“One or two years ago the plastic driver door inside door handle broke off. This week the plastic passenger front inside door handle broke. Not good. If there was a wreck and you needed to get out of the car and the door handle breaks you could be in a world of trouble! I don't think door handles should break!! I have the passenger broken door handle.”

“Since about may or june of 2013, 3 out of 4 interior door handles have broken on my 2010 Hyundai Veracruz. This is not just coincidence. The 2 front interior door handles and the passenger side rear interior door handle have broken. I am finally reporting this because the rear passenger door cannot open from the inside or the outside which is a serious safety hazard. I researched to see if this was a common issue with the car and it appears that several other owners have posted complaints regarding the same issue. …”

“Both of the front inside door handles which are plastic, have broken. The result of this is that you must roll down the windows & reach outside the vehicle to open the doors in order to get out of the car. The car was stationary when each of the handles broke. I feel that this is not just an inconvenience, but a serious safety issue. If an accident occurred or a fire broke out & for whatever reason you couldn't get your windows down you could be in serious risk of injury or death.”

“Hyundai vera cruz door handles have been breaking for three years. This prevents the driver and passenger from exiting the vehicle or escaping should there be an accident. Brought this to the dealer's attention. Rick case Hyundai advised they do not stock those parts and we had to return to repair the door handle. This made exiting the vehicle difficult; lower the driver's window, open the door from the outside, exit and close the window. The first incident was three years ago, the dealer repaired the door handle. Parts were cheap plastic. …”

“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). …”
