NHTSA Complaint #10651156 — 2005 HYUNDAI XG350

I WAS ALMOST PARKED AT THE CURB IN FRONT OF A DRUGSTORE WITH MY FOOT ON BRAKE EASING INTO SPOT WHEN CAR LURCHED FORWARD, JUMPED THE CURB AND VIOLENTLY CRASHED INTO THE CONCRETE WALL ABOUT 6-7 FEET AWAY. WALL, NOT BRAKE, STOPPED CAR. PEOPLE CAME OUT FROM STORE AS CRASH WAS HEARD/FELT INSIDE. I DON'T KNOW WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED TO ME IF I DIDN'T HAVE SEATBELT ON. AS IT WAS, MY CHEST WAS EXTREMELY SORE FOR SEVERAL WEEKS FROM SEATBELT. AIRBAG DIDN'T DEPLOY. CAR WAS TOTALED THANK GOD AS I WOULD NEVER DRIVE IT AGAIN. SO MANY COMPLAINTS WITH SAME ISSUE NO RECALLS OR SERVICE BULLETINS. HYUNDAI LINE IS CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WHEN CAR WAS CHECKED BY THEM AFTER ACCIDENT SO IT IS DRIVER ERROR. I'VE BEEN DRIVING FOR MANY YEARS AND NEVER HAD AN ACCIDENT AND STILL CONSIDER THAT I DIDN'T HAVE AN ACCIDENT BUT NOT SURE OF INSURANCE COMPANY'S STAND IF I BUY ANOTHER CAR, IF I CAN FIND A SAFE ONE AFTER ALL OF THE RECALLS. THIS SITUATION IS UNACCEPTABLE. *TR
