This car was recalled for a bad engine and because their computer would not throw off a code they refused to replace the bad engine. It has 60000 miles on it and has been well maintained. The rocker arms have gone bad and there are countless others who have the same issue that Hyundai refuses to address because now computer code was thrown off. They hide behind this to avoid replacing their bad engines.

The contact owns a 2019 Hyundai Veloster. The contact stated that while driving 76 MPH, the vehicle went into LIMP Mode and decelerated to 30 MPH. The check engine warning light was illuminated. Additionally, the vehicle experienced intermittent, unintended acceleration. The contact shifted the transmission to neutral(N), but the vehicle failed to stop. The contact then pressed the shift lock release button, and the vehicle was able to stop. The steering wheel also inadvertently turned left or right while driving, and the Lane Keep Assist System was not activated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was diagnosed that fuel and oil were leaking into the exhaust pipe, allowing smoke into the cabin. The dealer replaced the alternator, battery, and spark plugs, but the failure persisted. The dealer notified the manufacturer about the failure. The vehicle was then taken to Tarr Hyundai (5524 W Andrew Johnson Hwy, Morristown, TN 37814); however, the dealer was initially unable to duplicate the failure. When Tarr Hyundai was able to duplicate the failure, the failure information was forwarded to the manufacturer. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and several cases were opened. The final case was resolved through arbitration, and the manufacturer was ordered to buy back the vehicle; however, the contact declined the buyback offer. The failure mileage was approximately 141.
When you put the car in DRIVE it will go in REVERSE. Happened several times and on the last time caused us to back into a pole and mess up the back bumper. We were trying to go forward but went in reverse. We have video proof but I can't load the video in this document.
While driving the vehicle has stalled/engine shuts off at different speeds and also while the vehicle's steering wheel is turned to move it into a different direction (for example making a right turn at a perpendicular street/road). There is a concern for the operator's safety and others operating around a stalling vehicle especially at higher velocity/speeds and when traffic is heavy. The dealership has recommended an engine replacement, not sure if the dealer has been able to reproduce the problem. Currently, the vehicle has only been inspected by a dealership. The flashing engine light first appeared on 06/07/2024, this would be the second time the vehicle stalled (engine shut off) on the same day.
Passenger side door will not latch or lock. Door remains opened while driving.
2019 Hyundai Veloster. Since November 2022, my vehicle has encountered multiple problems, necessitating extensive periods in repair shops, and I believe these issues have not been addressed satisfactorily. Below is a timeline of the events for your reference: - **December 2022**: Engine replacement was conducted, resulting in the vehicle being in the shop for 7.5 weeks. - **January & February 2023**: The car underwent repairs for damage due to a faulty door and leaking moisture. - **February 2023**: The vehicle was broken into, leading to another round of repairs in April 2023. - **October 2023**: The check engine light activated. Upon taking the vehicle to your dealership, I was informed of a two-month wait for diagnosis and an even further delay for the repair. - **December 2023**: I was advised to leave the car at the dealership for a diagnosis to be conducted several weeks later, with no offer of a courtesy vehicle. - **January 2024**: The dealership diagnosed a low oil code and instructed me to return to the previous service provider to reset it, despite the oil level being adequate. I believe that the engine was not accompanied by proper installation and synchronization of related components, it could indeed lead to a P0017 code. This code indicates a misalignment between the crankshaft and camshaft positions, which can be caused by issues such as a faulty timing chain or belt, incorrect installation of these components, or a problem with the camshaft or crankshaft sensors⁴. The appearance of a P0017 code after an engine replacement can vary in time depending on the specific circumstances of the installation. If the timing components such as the chain or belt, sensors, and related parts are not properly installed or calibrated, the code could show up immediately after the engine is started. In other cases, it might take some time for the code to appear, as the engine's computer tries to adjust the timing and eventually determines it cannot correct.
The contact owns a 2019 Hyundai Veloster. The contact stated while driving at approximately 65 MPH, there was an abnormal sound coming from the engine. The contact stated that it sounded as if the engine was revving without the accelerator pedal being depressed. The contact stated that the RPM revved between 5,000-7,000 RPMs but the vehicle was losing motive power. The contact depressed the accelerator pedal; however, the vehicle was still losing motive power. The contact was able to stop the vehicle. The contact turned off and restarted the vehicle several times however, the vehicle failed to respond while shifting into drive(D). The contact stated the check engine warning light was illuminated. The contact had the vehicle towed to a local dealer. The dealer diagnosed the vehicle and advised the contact that clutch packs 1 and 2 showed DTC codes: P090173 and P090B73. The contact was informed that the clutch packs 1 and 2 along with the clutch actuator and the front brake pads, rotors, and fluid needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was informed of the failure. The failure mileage was 61,307.
While driving the vehicle the engine stalled in the middle of a turn. We were able to safely move the vehicle to the side of the road immediately out of harms way. The engine would not restart despite adding oil. Prior to the engine stalling there was a light knocking noise but very faint. The check engine or oil lights did not illuminate until after the stall. We had the vehicle towed to our family member's auto shop to research the problem with the engine and he also was not able to get the vehicle to restart. It was confirmed that the piston oil ring had failed and safety recall report 21V-301 was found addressing the same issue with other vehicles same year but not specific to our VIN. We had the vehicle towed to Hyundai dealership to validate the issue and they stated that it was a camshaft dowel and that HyundaiUSA did not feel it fell under the recall notice, we had agreed to a fix to replace the camshaft dowel that was broken upon the initial diagnosis. Upon further review they found that further damage had been done to the engine and now the engine would need to be replaced. HyundaiUSA again said that it didn't fall under the safety recall based on the VIN and would not fully cover the replacement of the engine. Their diagnosis of the damage is identical to what is listed in the Safety recall notice 21V-301. This damage could have caused a much larger issue if the vehicle was being driven on a highway or other high traffic area.
2.0 engine loss of power and stalls. Engine makes knocking noises and timing chain slipping. First reported to dealership on August 21 and was told they could not be able to look at the car for three months. Vehicle was kept out of service for four weeks. Reported to dealership again on 9/14/2023 and visited the dealership on 9/16 after no response. Also notified the dealership of recall involving this year model engine but received no recall notice from Hyundai. All symptoms of this recall were experienced with this vehicle.
My car battery died and I changed the battery. I noticed that the engine lights were on, so I made an appointment to get it checked as well as complete a state inspection. My car fob started acting up and they (Halls Jeep) told me to take it to the Hyundai Service Center because they have the equipment to do so. I took it to the Priority Hyundai and told them of the issue as well as reminded them that there was a recall issue relating to the software in the vehicle. After waiting 4 hours of back and forth, trying to find out what was going on with the car, I saw parked to the side. I asked about it and then another mechanic came and told me that they locked the car and were now unable to unlock it. I told them that there should be some emergency entrance, as all vehicle with a fob has a safety feature to unlock manually. After another while, the service manager decided that the locking issue might be due to the car not being updated (the recall issue) and gave me a loaner car. The service manager also said he did not know how to rectify it and that he would need to contact a different department in Hyundai. I received a call from the manager now saying that it is a mechanical issue and that they are not responsible for anything that happened to my car when they are fixing another issue. I now have a car that I can't lock/unlock and I am not sure what else is wrong due to the software issues. Th software recall does not address all the electrical issues and the dealerships don't know all the issues with the car.
