Consumer Description

Electrical issues & engine issues. 2013 Hyundai Veloster. - purchased brand new and September 2013. CENTEREACH HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP. Since day one I’ve had many issues. So I’m having multiple repairs and replacement of AC /Heat blower,switches, Resistors,-Blower head unit, radio,Control head ( Internally shorting.Recall #948 ( canister cracked).report to dealer sells of exhaust coming in car. Also had replaced Right rear door actuator. July 2018 complained of transmission slipping not going into gear pulling back etc. Dealer claims no trouble calls. Once again I am having the same issues. This time driver side window goes down by itself and will not stay up, I have to manually open passenger side door lock and once again the blower does not work. Lights on my dash all lit oil light had been flickering, tire pressure light stays on and airbag light is lit. Just recently I have been driving in the car and had thought in the middle of driving that the transmission had went the car mediately pulled back and did not move I was lucky enough to have guided it over to the side of the road. NHTSA # 19V204000 ( Hyundai recall #182) 2013 Hyundai Veloster - although it states four”TURBO ENGINE” only I am having the same exact problems. Let’s not wait until the engine goes on fire or causes a serious accident ! I am more than concerned and worried about this for I have no other transportation. I have contacted Hyundai customer care service. Both emailed and called. Hyundai Consumer Affairs # 18383206. I had also been advised over the phone(which I am was not aware of) another recall #966 - Involving a Hyundai Veloster’s 2012 -2017, as per rep. She set up an appointment with the dealership in which I go to, and also purchased the car, I asked her to please forward me a copy of the email and what she sent to the dealership, in which I am still waiting. I’m hoping the dealership Will take this more seriously coming from the manufacture. I Will advise outcome. Thank you
