I have noticed that on various occasions I pressed on the the brake and the car seemed to accelerate until I slammed hard on the brake. Today 12/4/2021 I almost got into an accident as a result.
I had my car repaired due to an open recall in April. I got in my car yesterday and while driving the car shut off and there seemed to be a liquid leaking from under the car. I had the car towed to Key Hyundai of Milford where the recall work in addition to other work was done. I am really worried because I could have gotten hurt if other cars where nearby. Also the dealership is saying it may take up to 2 weeks for them to inspect my vehicle. I need suggestions as to my best course of action.
Recall order 181 received last year.been checking but all I get is " remedy not available ' you claimed this is a dangerous defeat. What does this mean, "remedy not available ''. a year and keep thinking, is this defeat going to happen while I, M dring on the I-4 highway.?
My car had a recall that was going on for about a year with my car stalling and smelling of burning oil. Early this year a letter was mailed stating recall in being investigated, (campaign 181) the end of September I got the official letter about the recall and what I needed to do. It took a 1 weeks to get the car in. My car stalled twice during that time. Days before my car got fixed my car stalled twice, and I start hearing a loud noise in which I found out after the recall was fixed that my valve covers needed replaced. The technician said that it could not be fixed because engine was bad. I had a corporate representative who did nothing, and I had to call 500 times to have it escalated to a corporate manager. After I got a corporate manager is when grayson hyndaui decided to give me an estimate. My car has been parked at home since 9/24/2019 and I have paid to rent a car since that day an till this day. I want this resolved asap.

My 2011 Hyundai Tucson stalled while driving on a busy city road. I was going straight with 40 miles/hour when my vehicle suddenly lost power for unnown reason, and started slowing down, then completely stopped. The engine stopped, gas pedal was not responding. The check engine, oil pressure, and battery light came on at the same time when car stalled. Battery is a couple of months old, everything seem to operate normally except the vehicle does not start. Fortunately I was able to pull over to a turning lain to avoid any accident and called my insurance company to have the vehicle towed to safety. I have received a recall letter from Hyundai a few months ago, and immediately called the nearest Hyundai dealer to have the vehicle checked. The representative said they do not have the parts yet and they will contact me as soon as the parts are available. I have yet to receive a call and now my vehicle stalled. It is inoperable.

Hyundai motor America is conducting a safety recall to inspect, and if necessary, replace the engine assembly in certain model year 2010 through 2013 Hyundai Tucson vehicles equipped with 2.4 liter theta-II engines produced from March 3, 2010 to December 31, 2012 by Hyundai motor company at the ulsan plant in the republic of Korea. Safety risk the subject vehicles may have an engine oil leak from the seal between the oil pan and engine block which, if left unrepaired and operated over time could eventually lead to engine damage. A damaged engine could lead to high speed stall and in limited cases, a vehicle fire. My air conditioner has stopped working and two of my doors locking mechanisms are no longer working.
Tucson recall: The car seizes while in motion, and revs in motion without the driver pushing the accelerator/gas pedal - meaning the driver either is coasting or has a steady pressure on the gas pedal, and the seizing and reving of the car is more than and not equal to the pressure being applied to the pedal - so the car is "racing" even though the driver is not increasing pressure on the gas pedal. The car also stalls when first started, unless the driver revs the engine using the gas pedal in park. This has been occurring over the last year - despite the car being serviced every 3,000 miles - service provider cannot provide diagnosis or solution.
Takata recall : I have to drive 47 miles on a fast paced highway in southern Florida in order to get to my job, daily. Multiple times a week I experience a stall while traveling at high speeds on the highway. I took my car to a local Hyundai dealership recently and they did not even know about the upcoming recall. For months, I have been having to drive my car and feel unsafe. I have to go to work, and I do not have another vehicle option. I feel unsafe and am incredibly upset that Hyundai has not found a resolution yet. If this problem is not fixed soon I will be forced to get another vehicle, regardless of my financial situation. My next vehicle will not be a Hyundai, solely because of the amount of time this recall resolution is taking.
My air conditioner compressor had blown out and the dealer is saying it will cost $1200. I live in a state that has 100 degree weather. There has to be some accommodation for this. If I owed my Chevy they have a special policy for their customers. I will never buy another Hyundai their cars are crappy. I have a case number with Consumer Affairs 11380579. When the representative did cal we played phone tag for her to tell me I was basically out of luck
Occurs intermittently, but on a more frequent basis now, the shifter becomes blocked and the car can't be put in park. Both stability control and down hill lights come on during that time. Same has occurred while trying to get car out of park and in gear. This has occurred while car is stationary. It became a safety issue while parked on a down slope hill. Had to use E-brake and eventually find a flat road to park and use E-brake while trying to find a solution to securing the vehicle so it would not roll away.
