When driving, if you encounter even a small bump in the road, the car jumps as if it were a train jumping the tracks and getting back on track. If it's raining, it feels as though the vehicle is sliding across the road. (Finally, realizing that I WAS sliding across the road).

The air bag light came on for the front passenger seat. I took it to Grayson Hyundai & they tried to get part #88840-3L500-J9 which is the latch right front buckle assembly. I was told there was no part available because my car is a 2006 & manufactures are only required to carry parts for 10…
The air bag light came on for the front passenger seat. I took it to Grayson Hyundai & they tried to get part #88840-3L500-J9 which is the latch right front buckle assembly. I was told there was no part available because my car is a 2006 & manufactures are only required to carry parts for 10 years. I was also told if the air bags worried me to trade cars. I would think the seat belt buckle for a safety feature like the air bag would have to always be available. I have owned this car since 2006, it only has 26,600 miles on it. It has always been garage kept & literally looks like a new one EXCEPT I have NO air bags. Also, today I was told part #88840-3L500-J9 is on a National Parts List, whatever that means. Surely this has happened to someone else. I just decided to report it.

The vehicle has a random, chronic no start issue. Everything appears to be working normally, and you will turn the key with no crank. All the dashboard lights work, everything is as normal except it wont turn over. The dealer will not help. They refuse to even attempt replacing parts with my approval, just to try to rule things out. Due to my own investigation into the problem, we have successfully replaced the transmission inhibitor switch twice with good results. That switch will not allow the engine to crank if the car thinks the transmission is not in park. The first time the repair worked for 1 year, and the second time 6-8 months. I'm having the problem again, not sure where to turn for help. Dealer is useless, local shops have no better ideas than I do.

Without warning, my car lost power as I was driving on the interstate. I started changing lanes to get over to the shoulder, and before I got to the shoulder smoke began to come out of the hood then flames started. I was able to pull over and get myself and my special needs son out of the car with the help of others who saw the flames and also pulled over. 911 was called and police and fire came. The firefighters put out my engine fire with their chemical suppressants. My car does not have an active recall on it, but other makes and models with this same engine do, so I never receivedany warming about this problem happening with my same engine. I have always had it serviced at the dealership. This was very traumatic.

Seat: in august 2019, while my son was driving my car with both hands on the steering wheel and me in the front passenger seat on a city street the driver seat back started to fold forward to the point my son was screaming and scared not knowing what was happening he had to make an abrupt exit off the road into a parking lot we were passing. Once safely parked he pulled the latch on the side that controls the seat back and made the seat go back into place. Now as of may 2020, the seat will only go backwards and IS stuck in that position and will not go forward at all. suspension: I have had this car since the beginning of april 2014, I have had the suspension done I know at a minimum of 5 times to date, the last being 7/2/2020 and currently being told it needs to be fixed again!!!!!! This IS ridiculous!!! engine: the check engine alert comes on every time I cut the car on for the last 2 years or so. Each time it was taken to the mechanic and the error code came up the same so I paid to get the issue fixed to no avail. The check engine alert continues to come on and I was told it IS a sensor malfunction. air bag icon: this has been on for the past year and I was told yet again that it IS a sensor malfunction.

How many people have to be injured before hyundai figures out their non-airbag deployment issues? 57 complaints on nhtsa for the 2006 azera air bags, and I was just in a hard side t-bone collision just in front of the driver's door that broke my collar bone, and not one air bag deployed. I was proceeding through a 4 way intersection when my light turned green, and a car to my left was accelerating through the red light. I bought the car brand new, and completed all issued recalls. When my air bag light kept coming on three years ago, I was finally told it was the driver side seat belt tension sensor, which was not covered by a recall, only the passenger side had the recall, so I spent over $600 to have it fixed, and the error light went out. I opened a case with hyundai to inform them I was in a side impact accident and no air bags deployed. When they called to follow up, they did not seem interested in figuring out the problem, said I never brought the vehicle back for a follow up, and asked me what my agenda was? I had no agenda at the time, and was even looking to purchase a G90, but I guess now it IS to let some hyundai owners know their could be air bag problems.

Any time I let my foot off the gas the car dashboard lights dim, the radio loses volume, and the headlights dim. This IS all very noticable. Recently the car would sometimes feel as though the brakes had been stomped on. When this happens I get and ABS system failure alert on the dashboard and my check engine light turns on. A couple of times this happened it has completely shut off the engine. Because it turned off I didn't have power steering, so I had to pull over and restart my engine. this happens as I'm driving, I noticed it happens when it shifts down gears. Sometimes when I accelerate and the car shift gears up it can happen as well. I found a notice about a recall on these cars for the ABS module system issue. Recall #172.

I took my 2006 azera to the dealership when I received a recall notice for a possible srs malfunction (10v007000). After a year or so the srs light came on intermittently but was mostly off. Starting this week (3/15/2019) the srs light has stayed on and won't go off. Based on what I have read, this IS a common problem for azera owners. I believe a second recall IS necessary since the first one did not solve the problem for very long.

Hyundai is conducting the recall to remedy a defect involving internal corrosion of the rear sub frame that may lead to separation of the rear upper/lower control arm(s) at their respective mounting points and/or separation of the axle from the transaxle where they meet.This could result in a loss of vehicle control and/or vehicle disablement which may increase the risk of a vehicle crash.In response to NHTSA?s Information Request (IR) letter, Hyundai stated the Azera vehicles utilizes the identical cross member and upper/lower rear control arm components as the subject (Sonata) vehicles.In analysis of both Vehicle Owner Questionnaire (VOQ) data submitted to the Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) and consumer complaint data submitted to Hyundai, ODI identified 19 non-duplicative reports alleging excessive corrosion of the rear sub frame. All of the complaint vehicles were either originally sold or registered at the time of the incident in one of the salt belt states.Of these 19 reports, 9 alleged either a suspension component separation or a fracture of the vehicle's rear cross member assembly.Similarly, ODI identified 8 warranty claims of rear sub frame replacement in data submitted by Hyundai due to excessive corrosion, all of which involved vehicles originally sold or operated in a salt belt state. Based on Hyundai's decision to conduct a safety recall, (13V-354) this investigation is closed.The VOQs cited above can be viewed at www-odi.nhtsa.dot.gov/owners/SearchNHTSAID under the following identification numbers: 10535115, 10534110, 10525976, 10524726, 10521520, 10508368, 10505463, 10490073, 10486752, 10486435, 1048354, 10473922, and 10437887.
