“Hyundai recall. I am a 65 years old, I purchased this car on nov 2018 and as I was driving to work on the highway, the car caught on fire, the flames came through the floor panel and through the vents. My entire area where the gas & brake pedal are burned up, the radio area and console area is charred beyond recognition. By the time the fire department arrived, the entire car was in flames.”
NHTSA complaint #11208255, filed 2019-05, 70,000 miles“When taking corners in the city I can't accelerate the car just revs for about 15-30 seconds and won't move. I have to try to pull over to get off the road. Also when accelerating from a stop the RPM's like to shoot up but the car won't take no gas. I have almost been hit twice because of this problem. Hyundai just says learn how to drive it. Learn what how to stall?”
NHTSA complaint #11054587, filed 2017-12, 15,000 miles“While driving my car it came to a sudden stop at no time did any service engine light or oil light appeared upon having my car towed home I felt there was no oil in the engine. The oil was just changed july 8th of 2017. My car stopped running august 27th a 2017. I don't understand why I never got a service engine soon or don't understand why the oil light did not appear.”

And they are still not to this day. There has to be a problem with the sensors. I was driving the car at that time and had to have it towed home.”
NHTSA complaint #11024174, filed 2017-09, 36,000 miles“There was a recall on my car which followed under the campaign 958 which was unknown to me until my car engine seized while driving on I-5 highway. Due to the fact I did not know of the recall when this incident happened I had to get it towed to the closest auto shop. They were unsure of what caused the seize and tried to replace the starter (cost around $340). The auto shop got it to turn on but then heard a loud knocking in the engine and suggested if I called Hyundai dealership to see if there is a recall because they would have to replace the engine. …”
