| 2009 | EXTERIOR LIGHTING | I OWN TWO HYUNDAI ACCENTS, A 2008 AND THIS, A 2009. NOW BOTH HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THE BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH BECOMING INOPERATIVE. FORTUNATELY, THE LACK OF BRAKE LIGHTS WAS NOTICED BEFORE ANY ACCIDENTS OCCURRED, AND THE VEHICLES WERE TAKEN TO THE DEALER AND WERE REPAIRED AT NO CHARGE. IT SEEMS THAT THE RECALL FOR 2006 AND 2007 SHOULD HAVE BEEN EXTENDED TO THE 2008 AND 2009 ACCENT MODELS (PLUS ANY OTHERS USING THE SAME BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH). *TR |
| 2013 | AIR BAGS | I WAS IN AN ACCIDENT ON OCTOBER 14, 2013 WHERE I STRUCK A DEER HEAD ON AT 50MPH AND THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. I WROTE TO HYUNDAI AND COMPLAINED, AND AFTER THEIR "INVESTIGATION", THEY DETERMINED THAT I WAS NOT ENTITLED TO ANY ASSISTANCE. WELL, TWO NIGHTS AGO, ON WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 18, 2013, I STRUCK AND WENT UNDER A FORD F150 TRUCK. I WAS PINNED IN THE VEHICLE. MY AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY - AGAIN. HOW AM I TO FEEL SAFE IN THIS VEHICLE? THEIR "INVESTIGATION" SAID THAT THE AIRBAGS WERE IN WORKING ORDER AND THAT SIMPLY HITTING A DEER WOULD NOT MAKE THEM GO OFF. WELL, THIS TIME I HIT AND WENT UNDER A VEHICLE AND WAS PINNED IN MY VEHICLE AND THEY STILL DIDN'T GO OFF. I AM SO DISAPPOINTED IN HYUNDAI. THIS WAS MY FIRST NEW CAR. AND IT HAS LASTED ME 1 1/2 YEARS, NOT EVEN. I WAS NOT CITED FOR THE ACCIDENT AS THE OFFICER SAID IT WAS NOT MY FAULT. MY INSURANCE COMPANY IS CONSIDERING TOTALING THE VEHICLE. I AM BEYOND UPSET. I'M OPENING ANOTHER COMPLAINT AGAINST HYUNDAI, MAYBE THEY WILL "GET IT" THIS TIME. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE!!!!! *TR |
