Example complaints
One per model year, chosen for length and detail. Personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
2022: “Fuel injector randomly went out, I dont have the HPFP recall done on my car. Caused a massive amount of power loss while I was going down the road. Now hyundai wants to pretend like the HPFP had nothing to do with this. I keep being told its an emission part and isnt covered under powertrain warranty. Recall in question is Extension Z04 (TSB 25-FL-002H).”
NHTSA complaint #11741524, filed 2026-062025: ““Consider taking a break” pops up constantly, especially if you’re driving through construction and just in general. It’s distracting to have to ding at me every 5-10 minutes. It will turn down my audiobook on CarPlay and make me miss information ad well as impacting my GPS giving direction. It’s pointless, frustrating, and I can’t turn it off. It should be optional.”
NHTSA complaint #11691439, filed 2025-102023: “Hyundai dealership “fixed” the recall on my car a few weeks ago. This morning my car stalled out on the highway twice due to fuel pump issues, one of those resulting in my car hitting a guardrail. Every warning light went on in the car and a service message to make an appointment at the dealership popped up. I do not believe this vehicle is safe to keep using”
