This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
The contact owns a 2007 Hyundai Azera. While the vehicle was stationary and while driving various speeds, the driver's seat moved involuntarily. In addition, the gear shifter failed to move to the reverse position when prompted. The contact turned off and restarted the vehicle in an attempt to correct the failures. A dealer and the manufacturer were not made aware of the failures. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The contact referenced NHTSA campaign number: 16V630000 (seats) as a possible cause of the seat failure. The failure mileage was 136,840.
Malfunction in the shift interlock cable caused my vehicle to shift into neutral on its own while in operation which could have resulted in an accident accident. Dealer mechanical services stated there was an issue with the shift interlock cable bushing breaking causing the vehicle to automatically shift into neutral. The vehicle was in motion at time of the occurrence.
2007 Hyundai Azera limited consumer states transmission is jerking when shifting from park to reverse the consumer stated the transmission was flushed and replaced at 70,000 miles. The transmission problem started at 72,886. The dealer removed some of the transmission fluid. However, the same thing happened. The consumer believed the shift solenoid or transmission control module was faulty. Hyundai, stated the transmission should be replaced.
While sitting in a drive thru window at a complete stop, my car experienced sudden unintended acceleration and crashed into the stop car in front of me. The rate at which my car accelerated was so great that I had whip lash from this event. I am scared to drive my car again. I called Hyundai who assured me that this did not happen as I stated and there is nothing wrong with their cars. Interestingly, my car had just been at the dealer(2 weeks) for a tsb on "emission control" issue. My car was sluggish and staling when I came to a stop. Now 2 weeks later I am slamming into a stopped car at what seemed like 60mph!! please help me.
I pushed down the gas to try to pass someone and the transmission went into neutral. I could not get it to re engage and had to coast to the side of the freeway, almost getting hit by the driver behind me. Dealer had the car two days and said they could not duplicate and refused to repair even though 100K warranty is in effect.this happened twice before in 2010 and 2011. Both times the car was brought to the dealer and nothing done. I was told by the mechanic that Hyundai could authorize a "flight recorder" to be installed in my car so when it happens next they would have a recording of the issue. The dealer promised to call me Monday but so far no call back and no authorization. My wife won't drive the car and I am uneasy with it. She was going to buy a Hyundai sonata, but now refuses to do so and is telling her cousins the story so they are also switching to Toyota. What a shame.
