1 Vehicle Speed Control problem of the 2015 Hyundai Azera

Failure Date: 12/09/2024

This is happened too many times even though in frequent and it is very unsafe when it happens on the open road as the steering will be completely unavailable most likely relative to the eps. No incident yet but that is only because I’m a good driver, but it sure is unsafe and scary and something needs to be done as I’ve read many online people having the same issue with this vehicle.

Failure Date: 07/10/2023

I have made sure that the oil was changed on my 2015 Hyundai Azera. It has consistantly used oil. And now , I noticed a disturbing sound under the hood. Now, I have found metal shavings in my oil. This is a theta engine. 6 cylinder. And according to the internet. Since 2011, Hyundai engines have been consistantly complained about and this engine needs to be added to the recall list for having the exact same manufacturing defect of metal shavings in the oil, like so many millions of other Hyundai cars. Thank you, nicol richards.

18 Vehicle Speed Control problem of the 2006 Hyundai Azera

Failure Date: 07/28/2010

Hyundai has an issue with faulty throttle position sensors which causes the car's engine to stumble and then switch into "limp home" mode. This mode only allows a top speed of 20mph with very little acceleration power. This problem occurs when you are depressing the gas pedal, such as pulling out into traffic or merging into traffic. This is a serious safety issue that could lead to crashes, as the car will not accelerate as it is supposed to. Currently, Hyundai has issued TSB 09-FL-003-2, but will only cover the repair costs if the car is under warranty. Being a serious safety issue, I feel that they should be required to recall these vehicles and replace defective sensors.

Failure Date: 06/22/2010

My daughter was driving on highway at about 60 mph with my wife and grandson when she lost accelerator function on her Hyundai Azera (2009 model). I am very concerned that this is a safety hazard.

I am still skeptical that the could have caused a very accident and loss of life and property. Is it safe for her to drive this car?.
