Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“The vehicle speedometer is occasionally 5mph off. When I first get into the vehicle after it’s been sitting for a while and drive around, the speedometer works perfectly. If I shut the vehicle off while getting gas, running an errand or something similar that involves the vehicle sitting for a semi-short period of time, the speedometer will be 5mph off when driving. …”
NHTSA complaint #11615185, filed 2024-09“I have gone 3 times to dealer because speedometer was off. They confirmed that the speedometer was off but they couldn't do anything about it. They told me that for this car, there is no VSS and the speedometer gets the speed from the navigation system. The navigation system is obviously glitching which is causing this. I am not the only person experiencing this. This has to be taken care of and taken seriously”
NHTSA complaint #11663368, filed 2025-05“I purchased this vehicle brand new off of the lot February 2024. Since then, I have had two incidents where in the middle of driving my vehicle has completely shut off. The first experience, I was driving 50+ mph. First my headlights went out, my engine shut off, my dashboard shut off, and I was cruising without power or control over my vehicle for about 5 seconds before everything turned back on. I took my car to the dealership where they “could not confirm concern” after driving around for 15 miles trying to recreate the issue. …”
NHTSA complaint #11646486, filed 2025-03“As I’m driving 75 MPH, my car slows down and on the dash board it reads 20 MPH LIMIT. I’m on the Expressway and, prayerfully, by putting on my HAZARD BLINKERS, I pull over, wherever it’s safe, turn car off, restart the car and then it’s fine. PLEASE HELP BECAUSE THIS IS A LIFE THREATENING SITUATION! SCARED 😨 😱 This has occurred SEVERAL TIMES.. Approximately 1 month ago I took it into SERVICE DEPARTMENT (kept 1 week and never slowed down on them. Again, once the car is turned off, it drives fine. How can I turn off this 20 mph hour limit on dashboard. …”
NHTSA complaint #11587468, filed 2024-05“Hello, thanks for reviewing. I recently bought a brand new Hyundai (VIN provided) and the speedometer intermittently is inaccurate. Maybe 50% of the time, which I would argue is less safe since I can’t reliably tell what my speed is. When it is an issue, it’s worse the faster I drive. It breaks the 10% threshold I’ve read about around 30mph, where it will say 26mph. I brought it to the Hyundai dealership and they claimed they couldn’t replicate the issue so they won’t fix it - but it’s intermittent and I have picture / video proof from multiple dates. I used various speed sources to be sure. …”
