HYUNDAI VELOSTER 2013 car safety problem was reported on May 10, 2013.HYUNDAI VELOSTER 2013, manufactured by Hyundai Motor Company had a problem with STRUCTURE . ON FRIDAY MAY 10 I TOOK MY VELOSTER TO THE DEALER AS I WAS CONSIDERING A POSSIBLE TRADE IN. THE SALES MANAGER DID A FULL CHECK OF MY CAR AND TEST DROVE IT AS WELL IN AN EFFORT TO MAKE AN ACCEPTABLE OFFER FOR TRADE. MY CAR WAS IN PERFECT CONDITION WITH NO DAMAGE WHATSOEVER. AFTER DISCUSSING ALL THE DETAILS, I DECIDED NOT TO TRADE IN MY CAR. I LEFT AND AND DROVE TO A LOCAL THEATER. WHILE DRIVING I HEARD AN UNUSUAL NOISE AS IF SOMETHING HAD FALLEN/BLOWN OFF MY CAR. IT WAS DARK AND SINCE I DIDN'T SEE ANYTHING I FIGURED IT WAS SOMETHING ON THE ROAD. WELL WHEN I GOT TO THE THEATER (ABOUT 5 MILES AWAY) AND GOT OUT OF THE CAR, MY PASSENGER ADVISED ME THAT THE STRIP ON THE PASSENGER SIDE ROOF THAT IS NORMALLY PRESENT AS A CLIP-IN MECHANISM WAS MISSING. I CAN ONLY CONCLUDE THAT IT BLEW OFF WHILE I WAS DRIVING. I FEEL FOR THE PERSON BEHIND ME WHO EITHER GOT HIT BY IT OR HAD TO DO SOME EVASIVE MANEUVERING TO AVOID IMPACT. THIS COULD BE A VERY SERIOUS ISSUE, ESPECIALLY AT HIGHER SPEEDS. I DON'T KNOW IF ANYONE WAS INJURED OR NOT, BUT HYUNDAI NEEDS TO BE AWARE OF ITS POTENTIAL SERIOUS HAZARD. -THE DEALER WANTS ME TO PAY FOR REPLACEMENT/REPAIR OF A DEFECTIVE PART EVEN THOUGH I AM STILL UNDER MY BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY. I CAN ASSURE YOU THAT I WILL NOT BE PAYING TO HAVE IT REPLACED AS IT IS HYUNDAI'S RESPONSIBILITY. WITH LESS THAN 10000 MILES THERE IS NO EXCUSE FOR THIS TYPE OF ISSUE TO OCCUR. *TR.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 8450 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):KMHTC6AD3DU.

THE SPEEDOMETER AND TACHOMETER DIALS ARE BLACK WITH WHITE LETTERING AND DEEP RED NEEDLES TO POINT AT THE LETTERING. THAT DEEP RED ON A BLACK BACKGROUND IS ALMOST INVISIBLE. IF I SPEND TIME SEARCHING, I CAN FIND THE NEEDLE, BUT IT IS VERY UNSAFE TO TAKE ONE'S EYES OFF THE ROAD FOR THE LENGTH OF TIME IT TAKES TO FIND THE ALMOST INVISIBLE NEEDLE. AN ARGUMENT OF, "IF YOU CAN'T READ THE INSTRUMENTS, GET A DIFFERENT CAR," IS NOT REASONABLE BECAUSE THE CAR ONE IS DRIVING IS NOT ALWAYS ONE'S OWN CAR, SUCH AS IT MAY BE AN EMPLOYER'S CAR OR (THE WAY I DISCOVERED THIS PROBLEM) IT MAY BE A RENTAL CAR, AND THERE ARE MANY OTHER SCENARIOS WHERE ONE DID NOT CHOOSE THE CAR ONE HAS TO DRIVE. SINCE 5% TO 10% OF THE MALE POPULATION HAS THIS COLOR VISION DEFICIENCY, I CANNOT BELIEVE THAT HYUNDAI NEVER DISCOVERED THE PROBLEM, BUT CHOSE STYLING OVER SAFETY. I ALSO SUSPECT THIS PROBLEM IS NOT LIMITED TO HYUNDAI. *TR.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Hyundai Veloster 2013 problem was reported in LOS ANGELES, CA.

HYUNDAI VELOSTER 2013 Visibility/wiper Report #10547896

HYUNDAI VELOSTER 2013 car safety problem was reported on Oct 15, 2013.HYUNDAI VELOSTER 2013, manufactured by Hyundai Motor Company had a problem with VISIBILITY/WIPER . THE WINDSHIELD REAR-VIEW MIRROR DOES NOT DIM ADEQUATELY. THE REAR-VIEW MIRROR DOES NOT HAVE A MANUAL DIMMING LEVER, JUST A ROW OF BUTTONS ALONG THE BOTTOM FOR TELEPHONE, BLUETOOTH, ETC. HAVING DRIVEN THE CAR AT NIGHT, I THOUGHT IT DID NOT HAVE ANY MIRROR DIMMING, SO I STOPPED AT A HYUNDAI DEALER THE NEXT DAY AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE MIRROR HAS A PHOTOCELL THAT TELLS THE MIRROR WHETHER IT IS DAY OR NIGHT, AND THE MIRROR AUTOMATICALLY DIMS. I COVERED THE SENSOR AND THEY WERE CORRECT, BUT THE AMOUNT OF DIMMING IS FAR FROM ADEQUATE--SUCH THAT WHEN I DROVE THE CAR AT NIGHT, I DID NOT REALIZE THERE WAS ANY DIMMING AT ALL. I HAD TO RE-AIM THE MIRROR SO I COULD NOT SEE THE HEADLIGHTS OF THE CAR BEHIND ME. SUCH RE-AIMING OF THE MIRROR CANCELS MOST OF THE SAFETY BENEFITS OF HAVING A REAR-VIEW MIRROR. *TR.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Hyundai Veloster 2013 problem was reported in LOS ANGELES, CA.

I WAS DRIVING AT APPROX 70MPH, AND THE SUNROOF WAS CLOSED. ALL OTHER WINDOWS WERE CLOSED AS WELL. THERE WERE NO OTHER VEHICLES IN FRONT OF ME. THE SUNROOF IMPLODED INTO THE CAR, COVERING ME AND THE INTERIOR OF THE VEHICLE WITH GLASS. THANKFULLY, I WAS WEARING SUNGLASSES WHICH KEPT THE GLASS OUT OF MY EYES.

I CALLED A DEALER AND TOOK THE CAR IN IMMEDIATELY, MISSING THE FIRST PART OF MY SHIFT AT WORK. I WAS TOLD THEY HAD NEVER HEARD OF THIS HAPPENING, BUT IT WOULD BE COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY. A NEW SUNROOF WAS INSTALLED. TODAY, 11/14/13, WHILE DRIVING, I NOW NOTICE A "CRACKLING" SOUND FROM THE ROOF WHILE DRIVING. I AM AFRAID THE IMPLOSION IS GOING TO HAPPEN AGAIN!

WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY 83 IN PHARR, TX, I HEARD A LOUD EXPLOSION SUDDENLY AND WIND HOWLING; I IMMEDIATELY SET MY HAZARDS TO ALERT THE VEHICLES NEAR ME AS I THOUGHT I WAS IN A WRECK. I LOOKED UP TO DISCOVER THAT MY PANORAMIC SUNROOF HAD EXPLODED AND SHARDS OF GLASS WERE FLYING BOTH BEHIND MY VEHICLE AND INSIDE MY VEHICLE. I ENDED UP WITH MINOR CUTS AND SCRAPES AS A RESULT. I CALLED HYUNDAI, BUT THEY STATED THAT THIS VEHICLE WAS NOT LIKELY PART OF AN EARLIER RECALL IN 2013 FOR SHATTERING PANORAMIC SUNROOFS. FOR THE EXTENT OF DAMAGE DONE, THERE IS NO POSSIBLE WAY I COULDN'T HAVE HEARD A ROCK OF THAT SIZE HIT MY VEHICLE DIRECTLY ON MY SUNROOF STRONG ENOUGH TO SMASH THROUGH THE LAYERS OF MY SUNROOF AND POP THE FRAME OUT OF PLACE. LUCKILY, THIS DIDN'T RESULT IN A COLLISION, BUT THIS RECALL NEEDS A SECOND LOOK AT EXPANSION- WHAT HAPPENED IS UNACCEPTABLE. THE DEALERSHIP IS IN PROCESS OF REPLACING THE SUNROOF BUT I'M CONCERNED THE UNDERLYING PROBLEM IS BEING MISSED. *TR.1 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 32000 miles.

THIS INCIDENT HAPPENED TWICE, I WAS DRIVING TO WV FROM NC WITH 14356 MILES ON MY BRAND NEW CAR HYUNDAI VELOSTER TURBO WHICH COMES WITH KUMHO KH25 215/40/R18 TIRES AND UPON ARRIVAL I NOTICED A BUBBLE IN THE SIDEWALL OF MY RIGHT FRONT TIRE, SO I GOT IT INSPECTED BEFORE I HEADED BACK AND WAS INFORMED THAT IT SHOULD BE REPLACED IMMEDIATELY. SO AFTER THE DRIVE BACK TO NC I REPLACED BOTH FRONT TIRES AND FORGOT TO KEEP THE TIRE WITH THE BUBBLE. IN JANUARY 12 2014 I NOTICED THAT MY DRIVER SIDE REAR TIRE HAD ALSO DEVELOPED A BUBBLE AT 15467 MILES I HAD TO REPLACE BOTH REAR TIRES, BUT I KEPT THE TIRE THAT DID HAVE A BUBBLE AND CONTACTED KUMHO AS IT WAS NOT A COINCIDENCE AND FOUND THAT THE TIRE HAD A PUNCTURE ON TOP OF THE BEAD OF THE TIRE RIGHT WHERE THE BUBBLE ON THE SIDEWALL WAS. WHEN I BROUGHT IT TO DISCOUNT TIRE TO BE INSPECTED FOR THE WARRANTY CLAIM. I WAS INFORMED THAT THE CLAIM HAD BEEN CLOSED BEFORE THEY COULD SEND THEIR FINDINGS TO KUMHO, I WAS ALSO INFORMED THAT IT WAS BLAMED ON ME HITTING A POTHOLE SIGHT UNSEEN! I DID SOME REASEARCH AND FOUND NUMEROUS CLAIMS WITH THIS TIRE OF BLOWOUTS, SIDEWALL CRACKING, BUBBLES ETC. AS WELL AS PEOPLE CONTACTING KUMHO ON FACEBOOK DUE TO BUBBLES AND "HELPING THEM OUT " ONLY LATER TO SEE THAT THEY WERE ALSO BLAMED FOR THE FAULTY TIRES. THESE TIRES SHOULD BE TAKEN OFF THE MARKET THEY ARE A SAFETY HAZARD! I AM WILLING TO SEND THE AFFECTED TIRE IN AS EVIDENCE. *TR.Mileage was 14300 miles.

WHEN DRIVING THE VEHICLE THE BACK WANTS TO STEP OUT OF LINE WHEN GOING OVER BUMPS, THIS IS MORE PRONOUNCED WHEN GOING AROUND A CURVE. ALSO WHEN THE VEHICLE HITS A PATCH OF SNOW, DURING THE TRANSITION ON TO THE SNOW AND OFF THE CAR FEELS LIKE THE ENDS WANT TO SWITCH PLACES. IF ONE REAR TIRE TRANSITIONS ONTO SNOW OR ICE THE ENTIRE REAR OF THE CAR WANTS TO TRAVEL THAT DIRECTION, IT ALSO DOES THIS WHEN CROSSING ASPHALT PATCHES. IT IS MORE PRONOUNCED ON ROADS WITH VERTICAL GROOVING IN THE CONCRETE. THERE HAVE BEEN TIME WHEN IN LIGHT SNOW CONDITIONS I HAVE HAD TO GO ABOUT 35-40 MPH JUST TO KEEP THE CAR STRAIGHT AND IN MY LANE. BY DOING SO I BECAME A ROLLING ROADBLOCK, AS THE OTHER TRAFFIC DID NOT HAVE THE SAME ISSUE AS I DID. I DID GO THROUGH A BBB CASE WITH THE VEHICLE, BUT NEITHER TIME WERE THE ROAD CONDITIONS CONDUCIVE TO THIS ISSUE, AND PER HYUNDAI EVERYTHING IS SET TO FACTORY SPECS(WHICH I DO NOT DOUBT).

BY DOING SO I BECAME A ROLLING ROADBLOCK, AS THE OTHER TRAFFIC DID NOT HAVE THE SAME ISSUE AS I DID. I DID GO THROUGH A BBB CASE WITH THE VEHICLE, BUT NEITHER TIME WERE THE ROAD CONDITIONS CONDUCIVE TO THIS ISSUE, AND PER HYUNDAI EVERYTHING IS SET TO FACTORY SPECS(WHICH I DO NOT DOUBT). THERE IS AN INHERENT DESIGN FLAW WITH THE REAR SUSPENSION OF THIS VEHICLE AND IF SOMETHING IS NOT DONE, LIVES MAY BE LOST..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 19000 miles. Hyundai Veloster 2013 problem was reported in PORT WASHINGTON, WI. Vehicle was not using ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. Vehicle was not using Cruise Control. VEHICLE SPEED: 65 mph.
