2005 Hyundai XG350 complaints

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

ON FEW OCCASIONS I EXPERIENCED FAULTY ACTIVATION OF ABS BRAKES DRIVING AT A LOW SPEED. LAST TIME IT WAS AT A SPEED LOWER THAN 10 MPH WHEN I WAS NOT EVEN PUSHING BRAKE PEDAL. ABS ACTIVATED FOR FEW SECONDS WHILE DRIVING. RESEARCHING ON INTERNET IT APPEARS THAT MY PROBLEM IS NOT UNIQUE. SHOULD THERE BE A RECALL OR AT LEAST FREE REPAIR OF ABS SYSTEM ON AFFECTED VEHICLES? *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 HYUNDAI XG350. WHILE DRIVING 50 MPH, THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE FAILURE OCCURRED ONLY ONCE. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE AIR BAG NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS ALSO TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO ADVISED THE CONTACT TO ACTIVATE THE CRUISE CONTROL TO REMEDY THE AIR BAG FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED AND THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 46,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 HYUNDAI XG350. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE FAILURE RECURRED SEVERAL TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE BUT RESET THE LIGHT EACH TIME. THE FAILURE CONTINUOSLY RECURRED. THE LAST TIME THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, THE TECHNICIAN STATED THAT THERE WAS A POSIBILITY THAT THE FRONT DRIVERS AIR BAG WAS DEFECTIVE. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 65,000. UPDATED 8/19/14*CN UPDATED 8/28/2014 *JS

I WAS BRAKING MY CAR AT THE END OF MY WORK'S DRIVEWAY WHICH ENTERS INTO A "T" INTERSECTION. UPON REACHING A SLOW SPEED OF 5 MPH THE CAR SURGED INTO THE TRAFFIC WHICH WAS TRAVELING FROM MY LEFT AND RIGHT. BRAKING FULLY HAD NO EFFECT ON THE SURGE AND THANKFULLY I WAS NOT HIT BY ANY LEFT OR RIGHT TRAVELING VEHICLES AND I JUST MISSED A VEHICLE CROSSING IN FRONT OF ME BY AN INCH AS IT PASSED. STILL BRAKING FULLY, MY CAR CROSSED THE ENTIRE ROAD AND JUMPED A CURB, SLIGHTLY HIT A RISING GRASSY HILL AND FINALLY CAME TO REST FULLY ON THE HILL ONLY AFTER I PUNCHED THE SHIFT INTO NEUTRAL. I SHOULD HAVE BEEN KILLED AND I COULD HAVE SERIOUSLY HURT THE INDIVIDUAL CROSSING IN FRONT OF ME. THIS HAS BEEN THE FOURTH INCIDENT OF THIS NATURE. THE FIRST THREE INVOLVED SOFT TAPS TO THE REAR BUMPER OF CARS STOPPED IN FRONT OF ME WHILE I WAS BREAKING AND THE ENGINE WAS SURGING. SO VERY UNSAFE!! I CHECKED ON CARCOMPLAINTS.COM AND SAW 30 PLUS COMPLAINTS OF THE SAME NATURE. I WAS TOLD THE OLDER CARS HAD A ENGINE IDLER CONTROL TO KEEP THE ENGINE FROM STALLING AFTER BREAKING FROM HIGHER RPM'S TO NEAR 0 RPM'S. IS THIS NOW CONTROLLED WITH AN ELECTRONIC MODULE? I THINK THIS PROBLEM SHOULD CAUSE A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM. I DON'T WANT TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE ANYMORE. EVERY TIME I BRAKE I DON'T KNOW IF I AM GOING TO INJURE SOMEONE!! *TR

AIR BAG LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON. FIRST TIME WAS 7/26/08. HYUNDAI SERVICE TECH'S NOTES ON THE INVOICE INDICATE THE SIDE AIR BAG AND WIRING HARNESS WAS FAULTY. THIS WORK WAS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN MAYBE 6 MONTHS LATER, BUT WENT OFF A FEW DAYS LATER. THE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN 3/31/10. HYUNDAI TECH NOTES INDICATE THE WIRE TO SRS CONNECTION WAS REPAIRED. WORK WAS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. THE NEXT TIME WAS LATE NOV 2011. I TOOK CAR TO MY LOCAL AUTO CARE FOR ANNUAL INSPECTION. THE CAR FAILED BECAUSE THE AIR BAG LIGHT WAS ON. ACCORDING TO THE TECH DIAGNOSIS, "DRIVERS SIDE AIR BAG HIGH RESISTANCE. RR ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR AND APPLY STABILANT - 22A TO CONNECTOR FOR TERMINAL ADHESION. IF CODE RETURNS IN FUTURE, VEHICLE WILL NEED ENTIRE AIR BAG HARNESS." LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN SOMETIME IN LATE 2012. I TOOK IT TO MY LOCAL AUTO CARE FOR ANNUAL INSPECTION IN DEC. 2012. IT FAILED BECAUSE OF THE AIR BAG LIGHT. IN JANUARY 2013, I TOOK THE CAR TO A DIFFERENT HYUNDAI SERVICE DEPT. FOR "2ND OPINION". THEIR DIAGNOSIS: "DRIVERS SEATBACK OCCUPANCY SENSOR SHORTED/PART ONLY COMES W/SEAT, EST. TO REPLACE DRIVERS SEATBACK-$1,749.00." I TOOK THE CAR BACK TO MY ORIGINAL HYUNDAI SVC DEPT WITH THIS INFORMATION AND THEY DID ANOTHER FIX SO I COULD PASS INSPECTION. THE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN IN SEPTEMBER 2013, THEY DETERMINED THE SEAT BACK WAS NEEDED AND IT WOULD COST $ 2,100. I GOT THE REPAIR DONE ON 2/14/14 FOR $2,161.56. THE LIGHT CAME BACK ON AGAIN 2 WEEKS AGO. I HAVE AN APPOINTMENT WITH THE HYUND

WHEN THE POWER SEAT WAS MOVED, IT DISENGAGED THE AIR BAG SYSTEM AND THE LIGHT ON THE DASHBOARD CAME ON ALERTING ME THAT THE AIR BAG SYSTEM WAS DISENGAGED.. THUS, IF I HAD AN ACCIDENT DURING THIS PERIOD, THE AIR BAGS WOULD NOT HAVE ENGAGED. I SUBSEQUENTLY TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR A WARRANTY REPAIR. THEY REENGAGED THE SYSTEM AND SENT ME ON MY WAY. AGAIN ON 11/4/09 I HAD TO HAVE ANOTHER WARRANTY REPAIR AND AGAIN ON 1/4/10 AND 2/23/11. EACH TIME I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIR AND ASKED IF IT COULD BE PERMANENTLY FIXED. EACH TIME THEY SAID THEY HAD TO REMOVE THE SEATS AND RECONNECT THE WIRES FOR THE SYSTEM TO REENGAGE. EACH ONE WAS COVERED BY THE WARRANTY. HOWEVER ON 8/23/12 THEY SAID IT WASN'T UNDER WARRANTY ANYMORE AND THEY WOULD CHARGE ME TO FIX IT. THEY WERE TOO EXPENSIVE AND I TOOK IT ELSEWHERE TO GET IT FIXED. THIS OCCURRED AGAIN ON 1/30/13 AND I HAD TO PAY TO GET IT FIXED. I HAVE HAD TO PERMANENTLY KEEP THE FRONT SEATS IN THE SAME POSITION SINCE THEN SO I WOULDN'T DISENGAGE THE SYSTEM. EACH TIME I GO FOR ROUTINE MAINTENANCE I HAVE A SHEET OF PAPER ON THE STEERING WHEEL INDICATING NOT TO MOVE THE SEATS FOR FEAR OF DISENGAGEMENT. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THE MANUFACTURER CAN'T PERMANENTLY FIX THIS ISSUE AT THEIR COST. THIS SEEMS TO BE A SAFETY ISSUE TO ME. THANK YOU. *TR

THE AIR BAG LIGHT IS ALWAYS ON. FROM WHAT I WAS TOLD BY A MECHANIC THIS IS A DEFECT FROM HYUNDAI AS THE WIRING IS FAULTY. THIS MAY AFFECT THE AIR BAG FROM PROPERLY WORKING IF THERE IS A ACCIDENT. HYUNDAI IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM AS THERE ARE SO MANY COMPLAINTS AND YET THEY DO NOTHING TO FIX IT. SO THE LIGHT ON THE DASHBOARD STAYS ON THAT SAYS AIRBAG. NOT VERY COMFORTING FROM A SAFETY STANDPOINT. *TR

AIR BAG INDICATOR LIGHT ON DASHBOARD REMAINS ILLUMINATED DUE TO MANUFACTURER DEFECT OF HARNESS BEING TOO SHORT TO ACCOMMODATE MOVEMENT IN DRIVER AND PASSENGER SEAT. I HAVE TAKEN MY VEHICLE IN TO REPAIR SHOPS AND THEY HAVE VERIFIED THIS DEFECT. THEY QUOTED ME OVER 700.00 TO FIX THIS ISSUE. THEY SAID THE ENTIRE MODULE HAS TO BE REPLACED SINCE THE HARNESS IS NOT LONGER AVAILABLE. THIS IS A MAJOR COMPLAINT FOR THIS MODEL VEHICLE, BUT HYUNDAI IS NOT ADDRESSING THIS DEFECT. IT IS POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE! *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 HYUNDAI XG350. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN FOR ROUTINE SERVICE WHEN THE DEALER INFORMED HIM THAT THE SUB FRAME WAS RUSTED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED .THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 65,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.

THE "AIR BAG" DASH ICON LIGHT STAYS ON ALL THE TIME. HYUNDAI HAS "FIXED" IT ONCE BY RE-INSERTING CONNECTORS UNDER THE DRIVER'S SEAT. THE "FIX" LASTED A COUPLE OF DAYS. THE VEHICLE NOW HAS 61,000 MILES ON-STILL UNDER THE 10K MILE WARRANTY, AND THE LIGHT STAYS ON STILL. HYUNDAI KEEPS SAYING THAT IT WILL COST OVER $500 JUST TO DIAGNOSE. HYUNDAI HAS NO SOLUTION FOR THIS ISSUE, THE INTERNET SEARCHES WILL SHOW THAT. THIS SRS LIGHT PROBLEM IS ENDEMIC WITH ALL HYUNDAIS IN THE EARLY TO MID 2000'S. AN INTERNET SEARCH WILL SHOW HUNDREDS OF SRS "LIGHT-ON" ISSUES WITH THESE HYUNDAIS. THERE IS NO QUESTION THAT ALL THESE MODEL'S SRS SYSTEMS ARE PROBLEMATIC AT BEST AND A TOTAL FAILURE AT WORST. ALL PEOPLE DRIVING THESE MODEL HYUNDAIS ARE ABSOLUTELY AT RISK. A RECALL IS POSITIVELY REQUIRED. LIKE I SAID, JUST DO A SEARCH ON HYUNDAI SRS/AIR BAG/AIRBAG LIGHT AND YOU CAN SEE THE MAGNITUDE OF THE ISSUE. I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT I AM THE FIRST TO COMPLAIN ABOUT THIS ISSUE, SO WHAT IS HAPPENING!? IN NO SEARCH IS THERE A SOLUTION: CHECK CONNECTORS UNDER THE SEAT, JIGGLE THIS OR THAT, BUT NO SOLUTION THAT WORKS AND NO RECOGNITION FROM HYUNDAI OF THE PROBLEM....AND THIS IS A LIFE THREATENING ISSUE NOT JUST AN INCONVENIENCE. THESE MODELS NEED TO BE RECALLED AND AT THE VERY LEAST HYUNDAI HAS TO COME UP WITH A REAL SOLUTION. *TR

AIR BAG LAMP IS ON...WIRE UNDER PASSENGERS SEAT THIS HAS HAPPEN MULTIPLE TIMES. *TR

2005 HYUNDAI XG350. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO CONTINUING VEHICLE AIR BAG LIGHT MALFUNCTION AFTER REPAIRS. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED FOUR MONTHS AFTER SHE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE, THE AIR BAG LIGHT ILLUMINATED. SHE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER ON JUNE 2, 2006, IN WHICH THEY PROMPTLY MADE THE NECESSARY REPAIRS. HOWEVER, THE AIR BAG LIGHT ILLUMINATED AGAIN, SEVEN MONTHS LATER. SHE RETURNED TO THE DEALER ON JANUARY 19, 2007 AND THE REPAIRS MADE. THE CONSUMER RETURNED TO THE DEALER SIX MORE TIMES, FOR THE AIR BAG LIGHT PROBLEM. SEVERAL COMPONENTS WERE REPLACED. THE LAST REPAIR SHOP, SUSPECTED THE AIR BAG MODULE WAS BAD. *JB

2005 HYUNDAI XG350L. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO VEHICLE SUDDEN ACCELERATION ACCIDENT. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED AS SHE WAS PREPARING TO PARK IN AN ANGLE PARKING SPACE ALONG THE WEST SIDE, GROUND LEVEL, OF THE PARKING GARAGE, SHE PRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL TO SLOW THE VEHICLE TO MAKE A RIGHT TURN INTO THE PARKING SPACE, IT SUDDENLY ACCELERATED RESULTING IN A SEVERE COLLISION WITH THE CONCRETE WALL. AS THE VEHICLE ACCELERATE FORWARD, THE CONSUMER DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL AS HARD AS SHE COULD. ALSO, THE AIR BAG DID NOT DEPLOY IN THE ACCIDENT. THE VEHICLE WAS DECLARED TOTALED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 HYUNDAI XG350. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG WARNING LAMP ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE THE TECHNICIAN STATED THAT THE CONNECTION UNDER THE SEAT WAS DEFECTIVE THE AIR BAG CONNECTOR WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 88,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 134,000. UPDATED 4/1/13 *CN

AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ON DASH WAS ON, AND DEALER SAID THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE CONNECTOR ON THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. WAS QUOTED APPROXIMATELY $400 TO REPAIR THE PROBLEM AND WAS TOLD SAFETY ITEMS WERE NOT COVERED AFTER THE VEHICLE 100,000 MILE WARRANTY HAD EXPIRED. IT SEEMS THE AMOUNT TO COVER A SIMPLE CONNECTOR PROBLEM IS EXCESSIVE, ESPECIALLY SINCE IT IS DIRECTLY SAFETY RELATED TO PASSENGERS OF THE VEHICLE. THE DEALER COULD NOT EXPLAIN IF THE SRS SYSTEM WOULD WORK OR NOT WITH THE WARNING LIGHT ON. HOW CAN THEY DETERMINE WHERE THE PROBLEM IS IF THEY DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT THE RESULTS OF THE PROBLEM WILL BE? NOW I DON'T KNOW IF ANY OF THE SRS SYSTEM AIR BAGS WILL DEPLOY IN AN ACCIDENT. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 HYUNDAI XG350. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER FOR A DIAGNOSTIC TEST, WHICH DETERMINED THAT THE AIR BAG SENSOR FOR THE DRIVER'S SEAT WAS DEFECTIVE. THE DEALER ADVISED THAT THE ENTIRE DRIVER'S SEAT ASSEMBLY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. NEITHER THE DRIVER'S SEAT NOR THE SENSOR WAS REPLACED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 88,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

I PURCHASED A 2005 HYUNDAI XG350 L OCTOBER 23,2012. ONE WEEK LATER THE AIR BAG LIGHT APPEARED ON THE DASH. A MECHANIC TOLD ME THAT IT IS CAUSED BY THE AIRBAG CONNECTOR UNDER THE SEAT, THE YELLOW CONNECTOR. IF IT IS DISCONNECTED AND RECONNECTED THE WARNING LIGHT WOULD GO OFF. I LOOKED FOR IT AND FOUND IT. I WAS NOT ABLE TO REACH FAR ENOUGH TO DISCONNECT IT, BUT I WAS ABLE TO WIGGLE THE CONNECTOR AND THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT WENT OFF. IT APPEARED THAT SOMEONE HAD BEEN UNDER THE DRIVERS SEAT BEFORE TO ADJUST THAT CONNECTOR AS IT WAS HANGING AND DID NOT LOOK TO BE PROPERLY PLACED. THE NEXT DAY THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN. I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO GET THE LIGHT TO GO OFF AGAIN AND IT REMAINS ON. A HYUNDAI SERVICE ADVISER TOLD ME THAT IT IS A COMMON ISSUE. I RESEARCHED IT ONLINE TO FIND OUT THAT WHEN THAT LIGHT IS ON, THE AIRBAG WILL NOT WORK. I ALSO DISCOVERED THAT PEOPLE HAVE PAID TO HAVE THIS ISSUE REPAIRED MORE THAN ONCE AND HAVE SPENT A LOT OF MONEY TO HAVE THIS FIXED AND IT JUST CONTINUES. THIS IS A DEFECT AND HYUNDAI HAS RECEIVED MANY COMPLAINTS YET THEY HAVE NOT ISSUED A RECALL. INSTEAD THEY CONTINUE TO TAKE MONEY FROM PEOPLE TO REPAIR A PART THAT CAN NOT BE REPAIRED AS IT IS DEFECTIVE. I GOT A PRICE QUOTE TO REPLACE THE CONNECTOR. THE PART ALONE IS OVER $130. THE LABOR MORE THAN TRIPLES THE COST. OWNERS OF THIS VEHICLE HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING THIS PROBLEM AS EARLY AS THE 1ST YEAR OF OWNERSHIP IN 2005. IT IS NOW ALMOST 2013 AND HYUNDAI STILL HAS NOT ISSUED A RECAL

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 HYUNDAI XG-350L. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND WOULD STAY ON CONSISTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER AND THEY ADVISED HIM THAT THE AIR BAG CONNECTORS TO THE WIRING HARNESS FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN REPAIRED FOR THE BACK OF THE FRONT SEATS AND THE WIRING HARNESS. THE REMEDY FAILED TO REPAIR THE PROBLEM. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER APPROXIMATELY 10 TO 15 TIMES. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND THEY OFFERED NO ASSISTANCE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 30,000. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 91,000.

AIR BAG LIGHT WILL COME ON FOR NO APPARENT REASON WHICH HAS HAPPENED TWICE NOW, 01/15/2008 29,000MILES & 08/28/2012 77,490. APPARENTLY WHEN AIR BAG LIGHT COMES ON, THE AIR BAG WILL NOT DEPLOY IN A CRASH! I RESEARCHED THIS PROBLEM ON GOOGLE AND THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS WITH REGARDS TO HYUNDAI XG350 AIR BAG PROBLEM WHICH IS A MAJOR CONCERN FOR SAFETY. FOR EXAMPLE HTTP://WWW.CARPROBLEMZOO.COM/HYUNDAI/XG350/FRONT-AIR-BAG-SENSOR-CONTROL-PROBLEMS.PHP DESPITE MANY PEOPLE SPENDING LOTS OF MONEY TO TRY TO FIX THE PROBLEM, IT SEEMS TO RETURN AGAIN AND AGAIN! HYUNDAI NEEDS TO DO A RECALL AND REPLACE THE AIRBAG FAULTY MODULE WHICH COSTS THE CONSUMER $700. MY LOCAL HYUNDAI SERVICE CENTER IS AWARE OF THE AIRBAG PROBLEM AND ALL XG350 OWNERS HAVE MADE A COMPLAINT ABOUT THE AIRBAG LIGHT! THEY IN TURN REFER OWNERS' COMPLAINTS TO HYUNDAI AND EVERYONE HAS BEEN WAITING FOR AN ANSWER!!! *TR

THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT WENT ON INDICATING THAT THE AIRBAGS WERE NOT FUNCTIONING. THE PROBLEM WAS CORRECTED HOWEVER IT CONTINUES TO REOCCUR AND HAS OCCURED 8 TIMES OVER THE LAST TWO YEARS. HYUNDAI HAS "FIXED" THE PROBLEM BY ADJUSTING A CONNECTOR UNDER THE SEAT HOWEVER THE PORBLEM CONTINUES TO REOCCUR. IT HAS NOW HAPPENED 8 TIMES AND AFTER THE LAST "REPAIR" 3 WEEKS AGO THE WARNING LIGHT IS BACK ON. WHEN THE LIGHT IS ON WE HAVE NO AIRBAG PROTECTION. CHECKING THE INTERNET I FOUND THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM FOR WHICH HYUNDAI HAS NO REAL FIX. HYUNDAI IS NOW CHARGING US TO "FIX" THE PROBLEM BUT THE FIX ONLY LAST 2-4 WEEKS AND THE WARNING LIGHT GOES BACK ON. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD AND APPARENTLY OCCURS FREQUENTLY WITH THE XG350. THE CAR NEEDS TO BE RECALLED AND A PERMANENT FIX MADE BEFORE SOMEONE IS KILLED WHEN THE AIRBAGS DO NOT ACTIVATE IN AN ACCIDENT. *TR

MULTIPLE TIMES THE AIR BAG LIGHT REMAINS LIT AND THE DEALER HAS BEEN UNSUCCESSFUL IN FIXING. 12/30/08 MILES 28,531 MILES. 12/26/09 39, 372 MILES. FIRST TIME DEALER FOUND PASS SIDE AIRBAG LIGHT DEFECT SEATBACK CODE B1382. SECOND TIME DEALER RESET. IN 2010 RETURNED TO DEAL AND DEALER REPLACED AIRBAG HARNESS. LIGHT RETURNED IN 2011 AND 2012 AND I HAD IT RESET. *JS

AIR BAG LIGHT HAS REPEATEDLY COME ON. EACH TIME IT COMES ON, I TAKE IT TO THE DEALER. THEY CLAIM TO FIX IT AND THE LIGHT GOES OFF. WITHOUT FAIL IT COMES BACK ON WITHIN A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME. I AM CONCERNED FOR MY SAFETY AND THE SAFETY OF MY PASSENGERS.. FORBID WE ARE IN AN ACCIDENT. *JS

2005 HYUNDAI XG350L. AIR BAG LIGHT REMAINS ILLUMINATED. WHILE UNDER WARRANTY I TOOK IT TO DEALER WHO REST THE LIGHT AND SAID IT WAS A LOSE CONNECTION AND NOT TO PUT ANYTHING UNDER THE SEAT OR MOVE THE SEAT. I FOLLOWED THE INSTRUCTIONS. WITHIN WEEKS THE LIGHT ALWAYS CAME BACK. AFTER THE WARRANTY EXPIRED THE DEALER REFUSED TO REPAIR THE PROBLEM. AFTER MUCH RESEARCH I FOUND THAT IT IS A COMMON PROBLEM IN HYUNDAI VEHICLES TO HAVE FAULTY AIRBAGS/LIGHTS TO WHICH THERE HAS NEVER BEEN A RECALL. THE DEALER DID INDICATE THAT UNDER THESE CONDITIONS THE AIR BAG WAS DISABLED AND IN AN UNSAFE CONDITION. *TR

ON MONDAY 2 MAY 2011 AT APPROX. 1645, I WAS OPERATING MY 2005 HYUNDAI XG-350 L IN THE CVS PARKING LOT ON COLUMBIA PIKE IN ARLINGTON, VIRGINIA. I PULLED SLOWLY INTO A PARKING SPACE IN FRONT OF THE BUILDING. WHILE MY FOOT WAS ON THE BRAKE PEDAL, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY ACCELERATED SPEED TOWARD THE BUILDING. I DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL FIRMLY BUT THE VEHICLE CONTINUE FORWARD OVER A PARKING BERM AND CURB STONE BEFORE STRIKING THE BUILDING. DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE WAS EXTENSIVE. THE BUILDING WAS ALSO DAMAGED AND TWO CVS EMPLOYEES REPORTED SUFFERING MINOR INJURIES FROM THE INCIDENT. *TR

I HAVE AN 2005 HYUNDAI XG350. I TOOK MY CAR TO BE INSPECTED AND I FAILED BECAUSE THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON. THE INSPECTOR SAID IT IS IN THE BOOK THAT IT HAS TO FAIL WITH THIS LIGHT ON. THE LIGHT WAS ALWAYS ON. FROM THE TIME I PURCHASED THE CAR IN PA. IN 2008. I WAS TOLD THE LIGHT WAS NOTHING AND IT WOULD GO OUT. I GOT MY CAR INSPECTED LAST YEAR AND IT WAS ON THEN. I NOW HAVE TO PAY A $89 DIAGNOSTIC FEE FOR A DEFECTIVE VEHICLE. IT WAS SOLD TO ME THIS WAY AND NOW I HAVE TO PAY $89. I MAKE MY $300 PAYMENTS I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR THEIR DEFECTIVE GOODS, THAT SHOULD HAVE HAD A RECALL BY NOW. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 HYUNDAI XG350. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH THE VEHICLE STARTED TO JERK. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE THE TECHNICIANS STATED THERE WAS A LOOSE PIN IN THE THROTTLE BODY SENSOR. THE TECHNICIANS TIGHTENED THE PIN; HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO JERK AFTER THE REPAIRS. PRIOR TO THE FAILURE OCCURRING THE DEALER REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION FOR AN UNRELATED FAILURE. AFTER THE REPLACEMENT OF THE TRANSMISSION THE JERKING MOTION IN THE VEHICLE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO STATED THAT THE TRANSMISSION CONVERTER WOULD SLIP OUT OF GEAR AND WOULD NOT STAY ENGAGED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE WARRANTY WAS VALID; HOWEVER, THE DEALER STATED THAT UNTIL A SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED THEY COULD NOT REPAIR THE FAILURE BECAUSE THE COMPUTER WAS NOT READING A FAILURE CODE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 90,000.

I PURCHASED THIS 2005 XG350 IN 2007 WITH 11,600 MILES AND UNDER WARRANTY AND TODAY'S MILEAGE IS 62,600 MILES. WHEN STARTING VEHICLE TODAY HUSBAND STATED CAR SEEMED TO BE RUNNING A LITTLE ROUGH AND I SAID IT HAS BEEN LIKE THAT SINCE WE PUT THE NEW BATTERY IN DECEMBER 2010. WE DROVE 30 MILES AT AVERAGE OF 55-60 MPH WITH LITTLE STARTING OR STOPPING. AFTER TURNING INTO THE PARKING LOT WE HAD TO DRIVE ABOUT 200 FEET TO PARK. HE TOOK HIS FOOT OFF THE ACCELERATOR AND THEN STEPPED ON THE BRAKE TO STOP. THE ENGINE PROGRESSED TO 6500 RPM'S AND COULDN'T SHIFT TRANSMISSION OUT OF DRIVE, HAD BOTH FEET ON BRAKE AND THEN SMOKE STARTED COMING OUT OF HOOD. WHEN HE FELT LIKE THE BRAKES WASN'T GOING TO STOP IT HE THEN TURNED OFF THE KEY AND FRONT WHEELS CONTINUED TO ADVANCE FORWARD AND TRIED TO CLIMB THE SIDEWALK AND EVENTUALLY SHUT DOWN. AFTERWARDS HE STATED HE FELT THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL ACTUALLY MOVE UNDER HIS FOOT AND THEN TOOK HIS FOOT OFF AND PUT BOTH FEET ON THE BRAKES. WE WERE EXTREMELY SHAKENED BY THIS EVENT AND FEARFUL FOR THE RETURN DRIVE FOR OUR SAFETY AND OTHERS WE MAY ENCOUNTER. WE RETURNED HOME SAFELY WITHOUT FURTHER INCIDENT BUT VERY CONCERNED FOR OUR SAFETY IN FUTURE. THIS HAD NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE. HOWEVER I DID REPORT TWICE TO DEALERSHIP ABOUT DECELERATION PROBLEMS. OVER THE PAST 3 YEARS AFTER STARTING VEHICLE, IT HAD NO POWER TO ACCELERATE INTO TRAFFIC. FIRST TIME COULD TURN OFF CAR AND WAIT A FEW MINUTES AND THEN RESTART AND WOULD RUN FINE. SECOND TIME DROVE 1/2 MILE AND TUR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 HYUNDAI XG350. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE ATTEMPTED TO SURGE FORWARD WHILE IT WAS STOPPED WITH HIS FOOT ON THE BRAKE PEDAL. THE CONTACT APPLIED HEAVY PRESSURE TO THE BRAKE PEDAL TO KEEP THE VEHICLE STOPPED. THE FAILURE OCCURRED FOUR TIMES. ONE OF THE FAILURES RESULTED IN A CRASH. A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED AND NO INJURIES WERE REPORTED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER ONCE WHERE THEY WERE UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 1,500 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 44,000.

OUR CAR SUDDENLY DEVELOPED A FUEL LEAK. WE WERE DRIVING AND STARTED SMELLING GASOLINE. WE PARKED THE CAR AND LET IT SIT FOR ABOUT 30 MINUTES. WE RETURNED TO CAR AND ONCE AGAIN SMELLED GASOLINE. WE NOTICED GASOLINE INSIDE THE LEFT REAR WHEEL WELL AND ON THE GROUND. WHEN THE CAR'S IGNITION SWITCH IS PLACED IN RUN FUEL BEGINS DRIPPING FROM LEFT REAR OF CAR. WE ARE HAVING THE CAR TOWED TO THE DEALER TOMORROW FOR REPAIR. *TR

AIR BAG LIGHT WILL NOT GO OFF SHORTLY AFTER PURCHASING THE VEHICLE I HAVE RETURNED IT THREE (3) TIMES TO HAVE THE AIR BAG LIGHT STAYING ON CORRECTED. TO DATE THE PROBLEM HAS NOT BEEN CORRECTED. *TR

ON THREE OCCASIONS OVER ABOUT 4-5 MONTH PERIOD ENDING JULY 2010 I EXPERIENCED SUDDEN UNINTENDED ACCELERATION WITH MY 2005 HYUNDAI XGL350. THE FIRST 2 TIMES I WAS STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT AND THE CAR STARTED TO ACCELERATE UNEXPECTEDLY. I ALREADY HAD THE BRAKE DEPRESSED FOR THE TRAFFIC STOP AND HAD TO PRESS THE BRAKE AS HARD AS POSSIBLE TO PREVENT THE CAR FROM TAKING OFF. THE UNEXPECTED ACCELERATION SURGE LASTED ABOUT 5 SECONDS THEN ENDED. THE CAR DID MOVE FORWARD BUT IN BOTH CASES I DID NOT HAVE ANY INJURIES OR DAMAGES. I DID NOT TAKE THE CAR IN FOR SERVICE AFTER EITHER OF THESE INCIDENTS. THE THIRD INCIDENT HAPPENED ON JULY 25, 2010 IN NORFOLK, VA. I WAS PARKING BETWEEN TWO CARS IN A RESTAURANT PARKING LOT. THE PARKING SPACE FACED A CURB WHICH BOARDED SOME FLORAL LANDSCAPING. WITH MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE AT ALL TIMES I VERY SLOWLY PULLED IN AND STARTED BRINGING THE CAR TO A STOP THE CAR ABOUT 3 - 4 FEET FROM THE CURB. BEFORE THE CAR CAME TO A STOP IT BEGAN TO UNEXPECTEDLY REV UP AND ACCELERATE FORWARD. I PRESSED ON THE BRAKE AS HARD AS POSSIBLE BUT THE CAR'S FRONT WHEELS MANAGE TO CLIMB OVER THE CURB AND MOVE THE FRONT OF THE CAR INTO BUSHES BEFORE THE ACCELERATION ENDED AND I WAS ABLE TO REGAIN CONTROL OF THE CAR. I PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE AND BACKED DOWN OVER THE CURB. ON THAT SAME DAY I DROVE THE CAR FOR ABOUT 12 HOURS RETURNING FROM VIRGINIA TO NEW YORK AND DID NOT EXPERIENCE ANY UNEXPECTED ACCELERATION PROBLEMS. I PLAN TO BRING THE CAR INTO THE HYUNDAI SERVICE ON JULY 27, 2010

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD WHEN A CAR, ENTERING TRAFFIC, FAILED TO STOP/YIELD AND STRUCK ME ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE. FOR LACK OF A BETTER WORD, I WAS "T-BONED" BY A CAR TRAVELING 30-40 MPH. I SUSTAINED MULTIPLE INJURIES AND HAVE INCURRED SOME PERMANENT DAMAGE. *TR

2005 HYUNDAI XG350L - INTERMITTENTLY WHEN DEPRESSING THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL, VEHICLE WILL NOT RESPOND AND AFTER A FEW SECONDS WILL SURGE FORWARD. THIS OCCURRED WHEN PULLING INTO PARKING LOT AND UPON REMOVING FOOT FROM THE GAS PEDAL, THE VEHICLE SURGED FORWARD. THE VEHICLE JUMPED A 10" CURB AND TOOK OUT A SUPPORT COLUMN. THE VEHICLE THEN HIT THE FRONT OF THE BUILDING. *TR

FAILS TO ACCELERATE WHEN PEDAL IS DEPRESSED. THEN AFTER 1 TO 3 SECONDS IT ACCELERATES LIKE A JACK RABBIT BECAUSE THE PEDAL IS DEPRESSED TOO FAR. *TR

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL IS ERRATIC AND CANNOT BE PREDICTED ON OCCASION. SOMETIMES THE VEHICLE WILL JUMP QUICKLY AT THE SMALLEST TOUCH OF THE ACCELERATOR AND OTHER TIMES IT WILL NOT MOVE FASTER THAN ABOUT 5 MPH NO MATTER HOW MUCH THE THROTTLE IS PRESSED. THIS CAUSES SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUES AS ENTERING A ROADWAY CAN BE DANGEROUS WITH LITTLE TO NO POWER AVAILABLE AT TIMES. IT ALSO MAKES NAVIGATING A SMALL AREA SUCH AS A PARKING LOT UNSAFE WHEN THE POWER IS DELIVERED FAR TOO QUICKLY. INCIDENTS TYPICALLY HAPPEN 3-4 TIMES PER DAY (MY TYPICAL COMMUTE IS ABOUT 60 MILES PER DAY). THE INCIDENTS USUALLY NEVER LAST MORE THAN 20 OR 30 SECONDS. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 HYUNDAI XG350. WHILE DRIVING 5 MPH, THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO STOP THE VEHICLE, BUT IT CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE. SHE HAD TO EXERT MAXIMUM PRESSURE TO THE BRAKE PEDAL IN ORDER TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A LOCAL REPAIR SHOP, BUT THE MECHANIC WAS UNABLE TO LOCATE THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT IS IN THE PROCESS OF NOTIFYING THE MANUFACTURER. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 40,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 41,000. UPDATED 10/06/09 *BF THE CONSUMER STATED ON A SEPARATE OCCASION WHEN THE CRUISE CONTROL WAS SET, THE VEHICLE INCREASE IN SPEED UP TO 80 MPH. UPDATED 10/08/09

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 HYUNDAI XG350. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE RPMS WOULD INCREASE UNEXPECTEDLY. HE NOTICED THE FAILURE ON THREE OCCASIONS. EVEN WHEN PRESSING FIRMLY ON THE BRAKE PEDAL, THE VEHICLE WOULD CONTINUE TO ACCELERATE. HE SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL IN AN ATTEMPT TO GAIN CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE, BUT IT CONTINUED TO REV UP UNTIL HE TURNED THE IGNITION KEY TO SHUT IT OFF. THE FAILURE SOMETIMES OCCURRED WHEN HE ATTEMPTED TO DECELERATE. HE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO TWO DIFFERENT DEALERS, BUT THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE FAILURE OR PROVIDE A FAILURE CODE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 43,000 AND FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 40,000.

I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR AN ELANTRA-AIRBAG DEFECT. I ALSO HAVE AN XG350 AND PRIOR TO IT A SENATA. BOTH OF WHICH THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON. I HAD IT TURNED OFF ON THE XG350 AND IT IS STILL ON AGAIN. I'D LIKE A RECALL LETTER FOR MY XG350. I HAD TO PAY DIAGNOSTIC PREVIOUSLY FOR THIS TO BE TURNED OFF AND I DID NOT AGREE WITH THAT. I'D LIKE SOMETHING DONE ABOUT IT. *TR

2005 XG350 HAS HAD TWO SPECIFIC PROBLEMS RELATED TO ENGAGING CAR IN DRIVE AND ACCELERATION. WHEN CAR HAS BEEN SITTING OVERNIGHT OR FOR A PROLONGED PERIOD OF TIME AND IT IS PLACED IN DRIVE, THE CAR JUST SITS THERE IN EXCESS OF 15 SECONDS AND THEN TRANSMISSION CLUNKS INTO GEAR AND STARTS GOING. THIS PROBLEM OCCURS DAILY WHEN CAR IS FIRST STARTED AND REAPPEARS IF CAR COOLS DOWN FOR SEVERAL HOURS AFTER IT HAS BEEN DRIVEN. RELATED TO THIS PROBLEM IS ACCELERATION OF VEHICLE. AFTER GEAR FINALLY ENGAGES, THE SLIGHTEST PRESSURE ON THE GAS PEDAL CAN SEND THE CAR LURCHING FORWARD QUICKLY. THE OTHER DAY WHILE BACKING OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY AND THEN PLACING CAR IN DRIVE, WAS ALMOST HIT BY ANOTHER CAR COMING DOWN THE STREET THAT NO DOUBT EXPECTED US TO BE MOVING. EVEN THOUGH WE HAD PLACED THE CAR IN DRIVE, IT WENT NOWHERE. LUCKY THE OTHER GUYS STOPPED IN TIME OR WE WOULD HAVE BEEN HIT. THIS COULD BE A REAL SAFETY ISSUE.
