airflow if it is going to pass inspection. The vehicle has not been in accidents and nothing out of the ordinary has happened to it to cause these things

Engine failure. I bought this vehicle as used vehicle on Feb 9,2019. It had approx. 123000 miles and on March 15, 2019, the engine failed without any warning. And vehicle stalled all of sudden, had to spend $3450 to replace it with 2012 Kia hybrid engine. I am not sure the cause of engine failure. But the mechanic said the engine block had cracked and had two holes on either sides(image attached). Need justice! can you help NHTSA? please reach me [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

Vehicle began loosing acceleration from a stop position. Check engine light came on. Code read (P0A2D). Faulty hybrid motor or associated wiring. Dealer says need new transmission according to tsbs. No warranty. Not covered under hybrid 10yr./100,000 warranty for subsequent owners. Manual clearly includes transmission as part of hybrid system. Don't know what to believe. If the hybrid motor is at fault, why won't Hyundai honor their warranty. If it's the transmission and manual states as part of hybrid system, why don't they honor warranty.

February 2017 at around 85,000 miles while driving the car on a residential street approaching a red light stopped moving. The oil, battery and engine lights went on, I turned car off and turned back on and it moved I drove right to the dealership. After testing they could find nothing wrong. The same thing happened again September 28 as I approcahed a traffic light and had my foot on the break, the light changed and I put my foot on the gas and the car wouldn't move. This time the car (100,500 miles ) it finally would sputter forward enough to be pushed to the side of the road.. and the engine light stayed on. The car even in park was jerking back and forth.this is in addition to the last few weeks the car had morning hesitation after sitting overnight but then was fine. The car was in for service about 3000 miles ago. This is a safety hazard.anyone driving.

While driving on a busy road at 40mph my car suddenly downshifted and would not move. As I tried pressing on gas to accelerate the car slowly went up to 5 on the speedometer and stopped moving again. I luckily did not get hit from behind or cross main road to get into a side street for me to safely get out of vehicle and call for a tow. Since purchasing this car used 3 months ago this hybrid would always jerk when driving as if it is slipping gears, but had realized it is the blue drive mode kicking in when driving. The repair shop states there is a defect in the transmission, unfortunatlely I am not the original owner which would be covered under 100,000. My car has 95,000 but I am second owner which Hyundai states it only covers up to 60,000. Please investigate this safety issue and demand a recall. I unfortunatley have to get the car fixed since I am making payments on the loan but am going to frightened on driving this car in anticipation of this happening again. I called your hotline and there have been other cases like this as well as people reporting this online. I am documenting everything if I need to claim a lemon and would like your help and response to what and why Hyundai is not recalling this car.

The vehicle pulls to the left during acceleration after adjustment at the dealership. The vehicle pulled to the right durring acceleration when brought to the dealer for repair. The dealer told me no problem with the steering of these vehicles had been reported. I found out by searching the internet this problem is a know defect with this make and model. I am turning to you because the dealer is refusing to correct the problem and tried to blame it on a flat tire and ruined rim as a result of hitting a curb. The vehicle has no bent or damaged suspension parts and clearly is a defective 0 center balance issue. Please help me resolve this problem.
