Vehicle is burning through oil without having oil light engaged. Vehicle is going through two quart + of oil every 3 weeks. Just added 2 quarts of oil 3 weeks ago when the car would not accelerate past 5mph and rough idled (this turned out to be caused by a different issue still being diagnosed), I added the oil as dip stick showed no oil on the stick. Light did not come on. Took to independent mechanic this week who stated I had no oil in the vehicle. Can not go 3 month/3000 miles for an oil change or the engine would be damaged. Have taken the vehicle several times to Valvoline who indicate no oil with no oil pressure light on, each time. This has been constant for 2 years. Each mechanic shop states the GDI engines are burning through oil. No oil leaks have been detected. This issue could result in serious engine damage.

First the turbo stopped working n smoking. Took it to the dealer n they had it for a month.. Get it back one day later had to have it towed. Vehicle was there for another 2 weeks got it back and it started to smoke. I pressed on the gas pedal n the car wouldn-??t move! The first time the turbo was supposed to be replaced I believe ever since it was sent there to be replaced it was never the same. I still have the car and it will not start. The turbo n engine are filled with oils.

The Plug that connects to the AC control Unit is burned and damaged. In fact, When I replaced it its smells like smoke. It is the third time since 2018 that I changed the unit. I decided to officially make a complaint because I saw that this vehicles and exact models from 2014-2016 where included but My year not ( 2013). I called the Hyundai and they told me that I needed to buy the unit and go fix it in a dealer. I found it unfair because is a defect of the car not something People can make to the car. The campaing nunber is: 16-01-070 from december 2016 ( and my car where not included) The problem is not the unit is the plug that cames from the car that connects to the unit that melts and gets burned.( but the unit is damaged due to this)

The blower fan only blows slightly and the knob does not work. This was a known issue with the 2014, but not the 2013. This causes a significant safety concern to someone living in extreme heat, especially children and the elderly.

- Painted Post , NY, USA

This complaint is regarding safety recall #23V651000 related to my 2013 Hyundai Veloster. In September of 2023, a potential problem with the ABS module was identified which could cause an engine compartment fire while driving or parked. It is now February, 2024, 5 months later and there is still no resolution. This is unacceptable. I am driving a vehicle which could result in personal property damage and/or personal injury or death. Being told to park the vehicle outdoors and away from structures is not a long term solution until the recall remedy is completed. How much longer am I, and others going to have to wait for a resolution to this issue?

- Chester Springs, PA, USA

I am concerned with the notice of a recall which I received June 2023 concerning a possible electrical fault in the ABS module which could cause a fire in the engine compartment. There is NO fix available. I called my local Hyundai garage and the Hyundai corp office and they both told me the same thing and that is they do not have a fix and do not know when one will be available' I find this unacceptable and stalling by the Hyundai Company I am told that I should park the car away from the house as it might catch fire wether the car is running or not. After 8 months i can only suppose the Hyundai Company is ignoring the problem because it will cost them money I would be most grateful if you could light a fire under Hyundai, so to speak, so that they will solve this problem [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Climate control switch melted and caused a small fire. I had to pull my dash apart very quicky to put it out. The Hyundai dealership would not help me even though a 2014 Elantra and Veloster has had technical service bulletins regarding this issue. They charged me 200$ dollars to tell me the switch melted even though I had already pulled it apart and showed them the issue. I spoke to Hyundai USA about it and they did not help me either. I bought the part and replaced it myself after the dealer tried to tell me it was almost 700$ for the repair. My son was in a panic because the cab of the car was filling with smoke as we were driving. No warnings or anything.

Ac controls started melting and almost caused a fire.

- Phoenix, AZ, USA

A wire from the ac fan controller gets extremely hot and the fan controller melts. Could possibly be a fire hazard under the right circumstances.

- Phoenix, AZ, USA

Then wiring for the temperature control knob is faulty. When taken apart to see the problem it has very obviously melted from extreme overheating causing the plastic to deform and render the knob and a/c power button unusable. God only know what other electrical shorts and melted components are under the hood. They had a recall for other year models just not mine. Clearly it-??s a universal issue and should be fixed accordingly.

The blower for the AC and heater stopped working. It evidently caught fire because there is a burnt smell. When I searched the problem, I noticed that you already did a recall for this but left out the 2013 models. This is extremely dangerous as it could catch fire while driving. Please add the 2013s to the recall.

- Midland, TX, USA

I was driving and the blower control switch stopped working and I had smoke coming out of my dash. Later my husband took it apart and the back of the switch and the part that plugged into the switch was burned. Without a blower, I don't have any defrost, fan, or ac option which could be dangerous in the winter if things ice over. We called Hyundai and they are very well aware of this issue and they said that we could replace it and the same thing could happen in 2 months and they aren't doing anything about it. This part was replaced once by the dealer while my car was under warranty. The only indication that there was a problem is when it stopped working along with the smoke issue.

The manual heater control unit, theinternal switch for the blower (fan) speed control become inoperative- the wire gets too hot and burns which makes this not work and could catch fire.
