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. NOISE WORSE IN A RIGHT HAND TURN. NO ACCIDENT, NO INJURIES, YET.

SUNROOF EXPLODED WHILE THE CAR WAS BEING OPERATED ALONG THE HIGHWAY. THERE WAS A SUDDEN LOUD NOISE LIKE A SHOT FROM A FIREARM. THEN THE GLASS FROM THE SUNROOF STARTED TO FALL INTO THE INTERIOR OF THE CAR. THERE WAS DAMAGE TO FABRIC LINER THAT CONCEALS THE SUNROOF, AND THE REAR SPOILER. THERE MIGHT BE OTHER DAMAGE YET TO BE DISCOVERED.

CAR OFTEN FAILS TO START WHEN TURNING THE IGNITION KEY. THE LIGHTS, AND RADIO TURN ON WHEN THE IGNITION KEY IS IN, BUT WHEN I TURN THE KEY TO START I HEAR A CLICK AND THE CAR IS DEAD. IF I REPEAT THIS SEVERAL TIMES THE CAR MAY START NORMALLY. THE PROBLEM STATED SEVERAL WEEKS AGO. I HAVE GONE TO THE DEALER TWICE. THE FIRST TIME THEY CLAIMED IT WAS THE BATTERY. THEY CHANGED THE BATTERY (IT COST ME $100). THIS SOLVED THE PROBLEM FOR 2-3 DAYS (OR PERHAPS IT WAS THE WARMER WEATHER, SEE BELOW). A WEEK LATER THE PROBLEM CAME BACK AND THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. THEY REPLACED THE OXYGEN SENSOR. THIS FIXED THE ENGINE LIGHT ISSUE. THE CAR WAS OK FOR A DAY. THE PROBLEM WITH FAILING START IS BACK AND IT IS GETTING WORST. YESTERDAY IT TOOK ME 5 MINUTES IN THE MORNING AND 25 MINUTES AT NIGHT TO START THE CAR. I GOT THE FEELING THAT THE PROBLEM WORSENS IN COLD WEATHER (I TOLD THAT TO THE DEALER THE FIRST TIME I BROUGHT IT IN, BUT THEY JUST IGNORED ME). EACH TIME I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER THE WHETHER HAPPENED TO BE WARMER (ABOVE 0 CELSIUS). LAST COUPLE OF DAYS THE TEMPERATURE WAS BELOW -3 CELSIUS. YESTERDAY I PARKED THE CAR INSIDE MY GARAGE. THIS MORNING, WITH A TEMPERATURE +4 CELSIUS IN MY GARAGE, THE CAR STARTED AT THE FIRST TRY. I WAITED 10 MINUTES AND TRIED AGAIN AND THE CAR AGAIN STARTED AT THE FIRST TRY. I WILL GO TO THE DEALER AGAIN THIS WEEKEND. I TRIED DIFFERENT WAYS OF STARTING THE CAR WITH NO SUCCESS (1-CLUTCH ENGAGED AND FIRST, 2-CLUTCH ENGAGED AND NEUTRAL, 3-NEUTRAL AND NO CLUTCH, 3-DIFFERENT VARIATIONS OF RADION ON/OFF, AS WELL AS HEATER FAN ON, OR OFF. THE FOLLOWING MAY HAVE BEEN THERE ALWAYS BUT NOW I NOTICE SINCE I AM MORE AWARE OF CAR SOUNDS. THERE IS A BEEPING SOUND WHEN I ENTER THE KEY AND TURN THE DASHBOARD ON. THAT BEEPING SOUND LAST FOR ABOUT 10 SECONDS AND ENDS WITH A CLICK. THE SAME HAPPENS AFTER THE CAR ENGINE IS TURN OFF.

DEALER SAYS THEY CAN'T REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. VEHICLE HAS INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS STARTING. WHEN TURNING KEY IN IGNITION, USUALLY IN COLDER WEATHER IN THE MORNINGS, VEHICLE WILL NOT START. THERE IS JUST A 1-CLICK SOUND PER IGNITION CYCLE, BUT NO IGNITION OCCURS. ALL LIGHTS COME ON DASH, RADIO TURNS ON, ETC. REPLACED BATTERY DUE TO FAILED BATTERY TEST, BUT THIS DID NOT FIX THE STARTER PROBLEM. I BELIEVE THE STARTER ASSEMBLY IS STARTING TO FAIL BUT THE DEALER HAS BEEN VERY UNHELPFUL. I DRIVE A LOT FOR WORK, ESPECIALLY TO REMOTE AREAS, AND I'M GOING TO GET STRANDED EVENTUALLY WITHOUT ANY CELL SERVICE.

ROLLED BACKWARDS WHILE PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY TWICE AND VEHICLE WAS FOUND OUT IN THE ROAD BY MY NEIGHBORS. I WAS DRIVING IT A WEEK AGO AND MY RPM'S WERE TACKING REALLY HIGH BUT COULD NOT ACCELERATE SPEED AND I WAS IN 6TH GEAR AND IT WAS TELLING ME TO SHIFT TO 6TH THEN 5TH BACK AND FORTH. HAD IT CHECKED OUT AT DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID MY CLUTCH HAD ABNORMAL WEAR AND TEAR BUT WASN'T COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. THEY DID NOT CHECK THE PARKING BREAK TO SEE IF IT WAS WHAT CAUSED THE MALFUNCTION OF THE CLUTCH. THE CLUTCH NEVER GAVE ME ANY PROBLEMS IT WAS JUST THE CAR LAGGED WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE SPEED.

WHEELS
FROM 9/8/2015 TO 11/14/15 I HAVE HAD THREE TIRES NEEDING REPLACEMENT DUE TO THEIR SENSITIVITY OF MINIMAL ROAD CONDITIONS AND GETTING DAMAGED. EACH TIME I HIT A SMALL POT HOLE, SMALL ENOUGH TO WHERE I THOUGHT IT WAS A DIP IN THE ROAD AS I CAME UPON IT. BUT ONCE THERE I COULDN'T SAFELY MANEUVER AROUND IT TO AVOID IT. THE STYLE OF THESE TIRES ARE 18" WHEELS WHICH LEAVES NO ROOM FOR CUSHION. I HAVE NEVER HAD A PROBLEM WITH MY SPORTS CARS, SO I DIDN'T THINK TO ASK ABOUT TIRE ISSUES WHEN I PURCHASED THIS ONE. I CANNOT CONTINUE TO PURCHASE A NEW TIRE APPROXIMATELY EVERY 3 WEEKS, SO ON 11/18/15 I HAVE TO PAY ANOTHER SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF MONEY TO PURCHASE A FULL SET OF TIRES THAT WILL HOPEFULLY NOT BLOW OUT AT ANY BUMP OR TWIG IN THE ROAD. THE ROADS I TRAVEL ARE CITY ROADS AND AREN'T EVEN HAZARDOUS ROADS WITH ULTIMATELY DANGEROUS DRIVING CONDITIONS. I PURCHASED THIS CAR IN JULY 2015, AND TO HAVE TO GO THROUGH ALL THIS IN LESS THAN 6 MONTHS IS RIDICULOUS. MY PAPERWORK IS ALL THROUGH DISCOUNT TIRE IN AUBURN HILLS, MICHIGAN.

AIR BAGS
ON FRIDAY OCTOBER 23 A DRUNK DRIVER LOST CONTROL OF HIS 2011 CAMARO CROSSED THE MEDIAN ON A CITY STREET AND BARRELED INTO MY SONS 2012 HYUNDAI VELOSTER. WHILE THE CAMARO AIR BAGS INFLATED, OUR VELOSTER DID NOT. ACCORDING TO HYUNDAI DIAGRAM THERE ARE TWO SENSORS IN THE FRONT DRIVERS SIDE, NEITHER WORKED. THOUGH MY SON AND HIS PASSENGER WALKED AWAY, I AM CONCERNED THAT THESE SENSORS/AIR BAGS ARE DEFECTIVE AND SHOULD BE LOOKED INTO. OUR VEHICLE WAS PUSHED BACK SEVERAL FEET AFTER THE IMPACT AND THEY DID NOT DEPLOY. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF THESE VEHICLES PROTECTING LIVES. ONE OF THE REASONS I BOUGHT THIS CAR WAS DUE THE MANY AIRBAGS. I AM DISAPPOINTED AND CONCERNED ABOUT THIS POSSIBLE DEFECT...UPDATED 12/11/15 *BF

AS I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, THE SUNROOF TO MY CAR SUDDENLY EXPLODED FOR NO APPARENT REASON. THIS VERY EASILY COULD HAVE CAUSED ME TO WRECK INTO ANOTHER CAR, AS I PANICKED TO MOVE FROM THE FAR LEFT LANE TO THE FAR RIGHT SHOULDER. I THOUGHT AT FIRST THAT I HAD HIT SOMEONE, OR SOMEONE HAD HIT ME. HOWEVER UPON INSPECTION THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH ANY OTHER PART OF MY CAR. I CAN BEST EXPLAIN THIS BY ASKING YOU TO IMAGINE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND A HUGE ROCK FALLING ON MY SUNROOF. AFTER A PULLED OVER AND INSPECTED MY BROKEN SUNROOF THERE WAS NO ROCK OR ANYTHING ELSE TO SUGGEST SOMETHING FELL ON MY ROOF.

I WENT TO A TIRE STORE 8/24/15 TO HAVE A SCREW TAKEN OUT OF RIGHT FRONT TIRE AND HAVE PATCHED. ABOUT 30 MINUTES LATER MECHANIC CALLED ME BACK TO LOOK AT THE KUMHO TIRE AND THE STEEL WAS SEPARATING INSIDE AND AROUND THE EDGE NEAR WHERE THE WHEEL AREA WOULD BE. THEY WOULD NOT PUT THIS TIRE BACK ON THE CAR FOR LIABILITY REASONS. HE WANTED TO PUT THE SPARE TIRE ON AND WAS SURPRISED TO HEAR HYUNDAI DOESN'T PROVIDE ONE. THEY PULLED THE LEFT FRONT TIRE OFF AND FOUND THE SAME DEFECT-ONLY WORSE. I HAD TO WAIT AN HOUR FOR 2 NEW TIRES TO BE DELIVERED AND THEN INSTALLED. I PAID $405.36 FOR 2 NEW TIRES ! I UNDERSTAND THEY ARE LOW PROFILE TIRES AND MORE EXPENSIVE BUT THEY SHOULD HAVE LASTED LONGER ! I DID EVERYTHING I WAS SUPPOSED TO DO --RECORDS TO PROVE --ROTATE EVERY OTHER OIL CHANGE AND NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD HAVE TO BUY 2 NEW TIRES AT 27,179 MILES. MY CAR IS GARAGE KEPT AT HOME AND IN A PARKING GARAGE AT WORK. I HAVE 2 MORE TIRES THAT NEED TO BE CHECKED BUT I CAN'T AFFORD ANOTHER $400. I'M AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS CAR! I EXPECTED MORE FROM HYUNDAI AND KUMHO. PLEASE ADVISE.

I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK WITH PELTING ICE, JUST GOT OFF THE EXPRESSWAY, STOPPED TO GET FOOD FOR DINNER. PARKED IN A LARGE LOT, WHEN I WAS WALKING OUT WITH MY GROCERIES, HEARD A SOUND LIKE A GUN SHOT. I WAS ABOUT 8 FEET FROM MY CAR AND REALIZED MY SUNROOF JUST EXPLODED. THERE WAS VERY SHARP JAGGED PIECES OF GLASS ALL OVER MY INTERIOR. I HAD TO GET A BLANKET FROM THE TRUNK AND SIT ON IT TO GET HOME WITHOUT CUTTING MYSELF AND NEARLY HAD ANOTHER ACCIDENT BECAUSE THE PELTING ICE WAS COMING DOWN ON MY FACE. THANK GOD IT DIDN'T HAPPEN WHILE I WAS ON THE EXPRESSWAY, PROBABLY WOULD HAVE KILLED SOMEONE OR MYSELF WITH GLASS EXPLODING INTO MY FACE. CALLED THE DEALER, THEY WERE RUDE AND UNCARING UNTIL MY WIFE GOT INVOLVED. SHE HAD TO ARGUE WITH THE SERVICE ASSISTANT MANAGER, BRANDY, ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. I TOOK MY CAR IN TO KERRY FOR THE RECALL IN 2014 AND THEY GAVE IT BACK TO ME SAYING IT WAS TESTED AND WAS SAFE. BRANDY FELT HYUNDAI WAS LIABLE AND WAS VERY FLIPPANT WITH THE WIFE...BIG MISTAKE. SHE CALLED THE GENERAL MANAGER OF THE DEALERSHIP WHEN BRANDY REFUSED TO PAY FOR MY RENTAL CAR DURING THE 4 WEEKS THEY HAD MY VELOSTER IN FOR REPLACING THE ROOF. ALL IN ALL, THIS COULD HAVE EASILY BEEN A FATAL ISSUE IF GOD HADN'T BEEN WATCHING OVER ME. IT SCARES US TO THINK OF WHAT COULD HAVE BEEN, JUST 15 MINUTES EARLIER. WE FEEL HYUNDAI SHOULD BE SUED FOR THIS, CLASS ACTION. I CAN'T SAY I FEEL SAFE DRIVING THE VEHICLE NOW, BUT HAVE NO CHOICE.

AT APPROXIMATELY 75,000 MILES, THE PARKING BRAKE BEGAN TO FAIL. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE CONSIDERING THAT THE VEHICLE UTILIZES A MANUAL TRANSMISSION AND WILL ROLL IF PARKED ON ANY INCLINED SURFACE. THIS ISSUE WAS ADDRESSED UNDER THE NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 12V567000, BUT ONLY INCLUDED REPLACEMENT OF THE PARKING BRAKE LINKAGE AND CABLE (THE WORDING IN CAMPAING 12V567000 STATES THAT DEALERS "WILL REPLACE THE REAR BRAKE CALIPER ASSEMBLIES FREE OF CHARGE"). FOR THIS PARTICULAR VEHICLE, THE CAR WAS SERVICED IN 2013 TO INCLUDE PARKING BRAKE LINKAGE AND CABLE REPLACEMENT UNDER THAT CAMPAIGN. THERE WAS NO PARTICULAR PROBLEM WITH THE PARKING BRAKE AT THAT TIME. IN MAY OF 2015, THE PARKING BRAKE BEGAN TO FAIL WITH THE EXACT SYMPTOMS ISSUED IN THE INITIAL RECALL. HOWEVER, BOTH REAR BRAKE CALIPERS COMPLETELY FAILED AND THE PARKING BRAKE WOULD NO LONGER ENGAGE. HYUNDAI WOULD NOT REPLACE THE CALIPERS FREE OF CHARGE BECAUSE THE RECALL, ACCORDING TO THEM, DID NOT INCLUDE THE BRAKE CALIPERS IN THEIR ENTIRETY. I BELIEVE THIS IS A FAILURE BY HYUNDAI TO PROPERLY ADDRESS THE REASON FOR THE PARKING BRAKE FAILURE. EACH CALIPER COSTS SOMEWHERE BETWEEN $250-$300, SO CONSUMERS WILL CURRENTLY FIND THEMSELVES PAYING APPROXIMATELY $800 IN PARTS AND LABOR TO FIX THE PROBLEM. BECAUSE I WAS DISSATISFIED WITH HYUNDAI AND THEIR FAILURE TO REPLACE PARTS THAT ARE LINKED TO A KNOWN RECALL/SAFETY ISSUE, I HAD MY CAR TOWED FROM THE DEALERSHIP (THE BRAKE CALIPERS LOCKED UP AFTER MECHANICS AT THE DEALERSHIP INSPECTED THEM AND THE CAR WAS NO LONGER DRIVEABLE) TO A PRIVATE MECHANIC TO FIX THE PROBLEM.

THE DATE OF 4/20/15 IS THE LATEST TIME(OR BY THE WAY I HAVE TO WAIT TILL 5/22/15 TO BRING IT IN.... FIRST DAY THEY HAD ROOM FOR ME......THIS IS GOING TO BE THE 4TH TIME THEY HAVE REPLACE(OVER THE PAST 2 YEARS) THE (97250-2V010-BLH CONTROL ASSY-HEAT) BECAUSE THE FAN DIAL DON'T WORK ON 3 OR 4 POSITIONS. WHEN IT GETS REAL BAD IT DON'T WORK AT ALL. THE DEALER IS GIVING ME A HARD TIME BECAUSE THEY HAVE TO REPLACE AGAIN..... THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM ... AND IT NEEDS TO BE FIXED.... AND WHEN THE CUSTOMER BRINGS IT IN WITH THIS PROBLEM THEY SHOULD JUST SAY THEY ARE SORRY AND FIX IT. *TR

SEAT BELTS
UNDER NORMAL DRIVING CONDITIONS, AS I WAS SHIFTING INTO SECOND GEAR, THE SEATBELT MOUNTING ASSEMBLY DISLODGED FROM THE WALL OF THE VEHICLE. ONCE DISLOGED, THE WEIGHT OF THE FALLING ASSEMBLY CAUSED THE BELT TO TWIST AND BECOME STUCK IN THE SLOT WHERE THE BELT RETRACTS INTO THE WALL OF THE CAR, LEAVING THE BELT SOMEWHAT LOOSE AND NON FUNCTIONAL. THIS IS NOW THE SECOND SAFETY COMPLAINT I HAVE FILED ON THE SAME CAR. *TR

SUSPENSION
THE VEHICLE DANGEROUSLY FISHTAILS WHEN HITTING A BUMP, FROM THE SIZE OF A SMALL POTHOLE TO LARGER CRACKS IN THE ROAD. SOMETIMES THE FISHTAIL IS SO ABRUPT IT FEELS AS THOUGH THE CAR IS GOING INTO THE OTHER LANE, THOUGH IT'S NOT THAT DRAMATIC, IT DOES MOVE YOUR VEHICLE TRAVEL TO ONE SIDE OR THE OTHER, CHANGING FROM YOUR ORIGINAL POSITION IN THE LANE. THE REAR SUSPENSION NEEDS TO BE FIXED IN SOME WAY SO THAT THE VEHICLE TRAVEL IN THE REAR IS NOT SO ABRUPT. I FEEL AS THOUGH THIS COULD DEFINITELY CAUSE YOU TO LOSE CONTROL AND WRECK THE VEHICLE. *TR
