1 Front Seat Power Adjust problem

Failure Date: 09/11/2013

Driving on i70. Driver power seat moved backward. Was able to stop motion and return seat to previous position using switch. The seat had been moving back and the seatback had been titling forward when car was parked and no ignition on. Seat has since been moving back while driving more often and the seat back now tilts forward while driving. Had to stop car since switch would not override the actions. Had this checked after first incident at dealer. Stated they couldn't duplicate problem but would probably require complete replacement of drivers seat at about $2000. Have also had problem with passenger side airbags and seatbelt. Buckles have been replaced under a recall on both front seats but didn't fix the airbag problem. This is a major safety issue and a recall should be issued before someone gets killed. Think about gm key problem.

2 Front Seat Power Adjust problem

Failure Date: 09/25/2010

While driving or parked the driver side seat back moves forward pushing the drive toward the steering wheel. First started Dec. 2009 and was random. To it to the dealer and they stated they replaced drivers power seat switch. At this date it is happening so often it's unsafe to drive. I will schedule a visit to the dealer.

3 Front Seat Power Adjust problem

Failure Date: 08/10/2009

Several weeks ago the drivers side power seat back in my 2006 Hyundai Azera would incline fully forward without warning pinning me to the steering wheel. The seat bottom could be moved back by manually operating the bottom switch to move the entire seat assembly back. After the dealer replaced the incline motor and 2 different seat switches, the entire seat now moves without warning to a full extended position. The entire seat moves to the fully extended position overnight while parked in the garage. The movement is unpredictable and is considered a safety issue.

4 Front Seat Power Adjust problem

Failure Date: 08/15/2006

The contact owns a 2006 Hyundai Azera. The contact stated that the driver side headlight works improperly. The light provides a huge dark spot approximately 50 feet in front of the vehicle. The dealer adjusted the headlamp, but the failure recurred immediately afterwards. The vehicle was taken to the dealer on five more occasions, in which they changed the bulb and repeatedly adjusted the headlamp. None of the remedies corrected the failure. The contact filed a complaint with the manufacturer, but they would not assist. The failure mileage was 2,000 and current mileage was 13,000. Updated 03/25/08. The drivers side power seat switch did not move the seat back. Updated.
