  • 90,000 miles
Air bag light has been illuminated since late 2013. Reading entries posted on site, and talking with former Hyundai mechanic, this is a wiring harness issue that at least 60 other people have complained about. Also experienced the steering issue where the bolts locking the wheel in place sheered off, I was lucky to get off the freeway in 2015 get it to a local shop to fix. As of 2018 the steering is problematic again with the steering wheel sticking and now a squeaking noise occurs when turning right.

problem #1

Mar 182015

XG350 6-cyl

  • 75,000 miles
While following a line of cars through a local city street my car accelerated coming close to the car in front. I brake, the car did not respond. I used all my strength on the brake pedal and the car responded by going faster. To avoid a collision, I swerved to the right into a convenience store driveway. However, I hit the bumper of the car in front of me and this finally stopped my car. I read on a website that this is not an uncommon problem with this model. Why has there been no recall to solve this problem?
