“Since last october, the car's steering has periodically failed to return to center, after taking a right handed curve. The car just keeps turning. We have taken the car back to the dealership where we leased it; however, they have repeatedly failed to fix it. I have looked the problem up on the internet and found that it is definitely a safety problem that must be fixed. Why not fix the problem before peple get hurt?”

“On 31 jan 2019-ice and snow collect in a pocket under the engine. Freezing the electronic control module for the electronic steering. The electronic steering light came on, resulting in no steering function at all. Auto had to be towed to the dealer. Lucky for me I was in a parking lot. If I had been driving it would have been catastrophic. As I was picking up my auto, another one came in on a flatbed with the exact same issue.”

“I owned the car for 9 months and never had a problem in the rain. It was raining and my car safety lights started flashing telling me that front collision warning was not working, lane departure warning was not working, blind spot detection was not working. And to check aeb system. Hyundai told me that although it worked fine for 9 months, that the safety features may not work in the rain”

NHTSA complaint #10779555, filed 2015-10, 6,300 miles

“When driving during heavy rain on the expressway the car begins to fishtail out of control. It forces the driver to drop their expressway speed to about 45 miles per hour. All the other traffic continues to pass by safely at speeds of 60 to 65 or more. This is a definite safety issue. When it began, I was nearly rear-ended by a semi when I was force to drive slowly in the right lane at only 40 to 45 in a 70 MPH zone. If I dared to even try to go any faster the car would begin fishtailing. …”

“I was attempting to make a left turn into traffic when several dashboard indicators went off and the power steering shut down. My family and I were almost hit by on coming traffic! In seconds I was faced with having to turn off and restart the vehicle in order to get it to work correctly and get out of the road. Got home and parked it over night and the next day the same thing happened again with steering and instrument cluster. I absolutely do not feel safe in this vehicle! 2015 Genesis 5.0”
