Constant False positives, already took to dealership and issue still persists

Filed May 6, 2022 · Driver assistance · CT

This car came with summer tires(Pirelli P-Zero summer tires), so I decide to change to all-season CONTINENTAL EXTREME CONTACT DWS06 PLUS with the same size as OEM tires which is 235/35/19. I got my new tires installed on the morning of Feb 27, 2021, next day my blind spot system started to acting up without any error message on the dash. The indicator on both sides of the mirrors stays on while no vehicle around me, sometimes they remain off when there is a vehicle around.

The first oil change, December 2020, no oil was in the vehicle, it was under the recommended miles. Second oil change, April 2021, cut the recommended miles down and again no oil was in the vehicle. May 28, 2021 Leaving a parking lot, the Veloster began to cut out and stall. Within 2 miles it died completely, three times. There was no oil in the Veloster. No lights or warnings came on, until I was leaving the dealership. I continue to have issues with the motor dragging, not shifting properly and trying to die. The recall was closed on the Veloster for the oil rings not being heat treated properly, without Hyundai actually fixing the problem. I have been told the whole time the stalling and cutting out is not connected to the oil ring issue.

No warning lights came on during the whole time this happened ... purchased this car with 98 miles on it.... I had the car for 7 days .. mind you i did not use the special features of the car like launch control or NGrin Shifting ... i did not take the car past 4k RPM as per the manual ... @ 1100 miles exactly i had just filled up with gas and as i pull out the car dies on me ... i go to start it .. it keeps trying to turn over .. and over and over ... till i smelt gas .... so i put the car into neutral and roll back to the curb i could see the trail of gas left behind it .... so i had it towed to a different dealer as the one who sold it to me .. was not a option to take it to on the app... so the dealer calls me and tells me its the HIGH PRESSURE FUEL pump ... but funny thing is , that It had all ready been replaced before they sold me the car..... witch they did not disclose to me .... as soon as the dealer who sold me the after i filed a formal corporate complaint had the car towed to thier shop where it currently sits and its been over 2 weeks waiting on a part ... but the fact is this is the second time they have had to replace the pump or line and the car only has 1100 miles on it .....

Around 6000 miles the steering wheel froze while coming from a long highway trip and tried to veer me across 3 lanes into a wall. Had to man handle it off the roadway up the off ramp. Turned the car off, then turned it back on, and it was like nothing happened. Took it to the dealer and they couldn't find anything, because they say there was no code. Well, same thing just happened again while I'm out of state. Another icon appears on the screen and my steering wheel locked up at 65 miles per hour, surrounded by 18 wheelers. Had to grip the wheel again like superman and thread between 2 trucks to make it to the right shoulder. Hurried up to turn the car off and turn it back on quickly to avoid being hit from behind by any other vehicles. It worked. Car started and acted like nothing happened again. I continued on my long trip carefully and cautiously. This was the second time at 15,000 miles on car now. I googled it and saw on other car forums the same problem, but no one has complained yet. I have to make another appointment, but I'm sure they will say the same thing. This is a big safety issue that hyundai need to figure out and fix. I love my car, but its trying to kill me, and possibly others around me. So please investigate this issue. Thanks.

- Blind spot monitoring system - It rarely works and if it does work, it warns me of vehicles when none are around. I believe this could cause an accident if someone is not warned of a vehicle in the blind spot. - Yes, it was recalibrated by the dealer but it was not fixed. - No

1. What failed - BSM monitoring fails to an always on state 2. Safety affected - Visibility out of the Veloster N is already quite poor, BSM also failing makes lane changes uncertain 3. Yes it's a known issue 4. No 5. The only warning is that the BSM in the mirrors stays on constantly and doesn't respond to cars in the blindspot

I recently switched on winter tires for my 2021 Hyundai Veloster N. This car comes with stock summer tires and they would be unsafe for winter conditions in New England. After switching on the winter tires, the blind spot monitoring system has started registering a lot of false positives, especially at low speeds. I verified this issue is strangely caused by the tire change because if I put my stock summer tires back on the car, the false positives go away. Other 2021 Veloster N owners have already submitted similar reports to the federal safety agency so I am helping out by highlighting this issue as well. Once a driver such as myself becomes acclimated to the blind spot monitoring system, having constant false positives is dangerous and I am getting subconsciously trained to ignore the warnings. Also turning off the system is not a good option either because I am too used to the system being on and might momentarily forget that the system is off and mistake that as nothing in my blind spot. Switching tires on my other vehicles with blind spot monitoring does not pose any such issues, I want to note that here. It seems to be exclusive to Hyundai and this model also as reported by other Veloster N owners.

Blind spot warning system does not work correctly when using any wheel or tire other than the OEM supplied wheel and tire. The mirror light will stay on when there is no car in the blind spot or will fail to detect when there is a car there. The system works correctly with the OEM wheel and tire and also notably will work in rain and snow conditions. Dealership seems not especially willing or able to assist in resolving this, as also reported by other Veloster N owners as well.
