Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Rapid rusting of rear subframe cross member. Car rarely gets driven in snow or even bad weather. Went from minimal signs of rust to looking pretty rotted within the past year. Saw recalls on similar Hyundai vehicles. Maybe possible the same steel was used, or same lack of corrosion preventative.”
NHTSA complaint #11569185, filed 2024-02“The tether hook on our first years true fit premier car seat flattened so it will not connect to an anchor. It also will not properly stay connected to the car seat making it a projectile. (related vehicle information: model year=2004, make=Elantra, model=Hyundai).”
