2012 Hyundai Veloster Brakes Problems

“This issue happened two day in a row.. I start my car up to go to work, put it in gear and cant move because the rear brakes are stuck, my car is stuck in my driveway causing me to be late for work, I called my local Hyundai dealer and my car does not qualify for the recall that was issued for 4,490 Veloster that year.. If my car doesnt qualify because of some silly VIN number but has the recall issues.. Shouldnt it be included in the recall?”

“It started with my stability control light coming on and staying on. Then I noticed when at a stop it felt like I was pressing the brakes at the same time I was stepping on the accelerator. Then when it was dark my neighbor noticed my brake lights were on. I researched these three problems that appeared within the same day, and found that the brake light switch is causing all three issues. Also, goings recalls for other models of Hyundai for this part but apparently not mine.”

“Rolled backwards while parked in my driveway twice and vehicle was found out in the road by my neighbors.

They did not check the parking break to see if it was what caused the malfunction of the clutch. …”

“Vehicle downshifts to fifth gear when passing but does not return to sixth gear upon releasing accelerator. Vehicle continues at same rate of speed when releasing accelerator as if it were on cruise control. While passing an 18 wheeler on hwy 169 north, I noticed that there was another 18 wheeler approximately 100 feet in front of the one I was passing. With an oncoming vehicle I could not pass both trucks, so I passed the first one and pulled in behind the other one. …”

“The driver's side wheel bearing began making a roaring sound about 10,000 miles ago. The car currently has just over 80,000 miles it. I went to go replace my wheel bearing and found the axle nut had backed off on it's own at least a quarter of a turn. The nut, you can see where it was supposed to have been locked into place, and that area is moved at least a quarter of a turn from where it is supposed to be locked in so it does not spin loose. I just noticed this to determine the cause of wheel bearing failure on 5/1/16. Vehicle noise while in motion on all types of roads. …”
