“My 2013 Hyundai Azera suddenly accelerated as I applied the brakes to come to a complete stop. The RPM kept increasing when I placed it in neutral to over 4000 RPM. Ii had to turn car off in order to stop the extremely high RPM. This occurred on two occasions so far (3/18/2015 and 3/19/2015.)”

NHTSA complaint #10695317, filed 2015-03, 46,200 miles

“There is heavy black carbon buildup on the tailpipes and rear of my Azera. The Hyundai dealer said it is normal due to the type of catalytic converter they use. My lexus mechanic (our other car) said it probably a problem with the fuel to air ratio the car is using.”

NHTSA complaint #10567715, filed 2014-03, 3,000 miles

“I am experiencing a loud bang coming from underneath the rear of the vehicle. This noise occurs when the fuel tank is half full or less when slowing down and even when the vehicle has come to a complete stop. When the vehicle is in gear, the noise occurs driving forward or stopping at a light on a city road. When vehicle is put into park and shut off, the bang occurs as well. This issue started occurring on rare occasions in 2017. I brought the vehicle in for service, but the Hyundai dealer could not replicate. In 2018, the noise started occurring on a consistent basis. …”

“With a nearly full tank of gas the fuel gauge shows completely empty and the gas pump indicator begins flashing. This is a intermittent issue that occurs at random times. Took it to dealer, they were not able to duplicate event through I provided photographic evidence of the problem and was told to go away. This problem started roughly 4 weeks ago and has happened 3 times since.”
