2011 Hyundai Elantra complaints

WAS INFORMED THAT THERE IS A KNOWN STEERING COUPLER ISSUE THAT IS COVERED UNDER AN EXTENDED WARRANTY UP TO 100,000 MILES. UNFORTUNATELY MY VEHICLE EXCEEDS THAT RANGE AND WILL HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR SAID REPAIRS. MY CONCERN IS THE SAFETY ASPECT OF THIS AFFECTING MY MODEL IN GENERAL, NOT JUST THE MILEAGE.

THE KNOB ON TO TURN ON FAN FOR A/C STARTING TO NOT WORK UNLESS I TUNED IT ON AND OFF. THEN A FEW DAYS AGO, WHILE I WAS IDLING IN A PARKING LOT, THE KNOB GOT STUCK WITH THE A/C ON. I STARTED TO SMELL BURNING & WHEN I TRIED TO TURN IT OFF THE KNOB CAME OFF AND I SAW SMOKE COMING FROM WHERE THE KNOB WAS. I TURNED OFF MY VEHICLE, REMOVED THE FUSE FOR THE A/C AND DROVE HOME. WHEN I WENT TO REPLACE IT AND REMOVE THE OLD ONE, I NOTICED THAT THE PLUG THAT CONNECTS TO THE CLIMATE CONTROL UNIT IS ALSO BURNED. THE PLUG AND THE WIRES CONNECTED TO IT LEAD TO A BUNCH OF WIRES THAT ARE WIRED TOGETHER. AT THIS POINT, I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE MY VEHICLE, EVEN THOUGH THE FUSE FOR THE CLIMATE CONTROL UNIT ISN'T IN. IF I LEAVE THE UNIT DISCONNECTED, I WILL NOT BE ABLE TO USE BY HAZARDS. IF I HADN'T REMOVED THE FUSE OR IF I HAD BEEN ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY OR FREEWAY THE CAR MAY HAVE CAUGHT FIRE. I NOTICED THAT THERE ARE MANY PEOPLE REPLACING THIS PART. MAYBE IT COULD BE A SAFETY ISSUE.

DROVE VEHICLE TO DEALER, BOUCHER HYUNDIA OF WAUKESHA AFTER THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WOULD GO ON AND OFF WITH CODES P2096 AND P0304. CODES ARE RELATED TO CYLINDER 3 AND 4 MISFIRES. DEALER FOUND ENGINE MAKING A NOISE FROM LOWER END AND RECOMMENDS AN ENGINE REPLACEMENT. DEALER DISASSEMBLED THE VEHICLE TO DOCUMENT POSSIBLE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE FROM HYUNDAI MOTOR AMERICA. AFTER FOUR WEEKS HMA DECLINED TO PROVIDE ASSISTANCE. THE VEHICLE WAS REASSEMBLED AND RETURNED TO THE OWNER. THE VEHICLE COULD NOT BE DRIVEN OFF THE DEALER LOT, IT STALLED IMMEDIATELY AFTER STARTING. THE EIGHT YEAR OLD VEHICLE WITH 126,000 MILES IS A UNFIXABLE AND HAS LOST MARKET VALUE.

THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. WE HAD SOMEONE GET THE CODE WHICH IS P0711. WHY IS THERE NOT A RECALL FOR THE TRANSMISSION TEMP SENSOR IF THIS PROBLEM CONTINUES TO HAPPEN TO MANY MANY PEOPLE. THIS IS GOING TO COST ME $500-1000. THIS SHOULD BE HYUNDAI'S BILL TO PAY.

THE LEFT FRONT MCPHERSON STRUT CRACKED AND THE SPRING PUNCTURED THE TIRE. THE CAR WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER FOR REPAIR. THE DEALER SAID THAT THE RIGHT FRONT SPRING WAS ALSO BROKEN EXCEPT WHERE IT BROKE THE SPRING DID NOT DAMAGE THE RIGHT FRONT TIRE. THE CAR WAS MOVING BUT SLOWLY, THANKFULLY AT THE TIME. I NEVER HAD A SPRING BREAK ON ANY CAR I HAVE EVER OWNED, MUCH LESS TWO SPRINGS ON THE SAME CAR. THERE IS A RECALL FOR THE SAME THING BUT HYUNDAI CORPORATION SAYS MY CAR WAS NOT IN THE RECALL. NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID: 15V629000

AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON AND STAYS ON AIR BAG PROBABLY WANT WORK AND THAT IS A SAFETY FEATURE

MY 2011 HYUNDAI ELANTRA HAS THIS TICKING SOUND COMING FROM THE ENGINE FOR OVER 12MONTHS. I HAS CONSTANTLY CALLED EVEN HAD THE CAR TOWED 4 TO 5 TIMES TO THE SAME DEALERSHIP FOR THE SAME THING THAT THE HYUNDAI MOTOR WANT AND WOULDN'T DECLARED THE CAR A LEMON. THE CAR CONSTANTLY WOULD NOT START OR WHEN IT DID START WHILE DRIVING IT WOULD SLOW DOWN AND THEN SHUT COMPLETELY OFF WHERE I WOULD HAVE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE BACK UP. THE CAR IS ALWAYS KEEPED IN A CLOSE GARAGE AND REGARDLESS TO THE WEATHER IT CONTINUE TO MAKE THIS LOUD RAZZING NOISE IN THE ENGINE. SERVICE MANAGER CHAD REPEATEDLY TOLD ME THAT THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG AND THAT IT WAS BECAUSE OF THE WEATHER. NOW THE DEALERSHIP WANTS ME TO PAY 7000 DOLLARS FOR A NEW ENGINE

REAR WINDOW HAS PROGRESSIVELY GOTTEN MORE BLURRED AND MOTTLED, REDUCING VISIBILITY. AT THIS POINT THE ONLY CLEAR PART IS A SMALL SECTION IN THE MIDDLE. APPROXIMATELY OVER 3/4 OF WINDOW IS BLURRY AT PRESENT. THIS BEGAN OVER 3 YEARS AGO AND WORKED ITS WAY FROM THE OUTSIDE TOWARDS THE MIDDLE.

I RECENTLY HAD TO SLAM MY BRAKES DUE TO A DRIVER IN FRONT OF ME. AND RIGHT AT ABOUT A MONTH LATER THE ACCELERATION TO MY CAR WHILE IN DRIVE WILL NOT GO. TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC AND ITS READING A COUPLE OF CODES T THE SENSORS. I SAW THAT IN A SEARCH WHILE TRYING TO FIX THE ISSUE THAT IT HAS BEEN RECALLED DUE TO THE ESC. I AM VERY UPSET THAT I WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE RECALL THAT IS RELATED TO MY VIN NUMBER. THIS HAPPENS AT A PARKING LOT NEAR CHUCK E CHEESE ON MY SONS BIRTHDAY AND I HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED BACK HOME. I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO USE MY CAR IN A WEEK NOW BECAUSE WE ARE STILL TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WICH SENSOR IT IS AND IF I REPLACE IT WHAT WILL EVEN HAPPEN.

I ALWAYS HAVE HYUNDAI DO MY WORK ON MY CAR EXCEPT I DO HOWEVER GO TO WALMART TO GET MY TIRES. I HAVE HAD THIS CAR FOR ABOUT 3 YEARS AND CONSTANTLY HAVE HAD ISSUES WITH IT. I WILL NEVER EVER BUY ANOTHER HYUNDAI AGAIN.

THE CAR WILL NOT START DESPITE THE BATTERY BEING CHARGED AND NO APPARENT ISSUES WITH THE VEHICLE WHICH LEFT ME STRANDED. THE VEHICLE ONLY HAS 40,000 MILES ON IT. THIS APPEARS TO BE A RANGE SWITCH ISSUE. I DO HAVE A DRIVETRAIN WARRANTY; THIS SHOULD BE COVERED; HOWEVER, THIS SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING WITH AS MANY COMPLAINTS THAT HAVE BEEN REPORTED. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL!

SEVERE ENGINE KNOCKING FOR OVER 12 MONTHS WHEN STARTING VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE IS STORED IN AN ENCLOSED GARAGE YEAR ROUND. KNOCKING OCCURS NO MATTER THE OUTDOOR TEMPERATURE. THE VEHICLE SEIZED UP AND WAS TOWED TO DEALER. DEALER STATED THE VEHICLE WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY BUT WOULD NOT DO ANYTHING TO MAKE REPAIRS.

THE AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON AND OFF REGULARLY FOR SOME DAYS, THEN FINALLY IT STAYS ON PERMANENTLY. THE STEERING WHEEL LIGHTS DOESN'T COME ON WHEN I TURN ON THE HEADLIGHTS. THE CAR BOUNCES AND SWAY TO THE SIDE EACH TIME I HIT A POTHOLE NO MATTER HOW SMALL THE POTHOLE IS.

RATTLING/KNOCKING NOISE WHILE CAR IS RUNNING, INCREASE IN NOISE AS YOU ACCELERATE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 HYUNDAI ELANTRA. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED, AN ABNORMAL NOISE WAS DETECTED. ALSO, WHILE DRIVING MORE THAN 60 MPH OVER A BUMP, THERE WAS AN ABNORMAL CLICKING NOISE DETECTED FROM THE STEERING WHEEL AND THE VEHICLE VIBRATED.

ENGINE TICKING AT IDLE AND ACCELERATION. HAD LIFTERS REPLACED AND OIL PUMP COSTING $1500. ENGINE CONTINUED WITH TICKING NOISE. BROUGHT IT TO MY LOCAL HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP WHICH IS 2.5 HOURS AWAY. THEY TOLD ME I NEEDED A NEW MOTOR. HYUNDAI HAS DECLINED THE REQUEST RELATED TO MILEAGE AND TIME. REALLY. THIS VEHICLE ONLY HAS 79,000 MILES ON IT. HYUNDAI CURRENTLY HAS A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT RELATED TO THE TICKING NOISE. HYUNDAI KNOWS THAT THE ENGINES ARE FAULTY BUT REFUSE TO PUT OUT A RECALL. HOW CAN YOU LET HYUNDAI CONTINUE TO RESELL THESE CARS. THIS IS BASICALLY FRAUD. HYUNDAI ELANTRAS FROM 2011-2016 WITH THE 1.8L ENGINE ARE THE ONES AFFECTED. HYUNDAI DOESN'T STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT. I HAVE NEVER HEARD OF A MOTOR GOING WITH ONLY 79,000 MILES ON IT. SOMEONE NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING TO MAKE HYUNDAI ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR FAULTY PRODUCTS. TAKE THE VEHICLES WITH THE 1.8L OFF THE MARKET.

I NOTICED A TICKING NOISE COMING FROM MY VEHICLE. I TOOK IT TO A HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP AND THEY INFORMED ME I WOULD NEED TO REPLACE MY ENGINE. THE VEHICLE HAS 73,000 MILES AND WAS MAINTAINED (OIL ALWAYS CHANGED ON TIME). I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE FROM MY GRANDFATHER AND HAD IT LESS THAN A YEAR. BECAUSE I WAS THE SECOND OWNER, I WAS NOT COVERED UNDER THE 10 YEAR/1000,000 MILE WARRANTY. THE HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP SUBMITTED DOCUMENTATION AND PHOTOGRAPHS OF THE ENGINE TO SEE IF HYUNDAI WOULD COVER ANY OF THE COST OF A NEW ENGINE. HYUNDAI DECLINED TO COVER ANY OF THE COST OF THE ENGINE. I CALLED CUSTOMER SERVICE AND WAS ASSIGNED A CASEWORKER TO LOOK AT THE SUBMITTAL IN GREATER DETAIL. THE CASEWORKER INFORMED ME THEY WOULD NOT COVER ANY OF THE COST REGARDLESS THAT MANY PEOPLE WERE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS WITH THEIR ENGINES.

REAR BRAKE PADS SEPARATED AFTER 50,000 MILES OF MAINLY HIGHWAY DRIVING (MY HONDA ACCORD, DRIVEN SIMILARLY, HAD BRAKE PADS LAST 150,000 MILES). VEHICLE IS GARAGED.

FRONT COIL SPRING FRACTURED AND CONTACTED TIRE. LUCKILY I WAS PULLING OUT OF MY PARKING SPOT. BY THE LOOKS OF THE DAMAGE TO THE TIRE, I AM VERY FORTUNATE I HAVE BEEN LIKE THIS AND NOT AT ANY LEVEL OF SPEED. THE FOLLOWING MORNING I LOOKED INTO THE PROBLEM AND FOUND AN ARTICLE BY EDMOND IN MAY 2015 THAT TALKED ABOUT YOUR ORGANIZATION RECALLING HYUNDAI ELANTRA'S?S FOR FRONT COIL SPRING PROBLEMS. FROM THE ARTICLE THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED TO MY CAR. I CALLED HYUNDAI CORPORATION THEY SAID IT WAS NOT UP FOR A RECALL. TWO CALLS TO DEALERSHIPS I WAS AGAIN TOLD THERE WAS NO RECALL. PLEASE FORCE HYUNDAI TO RECALL THIS POTENTIALLY DEADLY ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN AT THEIR EXPENSE. THANK YOU, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

THE CRANKSHAFT PULLEY STRIPPED FROM CRANKSHAFT! ABOUT 30K MILES BEFORE WE STARTED NOTICING ENGINE NOISES - LOUD TICKING NOISES. AFTER HAVING MY SPOUSE PARK THE VECHICLE BECAUSE WAS HARD KNOCKS, I TOOK IT OUT WITH MY DAUGHTER TO TAKE HER TO GUITAR LESSONS AND TO LISTEN TO IT AS I DROVE. ON THE WAY BACK TO THE (LESS THAN 3 MILES) THE ENGINE DIED AS THERE WAS A LOUD SCREECH/KNOCK. I RESTARTED THE ENIGNE AND DROVE BACK HOME. THE COOLANT AND OIL WAS EVERYWHERE. THAT'S WHEN I NOTICES THE PULLEY WAS LOOSE AND I WAS ABLE TO PULL IT OFF THE CRANKSHAFT. THE ODDEST THING I'VE EVER SEEN. THE ENGINE (I BELIEVE) STILL STARTS BUT TICKETING DOES PERSIST. NOT SURE WHAT HAPPENED BUT CLEARLY THE ENGINE HAD SOME ISSUES WITH IT. THERE WAS NOTHING WE'VE DONE WITH THE VEHICLE OTHER THAN NORMAL, HIGHWAY DRIVING. I'VE CONTACT CORPORATE HYUNDAI AND THEY HAVE INDICATED IT'S NOT LONGER COVERED AND NO WORK CAN BE DONE ON IT. MY CONCERN - OUTSIDE OF 5K LOST ON THE VEHICLE IS THIS IS A MAJOR CONCERN FOR ALL THE VEHICLES OUT THERE - ESPECIALLY AT THE LOWER MILEAGE. I FREAKED OUT ON THE ROAD WHEN I HEARD THE NOISES AND FELT LIKE MY ENGINE COMPLETELY FELL APART. MY SAFETY WAS MY CONCERN. SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THIS ENGINE AND IT'S NOT JUST MINE. IF IT HAPPENED TO ME...A SIMILAR OCCURRENCE IS HAPPENING TO OTHERS. I SENSE HYUNDAI IS NOT DOING IT'S PART TO RECTIFY THIS ISSUE ESPECIALLY WITH SUCH A CORE/CRITICAL PART OF THE VEHICLE. I'VE LOST CONFIDENCE IN THEIR VEHICLES...ESPECIALLY WITH LACK OF OWNERSHIP OF TH

THE ENGINE IN THIS CAR IS KNOCKING SEVERELY. IT'S REALLY BAD UPON START UP AND CONTINUES TO KNOCK.

KNOWN HYUNDAI ENGINE PROBLEMS THE ENGINE HAS A TICKING NOISE THAT I HAVE FOUND TO BE A MANUFACTURED ISSUE IN HYUNDAI ELANTRAS. THE CAMSHAFT BUSHINGS ARE WORN AWAY AND NEEDS A COMPLETELY NEW ENGINE. ALL OF WHICH IS A MANUFACTURING FAULT. THE TICKING IS AUDIBLE WHEN IDLING AND EVEN MORE SO WHEN THE ACCELERATOR IS PUSHED.

'TAKATA RECALL' (1) SUSPENSION PROBLEM.. IT DRIFTS OR BOUNCES TO ONE SIDE WHEN I HIT A BUMP OR WHEN I GO INTO A POTHOLE... I HAVE HAD TO TAKE IT TO DIFFERENT AUTO MECHANICS TO FIX THIS BUT HAVEN'T GOTTEN ANY SOLUTION.. CHANGED SWAY BAR LINKS, TIE-RODS, STRUTS AND BALL JOINTS, STILL NO IMPROVEMENT. (2) STEERING ISSUES - STEERING FEELS STIFF WHEN TURNING AND SOMETIMES MAKES FUNNY SOUNDS (3) CLUNKING NOISE IN FRONT RIGHT SIDE OF CAR

THE BREAK SWITCH IS FAULTY RESULTING IN MY BREAK LIGHTS NOT ILLUMINATING.

FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE SUSPENSION COIL BROKE WHILE DRIVING DOWN A CITY STREET DURING THE WINTER TIME AT LOW SPEED. THIS SEEMS LIKE THE SAME (OR AT LEAST VERY SIMILAR) ISSUE AS 15V629000, WHICH COVERS THE SAME MAKE, MODEL, AND MANUFACTURE DATE AS MY CAR, BUT MY VIN IS NOT IN THAT RECALL.

2011 HYUNDAI ELANTRA. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO LOUD TICKING NOSE FROM ENGINE. *LD *TR THE CONSUMER STATED THE DEALER FOUND DEBRIS IN THE OIL PAN AND THE ENGINE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONSUMER STATED THAT THERE ARE OTHER VEHICLES WITH THE SAME FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER DECLINED TO ASSIST WITH REPAIRS DUE TO THE VEHICLE'S AGE, MILEAGE, AND NUMBER OF OWNER'S. *JS

WHEN I DROVE (IN MOTION) MY CAR OVER POTHOLES OR ROAD EDGES, MY CAR IS DRIFTING BY SIDE TO SIDE. I HAD THIS ISSUE FROM THE LAST 6 MONTHS. I SHOWED MY CAR TO A DIFFERENT HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP, BUT THEY COULD NOT FIND THE EXACT REASON AND I SPENT AROUND $2000 TO REPLACE ALL THE PARTS AS PER HYUNDAI'S DEALERSHIP SUGGESTION. AFTER SPENDING THIS MUCH OF MONEY I STILL HAVE A DRIFTING ISSUE IN POTHOLES. RECENTLY, I CONTACTED OTHER HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP .AND THEY SUGGESTED ME TO REPLACE STEERING COLUMN AND UNIVERSAL SHAFT. I AM VERY FRUSTRATED NOW AND REQUESTING HYUNDAI AMERICA TO TAKE CARE OF THIS ISSUE BY THEIR SIDE BECAUSE IT IS REALLY A SAFETY CONCERN.

2011 ELANTRA SPRING COIL FAILURE... OUR FAMILY HAS GREAT CONCERNS TO THE PUBLIC SAFETY REGARDING THE RISK MANAGEMENT ACTIVITIES BY HYUNDAI ON NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER 15V629000 (MANUFACTURER RECALL 133). REVIEWING THE 20 NHTSA RECALL DOCUMENTS ATTACHED TO THIS RECALL AND OUR OWN PERSONAL EXPERIENCE, WE BELIEVE THAT THE RISK MANAGEMENT ACTIVITIES, INCLUDING: FAILURE INVESTIGATION, CORRECTIVE/PREVENTIVE ACTIONS AND RANGE OF VEHICLES AFFECTED NEEDS TO BE REVISITED... SEE ATTACHED PDF AND IMAGES FOR DETAILS

MY CAR WON'T START WHEN TURNING THE KEY IT WOULD MAKE A CLICK NOISE BUT WON'T TURN ON UNLESS YOU TRY SEVERAL TIMES AND SOMETIMES IT WOULD TAKE A HOUR OR MORE TO DO SO. TWO YEARS AGO CHANGED THE BATTERY THINKING IT WAS THAT BUT AFTER ALL THE DEALER SAID IT WAS THE STARTER SO IT GOT CHANGED. THREE YEARS SINCE THEN NOW I AM HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. TOOK IT TO THE MECHANIC AND THE CAR LOOKS FINE EVERYTHING WAS DIAGNOSED AND SEEMS OK SO DECIDED TO LEAVE IT OVERNIGHT SO THEY CAN TEST IT NEXT DAY. ONCE THEY DID THE CAR DIDN'T WANT TO TURN ON SO THEY BOOSTED IT AND SAID IT WAS THE BATTERY. AFTER CHANGING THE BATTERY THREE DAYS LATER THE CAR STILL GIVING ME THE SAME PROBLEM SOMETIMES IT WON'T TURN ON. NEXT STEP WILL BE CHANGE THE STARTER AGAIN BUT MECHANICS CAN'T FIND THE REAL PROBLEM BECAUSE ONCE THE CAR DESIDES TO TURN ON THERE IS NO PROBLEM BUT IT IS A STRUGGLE NOT KNOWING WHEN AND WHERE THIS WILL HAPPEN, IT IS VERY UNSAFE.

RECALL 133 FOR 2011 HYUNDAI ELANTRA, I HAVE OWNED THIS CAR FOR ABOUT A YEAR AND A HALF. (MANY PROBLEMS SINCE I OWNED IT) BUT YESTERDAY A COIL SPRING BROKE AND SLASHED THE INSIDE OF MY TIRE, VERY DANGEROUS! I HAD TO GET MY CAR TOWED. MY MECHANIC DAID THERE IS A RECALL BUT HYUNDAI WOULDN'T RECOGNIZE IT. HE ALSO IT'S THE THIRD CAR HE'S HAD TO REPAIR FIR BROKEN HYUNDAI COIL SPRINGS!! IS THERE ANYTHING YOU CAN DO TO HELP?

THE FRONT SUSPENSION COIL SPRINGS SNAPPED AND RUPTURED BOTH MY FRONT TIRES. IT SEEMS THE FRONT COIL SPRINGS GET BRITTLE IN THE WINTER AND ACTUALLY SPLINTERED OFF WHEN THEY SNAPPED, THIS CAUSED THE RUPTURE TO MY TIRES. I WAS VERY LUCKY TO HAVE BEEN IN A PARKING GARAGE, GOING FIVE MPH, WHEN THE DAMAGE HAPPENED. IT WAS MERELY CAUSED BY DRIVING DOWN A PARKING RAMP. SO, IT WASN'T CAUSED BY SOME TREMENDOUS TRAUMA TO THE CAR OR ACCIDENT. THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE, AND NOW EACH SIDE WILL CAUSE $1036.00 TO FIX (BECAUSE I HAVE TO REPLACE EACH SIDE TIRE AS WELL). THE ISSUE WOULD HAVE BEEN EXACERBATED HAD I BEEN ON A HIGHWAY WHEN THIS HAPPENED, AND COULD HAVE BEEN VERY DANGEROUS.

YESTERDAY, FEBRUARY 8TH 2019, AT APPROXIMATELY 5:30 AM, MY GIRLFRIEND HAD A HIGH SPEED IMPACT (SPEED LIMIT IN THIS AREA OF ALASKA IS 65MPH) WITH A MOOSE. IT WAS A FRONTAL IMPACT ON THE BUMPER/HOOD/WINDSHIELD/ROOF, OCCURING ON THE FRONT DRIVERS SIDE. THE AIRBAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY UPON THIS INITIAL IMPACT. ADDITIONALLY, AS THE CAR LEFT THE ROAD, THERE WAS A SECOND FRONTAL IMPACT INTO A HARDENED, PLOWED SNOWBANK, IN WHICH THE AIRBAGS ALSO FAILED TO DEPLOY. THIS YEAR AND MODEL IS BELIEVED TO BE EQUIPPED WITH DRIVERS, PASSENGERS, AND SIDE CURTAIN AIRBAGS, WHICH ALL FAILED TO DEPLOY. SHE IS THE ORIGINAL OWNER OF THE VEHICLE, AND HAS NO OTHER ACCIDENTS OR REPAIRS PREVIOUSLY PERFORMED ON THE VEHICLE. WE DO NOT KNOW AS OF YET IF A STATE TROOPER REPORT WAS FILLED, WE WILL BE CHECKING MONDAY. HOWEVER, WE HAVE PHOTOS THAT WILL BE ATTACHED THAT CLEARLY SHOW THE,AIRBAG FAILURE.

AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT KEEPS GOING OFF

AIRBAG LIGHT STAYS ON. NO ACCIDENTS, NOTHING HAS HAPPENED TO CAR IT JUST RANDOMLY TURNED ON AND HAS STAYED ON. VERY UNSAFE TO BE DRIVING IN A CAR WITH MY FAMILY WITH THE CHANCE THE AIRBAGS WOULDN'T DEPLOY IF WE WERE IN AN ACCIDENT. SHOULD BE A RECALL.

I HAD ALREADY OPENED A CASE AND WAS WORKING WITH A DAVID BAKER 11131845. HE HAD ASKED ME TO TRY TO LOCATE THE PIECE OF BROKEN SPRING THAT PUNCTURED MY TIRE. I WAS ABLE TO LOCATE THAT BUT ONCE I EMAILED DAVID I RECEIVED AN EMAIL BACK SAYING THAT HIS EMAIL ADDRESS WAS NO LONGER ACTIVE. IF SOMEONE COULD TAKE A LOOK AT MY CASE AND CONTACT ME VIA EMAIL AND LET ME KNOW IF THEY STILL WANT TO LOOK AT THAT PART. THANK YOU!

DRIVING OVER A SPEED BUMP BOTH FRONT SPRING BROKE CAUSING A FRONT TIRE TO BE PUNCTURED.

CAR STALLS WHEN IDLING AND AT TIMES WHEN DECELERATING. THE CAR STARTS RIGHT BACK UP AS SOON AS I AM ABLE TO BRING IT TO A STOP. WHEN DRIVING AT A HIGH SPEED ON THE FREEWAY I DON'T NOT HAVE PROBLEMS.

WHILE DRIVING MY AIR BAG LIGHT KEEPS BLINKING AND MY HORN STOPPED WORKING. RESEARCH SHOWS THAT IT IS RELATED TO THE STEERING COLUMN AND THE PART THAT IS DEFECTIVE IS CALLED A CLOCK SPRING? THIS SHOULD BE COVERED BY RECALL?

AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON AND WONT TURN OFF.

TAKATA RECALL: WE HAVE HAVE TAKEN THE CAR TO GET INSPECTED DUE TO ENGINE LIGHT COMING ON AND OFF AND HAVE HAD TO MAKE PAYMENTS ABOUT DIFFERENT FIXES THAT WOULD APPARENTLY HELP ONLY TO NOTICE NO CHANGE AND THE LIGHT WOULD COME BACK WITHIN DAYS OR WEEKS AND COME ON AND OFF . THERE IS A SUDDEN CHANGE IN THE WAY THE VEHICLE DRIVES AFTER THE LIGHT COMES ON, AND THEN GOES AWAY. THIS NORMALLY HAPPENED IN FREEWAYS.

TAKATA RECALL MY AIRBAG LIGHT STAYS ON CONSTANTLY AND IT SEEMS TO BE AN ISSUES YBAT IS COVERED BY WARRANTY ALTHOUGH MY DEALER QUOTED ME $385
