“When I start car, in daylight, the radio/GPS screen is dim. If I restart car the car the screen comes to full brightness. All tech people at millennium Hyundai have supplied documentation that they agree with my statement but Hyundai corporation clearly refuses to fix the problem. All I have asked is that if this becomes a permanent situation after the three year guarantee they will fix it.”

“At approximately 40k miles the air bag warning indicator came on while there was a child passenger in the front seat. It only came on when my 15 year old would sit there and we were moving. I brought it to the dealer and the fault was reset. The dealer stated if it reoccured they would order a new sensor. It did reoccur this time while traveling on the highway with a 160 lb. 5'5 man in the passenger seat, and the dealer was notified. I was told that when the part came in they would call. The dealer never called. …”

“Took the car to harbor Hyundai in long beach, ca for an srs/airbag warning light that turned on and remained on in the vehicle's instrument cluster upon starting the car on 1/13/2019. The vehicle was stationary and parked in a residential street. This is a big safety concern, as the safety restraining systems may not function properly in the case of an accident. …”

“When the seatbelts are unbuckled, the warning chime does not come on. The blinker sound does not come on either. When discussed with service department at dealer, they didn't know how to fix it.”

NHTSA complaint #10837422, filed 2016-02, 10,000 miles

“My car started smoking while off and parked after the recall was initiated, and I went through my insurance but they can’t find the problem and I also contacted Hyundai who has never contacted me back. My car is still sitting at Auto Nation Hyundai and nothing has been done. I’m not driving that car with my kids or anyone in it after witnessing that and it’s a symptom of the recall. The car is not about to burn with us in it.”
