2013 Hyundai Veloster

On 8/2123 my son had left school, once on the major road his car would not accelerate. As he was turning, at a light, to get off the major road his car went limp and could barely move. An on coming car just missed him. I opened a claim with hyundai because they have a open case with their engines. They verified that the car is on the list for the extended warranty of the engine. Towed the car to a dealership and based off their diagnostic they say it's not the rod bearings it could be the camshaft or crankshaft and therefore the car is not qualified for the extended warranty. It is clear that they are covering themselves to not replace my engine. My son almost got into a major accident due to their faulty engine.

The steering coupler for the MDPS (Motor Driven Power Steering) was disentegrated mostly. There are 8 cutouts on the coupler. 4 catch the motor and 4 catch the steering box. Its original and made of soft rubber. The steering always seemed vague for a sports car. The new coupler Dorman 926-990 looks like a urethane, some type of firmer material. The car steers perfectly now. The danger is from the chance that the coupler wouldn't catch when turning the steering wheel which supplies input to the MPDS and the steering wheel would turn and the front wheels wouldn't or maybe only sort of follow the intended direction.

Unknown. I was driving my car home after work and basically the engine blew a piston out of the side of the engine while going 20mph, was just driving normally them a loud boom sounded like I hit a pothole or something but their where no objects in the road. And in my review I seen a trail of oil and one the car stopped all the oil was dripping from the underneath the car. The car had been sending a check engine light/coil misfire. And from what I know the recall is for some type of misfire code. I got no help from the dealer as to why my engine blew up other than it was my fault I lost the car in a accident and don’t have it anymore but I put in 7,000-10,000 on a turbo system and refurbished engine. And I strongly believe it has something to do with the recall at hand But I had no choice at the time and the recall didn’t come to me till after I lost the car.

The contact owns a 2013 Hyundai Veloster. The contact stated while diving 40 MPH, the front driver’s side sun visor exploded. The contact stated that the air bags warning light illuminated. There was no injury sustained. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, but the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was 55,000.

When I took my car to the Hyundai dealer for recalls in April 2023 after they completed the service my steering coupler broke and I was told it would cost me 292.00 to repair. I went this morning to get tires at flynn's and they gave me a technical service bulletin 14-st-002-1 re: the steering coupler and told me to call Hyundai because it should be replaced for free. I phoned Hyundai dealer and they stated this does not apply to my particular vin #. It is definitely broken and should be applied to this vehicle.

Steering wheel is clicking with the slightest movement. After diagnostic at Hyundai they stated its a known issue , yet no recall for this model has been put out yet. Only on other Hyundai's. The diagnostic result given was the coupling was going bad. If this effects your ability to steer your vehicle I feel like this should be a safety recall. I have located several complaints about this same issue. On the veloster forum there are multiple people experiencing this same issue.
