Owner Complaints (4)
Your car suddenly pulls sharply to the right on its own, even when you're not turning the steering wheel. This happens without warning and your mechanic couldn't identify the cause. The dealership has stated the part needed to fix this issue is no longer in production, so the vehicle cannot be repaired, and Hyundai declined to help. This could involve diagnosing and replacing the steering system component that's causing the unwanted pull.

Your panoramic sunroof glass suddenly shattered while driving without any impact or prior warning, creating a safety hazard from falling glass and potential driver distraction. This failure matches a known defect covered under Hyundai Technical Service Bulletin 19-BD-007H and a previous class action settlement, though Hyundai denied your claim because the time limit expired despite your mileage still being within coverage. Fixing this will require replacing the panoramic sunroof glass assembly and investigating why it failed spontaneously.

Your backup camera works intermittently and doesn't function reliably, making it unsafe to back up your vehicle. The dealership says they need to observe the problem occurring to diagnose it, but it only happens sometimes. The issue may involve the camera connection, wiring, or the display system.

I FIRST NOTICED WHITE SMOKE COMING FROM THE BACK OF MY SUV. I PULLED INTO A STORE PARKING LOT AND TRIED TO PARK. MY MAIN BRAKES FAILED. I THEN TRIED USING MY EMERGENCY BRAKE. IT TOO FAILED. WHITE SMOKE STARTED COMING THROUGH THE VENTS SO I TURNED THEM AWAY FROM ME AND TRIED SHIFTING TO PARK WITH NO SUCCESS. I THEN PRESSED THE MAIN BRAKE AGAIN AND WAS ABLE TO SHIFT TO PARK. THEN SOMEONE IN THE PARKING LOT YELLED, "YOUR CAR'S ON FIRE! GET OUT!" I GRABBED MY KEYS, CELL PHONE AND WORK BADGE AND AS I WAS GETTING OUT, BLACK SMOKE BEGAN FILLING THE CABIN. STORE EMPLOYEES TRIED TO PUT OUT THE FIRE WITH FIRE EXTINGUISHERS WITH NO SUCCESS. WITHIN 10 MINUTES THE FRONT HALF OF THE SUV WAS ENGULFED IN FLAMES! I HAVE NO CLUE WHAT COULD HAVE CAUSED THE BRAKES TO FAIL NOR THE REASON FOR THE ENGINE TO CATCH FIRE! I HAVE VIDEO AND PHOTOS FOR VIEWING.
