36 Electrical System problem

Failure Date: 01/15/2022

Hello I purchased a new 2022 Santa Fe plugin affected by the recall on Jan 11, 2022 and the dealership calls me on 1/15 saying I need to give them the vehicle back and there is no timeframe available for when the fix will happen. Should the Hyundai dealership not sell me a vehicle with a dangerous open recall on Jan 11 when the campaign is opened up on 12/27/2021? what are my rights as a consumer with a 4-day old vehicle they now want back for an indeterminate time?.

37 Electrical System problem

Failure Date: 01/07/2022

The back doors should unlock when the SUV is put in park or the motor is turned off. However, it does not unlock over 25% of the time. This means the back doors can not be opened from the outside or inside. People in the back cannot get out unless the doors are manually unlocked from the control panel in the front. This is a real safety issue if there was an accident and the people are trapped in the car. This issue has been reported to the dealer for almost two years. They have not been able to fix the issue. I have reported this problem to Hyundai national consumer affairs (case # [xxx]) asking for their help. I ask if this falls under the lemon law since it can not be fixed and is safety issue. I was informed they could not help me. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).
