“While driving my car started alarming saying check charging system...it immediately went to 15 miles and hour while I was on i95 where speed limit is 65 MPH. By the time I got home and turned the car off it would not turn back on. Ive had this car for a year and a half. I bought it new.”
NHTSA complaint #10969997, filed 2017-04, 60 miles“This vehicle has electric power steering. When driving on the highway, it is impossible to keep the car tracking straight. It is not a tire issue, nor is it a crown in the road issue. The vehicle must continuously be corrected to keep in a straight line. Windy conditions cause the vehicle to radically respond to adjustments, so does a large truck in front of my vehicle. Hyundai states there is nothing wrong with my vehicle. …”
NHTSA complaint #10765129, filed 2015-09, 20 miles“I was driving in the rain on 1/16/19 with my son, all of a sudden my car starts beeping and my dash board says stop driving now and check your charger system and after one hour it completely died, had to get towed home, now the dealer says the problem was the high voltage relay and connector that goes to the high voltage battery on the car that caused the battery to fail and charger system. Now I'm told I need to buy a new battery and I feel this should be covered b the warranty since this issued caused my battery to drain.”
NHTSA complaint #11171748, filed 2019-01, 55,000 miles“I was driving the car and all of a sudden is just died. Not sure what problem was. Can't be a battery problem cause the car was running. Roadside assistance tried to start the battery but that is not the problem. I have read all over the internet with complaints of this hybrid car just shutting down while driving. This is a serious safety risk and a ongoing problem. The car is a death trap and I refuse to drive it anymore. The car acceleration is met with a pause when taking off as well. I was explained its when the car switches from battery to engine for power. …”
NHTSA complaint #11123390, filed 2018-08, 52,000 miles“A few months ago the vehicle stalled at a red light. I found complaints of the same make, year and model stalling on other owners on the internet. Went to dealer and after numerous hours in the shop they could not find the problem. Today my 19 year old daughter was on a four lane highway with no pull off lanes, only cement barriers. The vehicle stalled at 60 MPH. She almost died from being hit by a tractor trailer. She was missed by only a few inches. The vehicle did start again and she got off the highway. Made complaint with Hyundai consumer affairs.”
