The positive battery terminal melted from an electrical issue and cannot be fixed due to the model and year of my car. The whole car has fully died and is not functional. My car is available for inspection. The car has only been inspected by a mechanic. The car would have trouble starting and staying on for the last 2 months or so and right before it died it was showing the steering wheel light for 2 days and then all the lights were blinking.
A safety recall has been issued since September 2023 and still no remedy. The car should not be driven because it could catch fire. There is no time frame for the remedy. What am I suppose to do about transportation now it’s been 6mos I’ve had to borrow a vehicle.

Roughly 5 months ago i started to hear a ticking/knocking sound. since then it has gotten louder and the car is having issues accelerating. Hyundai refuses to fix it even thought they’ve had a class action for this exact issue.

Dear National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, I'm writing out of deep concern and frustration regarding the unrepaired safety recall on my 2014 Hyundai Elantra. Recall #23V651000 warns of an alarming risk of engine compartment fires, yet there's still no fix available from Hyundai. This isn't just a theoretical risk for me. I have no choice but to park my car in a public garage, making the fire hazard much worse. Hyundai's advice to park outside is impossible to follow, leaving me feeling trapped and unsafe. I find it difficult to understand why Hyundai can source parts for new vehicles, yet struggles to prioritize a fix for a potentially life-threatening safety issue affecting existing cars. I urge the NHTSA to take the following actions: * Investigate why this fix is taking so long. People's safety is on the line. * Push Hyundai to find a solution immediately. Each day of delay is unacceptable. * Keep me and other affected owners informed. The lack of updates is adding to the stress. This isn't just about my car. An engine fire in a garage could be devastating. Please act quickly.

The ABS module accordingly has been recalled this vehicle show no sign of ABS fluid leak, though can potentially. The Hyundai Manufacturer has not devised a solution to this hazzard. Hyundai has been given a reasonable amount of time to devise a solution to this recall.
My driver side sun visor exploded blocking my view and sending shards of plastic/fiberglass into my eye.

This is with regard to recall 23V651000 which has been active since 9/22/23 and the statement on your website: "If the manufacturer has failed or is unable to remedy this safety recall for your vehicle in a timely manner...file an online complaint with NHTSA." It's been over four months and there's no remedy in sight. I don't consider that timely, particularly since we've been told to park the vehicle outside. In our upper-Midwest environment, that renders our garage worthless in the winter--we're likely to have to scrape the ice off of the windows every morning before using the vehicle.
My car is only at 46000 miles.SinceI'm purchase from dealer it has given me the same issues of RPMs shooting up &speedometer going out of control the car wont go past 20mph & jerks back & forth, tyrning off while driving & has had a b"bad" drive since purchase.

Multiple safety recalls issued for many models of hyundai cars. most recent that affects the 2014 hyundai elantra and other models is faulty ABS system which could result in engine compartment fire while parked or driving. There is no available repair for this problem. I received notice in the mail on 01/03/2024. I noticed that the safety recall was issued in September of 2023. How is it acceptable that I was informed of a serious safety issue 4 months after it was found out? As I stated previously, there is not an available repair for this serious safety issue and fire risk. They are not offering free services to determine if this issue is affecting my car. Seriously negligent of Hyundai.
When I had near 50,000 miles on my car, my car emitted lots of smoke (like severe burning) from the back when I drove on highway. I had to immediately take the car to Hyundai service. They said nothing is wrong with engine. Years later, I started hearing knocking noise from the front and got engine light on twice in the past. The last time was 3 days ago when I drove to the local airport to pick up my son. Someone inspected my car yesterday because Hyundai had no availability until the next month. He advised me to take the car to Hyundai as soon as possible. I took it to Hyundai service and they said nothing is wrong just like the last time years ago. He told me oil was leaking inappropriately and damaged the motor inside. He informed me this is normal with Hyundai vehicles as they used GDI engine. Today Hyundai service charted me the inspection and said nothing is wrong with the engine. I told them I brought the car because knocking noise and engine light. I shouldn't pay even though they found nothing is wrong with the engine. I feel.very unsafe with driving this car. The guy who inspected the car said the motor is damaged due to the engine defect and excessively burn oil. They attempted to charge me for what Hyundai is responsible of ensuring the safety affected by manufacturing issues. Thank you!

The piston rings do not seal leading to increased oil consumption and very low oil. My safety was put at risk because when I pulled out into traffic that was going at a high speed I could not accelerate. There was no warning or indication that this was going on prior to this incident. Yes this has been confirmed by a Hyundai dealership and the component was inspected. There was no warning sign before this incident.

The engine started making a clicking sound, and was running rough. Then shook violently and turned off while I was on the freeway, Then getting very hot. It is defective and the dealer took it in under the t6g campaign but it was denied due to the salvage title for unrelated issues. Now it smokes if I drive it for an hour or two and takes a while to stop smoking afterwards. This car only has 120000 miles. They said it's a goodwill campaign but not a recall so they don't have to honor it. Now it runs for a few minutes but then smokes from the engine so I shut it off.
Hyundai has had numerous engine failures and fires, due to piston slap. Multiple lawsuits and recalls in other countries. Hyundai has a T6G service campaign to replace these engines and they even extended it to unlimited mileage for the first owner. The problem is that they will not honor this unless you are the first owner and you did all of your oil changes at the dealership. They have an 85% rejection rate for claims that have the eligible flaw... That is ridiculous. Why are they able to refuse to fix 85% of these engines that blow up and catch fire prematurely due to a known issue? Please recall these engines. Multiple times my engine has stopped leaving me with no power steering or brakes, one of which almost ended in a collusion on the highway. It took a lot of strength to push the break in to stop the car. The scariest moment of my life. And I knows these are an issue and the dealership even said he sees a bunch of them come in all the time with this issue, and yet until it is an actual recall and I will do nothing about it. Please please for the love of God issue a recall on these, thank you so much NHTSA for keeping automotive industry in check and making sure that our cars are safe and reliable.

ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM ("ABS") MODULE remains a threat to my life. Hyundai should be required to fix this in a timely manner, yet has failed to do so.

Brake Lights, constantly on. The vehicle, while driving, the brake lights come on and do not turn off. you must force the pedal all the way down, to, sometimes, turn them off. while driving, the lights being on, disables the ECS system, and Cruise Control. while the vehicle is parked and off the lights stay on, unless you depress the pedal, this causes power drains and dead batteries. if the lights do not work, this is a hazard to drive at any time of day. lights will also come on while car is off and has been off for some time.

NHTSA publishes every complaint as the owner wrote it and investigates only a fraction. Spelling, capitalisation and judgement are the filer’s own. What carries weight is repetition: the same component failing the same way across many filings, and whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
