When driving the car it unexpectedly does not allow acceleration to occur. The car stalled while pulling out into traffic causing a near accident. Had to turn off the car and restart it.
2007 Hyundai Entourage electrical complaints
Page 3 of 3: complaints 41 to 53 of 53, newest first, as owners wrote them.
I have called hyundai and asked about recalls, they say there are none. But my brake lights continue to stay on and my cel is on and it shows a bad computer. I feel the computer should be replaced by dealer not at my expense.
My wife and I recently took a 5,000 mile road trip. The first 4,000 miles we had no problems. However, when we were about 900 miles from home, we started having problems. We got ready to leave the hotel one morning and the ESC "off" light was on as well as the check engine light. You could floor the gas pedal, but only got 1,000 RPM's. The engine would run, but it had no power. I turned it off to go check it out, and when I came back the ESC light was gone, but the check engine light remained on the rest of the way home. The first day this happened, we got to 250 before it went into coast. After that, we could only drive about 70+ miles before it would start coasting again and we would have to find a place to pull off the road, turn the engine off and then restart it. It would run another 70+ miles and would do it all over again. The tms light would come on intermittently as well. At one point, I called our local dealer and he stated that it would be ok to drive it home in this condition. The main problem was in big cities (finding a place to pull over with the traffic) also, there was a lot of road construction with one lane traffic and nowhere to pull off. You can imagine the stress we were under. The reason for this letter, is mainly to make you aware of the problem. Needless to say, it could have been tragic. But, we were definitely lucky and were always able to pull over out of traffic going 75 MPH. Updated 10/20/11
Electrical problems,with my 2007 hyundai entourage, day one the battery had to be replaced,then at 39,000 plus miles, the power door on the left side quit working,it was bad about re-opening after being shut. Then when it was returned another problem was created ,the first time my wife locked the doors the door lock notification horn was very faint.they reordered a new horn ,no change. The ex-service manager said that's the way it should sound. My wife and I and children,family members all said it sounded strange. We didn't make a big deal out of a horn sound.then the battery again went bad, had to be replaced. At 76,000 plus miles both power doors quit working, I asked for a quote,and to keep all replaced parts. The quote was given,the parts weren't given to me. I was told they were to be sent back as a warrenty. Two power door motors and a module,all went bad at one time. When these doors quit working,no child can open them from the inside. Three -four days later after this repair a light comes on saying ESC off and engine light comes on. I researched recalls on google and it said there was a recall on the adjustable brake petal and switch. The dealership and hyundai of USA both deny that it was a recall. I am afraid this van is dangerous at this time.
Tl*the contact owns a 2007 hyundai entourage. The contact stated the driver informed him that the ESC and check engine lights were illuminating on the instrument panel. The contact also stated the brake lights would not illuminate when the brakes were engaged. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer to have the failure diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer notified the contact the vehicle was not included in the recall associated with the federal safety agency campaign id number 06v356000 (electrical system:wiring). The contact also stated the vehicle was experiencing a recurring sliding door failure where the door would open after being closed. In order to keep the door closed the contact would had to manually close it. The failure and current mileages were 76,800.
Power sliding door and other electrical problems on a 2007 hyundai entourage. Multiple replaced parts to include battery (after 24 months of use), horns, power window switch, AC/fan clutch, blown engine oil seal, tensioner, ECM with relay, brake light switch with brake lights, etc. No help or concern from dealership other than "we have never seen this issue before" or "all of these parts are under warranty, what more do you want use to do".
We purchased our 2007 hyundai entourage new in july '07. Within 2 months we began having problems with the electric sliding doors on both sides. Sometimes the doors do not close all the way, or close and reopen. Sometimes the doors won't open with any method, keyfob, buttons, or manual. The doors sometimes make a sound like there is grit in the track. We have taken this to the dealership multiple times and even showed them video of it happening. Since they can't reproduce it there has been no work done to fix it. We also have intermittent battery drain. The battery has been dead 5 times for no apparent reason. The passenger side mirror will often not adjust unless it is moved to the bottom outside corner first and then it can be adjusted. The memory for the seats/mirrors are often lost. To me these all indicate a problem with the electronics in this vehicle. Dealership has not been able to find anything to fix. We also have experienced a shimmy at highway speeds. Replaced the tires and had them road balanced to remove the worst of the shimmy. Independent garage did this and said the tires and the rims are fine. It's been close to 3 years and we are still experiencing all of these issues.
Battery just dies I.e. Becomes fully drained & dead. Has happened three times so far.
My 2007 entourage limited has several quality deficiency issues and recurring maintenance issues. The rear sliding doors (both) have been worked on several times, yet they continue to malfunction, I.e come undone/re-open, not fully latch, and consistently beep as a notice of failure. This is where my babies sit, both of them. The dvd screen has been replaced because it quit functioning properly. The van shimmies or rattles at speed around 70 MPH. It causes the center console to shake vigorously. The wheels were balanced on a special wheel balancer but this only reduced the problem. The tire pressure monitoring system has had malfunctions multiple times. There is a whine from the steering column when the wheel is turned, the alternator is creating a whine over the stereo system intermittently(really annoying), the side mirrors have both had problems with the reverse/angle function where the mirrors' motor fails to return the mirror to its user preset setting when transmission is placed out of reverse(drivers side) or fails to tilt the specified degree in reverse(passenger side). The roof leaked when the van was completely shut and had to be resealed by a specialist to correct an existing deficiency, the seal around the glass for the sunroof is degrading and cracking. The sliding rear door on the drivers side has a crimped window channel seal. This shop also stated that they "had not seen one of these [entourage] vans with so many problems". The door handles and rear high mount stop light had to be replaced due to the packing/shipping poly wrap ruining the chrome and plastic lens. The gasket for the high mount stop light had to be replaced later due to workmanship or material quality. The windshield cracked/failed (1/2" chunk of the windshield) when my wife adjusted the rear view mirror. The idler pulley has been replaced because the bearing failed. Stripping around the sliding doors are fading already and yellowing. More not enough space.
Brand new 2007 kia sedona ex. Various electrical components would fail to work sporadically. The issue started almost immediately after having bought the car. After not driving car for three days, car would not start. Would jump the car and it would hold the charge for two days, then die. Then it would hold the charge for one day and die. Took the car into hyundai on 7/14 but they could not find any problem. Also complained about the electrical panel in the roof having a leak. Hyundai ordered a part but it's been over three weeks and it hasn't arrived.
We bought a new hyundai entourage in 07 the front tire will not hold air. The key less remote entry has been replaced and is still not working. The van was in a accident involving a pole. The van was going about 35 slide on ice and smashed the hole front end of the van. The airbags didn't deploy but the light for the airbags is on. Possibly indicating they did deploy but didn't. We think this could be all electrical. Someone for hyundai motor america will be out to look at the van in 45 days. We would like the van totaled. Due to not feeling safe with the airbags.
2007 entourage se, purchased in july 07. 1. Doors would fail to remain closed when operated electrically. Tech stated that the doors were out of alignment. Kept car over night in september and stated it was fixed. This is october and it's beginning again! 2. Ignition failure. When key is turned nothing happens! Repeat process several times and maybe it starts. Kept car for 3 days. Tech stated that first the module was installed backwards, then there was a recall on one of the parts. Again the system is failing!
We have an 07 entourage limited with a number of electrical problems ,left side sliding door wouldn't open with the remote, dealer repaired with a new door sensor,now the dealer is keeping it over night because of a problem with the same door when closing and then reopening as soon as it latches,put a new latch on and still having problems so they are keeping it over night,radio and seat looses memory but it's sporadic so no way for the dealership to find the problem,rear hatch closed then reopened but hasn't recently .the trans. Has a shutter when shifting at times but have not reported at this time due to being sporadic. The dealership has been great .but this limited entourage has some electrical problems that could become serious. Msrp was $33,620.00 when we bought it in july 06 now selling for about $29000.00 the first problems started surfacing about a month after buying it now jan. 07 still having problems.
