In December, as I was walking to my car in the morning to go to work, I noticed my brake light hanging out on the right side of the car. The whole lighting fixture was removed from the plastic and not connected to the hinges anymore. I couldn?t afford to fix it at the time so I rigged it so it would stay in place temporarily. About 2 months later, the left side did the same thing. The entire lamp light was hanging out of the sockets again! I became enraged because both times this happened while the car was parked. When I took it to the dealership, they said it was vandalism and said I would have to pay full price for both lights. After I did some research, I found lots and lots of posts with the same thing occurring to them. This is not a coincidence! there needs to be a recall for this as this is not safe. I am scared to wash my car due to the electrical wires that may be get shorted. I am going to try my best to complain about this in many platforms as I can until this is deemed fair and addressed by the proper authorities. I was actually praising Hyundai for the experience up until this point. Now, I feel robbed and will not recommend this car due to the injustice experience. If this has happened to you, please report it. Thank you for listening.
While driving at 65mph on highway, there was a sudden loss of acceleration. It was as if I had let go of the gas pedal. Of course the pedal was at the same position and did not change. I let go of the pedal and repressed it and noticed that I got my power back. It does this intermittently for the last two months. No code errors appearing on dash or obd reading. Will happen at any given speed. Other issue is the driver side break light will work for a few weeks and then burn out, in which it will leave the remaining center and passenger brake light permanently on while the headlights are turned on. So it appears that I am breaking but I am not. Only temporary fix is to remove the left bulb from its socket.
The tail and brake lights are constantly burning up. It started 3 years ago and the issue was once in awhile. But this year it seems that I have to purchase bulbs twice a month and is either the passenger or driver side.
I closed the trunk and the driver side brake light housing unit pulled away from the vehicle. I opened the trunk again to look from inside and noticed the four screws holding the unit in place were totally broken off. The plastic holding the screws to the main housing unit crumbled into little pieces.

"takata recall"I believe that I owned a defected vehicle. Since day 1 there was one electrical problem after the other. My radio comes on and off by itself, Hyundai fairfax found no problem after three visits, until I just gave up. I replace 7 - 8 blubs in my car, a airbag, and now a socket for my brake light because my came on and off, like other items in my car. It¿s like I have a shortage or electrical problem with my vehicle. After, they replaced the clock sensor in the steering wheel for the airbag, now my passenger door locks and unlock sometimes. Every time I complain to fairfax Hyundai, they deny that anything could be wrong with my vehicle. I understand that Hyundai desire is to meet safety regulation and customer satisfaction by providing good product. Unfortunately, things sometimes happen. It¿s when a corporation takes the complaints seriously and addresses the customer concerns, is what grows a business. I have yet had anyone contact me of my concerns since I had this vehicle, after making many complaints. I will appreciate someone taking this situation and my concerns seriously by contacting me with a resolution.
