2011 Hyundai Veracruz Electrical system Problems

“Hyundai announced the following recall in november 2020. To date they have done nothing to remedy the problem. My vehicle had this problem and failed while driving on the freeway in 2016. I repaired the problem back then at my expense but my vehicle should be assessed by Hyundai and cleared or additional repairs made. I am waiting over 6 months for a remedy on a recall that was originally announced in 2014 and reissued in 2020 because of Hyundai's failure to adequately address the problem. …”

“Since about 800 miles the TPMS light has been coming on and stays lit for a while and then shuts off,. On a recent trip, the light came on and off more than 10 times. This is a safety issue since we do not know if the tire pressure is low or not. The dealer and Hyundai says they cannot repair it or do anything unless the light is on when we get to their shop. This has not happened.”

“We purchased this car new. It has been to the dealer 5 times or more for the repair of an engine oil leak that saturates the alternator resulting in its failure. They have resealed the engine oil pan the first time. Second, third, forth, and fifth time they replaced the front engine valve cover gasket.

“While I started to cross a busy hwy my Veracruz did not respond and would not go faster than 20 MPH. All my dashbord lights came on and off several times then the car would not go more than 5 MPH. I was able to make it to the Hyundai dealership where the car would not go on park even after trying the overide swithch. Eventually the car started shaking and it shut off. Once they were able to diagnose the problem they had to replace the alternator and a new battery (battery was a year old but had to be replaced due to the alternator malfuction killed the battery). All this cost about600.00. …”

“While driving I noticed the battery light going on. I parked it for the night and began to drive it the next day. After driving for a few minutes, I noticed the battery light going on again. The radio began to turn off and on, and many different lights on the dash began to flash. I decided to return home to prevent getting stranded. As I turned around, I noticed that I began to lose power in the vehicle although I was trying to accelerate. I made it home and parked the car. I tried to start it later and the battery was now dead even thought the battery is less than a year old. …”
