Bought my Veracruz in 2018. After not even a year I started experiencing problems with the charging system. Car would die overnight. Replaced a battery with the new one 3 weeks later same thing happened. Changed many sensors checked the fuses looked for parasitic draw. . . Battery cables. Removed the alternator had it checked at advance auto it was surprisingly good. It was covered with oil leaking out of valve cover. . Replaced the valve cover seal but the problem still remains. That leakage messed up my charging system. I cannot even drive the car safely anymore because the voltage keeps dropping rapidly. Even tho alternator is good it's not charging the battery while car is running. P0346 is the code I'm getting when I scan the vehicle. Check engine and tpms are on. I won't even be able to pass emissions test next month due to this mess.

I went to start my car and I heard a nose so then I turn the car off and so as I put it in gear to drive it went on it own the brakes was not work.
In 2018 I had to replace my alternator as it failed while at a stop light. My dash warning lights illuminated so I pulled over to the curb and turned the vehicle off. I was not able to start the car back up and had to have it towed home. I noticed that there is evidence of oil leaking again… it is over the alternator as well as other parts under the hood. I also notice oil in my driveway where I park my car. I am concerned that the alternator will fail again as Hyundai still have no remedy for the issue.
The battery completely drains. Sometimes its because the lights turn on by themselves when the car is off, or the radio comes on, or the wipers turn on, or the ac turns on, or the blower in the rear turns on. These items will stay on all night while parked in the driveway and drain the battery completely. I have tried to remove the specific fuses ie. The radio, but then its the blower that stays on. I remove that fuse and its the lights that came on. This has been going on for the better part of 2 years.
My vehicle is experiencing all of the issues listed in the following campaigns, yet, the manufacturer is refusing to cover the replacement of the part. 13v113000 09v122000 the vehicle gets stuck in drive, or park, and can't be adjusted when the brake is depressed. The esc sticks on randomly. I've replace many, many brake lights in this vehicle.
Battery and seat belt indicator lights began flashing intermittently and eventually I lost all power and engine shut down on a busy highway with several children and an infant on board.
This is a complaint about the failure of the Hyundai company to respond in a timely matter to a recall issued in Nov. 2020 (NHTSA 20v-705/Hyundai recall 197) which can affect the alternator and electrical system of the vehicle. The company has not yet issued a resolution and so the dealers will not perform the necessary repairs needed to avoid a breakdown. This is the second recall issued for the exact same problem. Hyundai stated they would issue a remedy but have failed to do so and it has been 8 months. I am asking NHTSA to require the company to provide a remedy so as to avoid a potentially dangerous system failure. I have been through an electrical system failure once already while in traffic due to this precise problem. It could have been deadly. Something needs to be done and Hyundai is dragging its feet. Please intervene.

Proximity key worked on and off for a week and then stopped working completely, key inside proximity fob only unlocks doors, no way to start vehicle without this device working. Tried to order a new proximity key fob through an auto locksmith, Hyundai service would not assist locksmith on programming new proximity key and we were told only dealers can do this and that it would be approximately $65. 00 to reprogram the proximity key. Once we took the vehicle to Hyundai and Hyundai checked the vehicle we were told the proximity key would need to be replaced, price jumped from $65. 00 to $290. 00 plus $65. 00 reprogramming the new proximity fob, the next day we were contacted that the module that makes the proximity key fob work was bad and needed to be replaced. Price went from $355. 00 to $1300. 00 for the new module and proximity key fob. Today, after a week of the vehicle being at Hyundai we were told by the Hyundai service advisor that the module for this proximity key fob is under the cup holder in the middle console and that fluid (they assumed soda) leaked through the console shorting the module causing us to replace the module and the proximity key fob. .
Hyundai announced the following recall in November 2020. To date they have done nothing to remedy the problem. My vehicle had this problem and failed while driving on the freeway in 2016. I repaired the problem back then at my expense but my vehicle should be assessed by Hyundai and cleared or additional repairs made. I am waiting over 6 months for a remedy on a recall that was originally announced in 2014 and reissued in 2020 because of Hyundai's failure to adequately address the problem.

Nhtsa recall number 20v-705. The engine value cover gasket leaks oil onto the alternator. My engine has been smoking for six months (January 2021-present). This problem was not repaired correctly under a previous recall in 2014. In 2016 the problem persisted and my car shut off unexpectedly, causing me to stop in the high speed lane of the massachusetts turnpike, nearly resulting in a major accident and fatality. The value gasket and alternator was replaced the day after the incident but the problem has emerged again. I have received two notices from Hyundai in last few months under recall 197 stating that a "remedy is being prepared" following the NHTSA recall order of November 2020, but to date no remedy has been noticed. Hyundai customer service suggests that I pay for the repair myself at the dealer and seek reimbursement from Hyundai America myself but I lack funds to do so. As stated, the engine is smoking, the check engine light is on, and I fear for my family's safety. This vehicle is needed for transportation to work and to purchase essentials. Hyundai's response to this issue has not been timely. By this complaint, I am respectfully requesting the NHTSA to order Hyundai to directly reimburse my local dealer for this critical repair so as to remedy this dangerous situation. Joseph m.

While driving at night with the headlights on, the headlights would go off completely for a moment (perhaps one to two seconds) when the turn signal is used. The headlights always came back on when the turn signal lever was returned to the normal center position. This has happened occasionally for a couple of months, but then it occurred frequently on a recent trip where I was driving at night for about six hours straight on an interstate highway.
I just got this car around may and it started making a terrible noise when it was in park and neutral. Took it to a mechanic and he said it was in the switch. Also, during this time I had noticed the esc light came on and sometimes during that time I cannot change gears. Wondered if there was any recalls with this problem or any other complaints.
While driving my 2008 Veracruz, the abs, esc, and 4wd lights went on, a few minutes later the speedometer registerd zero, then worked intermittently. According to my mechanic the source of the problem was the abs module. The original abs module became inoperable in March 2015, after approximately 41,000 miles and was replaced once the part became available from Hyundai on 4/9/15. The part was purchased brand new from Hyundai by my mechanic and professionally installed, drove approximately 100 miles before the . According to my mechanic, the abs module which cost approximately $2,500 and controls the brakes, stability control, speedometer, traction control, etc is only guaranteed by Hyundai for 30 days. Two abs module failures within a month.
Started car, esc off, awd, and abs warning lights stayed on. After a few minutes driving there was a whirring noise in the engine compartment on the drivers side. Stepping on the brakes made the noise go away, noise returned when releasing the brakes. Repair shop diagnosed it to be the abs module which needed to be replaced.
Car was driving ok since we have acquired it . No problems, no issues until we had a snow storm when my wife driving home from my children's school the cruise control got stuck and would not release. She put the car in neutral and the engine rpm kept going up. She turned the car off then restarted in 5 mins it was ok with all light in cluster on. Diagnosed the car with wheel speed sensor rr. It drove for 1 hour then all light came back on. Took it to deal for the open recall I found online about my model car. Dealer changed all recall problems but light is on. Now the dealer said no communication to the car's computer can bus. Checked with my local mechanic and said it is the abs hydraulic pump and module affixed to it. It is shorted out inside and causes interference with the computer system. The cost of parts is well over 2600 plus labor.
Esc off, awd, and abs lights lit up on the dashboard. While driving in traffic, the vehicle suddenly died and lost electricity and had to coast the vehicle to the side of intersection, while not having power. Eventually able to restart the vehicle and drive again. Happened 2 more times where the vehicle died while it was being driven. While driving it to the dealer, noticed the speedometer was not working. Dealer found a bunch of codes for wheel sensors and eventually determined the issue was an abs hydraulic module, which costs over $2000 just for the part itself. I researched through several Hyundai forum websites and it appears this is a chronic issue with this vehicle as other owners have had the same problem. Due to the cost of this part and the safety issues involved with driving the vehicle, I would suggest it should be part of a recall. Veracruz owners should be notified not to drive the vehicle if the combination of these lights come on, as the vehicle may quit and lose power while it is being driven.
Tl-the contact owns a 2008 Hyundai Veracruz. The contact stated that while driving approximately 8 mph, the battery warning light illuminated as the vehicle stalled. The contact had to maneuver to the side of the road. The vehicle started but all the warning lights on the instrument were illuminated. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 50,100. The VIN was not available. Pam.
Leaking fluid on my driveway. No action on recall noted on Nov. 19, 2014 Hyundai repair invoice. Reference manufacturer recall # 197. It has been 7 years waiting for this problem to be remedied by Hyundai. This situation is ridiculous!.
Tl-the contact owns 2008 Hyundai vera cruz. The contact stated that the radio and heat was not working properly. The contact also stated that the heat would blow out cool air and the radio would malfunction intermitedly. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for a diagnosis. The failure recurred multiple times. The vehicle was was taken to the dealer for a diagnosis of the failure and the mechanic had diagnosed the vehicle with unknown failure. The heat was approximate failure mileage on the vehicle was 60,000. Rw.
The car just failed and did not have power. Lights came on and then car stopped. It is recall 121 from Hyundai but they will not fix the problem because they have no solution. I tried to fix it once before but I was told I had to pay my own bill and they might reimburse me because they have no long term fix for the issue. But my car died because of it and they say that is my problem because I have 151k miles on the car. I spoke to many people at Hyundai and no one would take responsibility. That is crazy that they know it is a problem but will not own up to fixing it for me.
Driving on interstate 1-285 taking exit 7 to walmart when all dash board lights such as battery light, abs, cruise, starting flickering and suddenly car just shut off while in motion. While car shut off it was still rolling and car would not shift in park, brakes and steering wheel locked, and key would not release from ignition. If hadn't told cousin to jump out my family and I would have crashed in the back of a parked car at walmart.
This vehicle went out of control when trying to park. When I tried to move stick to park, the vehicle took off with 70 - 80 miles an hour. Once it took off lke plane, I had no control over this vehicle. I tried to stop it but breaks did not work, steering was locked and can not turn off ignition either. Vehicle travelled about 800 - 1000 ft before it stopped. Vehicle finally came to stop by trees. Steering, breaks and gas nothing worked as expected and I had no control over this vehicle. This vehicle went through this ordeal in children play area and luckily it was early in the morning and no one was in play area. Imagine if this vehicle was on interstate, major intersection or us / state hwy. This vehicle is road hazard and may cause serios accidents and possibly loss of life. I have also contacted Hyundai and they have opened up case to check but want NHTSA to investigate the issue so we have neutral outcome v/s just Hyundai. I wanted to bring up this matter to your attention so proper investigation should be completed for this vehicle to avoid loss of property or lives. Please contact me for more details.
Randomly after pulling up to a stop in my garage, I cannot move my shifter from drive to park. I can only move it back and forth from neutral to drive. After turning the car on and off multiple times in neutral it allowed me to put the car into park. I could not back out of my garage, nor could I put it into park, a serious safety concern. I called Hyundai corporate and they told me the recall for it has already been done, but it is doing it now every time I want to put it into park. The esc off light comes on without pushing the button and the car is stuck in drive.
Vehicle lost electrical control including ability to accelerate while driving on the highway. Was unable to shift vehicle out of gear. Previous electrical issues caused brake failures and starting and throttle control issue.
Driving less than 40 mph and multiple lights came on, almost simultaneously. First esc off, abs and parking brake lights. Then momentarily afterwards check engine and tpms lights came on. Took it to stealership, said the brake control module was bad and needed to be replaced. Car kept in excellent condition with freq oil changes and proper tire maintenance. Est cost to repair $2,800. Out of warranty and was told that they haven't seen anything like this in their shop.
Headlights flash/flicker and/or turn off for a few seconds when right turn indicator is activated while headlight switch is in the "on" position. At times headlights stay out until turn indicator is deactivated. Vehicle does not have to be moving. Rarely replicated on purpose for verification.
When I use my turn signal to signal lane changing, but do not snap it into position, my headlights will flicker on and off and will also turn off for several seconds. Additionally, I noticed during the day time that my dash board lights were brightening. I've reported the dashboard lights brightening on several occasions to the dealership while my car was in for service from 2009 to the present, but they weren't able to repeat the problem. Most recently, likely because I was driving at night, I noticed my headlights flickering on and off. I called the dealership to report it as it was happening and talked to the service representative and told him that my headlights just went off and then they came back on. I brought it in the following week. I found the same issue reported by many other people on a Hyundai forum. Several people reported that the issue was with the turn signal stalk and replacing it fixed the issue. I shared this information with the Hyundai dealership. This is a very concerning problem, as I go for seconds at a time with no headlights at random times, but always after using my turn signal.
