There is a current recall since September, 2023, with no remedy to date. In addition, I have driven this vehicle very little after last having my car serviced at the dealership, just over a year now, which seemed to not be sounding right in the engine, so it alarmed me, and all started feeling overwhelming since going to the dealership for repairs. I see there is an engine recall on the 2015 Veloster, though not the 2014? Yet they are claiming that both issues can cause fires. My vehicle has less than 100K miles if I remember correct from when I last looked. it's been months since I've even driven the vehicle, as I've not felt safe or comfortable doing so. My vehicle seems to have a lot of the same symptoms as the 2015 Veloster recall. i have been nervous to take it back to the same dealer, though I've also been too nervous to let just any mechanic look at it. When the dealer last changed my oil, a bunch leaked out in my driveway, and I was told there's a safety overflow. In addition, my oil light came on, and I was simply told they forgot to reset it.

Sold a 2014 Hyundai Veloster with grinding brakes, acceleration problem, and vibration issues. I was told everything would be fixed. I returned the car within 24hrs. The car vibrates dangerously at 50mph and above. The car hesitates when taking off, trying to pass, or get on freeway. This is also dangerous because cars already going 70mph could of hit us while trying to get on freeway. Sometimes while giving the car gas it would just rev up the rpms without doing anything. This also scared me into returning the car. I went back to test drive the car to see if problems were fixed, and the mi gente auto dealership told me they just replaced tires and that fixed the problem. I told them they can keep the car, because I don't want to keep coming back for same issues. I was threatened with repossession will be added to my credit.
