Hyundai Motor America (Hyundai) is recalling certain 2019-2022 Veloster N, 2019-2023 Genesis G70, 2022-2023 Elantra N, and Kona N vehicles. The fuel pump may fail, which can result in a loss of drive power.
Hyundai Motor Company (Hyundai) is recalling certain 2021-2022 Santa Fe, Sonata, Veloster N, 2022 Santa Cruz, Elantra N, and Kona N vehicles. The vehicle's "fail-safe" limited-mobility drive mode may be impaired, when prompted by a transmission oil pump malfunction, which can result in a complete loss of drive power.
While making a low speed turn (<10mph) the LKA icon (black panel) and failure alert (center screen) appeared on the meter, then immediately after the power steering icon (black panel) and failure alert (center screen) appeared on the meter. The electroninc power steering completely died and I nearly ran into an oncoming car and then I actually ran off the road slightly into the grass after correcting in the other direction. I tried a quick ignition cycle on the side of the road and the issue persisted so I pulled into a parking lot and did another ignition cycle but I waited a minute or so before restarting the car. This time the when I turned the car on warning and failure went away so I waited a few more minutes then drove home; then in my apartment parking garage at low speed (<10mph again) right as I was pulling into a parking spot the same pattern occured again (LKA then EPS) and I almost hit a concrete wall due to the loss of power steering assist. I have now parked the car and plan to get it towed to a dealership because I believe this put myself and others at risk; I had to use my entire upper body to keep control of the vehicle and if this happened to me then this could very well happen to someone who isn't as able bodied as I am.

On August 15, 2026, while driving my 2022 Hyundai Veloster N, the electric power steering assist intermittently became noticeably heavier than normal. The vehicle’s steering remained mechanically controllable, but the increased steering effort was noticeable and raised a safety concern because the loss or reduction of steering assist occurred while the vehicle was being driven. I scanned the vehicle and found diagnostic trouble code C129002 in the EPS/MDPS system, described as a torque sensor signal fault. I also found DTC C168886 in the LKAS system. Both codes were reported as open at approximately 80,252 miles. After turning the vehicle off and restarting it, normal steering assist returned. The problem has since been intermittent, with the steering currently feeling normal, but the diagnostic codes were previously active and the vehicle experienced an actual change in steering effort while driving. This is not the first intermittent issue I have experienced with the vehicle. A similar steering-assist problem occurred a couple of months earlier. The vehicle has also experienced intermittent power loss on other occasions. I previously brought the vehicle to a Hyundai dealer for the intermittent power-loss concern, but the dealer was unable to reproduce or confirm the problem at that time. I do not know whether the intermittent power-loss issue is related to the steering-assist problem. The current steering problem has not yet been confirmed or repaired by a dealer or independent repair facility. I am concerned that an intermittent loss or reduction of electric power steering assist could recur unexpectedly while driving and increase the risk of losing adequate steering control, particularly at higher speeds or during an emergency maneuver.

steering rack failed once already and was replaced in entirety thru dealership now it is making creaking sound whenever turning wheel left or right at slow speeds engine issues two years into ownership- white smoke coming from exhaust and required two new spark plugs the blind spot warning has never worked and there is heavy documentation online from other owners stating it simply does not work (and has never worked)

There is an intermittent issue that begins with the lane departure warning light followed by the power steering light flashing red. It leads to a complete and sudden loss of power steering. This has happened at low speeds as well as highway speeds with no discernable pattern for replicating the issue.

Power steering failure while at speed on the highway. This caused safety systems to be disabled and the car was very hard to control. If this happened while cornering, a deadly crash could happen. the problem has not been confirmed or reproduced. it has not been inspected. No issues prior to the failure. only appeared after SP failed
