Example complaints

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

“The brakes failed to properly stop my 2010 Hyundai Veracruz while driving on a primary arterial road. There was no indication of any brake failure or warning light prior to this braking failure. Brakes were working fine in stop and go traffic just prior to the failure. The brakes were applied for stopped traffic and the vehicle failed to stop. This resulted in a front to rear end collision at an approximate speed between 5 and 10 MPH. There were no skid marks and during braking the brake pedal did not indicate that the ABS was active (no pulsating of the pedal). …”

“When press the brakes the rear brake lights do not come on. The vehicle rear lights are on but the brakes lights do not illuminate when the brake pedal is pushed when having to stop or slow down. Only found out about the lights because individual behind my Veracruz pulled from around me to the driver side of my car and told me I had no brake lights just tail lights and he almost rear-rear ended me at the stoplight.”

“I received a notice of a recall (23V-651) in September of last year, and Hyundai has not yet fixed the issue. This is the second possibly life-threatening recall on this car since I have owned it, and each time it has taken over six months for a remedy. In addition to risking my life and those of my passengers on a daily basis, because I have been instructed to park outside I have to park the car on the street and risk having it damaged or stolen. Is there any time limit to how long a car manufacturer can neglect fixing a problem like this? 7 months and counting seems excessive.”
