Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“The check hybrid system light came on just after I tried to accelerate from a complete stop and I had no acceleration. I had the accelerator pushed to the floor and I got no response and was not able to accelerate two different times within 5 minutes of one another. I was in traffic unable to accelerate. I took it to the dealer and they were unable to find anything wrong and told me to bring it back if it happened again.”

NHTSA complaint #11615093, filed 2024-09

“Hyundai has a service bulletin for their 12V battery but isn’t notifying owners. Today my vehicle stopped working and lost all acceleration on a busy 3 lane street that is 55mph. I was able to limp it to a left turn lane where I had to research the issue and found many others had instances like mine. The battery stops working and subsequently stops the vehicle from accelerating and tells you to ‘stop safely’ with no warning or indication that you’re about to stop moving on a road.”

“My vehicle takes over my breaks and completely takes control of my vehicle away from me (the driver). It does this randomly. I had a hit and run in a parking lot due to this issue. I am greatly concerned for my safety.”

NHTSA complaint #11514834, filed 2023-03

“On August 1st I was on the highway at 55 mph when my 2022 Hyundai Tucson decelerated to 20 mph and would not go faster. This occurred on the highway at 5:45 pm. This placed myself and others in danger as I was on the highway in the center lane at the time of the deceleration. After turning the car in, the dealership returned the car with no repairs but stating that I engaged a button that caused a limit to the car's speed. I didn't understand but took their word. I drove it from the dealership to the store and home. …”

“05/11/2023 Driving on Highway (Work Zone) Dash Flashed Hybrid System Failure - I was in the fast lane with Tractor trailer in front ,behind ,and alongside me - Gas pedal stopped working at that point nothing worked - managed to coast to the shoulder (could have been killed) Had it towed to Hyundai - They checked the computer and said nothing was wrong . that means if we were killed - Hyundai would be off the hook and they would say human error because they said no faults were stored and the codes were clear”
