October 2017 I purchased a 2017 Hyundai Accent. During my very first month driving this car right bumper clip broke. As I was under warranty took car in complained to the dealership. A tech came out and basically wacked it back in place. So now I notice both left and right sides of bumper are off track. My son is a licensed mechanic. Before I took it back to dealership he had checked and said mom your clip is broke. So he looks back under it again and now BOTH clips are broke. On 9/13/17 go back in. Hyundai notes in my paperwork clips are broke but failed to repair again at a little over 30,000 miles they note it again and failed to repair. This is a safety issue and I feel it should be a recall. The clips are cheap plastic and if it comes off I fear I will be in an accident.I have also been throwing PODS module defect codes and they just keep resetting it.This air light and OCS mat defect has shown up since I first purchased the car. So for 6 years code just keeps getting reset. After calling Hyundai they are FINALLY going to repair it. So my family has been endangered for 6 years. I'm also throwing a catalytic code and that's been going on since a little over 50,000.I called a local Hyundai dealership and was told warrenty only covers a certain part of the converter. I'm at 79,000 and fed mandates say manufacturer must cover it up to 80,000. I don't know what to do and all codes just keep being reset. Car is currently undergoing a fuel consumption test as it's been eating oil like crazy since a little over 50,000.

On 5/22/19 the left tire blew out and on the5/23/2019 the rear bumper fell off the interstate. I just leased this used car on the 4/15/19. I went back to the dealer and they refused to help. Dealer stated it's wear and tear. It's only been a month.

On easter Sunday 04/01/2018 I was in an accident that caused, $ $10,800 in front end collision damage, no airbags deployed. The resulting collision caused my seatbelt on break 3 of my left ribs. I had accidentally dropped a closed water bottle between my legs, said bottle then rolled up under brake pedal, after I looked down to see where it went I looked up to my horror discovered a red ishtar with a car stopped if front of me. I slam on what brake I had available cut shell hard right and collided left front of my car into right rear of bumper in front of me, I then ricochet into guard rail thus desert he other front side of my vehicle. Again neither front or side airbags deployed.

I live where it snows. When driving down the road, the snow accumulates around the front tires and on front bumper. The accumulation of snow on my front bumper is pushing the bumper off. On both passenger and driver side of bumper are slowly being pushed off car by snow. The side of bumper is not bolted to car. It is being held by plastic clasps along top of bumper. I am afraid to drive to work because bumper might fall off while driving. Due to icy roads, my speed is 35 to 40 mi.
