AIR BAGS, SEAT BELTS
OUR AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON ALL THE TIME. BACK IN OCT 2014, CAR HAD 119K MILES, WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALER BECAUSE THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE SEAT BELT TENSIONER. THEY SAID THAT THE CAR WAS SALVAGE TITLE SO NOTHING COULD BE DONE (SALVAGE TITLE DUE TO HAIL DAMAGE). THEY SAID THE RECALL HAD ALREADY BEEN PERFORMED. THEY CHARGED US FOR THE DIAGNOSTIC AND RECOMMENDED WE REPLACE THE RIGHT (PASSENGER) SEAT BELT RETRACTOR ASSEMBLY BUT WE DID NOT DO THIS. ALSO, THERE ARE 2 CRACKS IN THE PASSENGER SIDE DASHBOARD THAT WERE THERE WHEN WE BOUGHT THE CAR. MY HUSBAND THOUGHT IT WAS PROBABLY SUN DAMAGE, BUT I HAVE SINCE SEEN IN THE NHTSA COMMENTS THAT THIS IS AN ISSUE DUE TO AIRBAG BELOW.

THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION AT TIME OF THE OCCURRENCE.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
OIL LEAKS FROM THE FRONT CYLINDER BANK STRAIGHT INTO THE ALTERNATOR CAUSING IT TO FAIL PREMATURELY. THE NHTSA ISSUED A RECALL FOR THIS EXACT SAME ISSUE FOR THE 2006-2012 HYUNDAI VERACRUZ (NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V415000). YOU CONCLUDED IN THE CONSEQUENCE PARAGRAPH "AN UNEXPECTED FAILURE OF MOTIVE POWER WHILE DRIVING INCREASES THE RISK OF A CRASH." I'M DEEPLY CONCERNED OF THIS HAPPENING WITH MY HYUNDAI AZERA AS IT CURRENTLY HAS OIL LEAKING INTO THE ALTERNATOR. MY AZERA HAS 80K ORIGINAL MILES. THE AZERA USES THE EXACT SAME ENGINE, FRONT CYLINDER BANK GASKET, AND ALTERNATOR AS THE VERACRUZ AND SUBSEQUENTLY SUFFERS FROM THE SAME PROBLEM THAT LED TO THE RECALL ISSUED FOR THE HYUNDAI VERACRUZ. PLEASE REVIEW AND COMPARE MY CLAIM AGAINST THE EXISTING RECALL FOR THE HYUNDAI VERACRUZ AS OUTLINED ABOVE. I FEEL IT'S WORTH NOTING I ALSO CURRENTLY OWN A RECALL EFFECTED VERACRUZ AND HAVE BOTH VEHICLES FOR SIDE BY SIDE COMPARISON. I THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND EFFORTS EXPLORING THIS ISSUE ON MY BEHALF AND ALL OTHER HYUNDAI AZERA OWNERS. LET ME KNOW IF I CAN BE OF FURTHER ASSISTANCE IN THIS MATTER.

AFTER THE VEHICLE IS STARTED, THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATES. ISSUE SEEMS TO BE RELATED TO A RECALL FOR CAMPAIGN 094 WHICH WAS FIXED IN DEC 2014. MY REGULAR CAR SERVICE PROVIDER HAS DIAGNOSED AND CONFIRMED IT TO THE SAME ISSUE AND SAYS THE RECALL IS NOT PROPERLY FIXED BUT THE HYUNDAI DEALER DOES NOT AGREE. HOW CAN ONE CONFIRM IF RECALL WAS PROPERLY FIXED OR NOT. AIR BAG AND SEAT BELT INDICATOR CAME ON AFTER FEW MONTHS OF FIXING THE RECALL. I INITIALLY THOUGHT IT TO BE SOME COMPUTER CODES ISSUE AND GOT THE CODES CLEARED BUT IT CAME BACK AFTER A MONTH AGAIN. CAMPAIGN 094 STATES "THE WIRING HARNESS FOR THE RIGHT FRONT SEAT BELT TENSION SENSOR MAY BECOME DAMAGED AFTER REPEATED USE OF THE RIGHT FRONT SEAT BELT. IF THE WIRING IS DAMAGED, THE PASSENGER FRONT AIRBAG WILL NOT DEPLOY IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH. DEALERS WILL REPAIR THE VEHICLES FREE OF CHARGE. THE RECALL BEGAN FEBRUARY 22, 2010. THE HYUNDAI RECALL NUMBER IS 094." I DON'T REMEBER THE EXACT DATE OF WHEN THIS HAPPENED SO I AM PUTTING A DUMMY DATE OF 01/01/2016

VISIBILITY/WIPER
I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE ABOUT 11 A.M. ON SUNDAY, JUNE 19 (OVERCAST, SOME RAIN ON AND OFF, STOP AND GO TRAFFIC, SO I WAS PROBABLY GOING ABOUT 30 OR 35 MPH) WHEN I HEARD A LOUD POP, LIKE SOMEONE POPPING A PAPER LUNCH BAG. DIDN'T KNOW WHAT IT WAS SO A COUPLE MINS LATER I HEARD WIND. ALL WINDOWS WERE UP, SO I OPENED THE SHADE COVERING THE PANORAMIC MOON ROOF, AND THAT'S WHEN I SAW THE HUGE HOLE IN THE FRONT PIECE OF GLASS. THIS IS THE ONE THAT MOVES WHEN YOU OPEN IT. THERE WAS NOTHING INSIDE (LIKE A ROCK OR LUG NUT ETC) TO INDICATE SOMETHING HIT IT. THERE WAS NO PREVIOUS DAMAGE TO THE ROOF. I HAD TO PAY A $500 DEDUCTIBLE TO GET IT FIXED, SO IF THIS IS A GLASS DEFECT THEN I SHOULD GET MY MONEY BACK.

STEERING
STEERING WHEEL IS SO TIGHT IT BOUNCES BACK INTO POSITION ALSO THE CAR DRIFTS ON THE ROAD AND THE STEERING WHEN YOU TURN THE WHEEL ITS LIKE IT SLOTTED SO IF YOU JUST MOVE IT A FRACTION IT WILL FALL INTO A SLOT AND THEN YOU GOING OFF THE ROAD I FEEL THE DRIVE BY WIRE IS SO TIGHT THAT IT WILL SNAP AND KILL SOMEBODY OVER TIME AND THE DRIFTING IT WILL DRIFT FAST SO IF YOUR NOT 100 PERCENT PAYING ATTENTION YOUR DEAD.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ENGINE, STEERING
WHILE DRIVING ON US 95 AT NIGHT MY ENGINE STOPPED RUNING. I WAS TRAVING AT 65 MPH.AT THE TIME. THE CAR WAS TOWED AND LATER INSPECTED. THE INSPECTION REVEALED THAT ALTERNATOR HAD FAILED BECAUSE OIL HAD LEAKED FROM THE VALVE COVER GASKETS DIRECTLY ONTO THE ALTERNATOR WHICH CAUSED IT TO FAIL. THIS FAILURE ALSO AFFECTED THE POWER STEERING & MY LIGHTS AS WELL . I WAS FORTUNATE THAT MY CAR WAS NOT STRUCK AS THE TRAFFIC WAS HEAVY. .
