SEAT BELTS

Potential Consequences:

Middle row right seat belt keeps coming unlatched during normal operation. I ensure that it is latched correctly when I start driving. The passengers are not touching the seatbelt when it unlatches. We are notified that it’s unlatched by the seatbelt alarm. This started happening about three years after purchasing the vehicle. After happening several times, we took it to the dealer, who said they couldn’t replicate the event. It happened again about a week later.

Potential Consequences:

I tried opening my sunroof and it made a clicking noise and is now stuck partially open. The dealership said that there is a set of Hyundai vehicles that are being covered by this malfunction but that my particular VIN isn't included. A Hyundai dealership is looking at it on Monday 03/17/2025 and is unsure if Hyundai will cover the repair since my VIN isn't included and I am past the bumper to bumper warranty. I only have the powertrain warranty left.

Potential Consequences:

Shock failure within 33,000 miles. Going over bumps at higher speeds causes some loss of control of the vehicle. Dealer confirmed the issue with the shock upper insulator. No one else has inspected this at this time. No warning lamps, messages or other symptoms. When driving at any speed bumps on the road cause very bumpy ride. Dealer states Hyundai's TSB 22-SS-001H has been rescinded. Shocks failed within 33,000 miles. No remedy for knocking and rattling noise in rear of vehicle caused by shock mounts. This seems to be the cause of the shocks failing prematurely.

SEAT BELTS

Potential Consequences:

I am having problems with the seatbelt buckles in the second and third row seats, either not buckling to begin with (the seatbelt will not latch), or the seatbelt spontaneously unbuckles while I am driving. It is an intermittent problem, the seatbelts sometimes work but sometimes don't work. I took my car in to my local Hyundai service center for this problem in 5/2024 and the technician was able to replicate the problem in the 2 second row seats and both buckles were replaced. The seatbelts all worked well until about a month ago and now I am again having the same problems with intermittent spontaneous unlatching of the seatbelts in the 2 second row seats and one of the third row seats. I took my car in to my local Hyundai dealership on [XXX] and unfortunately the technician was not able to replicate the problem that day. My local dealership (McDonald Hyundai in Highlands Ranch, CO) refused to try to fix the problem this time, and a complaint filed with Hyundai of America (case #[XXX]) has resulted in similar inaction--since the technician could not replicate the problem that day, they tell me there is nothing to be done. I am concerned that spontaneously unlatching seatbelts (in the seats my children sit in) are unlikely to work properly to restrain them in the case of a car accident.

Defect Description:

SEAT BELTS

Potential Consequences:

The passenger seat belt will spontaneously unbuckle without warning or cause. This puts the passenger safety at risk in case there were a crash. The problem hasn't been repaired by a dealer but it's happened about 4 or 5 times. I've not had it inspected. No warning lamps went off before the failure. Luckily, the passenger unlock alert went off when it unbuckled so we were alerted to the seat belt buckle malfunction.

Defect Description:

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Potential Consequences:

When turning on the child safety locks, the doors repeat a clicking sound for a few minutes sounding as if the doors are locking. After the noise stops, the dashboard shows the message "child safety lock failure". My small child has been winding the window down since I cannot lock the windows and doors properly. I am afraid she will get a body part caught in the window or open the door while driving.

SEAT BELTS

Potential Consequences:

The 2nd row, passenger side seat belt came unbuckled while we were driving. Then we started struggling to get it to click in. Now it won't close at all. I read online that this seems to be a common issue and that NHTSA started an investigation so I wanted to share my experience. I am bringing it into the dealer today.
