2010 Hyundai Accent

THE IGNITION CABLES AND SPARK PLUGS ARE FAULTY AND HAD TO BE REPLACED JUST AFTER 60,000 MILES. I WAS DRIVING AND SUDDENLY MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STARTED FLASHING, MY CAR WAS SHAKING, AND NOT SHIFTING PAST FIRST GEAR. HAD IT TOWED TO A MECHANIC. THEY SAID THE IGNITION CABLES AND SPARK PLUGS WERE FAULTY. THEY HAD SEEN THIS ON HYUNDAI'S BEFORE. *TR

MY DAUGHTER'S CAR ENGINE SHUTS DOWN WHEN SHE IS DRIVING IN THE STREET. THE CAR WAS TAKEN ON AUGUST 17, 2016, TO HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP AND WE WERE TOLD THAT IT WAS THE FUEL PUMP AND SENSOR. IT WAS REPLACED AND THEY CHARGED US $800. THE NEXT DAY THE CAR STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET. THE ENGINE SHUT DOWN. NOW, THE DEALERSHIP IS REPLACING THE CAMSHAFT SENSORS WITH NO GUARANTEE THAT THIS IS THE PROBLEM. THIS PRESENTS A SAFETY ISSUE AS THE CAR SHUTS DOWN WHILE DRIVING IN THE STREETS OR HIGHWAY. IT CAN CAUSE AN ACCIDENT.

THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND SIMPLY TOOK NOTES. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 83,000. THE VIN WAS NOT PROVIDED.

MY SON WAS DRIVING AT AROUND 30 MPH ON A 2 LANE CITY STREET WHEN THE STEERING UNIT GAVE OUT AND HE ALMOST LOST CONTROL OF THE CAR. LOOKING UNDER THE CAR HE NOTICED THAT THE STEERING FLUID WAS POURING OUT THE RACK AND PINION GEAR BOX. I DO UNDERSTAND THAT THE CAR HAS OVER 100K MILES ON IT AND IT MORE THAN 5 YRS OLD. HOWEVER I HAVE OWNED MANY CARS WITHIN MY LIFETIME AND NEVER HAD THIS ISSUE - EVER. YET -I DID NOTICE ON THE NHSTA WEBSITE THAT THERE WAS ANOTHER HYUNDAI ACCENT OWNER WITH SAME MODEL YEAR ( 2010 ) WHO LODGED A SIMILAR COMPLAINT. AND KNOWING THAT BOTH THE ELANTRA'S AND SONTA'S HAVE HAD SIMILAR ISSUES WITH THEIR STEERING COMPONENTS AROUND THE SAME TIME FRAME MAKE ME SUSPECT THAT THERE IS SOMETHING MORE GOING ON. I THINK- THIS SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED BY THE NHSTA.

WAS INVOLVED IN A FRONT-END COLLISION ON FEBRUARY 12, 2016, THE DRIVER'S SIDE AIRBAG FAILED TO DEPLOY. THE CAR'S HISTORY INDICATED NO PRIOR ACCIDENTS OR AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT. THE CAR WAS IN MOTION (55 MPH) AND DRIVING STRAIGHT ON A STATE HIGHWAY. THE OTHER VEHICLE ENTERED AN INTERSECTION WITHOUT LOOKING, AND THE HYUNDAI HIT IT BROADSIDE AT FULL SPEED, AS THERE WAS MINIMAL STOPPING TIME.
