I am reporting a safety-related engine defect involving sudden internal engine failure, excessive oil consumption, persistent bearing knock, and overheating of the catalytic converter. The vehicle repeatedly triggered Bank 1&2O2 sensor fault codes due to oil blow-by and thermal overload. A certified mechanic documented the engine is failing internally and that the cat. converter has been damaged as a direct result of engine defect. The failure pattern is consistent with known Hyundai engine defect investigations involving bearing wear, oil consumption, stalling, and fire risk. The overheating cat. converter presents a significant safety hazard, including potential engine seizure. I purchased the vehicle used in March 2025. I am the third owner. Despite maintaining the vehicle responsibly (Regular oil changes), the engine failure progressed rapidly. Hyundai Motor America has denied a goodwill repair solely on the basis of mileage, even though the defect clearly originated long before my ownership and aligns with previously identified safety-related engine issues. Additionally, Hyundai's records show that this vehicle had an engine-related recall active during prior ownership period; the recall was never performed by the Hyundai dealership that sold the vehicle to the previous owner. This raises concerns about improper recall handling and whether the defect should have been corrected before the vehicle was resold. Given the safety implications, the documented defect pattern, and the unresolved recall history, I am requesting NHTSA's review of this matter. The engine failure poses a serious safety risk; Hyundai's refusal to address a known defect, the vehicle is unsafe to operate. Timeline: 2014 Hatchett Hyundai West, KS 17,665 mi.; 2017-H.

I took my car to Gilroy Hyundai November 11, 2025 at 10:30 a.m. because my engine was not running normal, it shook lightly while driving at an incline and the engine light would not shut off. they charged me $284.99 to tell me what needed to be fixed, engine was not looked per Ernesto Garcia. Ernest told me they go by mileage, not actually checking the engine. He also stated that the mechanic drove it and it was fine. December 28, I was driving from Chico, CA back home to Morgan Hill, CA and the car shook and just died and left me on the side of Highway 505 Winters/San Francisco. I had it towed to Moorehead Automotive in Fairfield, CA and they said this car needs a new engine. I still owe 7,000.00 on this car and have had trouble with both Hyundai and Power (the additional insurance I purchased when i bought this car.)

ABS, EPS, check engine light appeared on dashboard then car’s steering wheel stiffed and car lost power. Vehicle’s hood smells burnt and has fumes come out after driving for 10-20minutes. My safety and my family’s was endangered as this happened while driving on the road. Not at a stop sign or a red traffic light but while driving. The dealer has refused to inspect/address the issue without having me paid close to $2,500.00 for other repairs.

The climate control switch melted. Available for inspection I was getting smoked out by plastic fumes. Researched this issues with all data No No lights.

Motor started knocking yesterday 4/8/25 which was immediately followed by multiple dash sensors for oil and battery. As I pulled over to get assistance at a Jiffy Lube, the car stalled and wasn’t drivable but they also confirmed that the car should not be driven for risk of blowing the engine. Will be taking my vehicle in for an evaluation as soon as I am able to get it towed for further inspection and diagnostics.

Spun rod bearings. Noticed that was the issue with play in piston doing a screwdriver test and noticing thru under the oil pan before tear down. Had to pry the bearing off with pliers and hit with a screwdriver to remove. I have plenty of photos and videos

my car 2015 Hyundia Veloster has been under recall since 2021 for connecting rod failure in engine and oil leaking around spark plugs that could cause a fire plus what the other recall is. Hyundai Corp refuses to repair my car, it has ksds, oil consumption, refuse to do engine inspection, wanting to charge me for items related to a recall. my car as stated with you before eating oil, poor compression stalls knock loses power i recently had to pay 3200.00 for catalytic converters so i would have a car only to find out it could happen again due to recall number198. i need someone to help me get this resolve. why should have to replace my engine when it under recall and you can't sell your car due to that? i have been fighting Hyundai Corp for two years i had oil around my spark plugs in 2023, black spark plugs 2024

The contact owns a 2015 Hyundai Veloster. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, there was an abnormal knocking sound and smoke coming from the engine compartment. The vehicle then lost motive power. The contact was able to pull over to the shoulder of the roadway, where the vehicle was able to be restarted. An unknown warning light was flashing before the vehicle had lost power; however, there were no warning lights illuminated once the vehicle was restarted. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, who was unable to duplicate the failure and had not provided the contact with a specific diagnostic report. The vehicle was not repaired. After investigating the failure, the contact related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 20V746000 (Engine), but the VIN was not included.

The Hvac heater control assembly and panel shorted out and melted all the components (wiring harness, connector, temperature control knob). All these parts need replaced. There's no AC, heat or defrost, etc...until this is fixed. Also this is a 16 year old drivers vehicle and could have resulted in a much worse incident if she had been driving it when it occurred.

nothing has been done for the recall engine, Hyundai recall 198 which states damage engine can increase the risk of fire or engine stall increasing the risk of a crash. why is Hyundai selling cars that are recall for engines . as stated before oil consumption, jerks, no compression, going up hills is rough, cabin gets warmer than usual Hyundai Corp told me that the clogged catalytic converters were no cause by engine failure is this correct i have to pay for them. i have the recall for the brakes finally making a appt can you help me my engine is getting worse i'm afraid to drive it.

my car is recall for connecting rod bearing failure hyundai gave us a extended warranty for this 15 years or 150,00 miles plus i have 20 year 200,00 mile warranty too my engine has oil consumption a quart every 2- 3 weeks been in the Hyundai shop October 2023 for oil around spark plugs jerking engine trying to stall i had my car tow they did a tune up charge me for towing and spark plugs said it was part of engine failure. next in 04/24 engine light came on compression has been getting worse over two years car tow was told catalytic converters were clogged which is not covered so there another bill on me which i think at 124 plus mileage was due to engine problems but Hyundai Corp denied this of course.

The connection to my AC control knob burned up and my AC only works between 2 & 3. This could have easily caused a fire as the connection and the knob are melted and burned. How has there not been a recall for this issue as there are many complaints that have been reported on this issue. This is a safety hazard!

On 06/252024 I was driving on my way home and my cars climate control were unresponsive and I smelt something burning. I arrived home removed the center console of my vehicle and noticed the AC control plug had melted and was burnt.

I noticed the engine was losing oil constantly and the exhaust was emitting black smoke often, I had to refill the oil about once a month, eventually the car broke down and took it to a Hyundai dealership. They said they needed to perform a leakdown/compression test on the car, and $585 to perform a diagnostic. Then they said the leak down/compression test showed the exhaust valves had broken and they would need to do a long block replacement. Also mentioned they needed to have Hyundai allow them to release that long block as it is part of a recall on other vehicles. Later was told Hyundai did not approve it under the warranty.

The contact owns a 2015 Hyundai Veloster. The contact stated while driving at undisclosed speeds, the vehicle started to decelerate independently, and there was a ticking sound coming from the engine. The contact discovered NHTSA Campaign Number: 20V746000 (Engine). The vehicle was towed to the dealer; however, the failure could not be duplicated. The recall repair was not performed. The manufacturer was not made aware of the issue. The failure mileage was approximately 135,000.

This has happened on 4 different occasions. I'm on the highway and my speedometer slams to zero and everything involving the brakes lights up in my dash. The car continues to drive but it's pretty worrisome as I drive 70mph around alot of traffic. I have been able to pull over every time but it's still beyond unacceptable. I've had my Veloster a little under a year and I don't know if the other recall involving the motor being replaced was taken care of. It was a recall associated with my VIN. I have a video of it happening but for some reason I try to upload it on the app and it won't allow me to. It is the proper format.

The safety recall on my vehicle has been open for nearly 7 months with a risk of fire. There is still no status as to when my vehicle can be serviced to prevent this risk of fire. I find this lack of urgency completely unacceptable considering the risk.

I was on the highway and looked at my speedometer and the mph was at 0. The abs and the brake light warnings came on and I couldn't accelerate and hardly brake. I pulled to the shoulder immediately. Took a couple hundred feet to finally stop. It was a very scary moment thinking my brakes have gone. I put it in park waited a moment turned it off... waited about 5 mins and it turned over just wanted to get it home

15 Warranty repairs with less than 60K mileage that were discovered for the vehicle’s history.

The contact called on behalf of his girlfriend who owns a 2015 Hyundai Veloster. The contact stated while his girlfriend was driving approximately 60 MPH, the check engine warning light illuminated. The contact stated that the vehicle decelerated independently, and the driver pulled over to the side of the road and turned off the vehicle. The vehicle was restarted and driven to an independent mechanic and was diagnosed with engine failure. The vehicle was taken to an unknown dealer where it was diagnosed with engine failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact stated that the failure was related to an unknown NHTSA Campaign Number related to the engine. The manufacturer was contacted and confirmed that the VIN was not included in the unknown recall. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and a case was opened. The failure mileage was approximately 130,000.

engine runs too lean had T/B and104898 MAss airflow and O2 sensors replaced less than a year ago still same problem also consuming too much oil,

Vehicle blows fuses when plugging multiple items also burns up items such as car heater (plug in one) and other devices.

The contact owns a 2015 Hyundai Veloster. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the engine temperature increased, and the check engine warning light illuminated before the engine failed and the vehicle stalled. The vehicle was later driven to the local dealer who diagnosed that the head gasket was faulty and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired but the failure persisted. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer who diagnosed and determined that the catalytic converter was faulty and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, but no assistance was offered. The contact stated that the engine was previously replaced under a Manufacturer Service Campaign. The failure mileage was 129,000.

The contact owns a 2015 Hyundai Veloster. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 23V651000 (Service Brakes, Hydraulic) however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue. The contact had not experienced a failure. VIN tool confirms parts not available.

HVAC system has failed twice, upon inspecting, connections are melted. This is a fire RISK. Fuses constantly blow. Check engine light constantly comes on and after having auto zone diagnose, issues include Power Train System (P2261), anti-lock brake system - Wheel Speed Sensor (all 4) show invalid/No Signal. Constant knocking noise under the engine which related to the Rod bearing recall. This car is a FIRE and SAFETY HAZARD waiting to happen. My outlets barely produce power, my lights flicker constantly, my battery has been replaced multiple times, as well as the HVAC once.

HVAC system wiring is melted, only works intermittently between knob #3-4. check engine light comes off and on for Wheel Speed Sensor (all 4) Invalid/No Signal. Fuses consistently blow. Multiple complains have been made by other 2015 Hyundai Veloster Turbo owners. In addition to these issues being a HUGE fire risk, there was a new fire risk safety recall issued in sept 2023 with no resolution. Hyundais only current resolution for this is to “park away from structures in the meantime”, and will send a letter out once resolved. The HVAC system has been replaced once prior.

The car I bought in February in a used car lot was, per the salesperson, in excellent condition, had recently done oil changes, and had allegedly no failures. After less than 3k miles, I got stalled on the freeway with a knocking noise; Frank Hyundai mechanics diagnosed it with a CVV oil sensor red flag. I then paid for the repairs after getting denied from both my Hyundai warranty and my extended warranty. This was neglect when I drove that car for just a few months, like a weekend car, less than 3k miles. The car was still stalling on the freeway, shooting smoke, and the check engine light came on. I miraculously made it in one piece to work; however, the car had to be towed back to Frank Hyundai, where, to this day, they still have not been able to repair or precisely diagnose my vehicle, so I have been without my vehicle for almost a month and a half. I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one with this problem; I think it's unfair to pay for the past owner's negligence.

I bought this vehicle from a used car lot in February 2023, not 2022, and drove it under 3k miles; when I took it, it had 86k miles, and the check engine light came on. I took it to FRANK HYUNDAI, where, to this day, have not been able to help me; all this time, I, the consumer, had to chase down the repair guy assigned to my car and, only to be vaguely told it was sludge and metal shedding. It might be my misuse or neglect when I had driven the damn thing before even recommended servicing or an oil change was needed. I also called Hyundai Motors corporate, where a case manager suggested a goodwill repair, but nothing had been done. I would appreciate any help NHTSA could provide as there are campaigns on this model car with engine rod failures, and the damn extended warranty should apply to subsequent owners.

Engine blinking and smell burnt while driving, ABS button turn on automatically

The contact owns a 2015 Hyundai Veloster. The contact stated while driving at slower speeds and depressing the brake pedal, it seemed the ABS engaged, and the vehicle slowed down significantly. Additionally, the brakes were dragging. The contact stated that upon depressing the brake pedal again, the vehicle operated as needed. The contact stated that the failure occurred intermittently. The check engine warning light was illuminated. Additionally, the contact stated that the brake pads had shown premature wear and tear. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where the brake calipers, rotors, and brake pads were replaced; however, the failure recurred after 4,500 miles driven. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 12,500

My cars lights (headlights, gage cluster lights, dash lights, radio screen light, etc..) and screen for my radio and back up camera, all turn off by themselves, for maybe 1 second or 2, while driving. This happens randomly, no warning, no special conditions, just out of nowhere, and for no reasons. Since I bought the car in September of 2020 (used, as is) it has done it now 7 or 8 times, with tonight being the most recent occurrence. I don't know how to have it checked or verified by a technician because there's no forewarning before it happens. It's completely random and unexpected. It's very scary, especially with my children in the car.

Engine had no oil, starting making a knocking noise.

Engine failure outside of normal warranty period. However oil consumption is the cause. Hyundai allows for 1quart of oil loss every 1000 miles. There should be no oil loss. Before I could get an oil consumption test my motor started knocking. The dealership was supposed ask for goodwill assistance but never did. They found no compression in cylinder 4 and stated since it wasn’t a rod bearing failure they would not cover it. Also they are using third party BBB to turn down complaints which should be a violation of the consumers rights. They are paid by Hyundai to reject claims.

99% sure the vehicle’s rod bearing is what is knocking

The car was repaired at a Hyundai dealership less than a month prior to the incident. I was driving down a road with no one around besides me and my passenger when all of a sudden Orange sparks start flying out the sides of the car, I slow down and pull over as fast as I could, then I noticed fire on the passenger side and hurried us out the car. It proceeded to burn away until the firefighters came.

Rattling noise is occurring when accelerating and on cold start. This has been occurring for quite some time.

Rod bearing in the fourth piston is failing and there is an existing TSB for this problem on this year (2015) of Veloster however Hyundai is saying that it doesn't cover this engine model so we are going to be out $7,000 for a new engine. Seems like the engine is the same only difference is the turbo so seems like this model should be part of the TSB as well. The problem has been confirmed by a mechanic at his shop C&C automotive in Fayetteville AR

The contact owns a 2015 Hyundai Veloster. The contact stated that the steering wheel had become loosened and was shaking while driving at various speeds. There was no warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was discovered that the plastic bushing inside the steering column was defective and needed to be replaced. The contact was informed by the mechanic that there might have been a recall on the vehicle related to the failure. The mechanic referred him to the dealer. The dealer informed him that there were no recalls on the vehicle, and he was then referred to the NHTSA.gov website. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 64,000.

Three times now my 2015 Veloster has been in the shop for the same issues. Loss of power while driving. They did software update first time. That was a year ago. It has been actiing sluggish since. Then two weeks ago my husband was driving it made a loud noise and the power went to limp mode and engine light came on. Took 4 hours for a tow truck to pick up him and my car. I took it to the shop again, they had it for almost 2 weeks. Told me the spark plugs were bad. They replaced them. That didn't help. Then they said the Catalytic converter was bad. So they replaced that. I picked it up today 4/20/23 at 2:00pm. I then drove 7 miles from the shop and heard a loud noise and the power reduced to 20 MPH I could not go any faster it was in limp mode and I crawled it back to the dealership. I told them I got an extended warranty 3 years ago and I got notified my car would need a new motor. They told me it would take a long time to get a motor and they were sure it was not my motor. I can't afford a tow truck bill again and I can't afford to keep fixing things it may not need they are just guessing. They told me it may take awhile this time because they have no idea what is wrong with it. But it was scary doing 45 mph with speed of traffic and just lose power. My husband was doing 65 MPH when it happened to him. I have babied my car since new and I only have 60,000 miles on it. I hardly have broken it in. I don't know what to do now. I don't want this to happen and have and accident because of it or a fire. I have grandkids in my car with me and I don't feel safe anymore.

We purchased the vehicle in March 2022 and in May 2022 the engine light came on and there was knocking in the engine until finally the engine quit while driving. Upon inspection of the engine it appeared to have blown as there was oil all under the hood. The car was towed and serviced at a Hyundai dealer and I was told it needed a new engine. They put another engine in the car. We got the car back December 31, 2022 with the "new/used" engine and that night the engine overheated and had to be towed back to the dealer that did the repairs costing almost $10K. They repaired the engine again, saying that they put another engine in and we got the car back in late February 2023. April 2023 the car engine light came on again and the car began to smoke. My son had been driving, pulled into our driveway, popped the hood to see why it was smoking and the car then caught fire! My son could have been seriously hurt or even worse! The car has been inspected by our insurance company and is now claiming a total loss. I have since emailed the pictures of the car to the service manager at the dealer where the work was done and he is claiming that he can't tell by the pictures what caused the fire. This is the SECOND engine they put in this car!

At this time failure is unknown. The engine has a knocking noise. There 8s a current recal for the 2015 and 2016 hyundai velosters and im told my car does not qualify because the build date is two days before the recall dates

The contact owns a 2015 Hyundai Veloster. The contact stated while driving at various speeds, the engine was running rough causing the vehicle to vibrate abnormally. The vehicle also lost motive power. The contact had to depress the accelerator pedal several times before the vehicle would respond and drive as needed. The contact stated that the vehicle had also begun to consume an abnormal amount of engine oil. The contact stated that the check engine warning light was constantly flashing. The contact had taken the vehicle to a local dealer, where it was diagnosed and determined that the catalytic convertor needed to be replaced. The vehicle had not been repaired. The manufacturer had been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 94,000.

Have a rod bearing that has worn prematurely, Was told that there are recalls Hyundai Recall 198 for this problem with other vehicles of this same year, make, and model but min was not included. Hyundai Motor America (Hyundai) is recalling certain 2015-2016 Veloster, 2012 Santa Fe, 2011-2013 Sonata Hybrid, and 2016 Sonata Hybrid vehicles. The connecting rod bearings inside the engine may wear prematurely, which over time can result in engine damage.

check engine light has been coming on and off for over a year, either comes back negative and goes away on its own or i’m told there’s a plethora of problems that need to be fixed. it’s been on now for about a month and i’ve been told again it could be anything. there is a recall on this engine and i was never notified

Driver entered the car and closed the driver side door. Car was in park in driveway. Driver tried to vent the moon roof and the glass of the moon roof shattered. Glass rained down upon driver and flew all over the driveway and the lawn

As I was turning off a main road into my neighborhood at night with little visibility for oncoming traffic, I lost power steering and the car began to shake. I was able to coast into my driveway. As I coasted into my driveway I noticed my engine, battery, and water light illuminated. Upon parking my car, I returned to where I lost my power steering found my damper pulley/crankshaft pulley and the crankshaft bolt in the middle of the street where I lost my power steering. I called the dealership and they took a look at it and are saying the entire engine needs to be replaced.

Hi its burning oil and oil consumption and i send it to the dealer and they confirm and agree that its manufacturer issue and part of recall engine , but they declined to follow the process of oil consumption and engine recall without accepting reason and my car milage 102412 .

I brought in my car to the Irvine Tuttle-Click Hyundai Service location because the recall said my car had a possibility of engine fires, and my car has been with this service location for more than four months because the employees at this location inspected my car and confirmed that it needed to be replaced. There were no issues with my car prior to bringing it to this location and no warning lights were appearing on my dash to alert me of any problems. Now that they claim that they have completed replacing my engine, they are claiming that the alternator on my car is now damaged and needs to be replaced for $535.15, and if I do not replace it my car will not start without a jump start. Before bringing my car into this location there was no problems getting my car to start. The representative I spoke to claimed the part no longer works because the engine is new and the preexisting parts are old so they will most likely be damaged now because they are unable to work with the new engine. Again there were no issues with my car outside of the recall. It was running perfectly with no issues before I brought it to this service center and the only reason I brought it in was because I got the recall notice in the mail. Along with this issue they have had my car for since May 20th and it is now October 1st, because of this new issue they still have my car even though they claim to have completed the recall service. Also throughout the entire four months of my car being at their location they were not communicating with me at all regarding any of the progress with my car. Any communication was from me calling for updates on the services which were met with incomplete answers. Now that they are attempting to charge me for the part that they claim is damaged, the representative I have been working with and the front desk have not been picking up my calls.

Unknown me and my kids got on the highway to go to the mall and it did just fine on the way there but on the way back it lost acceleration my engine light started to blink off and on and then we started to hear a knocking noise when I stopped I cut it off and then restarted it and the knocking got loud apond starting it and then when I push on the gas it knocked hard seems like

Blower motor stops working about every 1.5 years. It was initially reported as a blower motor recall and the dealer replaced it twice but it went out a 3rd time about 2.5 years ago. They searched for the problem after realizing they had replaced the blower motor twice but could not locate the defect, at which point they charged me over $300.00 for their efforts to locate the problem. They wanted to keep looking for the problem but I told them no, just put it back together that I wasn't going to pay them to search for their defect. I have since been told by someone who claimed to be a mechanic for Hyundai that it is a computer chip problem that requires them to pull a lot of things on the dash to replace the chip and it is not cheap. I have a mechanic that is trying to get the chip and install it for me but I won't know for certain that this is the problem until the chip is replaced. I have driven the car for about 2.5 years without heat or air conditioning but can't work when it rains because the windshield fogs up in the rain and I can't see. I also can't drive the car when I can't get the windshield cleared of ice. Now the engine is burning oil but there's no recall for that issue according to your website. The car now has 173,624 mile on it.

The contact owns a 2015 Hyundai Veloster. The contact stated after purchasing the vehicle online, he noticed the vehicle was making an abnormal noise. The contact stated no warning light was illuminated. The contact took the vehicle to the local dealer, where it was diagnosed with needing the engine to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired.

The failure mileage was approximately 107,000.

Since purchasing my car in 2015, I've had to have the A/C knob replaced 3 times for it melting on the inside and disconnecting, being unable to control the fan. That seems extremely hazardous and ridiculous that nothing has been said about it before. I've searched many forums and it has been a common from problem for many people with this same car. Just so happened that someone who mentioned theirs was smoking inside of the car suggested we can actually report the issue, so I am submitting mine in hopes it's be noticed.

ENGINE LOCKED AND STARTER WAS FIRE BURNING WITH NO PREVIOUS ISSUES

I have a Hyundai Veloster 2015 base (dual-clutch transmission) that has 152,000 miles. I’ve regularly kept up with maintenance. Fully synthetic oil changed every ~5k miles. About a month ago it got a brand new battery and a new alternator. I have some issues related to the transmission. My owners manual regarding transmission fluid says: TRANSMISSION FLUID: -Checking 6-speed automatic transmission fluid: The automatic transmission does not have a transmission fluid dipstick. Refer to your scheduled maintenance information for scheduled intervals for fluid checks and changes. Your transmission does not consume fluid. I’ve recently experienced intermittent issues with the transmission failing to engage 1st gear from a stop. I have a code P073F as well as P0420 that’s been intermittent for months. (I know that’s the cat converter) The engine revs but does not accelerate at all from a stop on occasion. It happened three times in the week. Also have issues with clutch (DCT) overheating. When this occurs, I will see the current gear that I am in (usually D but it has occurred in all others except P, N, and R) begins to flash (usually three times) with a chime warning noise. Restarting the vehicle resolves the issue occasionally. Then, a few days ago, after coming off of the highway I was no longer to get the car to go faster than around 20 to 30 mph and began to hear a loud clanking/metallic sound seemingly from the engine. The gear indicator began blinking rapidly and continued to blink in every gear in D as well as S and even when I put the vehicle in park. After turning it off and waiting about 10 mins I turned it on and the “P” was no longer blinking. Decided to test driving it through the parking lot and began blinking again pretty much as soon as it shifted gears and began to hear a metallic noise again. I suppose that I assumed it being a closed-circuit or “sealed” transmission meant there wasn’t maintenance to be done on it.

After driving my 2015 Veloster (Auto DCT) for 15-20 mins, I will come to a stop sign/stop light and the car will stall. I will try and restart my car several times (4-5) before it actually starts. When it does, my gauge cluster will not register RPM's. After several more restarts (usually 6), the RPM's will finally register but my car will not go into Drive or Reverse. Several more restarts and my car will finally go into gear. This usually occurs over a 20 minute period.

The engine in my 15 Veloster is going out at only 140,00 miles despite tedious care and up keep. I've had a issue of rough idling, loss of power to the engine including a back fire. The engine makes a distinct ticking noise when the accelerator is pushed down. I have paperwork from a mechanic that reports these problems and them looking at it. They told me to take it to the dealership. I took it to a Bachman Hyundai and they said it definitely had connecting rod bearings issues. They were surprised it wasn't under recall. As was I when I saw online from multiple sources, that "2015-2016 Veloster, 2012 Santa Fe, 2011-2013 Sonata Hybrid, and 2016 Sonata Hybrid vehicle" had this recall. My VIN is not applied to this recall however. I have contacted Hyundai Customer care and they refuse to give me a explanation of this reasoning. I asked if they were made in different plants. He gave me no straight forward response, and declined my request to speak with a supervisor with more information. The dealership will not replace the engine, and I will not pay over 6,000 to replace a engine that "can increase the risk of a fire or it can cause an engine stall, increasing the risk of a crash."

Power loss engine stalling flashing check engine light won’t accelerate

I turned my car on after work and saw my check engine light turn on I went to autozone to have it checked and they gave me a paper stating it was P0441 engine code. Which has something to do with an incorrect purge flow and is harmful to you and eats away at your gas mileage. Don’t know if this is a safety issue.

Vehicle consuming oil... been to dealership several times for this issue... oil consumption test performed confirming usage of oil. latest measurment on oil consumption was 1.8 quarts in 1000 miles. Vehicle blowing blue smoke, back of vehicle covered in oil. Vehicle lost power/accleration on highway causing large saftey issue. PA# from hyundai is 100577. Received updated warranty extension from hyundai up to 150,000. Car is exhibiting multiple signs of recall involving connecting rods. Have spoken with hyundai corporate, am now on my third case number with them.. case 19177351

My 2015 Hyundai Veloster Turbo had no open recalls. On 12/26/21, while stopped at a light, the car stalled, then started smoking, and caught fire almost instantly. There are known fire issues for similar models for which there are open recalls, but my car was not a part of these recalls.

Back in 2015 my dad bought me a brand new Veloster Turbo. Within the first 100 days of ownership my car had multiple electrical power outages. I would be driving at a speed of 55mph (Speed Limit) and all of a sudden the car would stop working. The gas didn’t work and all the electrical parts went out. This event happened multiple times but off and on. When I took it to the dealership they didn’t experience the issue so they couldn’t resolve it. I had a case against Hyundai but they didn’t care. From the Whistleblower that just came out against Hyundais safety protocols I have a firm belief Hyundai knew that there engines were faulty and my life was almost taken. Another incident was on the freeway driving the speed limit and all of a sudden everything stops working and turns off. Almost got killed that day due to cars almost hitting my car on the side of the road. I have had so many issues with my car and its been at a dealership for 3 weeks now. Another electrical issue has happened after they installed a new engine. It happened off an on and wouldn’t start randomly. The battery was great and everything checked out. The dealership is now looking at my car because they experienced the issue themselves. I am looking for a settlement due to safety protocols being ignored.I have proof from Laguna Niguel Hyundai and the problem should be documented by them. However the dealership seems sketchy and very bad customer service. I have been worried about this ever since the first problem. Its been a roller coaster and has almost cost me my life.

MY CAR IS CHANGING GEARS WHILE IM DRIVING- I WILL APPEAR TO LOSE IMMEDIATE POWER TO THE VEHICLE ONLY TO SEE THAT THE CAR THAT WAS IN DRIVE, GOING 65 MILES PER HOUR, DROPS DOWN TO 20 IN SECONDS AND IS NOW IN 2ND GEAR OR NEUTRAL !

Hyundai has not completed a recall (20V746000) for my 2015 Veloster. I first contacted a local Hyundai dealership (Torpedo Gruppe) in Germany on 11 Aug 2021. After they told me they don't know anything about the recall, I contacted Hyundai America on 20 August. After working with a Case Manager (case #[XXX]) they put me in touch with a manager at Torpedo Gruppe on 18 Sep. I talked with the manager ([XXX]) the next day and dropped my vehicle off on 8 Oct, earliest appointment. After three weeks on 29 Oct I was informed that they would not be able to complete the recall for me. I called Hyundai America back up and had to open a new case (case #[XXX]). I am in the military stationed overseas in Germany at Ramstein Air Base. INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

My 2015 Veloster Reflex has been at Alan Jackson, Jackson TN. for 45 days. The vehicle was serviced there for campaigns/recalls. The primary complaint, engine failure while I was driving down Highway 70, the engine completely shut off, a defective engine, a product which Hyundai is at fault. The defective engine is consuming 1 quart of oil per 80 miles. I asked the service department to start the oil consumption test, Brian the lead technician, responded "You need a new engine." This safety hazard and economic burden has yet to be resolved. The Veloster is kept and maintained in immaculate condition. While the vehicle is only garage kept, it is now in the elements without protection, remaining on the lot of the service department for over 45 days, which is not in good faith a suitable resolution period. I commute 100 miles round trip for my profession as a University Professor in Microbiology for the University of Tennessee. My 2015 Veloster Reflex is my primary mode of transportation to various satellite and main campus obligatory profession duties. I am without transportation due to Hyundai's negalence in properly addressing these chief safety hazardous engine failures/massive oil (synthetic) consumption which is now blowing through my catalytic converter, exiting through my exhaust tips, turning them black and splattering oil along my rear bumper. The original case manager, Jose, failed to respond to this safety hazard in the 10 business days which Hyundai has set forth, as well as, when Jose would tried to be reached on my behalf, Jose was never available, in addition too, his voicemail was always full, which meant I could not leave a message. Again, is this how Hyundai's customer care is really showing through their actions that they do care?

The contact owns a 2015 Hyundai Veloster. The contact stated that while driving 50 MPH, the check engine light was illuminated, and the vehicle lost motive power. The interior cabin of the vehicle was vibrating when the contact pulled over. Knocking sounds were heard then the vehicle stalled. The contact was able to restart the vehicle however, the vehicle would not exceed 10 - 15 MPH. The vehicle was taken to the dealer and diagnosed that the connecting rod bearings inside the engine were worn prematurely, resulting in engine damage. The contact was informed that the engine needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired and was taken to an independent mechanic where it remained. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure but provided no assistance. The contact related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 20V746000 (Engine). The failure mileage was approximately 86,000.

The car began stalling while driving. Took to the Hyundai Dealer in Idaho Falls, ID and they changed spark plugs, did not repair the car, the coils, did not repair the car. Next, the car began vibrating and underpowered with the check engine light flashing. Made it to the dealership only to find out the motor suffered internal failure and is irreparable. This fits the exact description of the engine recalls that have impacted the other Veloster models. My car has been serviced regularly, with records of oil changes, tire rotations, and is currently in immaculate condition. The dealership has indicated that it will cost $8,000 to put in an engine from the salvage yard. I am certain that I am victim to the faulty engine.

I was driving on the highway and my car started stalling causing me to pull over and hasn't started since.

Bearing broke which lead to engine failure. I will have to be buying a new engine and turbo. Car stalled in the middle of a busy road. There were no prior indicators of a problem. All maintenance was up to date as well.

While washing my 2015 Veloster, the shark fin anntena just broke off, I see this has happened with hundreds of Hyundai Vehicles yet they have not done anything about it. The Dealer wants an outrageous $500 to $600 , I got crazy glue and carefully glued it back on. its solid as a rock now and only cost me $6.99 for the glue.

So my Manual Heater knob randomly stopped working as I was driving on 6/4/21 around 11 am as I was about to do an errand run for my family. I was told from a friend that there was a TSB issued on it and looked it up. I went to my local dealership Island Hyundai Staten island explained what was going on and they told me because it is a TSB and not a recall you will be responsible for the cost of repair. I told them why should I when this is a defective situation out of my hands I shouldn't have too.

I HAVE REPORTED AN ISSUE TO RONNIE FREEZE, SERVICE MANAGER AT O. B. , MS. HYUNDAI IN APRIL 2015. LESS THAN 3 MONTHS AFTER PURCHASE. I HAD ENGINE AND STARTING FAILURE FOR 15-25 MINUTES AFTER A CHECK SENSOR CODE POPPED UP. I GAVE THIS CODE TO SERVICE, AND ALL THEY COULD SAY WAS, 'WELL, I NEVER HEARD OF THAT'. LET ME KNOW IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN. AND IT DID, AND I REPORTED IT, AND... NOTHING. SAME OLD THING, DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT COULD BE. WELL AFTER THE THIRD TIME, I BEGAN TO FEEL THE CAR RUNNING STILL EVEN WHEN THE KEY WAS REMOVED. SOUNDS CRAZY BUT I HAD MULTIPLE FAMILY MEMBERS WHO WITNESSED THIS ISSUE. SCARY THAT I REPORTED THIS ALSO, BUT NOBODY KNEW ANYTHING TO DO. MR. FREEZE AT OLIVE BRANCH HYUNDAI ACTED LIKE I WAS CRAZY. I KNOW WHEN THERE IS AN ISSUE AND I SAY THAT I HAVE HAD ONE SINCE I SIGNED PAPERS ON 01/23/2015. I AM EXTREMELY LUCKY THAT A FIRE HASN'T STARTED WITH MY VEHICLE APPARENTLY NOT COMPLETELY SHUTTING DOWN. I FEEL THAT SOMEONE HAS KNOWN ABOUT THE CURRENT SITUATION WITH THE ENGINE AND I ALSO FEEL THAT I PURCHASED A LEMON THIS TIME WITH HYUNDAI. I LOVE MY CAR AND TRULY HATE THE FEELING OF NOT KNOWING IF I WILL BE SAFE THE NEXT TIME I GET IN MY VEHICLE TO DRIVE ANYWHERE. I FEEL THAT A SATISFACTORY RESPONSE IS NEEDED IMMEDIATELY FROM HYUNDAI AS TO WHAT I SHOULD EXPECT FROM THEM. I NEED ANSWERS RIGHT AWAY. IT HAS BEEN TOO LONG OR HYUNDAI TO DECIDE WHAT THE SOLUTION WILL BE. I NEED A RESPONSE FROM THE COMPANY NOW! I NO LONGER PUT 100% TRUST IN HYUNDAI. WHAT COULD THE RECALL COVER? A REPLACEMENT ENGINE, AND REPLACEMENT ROD BEARINGS, AND EVERYTHING ELSE THAT COULD BE DAMAGED? I FEEL LIKE HYUNDAI HAS FAILED MAJOR BY NOT DOING ANYTHING TO REMEDY THE DEFECT IN A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME!! I DON'T HAVE A SAFE CAR TO DRIVE ANYWHERE NOW. I WANT ANSWERS.

APPROXIMATELY 1 YEAR AFTER PURCHASING MY VEHICLE (ROUGHLY 2017) WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY MY FAN CONTROL KNOB STARTED SPINNING FREELY, IT STILL WORKED BUT CONCERNED I CALLED MY DEALERSHIP WHO ALL BUT DISMISSED THE COMPLAINT. A FEW MONTHS LATER THE KNOB STARTED WORKING INTERMITTENTLY AND WOULD ON OCCASION CUT OFF THE FAN IF I WERE TO HIT A BUMP. BY THE END OF 2019 THE KNOB HAD COMPLETELY STOPPED WORKING. I HAD HELD OFF ON GETTING IT REPAIRED AS IT IS AN EXPENSIVE FIX AND AFTER DOING QUITE A LOT OF RESEARCH I DISCOVERED IT IS AN EXTREMELY COMMON ISSUE WITH MY MAKE AND MODEL CAR. IT POSES A SERIOUS HAZARD AS WHERE I LIVE IT IS EXTREMELY HUMID AND COLD DURING THE WINTER MONTHS AND NO AMOUNT OF WIPING AND CLEANING THE WINDSHIELD GETS RID OF ALL OF THE FOG MEANING IT POSES A REAL THREAT BY LIMITING VISIBILITY.

CAR TURNED COMPLETELY OFF AND STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION. THE ENGINE IS BAD ON THE CAR. I SENT IT TO HYUNDAI WHERE THEY TRIED TO GET ME TO PAY 6000 FOR A ENGINE, EVEN THOUGH A RECALL IS ON THE CAR

WHILE DRIVING ON INTERSTATE 30 IN LITTLE ROCK ARKANSAS GOING ABOUT 70 I PUT THE CAR IN CRUISE CONTROL AS WERE APPROACH A HILL THE CAR SHOT UP TO 6000 RPM AND WOULD NOT SHIFT, I HAD TO TAKE CRUISE CONTROL OFF AND USE MANUAL DRIVE. I THOUGHT IT WAS POSSIBLY JUST A FLUKE ACCIDENT BUT THIS PROBLEM CONTINUED AND EVENTUALLY WHEN I PUT MY CAR AND DRIVE IT WON'T GO IT TAKES A WHILE FOR IT TO TAKE OFF AND WHEN IT DOES TAKE OFF IT JERKS INTO GEAR .. I HAS BEEN RUNNING ROUGH AND FEELS LIKE IT MISSING.. THEN ON THE INTERSTATE 67 /167 I WAS TRYING TOP ACCELERATE AND THE CAR STALLED FOR A GOOD MOMENT, ENOUGH TO SCARE ME TO I HAD TO PULL OFF ABRUPTLY..

IM WRITING TO COMPLAIN, THAT HYUNDAI HAD A RECALL ON MY VEHICLE ENGINE MALFUNCTION. THIS APPARENTLY WAS KNOWN OF EARLY DECEMBER AND I JUST FOUND OUT. WHEN I LOOKED IT UP THEY HAVE NOT STARTED THE RECALL PROCESS YET. POSSIBILITIES ARE ENGINE FIRE, STALLING AND ACCIDENTS. I WANTED TO MAKE PEOPLE AWARE OF WHAT WAS HAPPENING. THANK YOU.

TRAVELING FROM LITTLE ROCK ARKANSAS TO BRANSON MISSOURI MY PANORAMIC SUN ROOF EXPLODED OUT OF NOWHERE ON THE INNER STATE. SCARED ME AND MY FAMILY TO DEATH NO REASON FOR THE BREAKAGE THAT I CAN SEE NOTICE THAT THERE WAS A CLASS ACTION AGAINST THIS MODEL AND BRAND BUT I AM OUTSIDE THE DEADLINE MY VEHICLE IS A 2015 VELOSTER

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HYUNDAI VELOSTER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE WHILE DEPRESSING THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL DEALER KEITH HAWTHORNE HYUNDAI LOCATED AT 4712 WILKINSON BLVD, GASTONIA, NC 28056 WHO WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 89,000.

I HAD PROBLEMS WITH MY ENGINE. FOUND OUT THE ROD BEARING WAS GONE. CALL HYUNDAI AND POWER TRAIN WARRANTY EXPIRE WEEKS BEFORE IT HAPPENED. HAD TO SWAP ENGINES ON THE CAR BECAUSE IT WAS BAD. ALWAYS HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE ENGINE BURNING OIL REALLY BAD. I ALSO HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE TRANSMISSION GEARS DROPPING OUT OF NO WERE. LAST TIME IT HAPPENED WHEN I WHEN TO MAKE A RIGHT TURN AND SHIFT IT INTO 2ND GEAR AND WHEN IT SHIFT TO 3RD IT DROP TO 1. THANKFULLY THERE WASN'T ANY OTHER CAR BEHIND ME. IT WOULD OF DEFINITELY COST AN ACCIDENT AND HAD MY 1 YEAR OLD WITH ME. I TALK TO HYUNDAI AND TOLD ME THEY COULDN'T DO MUCH ABOUT IT BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT ANYONE ELSE WITH SAME ISSUES.

DRIVING ON MAJOR HIGHWAY, CAR LOST POWER. STEPPING ON THE GAS WOULD NOT ALLOW THE CAR TO MOVE. CAR IS NO LONGER ABLE TO BE DRIVEN AND HAD TO BE TOWED TO DEALERSHIP. WE ARE BEING TOLD THE ENGINE IS BAD AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THE ONLY DETAIL IS THERE IS A NOISE. THIS IS SIMILAR TO THE SAME PROBLEM AS THE EARLIER YEAR VEHICLES. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN AND LUCKILY NOBODY WAS INJURED AND THERE WAS NO CRASH OR FIRE. IT HAS TAKEN 4 DAYS TO GET A DIAGNOSTIC FROM HYUNDAI. THEY WILL NOT AUTHORIZE A RENTAL UNTIL WARRANTY WORK IS AUTHORIZED BY HYUNDAI, WHICH COULD TAKE ANOTHER THREE TO FOUR DAYS. CONSIDERING THE SERVICE DEPT IS TRYING TO GO THROUGH HYUNDAI FOR WARRANTY INSTEAD OF THE EXTENDED WARRANTY COMPANY LEADS ME TO BELIEVE THERE IS SOMETHING BIGGER THAT THEY ARE NOT BEING TRANSPARENT ABOUT. I REGRET BUYING THIS CAR.

THE A/C KNOB, WHEN AIR CONDITIONING IS TURNED ON, LIGHTS UP. THIS LIGHT BURNS UP THE INSIDE OF THE KNOB AND CAUSES THE CONNECTIONS TO BURN OUT WHICH MAKES IT IMPOSSIBLE TO CHANGE THE AIR SPEED SETTINGS. CURRENTLY MINE MUST SIT AT 3 OR IT DOESNT WORK AT ALL. I ALSO HAVE AN ISSUE WITH THE HEAD UNIT WHICH BLACKED OUT AND STOPPED WORKING OUT OF NOWHERE.

MULTIPLE TIMES AFTER SLOWING DOWN ON THE HWY, I GO TO STEP ON THE GAS AND THE ENGINE HAS NO POWER. I HAVE TO QUICKLY PUT IT IN PARK AND THEN PUT IT DRIVE AGAIN. THIS HAS HAPPENED ONLY ON THE FREEWAY. NOT AT A FULL STOP. 5 TIMES IN THE PAST YEAR.

OVER THE PAST 2 MONTHS SQUEALING NOISES HAVE BECOME VER NOTICEABLE ON THE BRAKES. SUPPOSEDLY IT IS MOISTURE, BUT IT SHOULD NOT HAPPENED WHEN IT IS 98 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT. I WENT TO A LOCAL WELL KNOWN MECHANIC SHOP AND REPLACED THE BRAKES THINKING IT WAS THE BRAKE PADS BUT IT WASN'T. THE NOISE ONCE AGAIN SHOWED UP. ANOTHER ISSUE, THE AC GOES ON AND OFF INTERMITTENTLY WHILE ON THE ROAD.

THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION AT ABOUT 20 MILES AN HOUR ON A WELL MAINTAINED CITY STREET AND THE REAR HATCHBACK GLASS SHATTERED COMPLETELY.

THE TRUCK LATCH BROKE AT 30,000 MILES ON MY 2015.

AFTER SHOPPING FOR ABOUT 15 MINUTES, I WAS IN MY PARKED VEHICLE WITH MY SIBLING IN THE TARGET PARKING LOT WHERE THE CAR WAS ON BUT NOT RUNNING . I OPENED THE AUTOMATIC FELT COVER TO WHERE THE SUNROOF DOES NOT OPEN AS WELL ONLY THE FELT COVER WILL OPEN. I COMPLETELY STARTED MY CAR SO THAT IT'S NOW RUNNING AND THIS IS WHEN MY SUNROOF MADE A LOUD POPPING SOUND ALMOST LIKE A GUNSHOT AND STARTED OPENING UNPROVOKED THEN COMPLETELY SHATTERED OVER BOTH OF OUR HEADS. *TR

SUNROOF EXPLODED WHILE DRIVING ON EXPRESSWAY. *TR

CAR HESITATES AND WOULD NOT GO. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT BEGAN TO BLINK. HAS DONE THIS A FEW TIMES WHEN PULLING OUT IN FRONT OF PEOPLE. IT HAPPENS RANDOMLY AND HAS HAPPENED TWO OR THREE TIMES.

CYLINDER 1 HAS BEEN MISFIRING. HAS THE ERROR CODE P0301. I TOOK IT IN TO HYUNDAI AND THEY SAID IT WAS JUST A SPARK PLUG. CHANGED SPARK PLUGS AND COIL PACKS AND THE PROBLEM RESOLVED FOR A FEW MONTHS AND NOW IS WORSE. MISFIRES/BACKFIRES IN THE ENGINE WHEN PRESSING GAS. LOUD POPPING SOUND COMES OUT OF THE ENGINE. THE CAR ALSO DOES NOT DRIVE PROPERLY. IT IS SHAKY WHEN DRIVING.

MY CAR HAS PROBLEM WITH THE TRANSMISSION, THE CAR FIRST LOOKS AS HAVE PROBLEM WITH THE IGNITION (STATIONARY) BUT THEN YOU MOVE TO DRIVE OR R DO NOTHING, BUT THE REAL PROBLEM IS THAT HAVE ONLY 30000 MILES AND I JUST PAY MY LAST PAYMENT TWO WEEKS AGO. THE OTHER THING IS THAT THE HYUNDAY PAGE DO NOT HAVE OPTIONS TO FIND A DEALER NEAR ME WHEN I WRITE MY ZIP CODE. I SENT MY CAR TO PROBLEMS WITH THE TIRE SENSORS AND THEY DO NO REPAIRS, I FEEL I HAVE NO CONFIDENCE IN THEIR SUBCONTRACTED REPARING DEALERS, THEY PUT THE RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE GUARANTIES INTO SUBCONTRACTED REPAIR DEALERS.

A/C FAN SPEED CONTROL STOPPED WORKING, ONLY OWNED THE CAR FOR 3 YRS. 75000 MILES. PULLED HVAC UNIT FROM THE DASH TO FIND MELTED CONNECTORS ON THE WIRING HARNESS AND THE BACK OF THE FAN SPEED CONTROLLER. A SEARCH ONLINE HAS TURNED UP A PLETHORA OF OTHERS WITH THE SAME ISSUE IN 2012-2015 VELOSTERS. THERE'S SIMPLY TOO MUCH AMPERAGE RUNNING THROUGH THE CONNECTION FOR THE HIGH SPEED FAN SETTING WITH IMPROPER MATERIALS USED IN THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE PARTS TO HANDLE IT. SIMPLY PUT; THIS IS A STRAIGHT UP FIRE HAZARD. THE FACT THAT THERE E BEEN SO MANY COMPLAINTS, YET NO ACTION ON HYUNDAI'S PART IS NEGLIGENT.

THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER WENT BAD RIGHT AFTER 60000 OR 62000 TO BE CORRECT. I ALSO HAD A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COME ON THE NEXT WEEK, SO WE TOOK TOOK THE CAR BACK IN AND WAS TOLD IT NEEDED A NEW ENGINE. THIS ALL MAKING NO SENSE TO ME AT ALL, THEY SAID THEY FOUND METAL PIECES IN THE OIL PAN.

THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE HESITATED WHEN BEING PLACED INTO DRIVE, THE ENGINE MADE AN ABNORMAL THUD SOUND, THE BRAKE PEDAL BECAME STUCK, AND THE BRAKES MADE AN ABNORMAL WHINING SOUND. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO EMPIRE HYUNDAI (428 PLEASANT STREET, FALL RIVER, MA 02721) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE FAILURE WAS NORMAL AND WOULD CORRECT ITSELF. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 11.

A/C, HEATER, DEFROST, AND HAZARD INDICATORS ARE FUNCTIONALLY INTERMITTENT.

THE HEADLIGHTS ARE VERY DIM AND VERY LOW VISIBILITY AT NIGHT TIME HAVE TO DOUBLE CHECK THEYRE EVEN ON AND WORKING ESPECIALLY WHEN RAINING AND AT NIGHT TIME I WAS DRIVING HOME TWO NIGHTS AGO TGE WEATHER WAS VERY BAD AND I HAD TO TRY MY HARDEST TO BE ABLE TO STAY IN RIGHT LANE AND AVOID DEBRIS FROM THE WIND AND RAIN AND DRIVE BELOW SPEED LIMIT AS WELL CANT SEE IF THERE IS ANYTHING IN ROAD LIKE POT HOLES DEBRIS ETC

WHILE DRIVING WITH MY SUNROOF CLOSED, I STARTED HEARING A STRANGE POPPING, CRACKING NOISE. A FEW SECONDS LATER, THERE WAS A LOUD BOOM NOISE FOLLOWED BEING SHOWERED BY BROKEN GLASS SHARDS. MY SUNROOF EXPLODED, OUT OF THE BLUE. NO COLLISION, IMPACT, OR FAST SPEEDS. IT WAS THERE ONE MINUTE AND GONE THE NEXT.

DUAL CLUTCH TRANSMISSION FAILING. INTERMITTENTLY BOOT OT ENGAGING INTO R OR D GEAR AND SLIPS OUT OF GEAR WHILE DRIVING ON STREET OR HIGHWAY. I'VE DONE RESEARCH AND IT APPEARS THIS IS A VERY COMMON CONCERN FROM A HIGH NUMBER OF HYUNDAI VELOSTER OWNERS. I CONCIDER IT DANGEROUS AS HOW IT HAPPENED TO ME WHILE DRIVING TRYING TO ACCELERATE, GEAR SLIPPED OUT AND VEHICLE ONLY REVED HIGH AND NO ACCELERATION. LUCKILY NO FAST TRAFFIC WAS BEHIND ME. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN WORST. THIS HAS HAPPED TWICE AND HYUNDAI HAS YET NOT FOUND A FIX AND TOLD ME THEY CANT FIND PROBLEM AS THERE IS NO TROUBLE CODES REGISTERED IN TRANSMISSION. MILEAGE WHEN FIRST HAPPENED TO ME WAS ABOUT 50K AND SECOND TIME AT 90K. EVERY MAINTENANCE HAS BEEN BEEN PERFORMED TO VEHICLE WITH RECORDS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2015 HYUNDAI VELOSTER. WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH, THE CONTACT NOTICED SMOKE UNDER THE PASSENGER SIDE DASHBOARD. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO COAST THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AS THE ENGINE STALLED. THE CONTACT OPENED THE HOOD AND OBSERVED FLAMES AROUND THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT WAS CALLED AND EXTINGUISHED THE FIRE. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED AND THERE WERE NO INJURIES. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED AND TOWED. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS INVALID. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 53,000.

ALL THE SENSORS ARE CONTINUAL REGISTERING PROBLEM. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM WILL STOP WORKING DAILY. CANNOT HAVE HOOD SHUT WHEN KEY OUT OF THE IGNITION. IF SO ALARM WILL GO OFF. SUSPENSION IS OFF. IT SEEMS LIKE THE CAR IS PULLING A CAMPER ALL THE TIME. THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN CONTINUALLY GETTING WORSE THE PAST 6 MONTHS.

THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FAILS TO SHIFT. THE RPM'S WILL INCREASE BUT THE SPEED WILL NOT. THE TRANSMISSION WILL NOT RE-ENGAGE UNTIL THE VEHICLE IS TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED. THIS HAPPENS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AND ACCELERATING, USUALLY WHILE I AM ON AND INCLINE AND AFTER THE TRASMISSION HAS BEEN THROUGH FREQUENT SHIFTS AT HIGH RPM'S. I HAVE VIDEO BUT IT IS TOO LARGE TO UPLOAD. THE PROBLEM CAN BE VIEWED ON YOUTUBE WITH A VEHICLE EXPERIENCING THE IDENTICAL PROBLEM.

KUMHO KH TIRES ARE DANGEROUS. THE TIRES ON THIS VEHICLE DO NOT QUALIFY FOR TAMY CURRENT RECALL. THEY DESPERATELY NEED TO BE RECALLED AND REPLACED DUE TO POOR QUALITY, SEPARATION AND LOOSING AIR. MANY VELOSTER OWNERS HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. PLEASE TAKE NOTICE AND DEVELOP AN ACTION PLAN TO REMEDY THIS PROBLEM. MANY THANKS!

WHEN THE CAR IS FIRST TURNED ON AND PUT INTO REVERSE IT PERIODICALLY WILL NOT GO INTO GEAR. IF YOU PUT THE CAR BACK INTO PARK AND THEN INTO REVERSE IT STILL WILL NOT GO INTO GEAR. YOU MUST PUT THE CAR INTO NEUTRAL AND THEN INTO GEAR. THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE IN THE PAST TWO MONTHS. WE HAVE RECORDED THE TRANSMISSION NOT GOING INTO GEAR AND BOTH HYUNDAI OF AMERICA AND OUR DEALER ARE DOING NOTHING. I'VE BEEN TOLD THAT IF THEY CAN'T REPRODUCE IT THEMSELVES 'IT IS OPERATING AS DESIGNED'. THIS IS A MAJOR COMPONENT OF ANY CAR AND IT HAVING GEAR CHANGING ISSUES MAKES ME CONCERNED THAT IT COULD ESCALATE BEYOND THIS.

TRANSMISSION WOULD HESITATE WHEN GOING FROM A COMPLETE STOP TO TRYING TO GO. THIS ISSUE ALSO OCCURS IF YOU ARE COMPLETELY STOPPED OR WHILE GOING UP A HILL AT SLOW SPEEDS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HYUNDAI VELOSTER. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS PLACED IN REVERSE, IT WENT INTO NEUTRAL AND DID NOT IMMEDIATELY GO BACK INTO DRIVE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE CHANGED GEARS BY ITSELF WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A LOCAL DEALER WHO WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE DEALER UPDATED THE COMPUTER. THE FAILURE RECURRED THREE DAYS LATER AND THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER WHO THEN CHANGED THE GEAR SHIFT ACTUATOR. THE FAILURE RECURRED WITHIN 24 HOURS AND THE VEHICLE WAS ONCE AGAIN TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE DEALER REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION. THE FAILURE RECURRED AND THE GEAR SYSTEM WAS COMPLETELY DISLOCATED, UNABLE TO SHIFT INTO REVERSE OR DRIVE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED BACK TO THE DEALER AND PROVIDED THE CONTACT WITH A LOANER VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND CONTINUED TO CHECK ON THE CONTACT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 2,900.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS 2015 HYUNDAI VELOSTER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 65 MPH, THE SUNROOF SHATTERED. AS A RESULT, THE PASSENGER SUSTAINED MINOR INJURIES THAT DID NOT REQUIRE MEDICAL ATTENTION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER BUT THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS UNDETERMINED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 5,246.

I WAS DRIVING THE 2015 VELOSTER TURBO ON A STRAIGHT PORTION OF THE FREEWAY BETWEEN 65 AND 70 MILES PER HOUR WITH THE SUNROOF OPEN. THE SUNROOF SHATTERED UNEXPECTEDLY, AND GLASS FLEW BOTH INTO THE CAR, AND OUT BEHIND THE CAR. THE GLASS LANDED ON MY ARMS, HEAD, LAP, AND WENT DOWN MY BACK AS WELL. I SWERVED TO THE RIGHT AS A REFLEX TO BEING STARTLED, AND THEN OVERCORRECTED AND WENT LEFT PAST MY LANE. I DID NOT HIT ANY CARS, HOWEVER. GLASS KEPT FALLING ON TO THE FREEWAY, INTO THE CAR, AND ON MY HEAD FOR A FEW MORE MINUTES AS I MADE MY WAY TO THE DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPARTMENT. ONCE AT THE DEALERSHIP, I INSPECTED THE DAMAGE AND FOUND THAT THE GLASS SHARDS HAD MADE MANY CUTS INTO THE PAINT TOWARD THE BACK HALF OF THE CAR. THE DEALERSHIP LATER HAD ME CIRCLE THESE SCRATCHED WITH A WAX PEN. INITIALLY, I WAS GOING TO BE CHARGED A DIAGNOSTIC FEE, BUT WHEN I MENTIONED THAT THIS HAD BEEN AN ISSUE FOR PREVIOUS YEAR MODELS, ANOTHER SERVICE CONSULTANT JUMPED IN AND TOLD ME IT WOULD ALL BE TAKEN CARE OF UNDER WARRANTY.

I HAD MY 2015 VELOSTER AT THE DEALER 5 TIMES FOR THE AUTO TRANS SOUNDING LIKE THE AXLES WERE BAD WHEN GOING INTO REVERSE. TRANS WAS FLARING UP BETWEEN 1-2 & 3-4 BUT WAS TOLD IT WAS NORMAL.THAT WAS 5200 MILES. AT 14314 THIS BAD CV JOINT NOISE STARTED & AGAIN WAS TOLD IT WAS NORMAL.AT 20859 TRANS WAS REPLACED PER THE HYUNDAI FIELD ENGINEER. BOTH PROBLEMS STILL THERE. NEVER EVEN GOT IT HOME BEFORE NOISE STARTED. BACK IN AT 25878 WITH BOTH PROBLEMS AS OF YESTERDAY & NOW THEY ARE SAYING ITS A CHARASTIC OF THE VEHICLE. THIS VEHICLE TRAVELS 240 MILES PER DAY AS U CAN SEE BY THE MILAGE. IF THESE AXLES OR CV JOINTS LET GO MY WIFES LIFE COULD BE IN DANGER AT 70 MPH. DDEALER INSISTS NO PROBLEM & I HAVE NOTIFIED HYUNDAI OF AMERICA & THE BBB AUTO LINE WITH NO CALL BACK AS OF YET. TNX FOR YOUR HELP IN ADVANCE

I JUST NOTICED THAT ON MY RIGHT FRONT TIRE THERE IS A BUBBLE ON IT'S SIDE WALL. THE CAR LEASED NEW BACK IN JULY OF THIS YEAR. THE TIRES ARE THE KUMHO SOLUS KH25. I'VE ALSO NOTICED HERE ON THIS SITE, I SEEN A COMPLAINT FOR THE SAME THING. I'M HAVE AN APPOINTMENT ON MONDAY TO SEE WHAT ARE THEY GOING TO TELL ME. AS FOR SPEED CONTROL. THIS CAR CANT GO ABOVE 55MPH - 60MPH WHILE ON HIGHWAY NORMAL CURVES WITHOUT THE REAR SWAYING WHILE RUN OVER DIVIDER LINE ON THE PAVEMENT. LESS SPEED WHEN IT RAINS. I'M REALLY HAVING DOUBTS ABOUT THIS CAR ONCE IT STARTS TO SNOW.

STARTED CAR STEERING WAS HARD COULD NOT TURN . RESTARTED STEERING WAS BETTER. DEALER TOLD WIFE BRING TO DEALERSHIP WITH THEM KNOWING STEERING PROBLEM . THEY TOLD HER NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM AND WILL TAKE TWO MONTHS TO CORRECT. CAR ONLY SEVEN MONTHS OLD. PAID CASH SO I HAVE NO OPTIONS.

I HAVE HAD 3 VELOSTERS BRAND NEW, THEY COME WITH KUMHO SOLUS KH25 AND THEY ALL DEVELOPED SIDEWALL BUBBLES, EACH TIME I CANN FOR A WARRANTY THEY DENY ME SAYING ITS MY FAULT, YET MANY OTHERS HAVE THE SAME ISSUES. MY NEW 2015 VELOSTER RSPEC HAS THEM AND HAS DEVELOPED A SIDEWALL BUBBLE AT 4300 MILES. *TR
