I stood my [XXX] nephew up in the front passengers side floorboard of the 2012 hyundia voloster manual transmission with push start . I stepped out of the car on the passage side of the car the car was parked in first gear no one was on the driver's side . I bent over to get my shoes on and baby reached over and pushed the start button on the car the car should not have started since the clutch was not pressed in but unfortunately the car started and lunged forward being on a incline it was as if someone smashed on the gas pedal I ran with the car as far as I could but it was going so fast I could not get into the car to stop it I was drug trying to stop the car the car flew thru a fence , into the woods,...
Subject: Issue After ABS Recall Service on My 2012 Hyundai Veloster Dear [Hyundai Customer Service/Dealer Name], I recently took my 2012 Hyundai Veloster to the dealer for the ABS recall service, where they performed an ECM and ECU upgrade as part of the fix. However, immediately after the recall service, my car began experiencing a serious issue. The Check Engine light turned on, and now the car won’t accelerate past 4,000 RPM. This problem did not exist before the recall, and I believe it may be related to the update or service performed. I would appreciate it if you could look into this matter, as the issue started right after the recall work. Please advise on the next steps and whether this can be inspected and fixed at no cost. Thank you for your time and assistance. I look forward to your prompt response. Regard, [XXX] [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT...
Over the last year, I’ve had to purchase three air conditioner switches after driving for several years with it being out the first one we replaced caused a small electrical fire as did all of the others. This has been an ongoing issue not just with my car, but my sister‘s in-laws who is a 2014 model I looked online. It has been reported over the years basically since the cars come out of this same issue can you please Issue a safety recall before somebody’s house or vehicle or both catches fire completely. This is not safe at all. I have already put in a request for the safety recall on several other occasions this is unacceptable unsafe and a very large problem across the United States since this vehicle has come out please do something.
The Hvac Temperature Control Unit has faulty wiring and plastic dials to where the wiring over heats and melts the Hvac control unit . Multiple complaints on this and nothing has been done . My wiring has melted completely and is a FIRE HAZARD
In Dec of last year my cars dash lights started flashing no matter which gear I tried the gear would flash on the dash,when I called my extended warranty "car shield ",they recommended that I take it to a repair shop in nearby city and have a diagnostic test performed. I did so,in which after testing they said it was something on side of transmission and they weren't equipped to perform the repairs and needed to be taken to dealership instead. I picked up the vehicle and same issue was present of course, so I had it towed to a dealership and then was contacted by them that they could not do a diagnostic test until the battery was replaced because it was not starting, so I brought a battery and put it on in the place of my old one.I made sure that the vehicle was going to start...
The contact owns a 2012 Hyundai Veloster. The contact stated that while driving at approximately 15 MPH, the gear shift indicator located on the instrument panel started flashing. The contact stated that the vehicle failed to shift into gear and failed to remain in drive(D) as intended. The vehicle was steered to the side of the road and parked. The vehicle was towed to a dealer, where it was diagnosed that the fuse panel, the transmission, and the alternator wiring harnesses had melted and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 99,000.
Since the make of this car and it’s further year generations people can complained about the a/c control switch burning out and actually it melts the inside of the part. Upon replacing it will short out again and again. So my people have called Hyundai over this issue and they 22 years after my car was made still have not issued a recall. Please someone do something about this!!!PLEASE!!! They don’t sell a replacement part and Hyundai is making 200+ just for the part they “need” to replace (whole unit) for a $5 part of the unit. As someone who lives in AZ it can be fatal to not have A/C. Additionally the stearing controls have also shorted out. This while card electronics are a hazard and a money pit!
When I make short trips and then turn car off for a few minutes before trying to start it again, sometimes it doesn’t restart. I have to sit there for 5-15 minutes before it will start again. Once, it died at a 4-way stop then started right back up. Today, the motor cut off while I was accelerating at 35 mph right in the middle of the road. After 10 minutes it started right back up. This is my daily driver and I know there’s a campaign for this abs/electrical issue but I need a solution immediately before I’m left up a creek without a paddle. That was so scary that I’m afraid to even get on the interstate to take it to the dealership!
My car has 3 recalls included safety recall and manufacturer engine issues recall. The dealer declined to repair my car the reason said its out of warranty, my car has 106k miles, as I know the recalls should be fixed no matter how many miles on the vehicle, or who is the owner of the vehicle, first or second. Now the Hyundai dealer ( key Hyundai dealer in Manchester CT) asked me to pay them $195 plus parking fees $35 a day. I refuse to take my car back until they fix all recalls. And the car sitting there at the dealer since July 29th. I need your help please.
So the part that failed was the ac control unit, the car can be inspected. The ac fan know stopped working when inspected the connector itself has gotten so hot that the connector is scorched the know has had some separation on the inside and has created this faulty functionality of the ac controller unit ring. The car has been inspected by hyundai and the recommendation was to replace the ac control unit at a substantial cost. There was no warning lamps as it is an a/c component issue. The symptoms were as follows the a/c worked then it would stop blowing you would have to bring it back to 0 or to the one position speed then move it back to the 4th and it would work fine, until it stopped working. The only positions that work now is 0 and 1. This started happening about 6 months ago...
The contact owns a 2012 Hyundai Veloster. The contact stated that while shifting into gear, the vehicle failed to move. Upon starting the vehicle, the vehicle was fluttering. There were no warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who informed the contact that the repair parts were on backorder. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 23V132000 (Electrical System) however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The local dealer was contacted. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was not made aware of the issue. The failure mileage was approximately 83,000. Parts distribution disconnect.
The electrical system was faulty since day one. When a turn signal is on and you turn the steering wheel that direction the light will turn off. This is SO DANGEROUS. The speed is also very iffy every time you break
I had a recall done on my car, and driving 10 mins from the shop it lost power. I called the shop they had me pull over and try shutting off the car and starting it back up which didn't work so i was told to drive back if i can make it , it took 25 mins with the throttle going up and down. They had it for about a hour or two and said it was the oil being low 2 qts. But, they put 3qts in, they got it working and 2 weeks later it did the same thing, I called and took it back they said it was the spark plugs and I had to pay for that. I explain to them I had no problems until the recall was done and they say the recall was good. So now we 2 months out and the...
My AC/Heating unit has stopped functioning. Upon researching online, this appears to be a common problem in these vehicles. After opening the section of the vehicle that contains the faulty part, melting/burn marks are observed. This appears to be a fire hazard.
First Crankshaft position sensor was bad now Camshaft position sensor bad.
CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS BLINKING. CAR IS LESS THAN ONE YEAR OLD . 108,000 MILES. I PUT 8,000 ON IT. CAR LIGHTS GO OUT AFTER REPLACING , STEERING COLUMN, ELECTRICAL ISSUES , OIL IN SPARK PLUGS , FUEL LINE SEEMS CLOGGED , EMERGENCY BRAKE DOESN'T HOLD EVERY TIME, ECT TAKING TO HYUNDAI IN THE MORNING. DANGEROUS.
MY 2012 HYUNDAY VELOSTER KEEPS SHUT OFF ON THE HIGHWAY AND START RIGHT BACK AFTER 2 MINURES IT IS VERY UNSAFE .
CAR WAS OFF AND PARKED. DROVE HOME COULD NOT GET TRUNK/TAIL GATE OPEN. KEY FLOB DID NOT WORK ON TRUNK BUT DID WORK ON ALL SIDE CAR DOORS. I HAD TO CLIMB INTO TRUNK THRU BACK SEAT TO GET GROCERIES OUT OF CAR TRUNK. I AM VERY CLOSE TO BEING 72 YEARS OLD AND IT WAS A COMPLETE STRUGGLE GETTING IN AND OUT OF TRUNK THRU BACK SEAT ESPECIALLY ON SLANTED DRIVEWAY.
BLOWER SWITCH AND WIRING HARNESS FOR THE SWITCH IS NOT ABLE TO HANDLE THE CURRENT RESULTING IN MELTING OF THE SWITCH AND HARNESS. *TR
VEHICLE EXPERIENCED INTERMITTENT ISSUES WITH AC FUNCTION BEFORE STOPPING ALTOGETHER ALONG WITH THE AC CONTROL KNOB MAKING A GRINDING NOISE. AFTER A FEW DAYS I NOTICED A BURNING PLASTIC SMELL AND INVESTIGATED BEHIND THE REMOVABLE CENTER PANEL OF THE DASH AND DISCOVERED THE WIRING HARNESS CONNECTED TO THE BACKSIDE OF THE CONTROL KNOB HAD EXPERIENCED MELTING ENOUGH TO DEFORM AND CHAR THE WIRING HARNESS END ALONG WITH THE BACKSIDE OF THE AC CONTROL KNOB. NO SAFETY RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR THIS ISSUE AND A GOOGLE SEARCH NOT ONLY WILL SHOW MANY OTHERS WITH IDENTICAL PROBLEMS BUT ANY PHOTOS APPEAR TO MIRROR THE DAMAGE MINE RECEIVED. HYUNDAI OF AMERICA REACHED OUT AND STATED THAT THEY HAVE NO INTENTION TO LOOK INTO OR COVER THE DAMAGE. THIS IS AN ISSUE THAT COULD HAVE NOT ONLY BURNED MY CAR DOWN BUT ALSO POSE A RISK FOR LIFE AND PROPERTY AROUND ME. THIS...
WHILE DRIVING IN TUCSON AZ, ABOUT 42 MPH AND WITH A/C RUNNING, I SMELLED A BURNT SCENT IN THE CABIN, THE A/C SHUT OFF. WHEN I TRIED TO RESTART IT, I SWITCHED THE FAN SWITCH TO ANOTHER POSITION AND IT STARTED AGAIN, BUT IT ONLY WORKED IN THE 2 AND 4 POSITION. THE NEXT DAY THE SWITCH ONLY WORKED IN THE 1 AND 3 POSITION, AND NOW ONLY IN THE 3 POSITION. I REMOVED THE TRIM PANEL TO SEE WHAT MIGHT BE WRONG AND SAW A CONNECTOR AND WIRE CONNECTED TO THE FAN SWITCH DISCOLORED FROM HEATING UP. I LOOKED AT THE FAN SWITCH ITSELF AND IT HAD MELTED ON THE INSIDE. I DECIDED TO TAKE PICTURES BECAUSE SOMETHING IS SHORTING OUT IN THE HEAD UNIT AND COULD POTENTIALLY CAUSE A FIRE. I TALKED TO HYUNDAI (CASE#: 15918166) AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY HAD TO INSPECT THE VEHICLE THEMSELVES...
MY 2012 HYUNDAI VELOSTER STALL AND HAVE A FUNNY SMELL MY CAR STALL AT A RED LIGHT HAD TO CALL THE POLICE TO GET IT OFF THE ROAD
WHEN STOPPED AT LIGHTS THE ENGINE DIES MULTIPLE TIMES. ALSO WHILE DRIVING THE CAR JERKS LIKE IT IS GOING TO STALL
THE CAR STARTED TO RATTLE AND STARTED TO NOT BE ABLE TO ACCELERATE. I PULLED THE CAR TO THE SIDE OF A SEMI BUSY ROAD AND LET IT SIT FOR A MOMENT WHILE TURNED OFF AND THEN AFTER 30 SECONDS TURNED THE CAR BACK ON. I STARTED TO DRIVE THE CAR AND TURNED DOWN A RESIDENTIAL ROAD (ROTHROCK CIRCLE COPLEY, OH) AND THAT IS WHEN THINGS GOT REALLY BAD.THE CAR WAS IN MOTION AND STARTED TO ACT EVEN STRANGER. IT HAD ISSUES ACCELERATING AGAIN AND THEN WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD THE LUNGED FORWARD AND THEN WHITE SMOKE AND FLAMES CAME FROM UNDER THE CARS FRONT END. I JUMPED OUT OF THE CAR AFTER TURNING IT OFF, GRABBED MY PERSONAL ITEMS AND RAN OFF INCASE OF AN EXPLOSION. I CALLED 911INSTANTLY AND WHILE ON THE PHONE WITH COPLEY POLICE MY CAR WAS ENGULFED IN FLAMES. FIREFIGHTERS CAME OUT AND STARTED...
MY CAR IS HAVING ISSUES DESCRIBING WHAT IS HAPPENING IN THE RECALL, THE ENGINE IS LOUDER THAN WHEN I GO OUT IT SOUNDS LIKE YOU'RE KNOCKING NOISE AND I JUST GOT IT IN SEPTEMBER. I NEED TO SPEAK WITH SOMEBODY ABOUT THIS SINCE IT'S NOT LISTED ON THE RECALL
CAR HAS BEGAN DOING THIS OFTEN NOW. AT 115K MILES. START THE CAR, PUT IT IN DRIVE, CAR WON'T MOVE. PUT IT IN REVERSE. SAME ISSUE. HAVE TO TURN THE CAR OFF AND ON AND REPEAT UNTIL IT MOVES. OCCASIONALLY I'LL STOP AT A STOP SIGN AND GO TO MOVE AFTER STOPPING AND AGAIN, IT WON'T MOVE. ENGINE JUST REVS. HAVE TO REPEAT ABOVE UNTIL IT MOVES. REPLACED CAMSHAFT SENSOR AND KNOCK SENSOR. DIDN'T FIX IT. NOW THE CAR DIES WHILE IN PARK AND STALLS BETWEEN 15-2000 RPM. THERE ARE SEVERAL FORUMS WITH THE SAME ISSUES AND NO ONE HAS A SOLID ANSWER. AND NO RECALL. INSANE. TAKING IT TO HYUNDAI AND CONSIDERING A LAWSUIT WITH MY EVIDENCE AND ALL THE OTHER FORUMS AND COMPLAINTS.
I CONTACTED HYUNDAI MOTOR OF AMERICA TO TRY TO COME TO A RESOLUTION WITH AN ONGOING ISSUE WITH VELOSTER VEHICLES. BACK IN 2015, I HAD TO HAVE MY HVAC FAN SPEED CONTROLLER REPLACED DUE TO IT INTERMITTENTLY WORKING. THE CONTROLLER WAS REPLACED IN MARCH OF 2015 UNDER MANUFACTURER WARRANTY. NOW IN DECEMBER OF 2016, THE FAN SPEED CONTROL STARTED TO SHOW THE SAME SYMPTOMS AS BEFORE. THEN ONE EVENING IT STOPPED WOKING ALL TOGETHER. NOW, I AM OUT OF WARRANTY BY MILEAGE, CURRENT VEHICLE MILEAGE IS 91000. I ENDED UP TAKING APART THE DASH TO INSPECT THE FAILED PART AND FOUND IT TO BE MELTED/BURNT. ONCE I FOUND THIS, A COUPLE DAYS PRIOR TO TOTAL FAILURE, I SMELLED AND DISTINCT PLASTIC BURNING SMELL AND I PUT IT OFF AS A VEHICLE THAT WAS IN MY CLOSE VICINITY. BUT UPON INSPECTION, I FOUND THAT IT HAD IN FACT BEEN MY VEHICLE...
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 HYUNDAI VELOSTER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE PUSH TO START BUTTON FAILED TO START THE VEHICLE. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, IT WAS DIFFICULT TO TURN THE VEHICLE OFF BY USING THE PUSH TO START BUTTON. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE CAUSED THE RADIO AND THE BACK UP CAMERA TO BECOME INOPERABLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE BATTERY NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE RECURRED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 54,871. UPDATED 06/29/16*LJ *CN
CAR OFTEN FAILS TO START WHEN TURNING THE IGNITION KEY. THE LIGHTS, AND RADIO TURN ON WHEN THE IGNITION KEY IS IN, BUT WHEN I TURN THE KEY TO START I HEAR A CLICK AND THE CAR IS DEAD. IF I REPEAT THIS SEVERAL TIMES THE CAR MAY START NORMALLY. THE PROBLEM STATED SEVERAL WEEKS AGO. I HAVE GONE TO THE DEALER TWICE. THE FIRST TIME THEY CLAIMED IT WAS THE BATTERY. THEY CHANGED THE BATTERY (IT COST ME $100). THIS SOLVED THE PROBLEM FOR 2-3 DAYS (OR PERHAPS IT WAS THE WARMER WEATHER, SEE BELOW). A WEEK LATER THE PROBLEM CAME BACK AND THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. THEY REPLACED THE OXYGEN SENSOR. THIS FIXED THE ENGINE LIGHT ISSUE. THE CAR WAS OK FOR A DAY. THE PROBLEM WITH FAILING START IS BACK AND IT IS GETTING WORST. YESTERDAY IT TOOK ME 5 MINUTES IN THE MORNING AND 25...
DEALER SAYS THEY CAN'T REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. VEHICLE HAS INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS STARTING. WHEN TURNING KEY IN IGNITION, USUALLY IN COLDER WEATHER IN THE MORNINGS, VEHICLE WILL NOT START. THERE IS JUST A 1-CLICK SOUND PER IGNITION CYCLE, BUT NO IGNITION OCCURS. ALL LIGHTS COME ON DASH, RADIO TURNS ON, ETC. REPLACED BATTERY DUE TO FAILED BATTERY TEST, BUT THIS DID NOT FIX THE STARTER PROBLEM. I BELIEVE THE STARTER ASSEMBLY IS STARTING TO FAIL BUT THE DEALER HAS BEEN VERY UNHELPFUL. I DRIVE A LOT FOR WORK, ESPECIALLY TO REMOTE AREAS, AND I'M GOING TO GET STRANDED EVENTUALLY WITHOUT ANY CELL SERVICE.
VEHICLE WOULD NOT START. SMART JUNCTION BOX WAS FOUND TO BE FAULTY DUE TO A SHORT IN THE WIRING HARNESS. IN ADDITION TO THE WIRING HARNESS NEEDING TO BE REPAIRED, THE BATTERY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. WAS NOT COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY OR EXTENDED WARRANTY.
THE DATE OF 4/20/15 IS THE LATEST TIME(OR BY THE WAY I HAVE TO WAIT TILL 5/22/15 TO BRING IT IN.... FIRST DAY THEY HAD ROOM FOR ME......THIS IS GOING TO BE THE 4TH TIME THEY HAVE REPLACE(OVER THE PAST 2 YEARS) THE (97250-2V010-BLH CONTROL ASSY-HEAT) BECAUSE THE FAN DIAL DON'T WORK ON 3 OR 4 POSITIONS. WHEN IT GETS REAL BAD IT DON'T WORK AT ALL. THE DEALER IS GIVING ME A HARD TIME BECAUSE THEY HAVE TO REPLACE AGAIN..... THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM ... AND IT NEEDS TO BE FIXED.... AND WHEN THE CUSTOMER BRINGS IT IN WITH THIS PROBLEM THEY SHOULD JUST SAY THEY ARE SORRY AND FIX IT. *TR
FOR THE 4TH TIME, MY 2012 VELOSTER LITERALLY SHUT OFF WHILE BEING DRIVEN. IT DOES NOT STALL. IT SHUTS OFF ENTIRELY. NO ELECTRIC. NO POWER. NO NOTHING. LUCKILY, THIS HAS ONLY HAPPENED WHEN DOING UNDER 15MPH OR STOPPED AT A LIGHT. IF THIS WERE TO HAPPEN ON A HIGHWAY OR AT HIGH SPEEDS, IT IS QUITE CERTAIN THAT I WOULD BE IN AN ACCIDENT AS THERE WOULD BE NO WAY TO ALERT OTHER MOTORISTS THAT MY VEHICLE CANNOT BE DRIVEN - THERE ARE NO BRAKE LIGHTS OR ANYTHING WHEN IT SHUTS OFF. WHEN IT SHUTS OFF, IT IS IN DRIVE. IT CANNOT BE PUT BACK INTO PARK. I HAVE TO PUT IT INTO NEUTRAL TO RESTART IT. IT DOES RESTART WITHOUT HESITATION. I DID TAKE IT TO MY LOCAL DEALER ONCE AND THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO LOCATE ANY PROBLEM. I HAVE DONE RESEARCH ON THIS AND SEE THAT HYUNDAI...
VEHICLE FAILS TO ENGAGE STARTER DURING START SEQUENCE. TRIED BATTERY BOOSTER JUMP BUT NO CHANGE IN CONDITION. CAR HAS FULL POWER TO ALL LIGHTING AND GAUGES BUT WILL NOT ENGAGE STARTER, ALL YOU HEAR IS A "CLICK" SOUND FROM ENGINE COMPARTMENT. PROBLEM HAS BEEN INTERMITTENT SINCE CAR WAS TOWED TO DEALERS ON 11/25/13 FOR NO START CONDITION. DEALER WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE PROBLEM BUT PERFORMED TECHNICAL SERVICE UPDATES TO ECM & INFO CTR. HEAD UNIT. FREQUENCY OF PROBLEM HAS ACCELERATED OVER PAST 4 DAYS AND NOW HAVE TO "POP START" THE CAR BY ROLLING IT AND LETTING OUT CLUTCH IN GEAR TO START ENGINE. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE SINCE THE CAR CAN LEAVE YOU STRANDED WITH NO WARNING. *TR
PURCHASED CAR ON 5/5/2012 WITH 6 MILES ON IT. WITHIN LESS THAN A WEEK AND 200 MILES THE TRANSMISSION BEGAN CLICKING. TOOK IT INTO HYUNDAI AND THEY STATED IT NEEDED A NEW TRANSMISSION. AFTER 2 1/2 WEEKS THE TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED AS HYUNDAI REFUSED TO GIVE ME A DIFFERENT CAR. SINCE THEN THE CAR CANNOT ACCELERATE, SOUNDS "CLUNKY" AND WHEN GOING AT LOW SPEEDS SOUNDS LIKE THE GEAR ISN'T ENGAGING AND SOUNDS/FEELS LIKE IT WOULD IF YOU RELEASED A CLUTCH TOO EARLY. CAR LOSES POWER AND SOUNDS LIKE IT'S ABOUT TO DIE. A HISSING AND RATTLING SOUND UNDER THE HOOD HAPPENS AS WELL. AFTER TAKING IT IN TO DEALER, DEALER STATES THEY COULD NOT FIND THE SOUNDS OR NOISES OR LOSS OF POWER I WAS HAVING. RPMS REV REALLY HIGH BEFORE ENGAGING IN FIRST GEAR. DEALER STILL WON'T DO ANYTHING SINCE THEY CAN'T DIAGNOSE IT. I HAVE ALMOST BEEN IN...
GLASS AND VISIBILITY PROBLEM: IN FEB. 2012 THE LARGE BACK GLASS (HORIZONTAL GLASS IN THE BACK DOOR) IN THE CAR BROKE WITHOUT ANY APPARENT REASON. TEMPERATURE WAS NORMAL AT THE TIME AND NO OUTSIDE OBJECT WAS FOUND IN THE CAR. IT WAS A DANGEROUS SITUATION AND VERY EXPENSIVE FIX. HYUNDAI COMPANY DID NOT COVER THE REPAIR COST UNDER WARRANTY. ELECTRICAL PROBLEM: FROM JUNE 2012 TOO PRESENT, THERE IS ERROR MESSAGE POPPING OUT THAT BLUELINK IS ACTIVE BUT NOT REGISTERED. AFTER ALMOST 4 MONTHS OF CONTACTING THE CUSTOMER SERVICE AND DEALER SHIP THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO FIX THIS ERROR MESSAGE. EACH TIME THAT I TURN ON THE CAR, THIS MESSAGE PUPS UP WHICH IS DISTRACTING AND DANGEROUS. APPARENTLY THIS IS A COMMON ERROR WITH NEW HYUNDAI CARS WITH BLUELINK. *TR
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 HYUNDAI VELOSTER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REAR SEAT BELTS AND THE PASSENGER AIR BAGS FAILED. THE REAR SEAT BELTS COULD NOT BE RELEASE FROM THE SEAT OR RETRACTED. THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT REMAINED ILLUMINATED AND THE ANTI-THEFT UNIT ACTIVATED INDEPENDENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER SEVERAL TIMES FOR THE FAILURE. THE DEALER RE-CALIBRATED THE PASSENGER WEIGHT SENSOR HOWEVER, THE AIR BAG FAILURE WAS NOT CORRECTED. THE REAR SEAT BELTS WERE NOT REPLACED AND THE ANTI THEFT SYSTEM FAILURE WAS UNABLE TO BE DUPLICATED HOWEVER, THE ANTI THEFT ELECTRICAL SYSTEM WAS UPDATED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE THAT THE TAIL PIPE RELEASED A BLACK POWDER AND THE MANUFACTURER ADVISED THE CONTACT THAT THE BLACK POWDER WAS A NORMAL PHENOMENON THAT THEY WERE AWARE OF. THE CONTACT WAS ADVISED BY THE MANUFACTURER THAT THEY WERE WORKING ON ISSUING A REMEDY FOR THE...
