2012 Hyundai Veloster body problems

Filed Jun 19, 2025 · Body · TX

On Tue 6/17 I was driving my 2012 Hyundai Veloster home when the sunroof glass spontaneously exploded (no notifications)then the sound of shattering glass. There were no cars ahead of me and none behind so it was doubtful there was damage done to other people. I did have small chunks of glass fall on me and in the car. Humble Hyundai dealership can't find the recall. I called the main office it's recall campaign # is 108. The dealership said the recall had to be opened back up so they can see it. Otherwise I will be hit with a bill too high for me to handle. Please help asap. Thank you

The car was in Hyundai dealership for 35 days to have a recalls fixed - still showing as no remedy for ABS systems and they said they fixed it ? they had me pick up the car? And but the recall still shows no remedy ? I’m not sure it’s fixed ? and 2 weeks later the transmission goes out while I’m driving again and lose control over the vehicle and stuck on side of road had And Hyundai dealership proceeded to only be concerned on who’s paying for the diagnosis who has been the one fixing the vehicle and I have an extended warranty with Car Max. Car max sold me a car that had rusted brakes and brake lines and several recalls and now the transmission went out . I have expressed to Hyundai and Carmax - The car is not safe .

The rear door (there's only one) on the passenger side will no longer open either from the outside or the inside. There appears to be many complaints of this on the veloster online forum. I noticed this when I was attempting to open it when a passenger was going to sit there. They had to climb in and out of the rear hatch. This would definitely be a safety issue in an emergency.

The emergency brake light stays on and the car seems to hesitate after putting into drive or reverse. Feels like the brake is still on.

The car started to rattle and started to not be able to accelerate. I pulled the car to the side of a semi busy road and let it sit for a moment while turned off and then after 30 seconds turned the car back on. I started to drive the car and turned down a residential road (rothrock circle copley, oh) and that is when things got really bad.the car was in motion and started to act even stranger. It had issues accelerating again and then while driving down the road the lunged forward and then white smoke and flames came from under the cars front end. I jumped out of the car after turning it off, grabbed my personal items and ran off incase of an explosion. I called 911instantly and while on the phone with copley police my car was engulfed in flames. Firefighters came out and started to extinguish the flames but it was too late and the whole front of the car was melted, burned, and destroyed.
