general problems of the 2012 Hyundai Accent

Unknown. I think the abs module light appeared instantly on the dashboard. It's the anti-lock brakes that aren't working. I immediately contacted my Hyundai dealership when I saw a brake light come up on my dashboard when I went to brake but I had none and the brakes went all the way to the floor and I almost went over a cliff and died or badly hurt others or myself in a car accident. I'm willing to try and get it fixed at other independent service centers in Plymouth massachusetts. The event had happened a week before but I didn't report this incident to the police, insurance representatives/others or any other manufacturer because there wasn't officially any automobile accidents. Finally, my Hyundai Accent 2012 was donated to me by "good news garage" over 2. 5-3 yrs ago through a work-to-program/donation under the m. R. C. Or massachusetts rehabilitation center in Plymouth massachusetts which is permanently closed and is now called mass options and that's the only thing I know about this situation with no brakes. Please help me. I need to know my next steps. Thank you! owner and driver julie n. Arnold.

On the [xxx], my 2012 Hyundai Accent caught fire in the engine compartment and engulfed in flames. Right before the fire started, smoke came out of the air vents into the car, causing me to become stifled and choke for several minutes. Smoke was also coming out of the hood. At that point, I lifted the hood and there were flames coming out of the engine. During the past six months prior to the fire, I developed a chronic cough and now believe it might have been attributed to fumes that I have been inhaling through the air vents from my car's engine. My [xxx] mother and [xxx] son have suffered headaches, coughing, sore throat and congestion when riding in my car with the air conditioner turned on. The remains of the vehicle were inspected by the rockdale county fire department after they extinguished the fire. What remains of the car is available for inspection in rockdale county GA at a tow yard designated by the rockdale county emergency rescue team members who assisted me. It was too damaged to tow to my home. There were no warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the engine catching fire on [xxx]. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).

There was an abnormal sound coming from the infotainment system and the vehicle was shuddering. The contact stated that the front driver's side and the rear passenger's side windows were stuck and had to be manually raised. The check engine, air bag, and low tire pressure warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a dealer however, the vehicle was not diagnosed. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.

The instrument panel stopped working preventing the ability to determine speed or gas guage. Lights on the instrument panel dis engage when headlights are turned on.

I received this notice of a safety recall for my 2012 Hyundai Accent in late October. Hyundai stated that a remedy would be available in late November. Now it's late December, and I've heard nothing from Hyundai. This safety recall sounds urgent and incredibly dangerous; I don't feel safe driving or parking my vehicle anywhere because according to them, it can catch fire at any moment. Despite this, Hyundai hasn't provided any more solutions other than parking my car outside, which doesn't solve the issue with driving it and frankly isn't any more safe. Hyundai isn't responding quickly enough at all for how urgent this issue is, even though several vehicle fires and thermal incidents have already occurred due to this very issue. It's ridiculous that they state the vehicle is safe to drive, yet they admit that the vehicle can catch fire while it's being driven. At this point, the government needs to step in and hold Hyundai accountable, for the sake of public safety. They need to be made to provide a solution that actually solves the problem, even if it isn't cheap to do so.

This car has a recall which put my child and others at risk. It also has a recall for excessive corrosion, which has made the suspension unrepairable. It only has 124k miles. I would like Hyundai to take the car from me and give me the remaining value so I can reimburse my child, who had to buy a car that was safe to drive.

Hyundai's current handling of recall 251 is inadequate, posing significant danger to drivers and passengers. Hyundai's remedy for recall 251 replaces abs fuse with a lower amperage fuse. While this may prevent fires caused by brake fluid leaks, it disables the abs, introducing severe safety hazards: •without abs, the risk of wheel lockup during heavy braking increases, leading to skidding and loss of control. •abs reduces stopping distances, especially on slippery surfaces. Disabling it may result in longer stopping distances, raising collision risks. •drivers accustomed to abs may not be prepared for how the vehicle behaves without it, potentially leading to improper braking. Federal regulations mandate that all u. S. Cars and minivans manufactured in 2012 or later must have four-wheel abs. By disabling the abs, Hyundai circumvents this requirement, compromising safety. Despite attempts to communicate these safety issues, Hyundai has shown inadequate response. This suggests a disregard for customer safety and an effort to avoid liability and the cost of providing loaner vehicles or temporary replacements. Hyundai has not offered alternative transportation to affected drivers. Given these safety risks and Hyundai's inadequate response, we urgently request NHTSA 1. Ensure recall 251 remedy does not compromise safety by disabling the abs. 2. Hold Hyundai accountable for maintaining four-wheel abs in affected vehicles. 3. Require Hyundai to develop a safer recall remedy that: ofixes the root cause: properly addresses the brake fluid leak to eliminate the fire risk without compromising the abs. Omaintains abs functionality: ensures the abs system remains fully operational. Oprovides safety support: advises vehicle owners not to drive affected vehicles until the new remedy is implemented and provides loaner vehicles or temporary replacements. We urge the NHTSA to take immediate & decisive action to compel Hyundai to develop a safer, more effective solution.

On Saturday March 23, 2019 I was driving my 2012 Hyundai Accent on the highway. I was traveling in the left hand lane, on cruise control, going about 73 mph. A semi-truck in the right hand land a few hundred yards in front of me moved over into my lane due to a construction zone ahead, so I attempted to turn off my cruise control to slow down for the merging semi-truck. I applied the brakes but my car did not turn off cruise-control or slow down, but instead accelerated. I attempted again to hit the brakes to turn off cruise control, but again the car did not slow down. I tried both the cancel and the on/off buttons on the steering wheel, but there was no way to disengage cruise control. I was quickly approaching the semi-truck and was unable to slow down my moving vehicle. In order to avoid rear-ending the semi-truck at highway speeds, I was forced to veer left off the highway onto the soft shoulder, and was traveling locked on cruise control at 73 mph halfway on the grass median and halfway on the rumble strip of the soft shoulder. The brakes and steering wheel switches were still not working, regardless of how much I applied the brakes or what combination I hit the switches. I was finally able to get my car to slow down by hitting the clutch and stalling my car. This was an absolutely horrific incident, and I am lucky to have been uninjured and to have avoided what could have been a very serious accident.

The switch for the windows in the back suddenly stopped working. There was a loud pop! and suddenly the windows couldn't be raised back up and instead stayed at half mast. It happened to one rear window, and then a couple months later, happened to the other. I have to manually push the windows up with my hands when the rear windows fall.

I start the car and the air bag sensor comes on and stays on, then the passengers seat belt comes on whien I have a passenger seated there. I feel this is a saftey issue and Hyundaii should fix it!!!! I contacted Hyundai customer support, they stated its my problem and they would not help.

For some reason now since moving my driver side door will not open from the inside. Also the motor for the windows is acting like it doesn't want to work I have a hard time closing windows once they are out down. Help.
