While driving to work today on 1/21/2022 my vehicle was traveling at about 35 mile per hours when it suddenly began to slow and was unresponsive to my effort to maintain speed, and then several dashboard warning lights including the check engine light, charging system light, seatbelt light, and then the car began to have a loss of power and stalled. I did have my alternator and battery replaced in February of 2021 when this happened previously. Then I received a notice of the federal safety agency recall 20V705000 and had the remedy repaired completed in August 2022. I did attempt to have Hyundai USA reimburse me for my alternator repair and a previous repair I paid for related to the fault valve covers gaskets, but they refused my request for reimbursement. Now the problems and potential hazard remains. Thank you.

RE: the federal safety agency Recall Number 20V‑705. The engine value cover gasket leaks oil onto the alternator. My engine has been smoking for six months (January 2021-present). This problem was not repaired correctly under a previous recall in 2014. In 2016 the problem persisted and my car shut off unexpectedly, causing me to stop in the high speed lane of the Massachusetts Turnpike, nearly resulting in a major accident and fatality. The value gasket and alternator was replaced the day after the incident but the problem has emerged again. I have received two notices from Hyundai in last few months under recall 197 stating that a "remedy is being prepared" following the federal safety agency recall order of November 2020, but to date no remedy has been noticed. Hyundai customer service suggests that I pay for the repair myself at the dealer and seek reimbursement from Hyundai America myself but I lack funds to do so. As stated, the engine is smoking, the check engine light is on, and I fear for my family's safety. This vehicle is needed for transportation to work and to purchase essentials. Hyundai's response to this issue has not been timely. By this complaint, I am respectfully requesting the federal safety agency to order Hyundai to directly reimburse my local dealer for this critical repair so as to remedy this dangerous situation.

- Oil leaks causing harm to the function of the car. Yes, available for inspection. - The safety of our family was put at risk since we were left stranded at the airport on a late, hot Sunday with a broken car, & a two year old. -The vehicle was inspected by our car shop at C & R, Tire: 602‑493‑5258 17434 N Cave Creek Rd, Phoenix, AZ - The problem has been confirmed by the the important safety recalls we have received in the mail regarding Oil Leak on Alternator. - All maintenance up to date. Hello, My husband and I bought a 2010 Hyunday, Veracruz in 2018 before the arrival of our first son. It has been our first family car. Last year we began to receive important safety recall notices (three total). We didn't think anything of it since the vehicle was working just fine and we keep up to date with the maintenance of the vehicle. But then in the Fall of 2020 our car troubles began relating to oil leaks. I called the Hyundai dealership for help and was turned away, saying "there was no current remedy". Our first bill came out to over $1,200 this past Fall (2020). It was a significant amount of money but we were hopeful that the issues had been resolved at C & R tire shop. Less than 6 months later we were at our car shop again due to oil issues and having to make another significant payment of $1,560.17 on 3/02/2021. At this point we felt very discouraged but once again were hopeful that the car would run well after that. However, we were wrong. On Sunday, April 11th our family of three: My husband, two-year-old son, and I went to the airport to pick up a friend. While we were waiting for her arrival all of the lights in our dashboard lit up, the car died, and we were left stranded at the airport with no A/C and no way to get home. I ended up having to take an Uber with my son home and my husband spent hours at the airport trying to find a toe truck on a hot Sunday evening. After finding no remedy, we changed the alternator ourselves and problem is solved.

On 4/23/21, I went to start the vehicle (which is our only vehicle to transport our children), but it did not start as if the battery was dead. My husband tried to jump the vehicle, but it died as soon as jumper pack was taken off. Later that day, my baby became very ill and we had to go to urgent care. My husband only has a work van that does not have seats to transport passengers, so he put the car on a charger for a bit and the car started. While on the highway, the vehicle suddenly lost power, but we were able to coast off the highway onto an exit. We jumped the car with a jumper pack and made it to the urgent care. On the way home, we were able to jump the car with the jumper pack to get it started, but the vehicle once again lost power on the highway. We then tried to stay off the highway, but the vehicle kept losing power and we had to jump it every time we had to stop, which left us blocking traffic multiple times. We were able to jump the car and get it into a parking lot, but the car would not start with a jump after that. We had to leave the vehicle in a parking lot from 4/23/21 until 4/25/21, when my husband was able to use his work van and a car trailer to tow the car to the hyundai dealership. He looked at the car when he dropped it off and the alternator was covered in oil, which caused it to go out suddenly. There is a current hyundai recall on the car over the issue, but there is no fix. The dealership said we have to pay for repairs out of pocket and hopefully get reimbursed later. This is a large unexpected expense when we are already dealing with employment issues related to covid-19. Thankfully, no one was injured over this major safety issue while losing power on the highway and city streets.

Safety recall 121 occurred several years ago - but it is related to more recent hyundai recall #197. This is a problem with an oil leak on alternator, both of which have occurred on my hyundai veracruz. I had to have the issues corrected and parts replaced at considerable expense. So I filed a claim for reimbursement with hyundai back in january, 2021 -- case #17645814. This claim has been delayed excessively and my follow-up attempts to contact hyundai have been ignored!
