I own a 2006 hyundai azera 4 door.the front headlamps do not reflect out sufficiently.the driver side lamps reflect down and create a severe blind spotand extremely poor visibility. Itook vehicle to a local hyundaidealer and was told nothing can be done to correct this safety hazardous.i went on line yesterday and discoverd there is a recall for this problemwhat can i do to have this problem with my vehicle repaired?also, i saw my model vehicle has been recalled for a malfunctioning stop lamp switch.and,the wiring harness for the right front seat belt tension sensor has a defect which can prevent the air bag from deploying in the event of a crash.how do i get these defects on my auto corrected?
The contact owned a 2006 hyundai azera. While driving 30 mph, the vehicle struck a block of ice and the contact lost control of the vehicle. As a result, the vehicle skid across the intersection, crashed into a tree head on, and landed in a frozen retention pond. The seat belt was tithing across the contact's chest causing her to bleed. The contact required medical attention. A police report was filed. The vehicle was towed to an independent tow lot. The vehicle was destroyed. In addition, the air bags failed to deploy. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 71,400.
A red light warning on air bags came on while traveling.when the problem was checked by a hyundai dealer, they reported that the seat pods were shorted out and that the seat pods needed replacement at a cost of over $1,600.the car mileage was 53,000.the ocs system is not working.i contacted hyundai about the problem and they sent a contract person to inspect the problem.he indicated that he thought that the air bag system was working, but could not explain why the warning light was on, nor would he comment about the dealers finding.i returned to the dealer and they confirmed that the ocs system was not working due to the seat pod malfunction.i contacted hyundai again with their dealers finding and requested that hyundai replace the part and i would pay the labor cost.they replied that their position that the ocs system was "operating accordingto design" and that they would not replace the seat pods.it is apparent that this another example of hyundai"s air bag problems, but they refuse to acknowledge the problemor replace the faulty part.this is a serious safety problem for me and my family.i have kept all correspondence with hyundai about the problem.
The air bag lights on driver's side and passenger side stay on to let you know the air bags do not work. We have already been through the process of replacing the tension sensor wiring harness clip.the problem has manifested itself again. I have talked to the manufacturer and they will not offer any help or solutions since the items were replaced under the earlier recall. I do not believe it is my responsibility to replace the defective parts at an estimated cost of $408.hyundai told me to mail in the receipt once the item is repaired and they might consider making some sort of "goodwill" reimbursement. I am frustrated with their response and disappointed at how they have responded to a known defect.
Air bag warning light(s) always on when no one is sitting in front passenger seat.note: no accident has happened. This car was supposedly fixed under an earlier recall (hyundai 094).
Air bag lightis always on.
Failure of passenger side front seat belt assemble effecting airbags.
Airbag did not deplore until after the car fully stopped but the seat belt on the drivers side tighten continuously until i got a bleed injury inside my right breast the righting stopped only after i was abke to release it then afterwards the airbag deplored only in the drivers side no other airbags came out during this accident.
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.
Received a letter from hyundai in 2010 advising of damage to the right front seat belt sensor wiring which if becomes damaged will cause the air bag warning light to illuminate. If this problem persists the passenger air bag will not deploy in a crash.on 07/21/2010 this was supposedly fixed by the dealership.on 01/26/12 the air bag warning illuminated i returned to the dealership and was told that the repair would be my responsibility as it had already been repaired.on o4/12/12 i returned to the dealership to have the repair made and was then told the the problem was in was an internal short in the passengerseat track.hyundai is claiming no responsibility for the repair and stated that it is my problem. I feel that this is adeterioation of the initial recall and shoud be repaired by hyundai since the part was defective.
Air bag light stays on in the dash (driver side). It will not go off.i was told that if that light stays on, my air bags are shut off and will not deploy if there is an accident.i was told that there was a class action suit concerning the airbags, but was told that the suit was only for the passenger side lights.i am told one thing by the dealer concerning the airbags (automax hyundai of killeen (254-699-2629), and another by the hyundai motor america (case # 6050686 telephone 1-877-277-0012).i am driving around now with no functional air bags, and this to me is a serious highway safety factorall i want is for my air bags to become functional again and me not having to pay for something that is supposed to be good for over 100,000 miles according to the american safety board.thanking you in advance for your assistance, because i am sure not getting it from hyundai or the dealer.again thank you.

Air bag light stays on.do not know if air bags will deploycar has been at dealership for over 3 weeks.recall notice received about 2 weeks ago, yet they are unable to get part.
My 2006 hyundai azera has been to the dealership no less than 12 times, before and after a pertinent recall repair, for an issue where the "passenger airbag off" warning light is illuminated despite passengers of various heights and weights being seated in the passenger seat.my nearest hyundai dealership has failed to correct this critical safety issue on countless occasions, including replacing the entire passenger seat bottom.the last few attempted repairs consisted of "reprogramming" the sensors in the passenger seat; resetting the error code and sending me away in a vehicle with defective 'advanced airbags' which do not meet the nhtsas regulatory definition.the issue is present in a majority of hyundai models that use their proprietary ocs system, but narrowly-applied settlements of litigation have prevented this from evolving into a class settlement, and greatly reduced the ability of consumers to have their problems addressed.vehicle owners that don't qualify under the recent (july 28, 2012) santa fe recall are again being denied the federally mandated requirement of a functional advanced airbag system.

Number: 09v497000 (air bags , seat belts) and took the vehicle to the dealer for recall service however, the dealer advised that the recall repair could not be honored.

2006 hyundai azera. Consumer writes in regards to vehicle air bag light illuminating. The consumer was informed the vehicle was no longer under warranty and the repair cost could be up to $1,000.
The problem started in 2008. The air bag light warning light came on and we took it to the dealer. They replaced the passenger seat. Less than 6 months later the warning light came on and this time they replaced a wiring harness. A few months later we received a recall notice on this same problem. This last incident was in 8/2010. Now it is on again and they refuse to repair it under any kind of warranty. I feel this a component of the safety system and continuing failures of the same part should call for additional recalls.

I took my vehicle in to be repaired for the recall for the air bag sensor. Three months later the light came on again and i took it back to have it evaluated and now they are saying that it the seat belt buckle pre tensioner sensor. I said to them that it was repaired already and they said that it was not . Through further investigation i found on a web site from the hyundai dealer for campaign 094 that when repairing the wiring harness that they are to look at the sensor as well and fix at that time and submit a claim for this. Now they are wanting to charge me for something that should have been repaired in the beginning.
The air bag light in the instrument cluster lighted and from time to time was off but has been lighted since approximately 145,700 miles, about two years 3 months.in dealer and independent mechanics tests the code indicated that the seat belt sensor is malfunctioning and that the side impact air bag located in the right front seat back may be inoperative. This indicator light is currently lighted. Hyundai provided an examination of the front right airbag located in the right dash. It was indicated to be functional.in queries to hyundai i have been told that the front airbag was repaired according to the recall requirement. Is the recall correction only valid for one correction?
I own a 2006 hyundai azera.the air bag warning light was illuminated in the instrument panel.took it to the dealer may 24, 2013, and was told that the passenger seat sensor needed to be replaced and would cost $500.if i wanted this repaired, they would have to order the part and i was to call them and let them know.afterward, i looked on your web site and found that there is a recall.call the dealer and found out that i had the recall done april 17, 2010, and would have to pay for it to be repaired again.it seems to me that hyundai did a temporary fix for this problem. Since consumers have had this problem to recur after the fix, it is obvious that this is just a band aid.the fix doesn't even last five years.because this will not allow the air bag to deploy, this is a safety issue and hyundai should repair the sensor for as long as the original owner owns the vehicle without charge.
Over past approximately 4 1/2 years, the airbag light has been on 7 or 8 times. Mileage ~136k, 151k 183k,191k & 203.6k. The seat belt pre tensioners and complete seat belts replaced 4-6 times and the airbag control module once. The driver's seatbelt pretensioner was successfully repaired ~august 8, 2016. A company agent inspected the functioning of the passenger air bag [ocs] august 26, 2013.today 2-2-2017 the seatbelt light came on. My mechanic determined the code was b1382 side curtain airbag -high resistance.i have complete records of the maintenance and repair of this vehicle which i can supply upon request.
I have an 06 hyundai azera and there was a recall made back in 2013 for the passenger seat wiring hireness. The defect would cause the airbag not to deploy. Would i be able to get this defect fixed now? i did not own the vehicle back in 2013, as i did not own it until may of 2015. It is showing the signs of the defect. The air bag light is on and it is throwing error codes b1489&b1495, which is for the passenger occuputant system. I also have this noise like something is loose in the suspension. Every little bump causes a rattling noise. I can not tell if it is the front or back, but i am assuming it is the back since there was a recall on this as well, plus i have replaced all front end parts. And the noise still exists.

Air bag lights on driver's side and passenger side stay on to let you know the air bags do not work.we have already been through the process of replacing the tension sensor wiring harness clip and we still have the problem.we have talked to the manufacturer and highway safety and they will not offer any help or solutions.we do not feel it is our responsibility to replace the air bags at a high cost when they have never been used, yet they will not work in the event of an accident.we are frustrated with how we have been treated and are shocked at how irresponsible hyundai is.we will never buy another vehicle from them again.still waiting for them to acknowledge this problem and do the right thing!.

Air bag light goes on when two adults are in front seats. Red airbag light on driver's side and "airbag off" light on passenger side. After three attempts dealer cannot fix problem. Contacted hyundai factory rep without results.
The airbags on this car did not deploy after a narrowly avoided head on collision which resulted in driver side impact on the front engine side panel and driver door.the side curtains nor the airbags in the dash and steering column did not deploy resulting in belk did passengers coming in contact with steering column and dash of the knees and chest up both occupants.the impact at the front left tire was forceful enough to cause the tire to tuck up under itself indicating the side air curtains could have prevented contact with the side of the car in addition to the contact described with the chest and knees. Both occupants were transported by ambulance to the emergency room where they were evaluated.
Air bag light on...vehicle taken to dealer and i was told that pretensioner passenger side seat belt failed. Recall compllied with on passenger side seat belt 2010.cost to fix $573. Not repaired yet. I have complained hyundai of america.
Sensor fails for seatbelt/airbags resulting in ?????
Air bag light (dash) comes on and stays on. Passenger air bag light does not indicate any fault. Code 1495.
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.
Split dashboard cover on 2006 hyundai azera. Started to split at 58k miles and a second split has developed at 74k miles. Splits are just above the airbag.
Car was traveling at approx. 18 mph. I applied brakes to make a left turn.when i pressed on the brakes, the car accelerated, and the brakes began stiff and would not stop the car.the car ran into a closed overhead double garage door, continued thru the garage and hit the brick wall on the back of the garage. The airbags did not deploy. I sustained lacerations and bruises. The car was deemed a total loss by the insurance company.hyundai had the car inspected by an independent third party, and no problems were noted.hyundai has not shared the results of the investigation with us.we have since used our own third party to test the car and the abs and esc warning lights remain on indicating there is a problem with both systems.
I went to jim ellis (hyundai) with "passenger airbag off" showing up intermittently when passenger is seated.when i got the car back and looked the next day that warning was there and also a red indicator was now showing in the dash.on 5/7/14 i went back and then was told there is no passenger airbag problem it is a driver airbag problem. I cannot accept that unless the car's indicator is wrong. Furthermore i pointed out to them about a recall for an ocs problem. They said there is no recall outstanding for this model that was fixed since 2010. I then called hyundai corporate and upon checking my vin they're saying yes there is a recall.let the record show that the dealer viz. Jim ellis doesn't know of their own recall and do not want to fix a problem without me paying them. Meanwhile we have a safety hazard on the car.i am aware that you know of 1 recall whereby there is clip to be put on but please be aware that there is yet another similar problem to be fixed.

We have a safety issue with our 2006 hyundai azera limited.the front passenger airbag system that features an occupant classification system or ocs is not working.we have advised our dealership of the problem for almost a year and have been told the system works as designed.when my wife sits in the car's front seat (her weight is 137 pounds) with or without the engine on and buckles in, the dashboard airbag light below the speedometer stays lit and a middle console indicator says, "passenger airbag off."to make the system function properly we have had to place the transmission in park and turn off the engine.once restarted, the two front passenger airbag indicator lights go off and the front airbag system works normally.the service manager at our hyundai dealership in huntsville, al said that the system is operating normally if the dashboard indicator lights reset after we restart the car.all previous diagnostic tests by the dealership have found zero errors in the system.on 14 june 2008, we started our car in our garage and both the dashboard and center console indicator lights remained on.we turned off our car's engine and restarted it 5 times to get the system to reset without success.my wife sat in the back seat for safety.the front airbag system would not reset after multiple stops during the day.we brought the car to our hyundai dealer on 16 june and service personnel are still diagnosing it.i called hyundai's recall center to see if our azera's front ocs airbag is similar to the 2006 to 2008 hyundai sonata ocs recall (#08v161000) and was told to contact my dealer.when i relayed this information to our hyundai dealership's service manager he said that hyundai had not informed him of any problem.this is a serious safety concern and if the 2 systems are similar then the sonata ocs recall should be extended to the azera model too.

The back window shade does not work when placing the car in reverse or in the drive mode the motor operating the shade makes a noise until i have driven the car for a few minutes. The shade does not operate according to the car manual. This problem should warrant a recall on the vehicle.

The problem does not happen if you are on the highway going about 60+ mph. I've brought my car into 3 dealerships. The 1st dealer said it was the battery harness which they changed and didn't solve the problem. They also wanted to sell me a new battery. The 2nd one said they'll never find the problem and save my money and take my wife out to lunch or trade the car in, and the 3rd dealer said they heard about the problem and fixed it once but can't remember how. The problem is a safety hazard and hyundai should find a fix.

I get a lot of water through the firewall and trunk .when i use my turn signal my running lights go out and my headlights go dim and i have no control overmy lights abs warning light comes on every thing electrical goes haywire.pleas help me this happens all day every time i get on theroad
2006 hyundai azera limited i just purchased has a headlight problem.the headlights go out at any time for two to threeseconds, then come back on.usually this occurs when coming to a stop, but not always.maybe this is the reason the previous owner sold the car.we called the local dealer and were told it was a problem they haven't found a solution to yet, and the dealer at three other azera owners with the same problem.the dealer said there is a voltage drop in the charging system, and it is more noticeable at night when the headlights are on. I have noticed the voltage drop during the day also by seeing the speedometer lights dim. This is so annoying, and is a safety issue.could even become a problem of road rage if my headlights flash on and off at an irate driver in front of me. I can't believe there is no solution!
Electrical gremlins are everywhere in my 2006 hyundai azera limited.there are so many electrical issues with my car i know it is just a matter of time and a serious safety problem will arise while driving. This model should be recalled until the computer/electrical issues are fixed. There is a real pattern here with electrical and computer problems that could result in people dying if they haven't already.all of these issues came on very slowly over time and seamed minor at first. Now i am truly afraid when driving this vehicle. I bought this vehicle new and i had planned on this being my last car. Now i am retired and can't afford to buy another one.1. Starting problems - car occasionally won't start no ignition noise or clicking at all. I wiggle the shifter around and eventually it will start.2. Radio - the radio is always left on when turning off the ignition. Sometimes it automatically goes on when starting. But most times it will not go on until i turn it off and on again. Then the radio works fine until the next time the car is started.3. Rear shade - the rear window shade stopped working. Only made a grinding noise. I was able to get it into the down position. I have hit the control by the shifter and the grinding starts up. Eventually it stops.4. Heater - the heater controls just recently stopped working properly. The heat worked intermittently. Now only cool air or slight amount of heat blows no matter how high the temperature setting is.5. Door and trunk locks - when locking doors with the key fob the passenger door and the trunk occasionally don't work. When i use the interior lock switch or manually lock the door they will lock properly.6. Driver side chair heat - the back of the seat no longer heats up. The seat cushion still heats up. The passenger side works fine.
While driving at night the headlights dim drastically while the car is downshifting while slowing to a stop.each time the car downshifts the lights dim.i have taken it in multiple times to the dealership and even shown them the tsb pertaining to this issue and they have yet to fix this issue.every time i take it in to the dealership there is some excuse why it is happening and it generally centers around supposed corrosion on the battery terminals or i need my battery replaced.after cleaning terminals, replacing battery, and whatever else they suggested, the headlights still dim.they refuse to do the fix as described in the tsb and say that everything checks out fine and there is no need to replace anything, except the battery which didn't fix the problem.the first time i brought this up was in 2008 and multiple time per year since with no resolution.it keeps getting worse every year with the amount of strain on the system and aging of the vehicle.i fear that something or someone is going to dart out in front of me when this is happening and i won't be able to react in time since my headlights are not projecting their full distance when this happens.

Driving 2006 hyundai azetraon i-95 on feb 10, 2018 @10:30 pmall dash lights beginning with abs brakes went ballistic and car began to buck like a bronco, then began to drive car 2 to 3 lanes on right lane to exit in deerfield at sw 10th st on an incline ramp in which brakes were failing and steering wheel not working to maneuver a turn.had to forcefully turn steering wheel hard to right to avoid causing car to crash or harming others on road (which caused extreme discomfort on shoulder, elbow, wrist and hand today) and engine turned off which car coasted downhill and made first right turn coasted a few feet and car stopped.when car was enabled onto flat bed by tow co, noticed red fluid on ground which could be transmission or gasoline???everything happened so quickly; very scared for our lives. Didn't sleep well and uneasy todayi also notified hyundai today @1-800-633-5151 and gave a report in which a case worker will notify us in 3 to 5 business days, confirmation # 11007142
Several weeks ago i took my car to the hyundai dealer's service department for warranty work.over the last few months, while parked and unattended, the back of the driver's seat, on its own, readjusted itself all the way forward. This happened almost daily. The dealer said everything looked ok and they could not determine a cause.on 9/12/11 i sat in the driver's seat as i was preparing to leave work, and the seat back readjusted itself with me in it (car had not yet been started).it pushed me forward and up against the steering wheel.i was unable to stop the movement or readjust the back until the seat back completed its trek all the way forward.after the first time, i readjusted the seat and starteddriving on the bwi parkway at 55 mph when the seat back did it again, and again, and again.i headed straight for the dealer and during the 15 +/- miles to the dealer, i was compressed against the steering wheel about 20 more times.i am 6 feet tall and have long legs, and during the times i was driving and compressed against the steering wheel, it was extremely difficult to move my foot from the accelerator to the brake.as a result, as soon as i would feel the seat start to move forward, i had to pull over to the shoulder of the parkway until the seat stopped and i could readjust the back.thankfully, this time when i arrived at the service department, the seat compressed the service attendant while he was sitting in my car, so he could see that there is a problem! several months ago when i first noticed the back readjusting on its own, i googled the problem and discovered that this issue with azeras has been ongoing for quite some time. I hope that it will not take someone getting seriously hurt or killed before something is done to make huyndai acknowledge the problem. They think it is a switch. We will see!
Tried unlocking the door with the remote,didn't work,used the key to unlock the door,inside lights didn't come on. When i put the key in the ignition,nothing happened,no lights,no clicking,no nothing..like the whole car just completely shut down,no type of power.
Headlights do not properly illuminate the roadway.this is a safety hazard.i almost hit a pedestrian while driving on a dimly lit road. I complained to my dealer and was advised that there was nothing they could do.the dealer claims that the lights are working in accordance with the manufactures specifications. If this is true...the manufacturer should be forced to adjust these standards before a tragedy occurs.there have been two other instances where this condition nearly caused me to have an accident.
The contact owns a 2006 hyundai azera. While driving 35 mph, the headlights malfunctioned and dimmed without warning. Also, the vehicle speed reduced independently on more than one occasion and the abs failure indicator illuminated without warning. An independent mechanic replaced the alternator, but the failures recurred. Kennesaw hyundai in kennesaw, georgia was contacted about the series of failures and stated that the failures corrected themselves. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue. The failure mileage was 80,000.
I was at a stop light and it turned green so i went and in the middle of me turning it died and started back up. It does this to me alot and i have had it in the shop they cant find anything wrong. I also have a problem with the lights dimming everytime i decrease speed and my rpms drop dramatically low.
The car caught fire in the inside and the police says it was electrical but we haven't received any notification are recall.
The contact owns a 2006 hyundai azera. The contact was driving 35 mph when both headlights began to dim abnormally.

Trip computer returns to 00 without touching reset button, door lock sometimes does not open with transmitter.trunk sometimes does not open with transmitter or interior trunk release.. Radio cuts off intermittently.instrument panel light flickers, and engine will stall for an instant. Back window screen goes up and down by itself.air conditioner came on without my pushing button. Warning messages will appear for few seconds "check engine", "abs failure", etc. Twice took car to hyundai service department.told they cannot fix anything unless these events are happening when i bring in car. Aside from these fairly minor problems, the steering wheel locked or power steering failed while driving..the service department did find an oil leak and replaced hose.replaced fuel level sender and driver door module. But the electric problems continue..i am worried that electric and steering problems will cause a serious accident.
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.
The contact owns a 2006 hyundai azera. While the contact was driving approximately 35 mph there was an electrical system failure. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer on two separate occasions for the identical failure. The service repairs performed on the vehicle were at different times which consist of a fuse and wiring replacement. The failure continued after the fuse replacement. The technician advised the contact to using the cell phone adapter in the vehicle which could possibly contribute to the failure. The failure mileage was 20,000. The current mileage was 34,000.
Case number 3180238.i'm done with the car but i don't want to trade a vehicle which might cause and accident and get someone hurt or worse.
While driving on us 95 at night my engine stopped runing. I was traving at 65 mph.at the time. The car was towed and later inspected. The inspection revealed that alternator had failed because oil had leaked from the valve cover gaskets directly onto the alternator which caused it to fail. This failure also affected the power steering & my lights as well . I was fortunate that my car was not struck as the traffic was heavy. .
While driving the car at various speeds the esc light will come on and the dash will read "esc off" and the car will not function;looses all power. No steering control, no radio, no lights, no brakes, the car looses all functioning ability. I have to pull off the road, turn the switch off, wait 5 to 10 minutes and then the car will start and run until it happens again. No pattern to this problem. This car has had multiple electrical problems since we purchased it in 2008. Harmonic balancer replaced, start sensor replaced, cam sensor replaced, the shifter will not work without pushing in the safety release, and the lights cut on/off all the time. Very unsafe and unreliable vehicle.

When i started the vehicle when it was cold or when it had less than a half a tank in gas the check engine light and esc light would come on. I wouldn't be able to drive the vehicle. It was as if the vehicle was in neutral. I would push the gas pedal and nothing, it would not rev. This has now happened on several occasions. I would have to continue to turn off and on the vehicle until the esc light would turn off and the car would rev on it own.
Light for brakes, abs, eco are on brakes was done
Airbag did not deplore until after the car fully stopped but the seat belt on the drivers side tighten continuously until i got a bleed injury inside my right breast the righting stopped only after i was abke to release it then afterwards the airbag deplored only in the drivers side no other airbags came out during this accident.
Heard on tv about the recall about the motor and brakes. Noone has contacted me about this recall.
The engine blew at 81,000 miles in a well maintained vehicleno warning lights ever came on.hyundai corp and customer service took no ownership for this problem.no choice but to purchase a refurbished engine.the vehicle had been in for routine service 2 weeks earlier and no problems detected.very unhappy with this product and the last of responsibility by hyundai corp.

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.
At 12:50 am on 2/17/2019 when the car was pulled over on the w. Bound 72nd st exit ramp of i-80 in omaha, ne the engine started on fire. The car was pulled over because it was chugging on the interstate highway and ramp. The weather was snowing and there were police on duty due to other resons so the police saw the fire, called the fire dep't and had the car taken to the pollice impound lot. My insurance co. Inspected the car and declared the car a total loss. The vin was checked afterwards and this car has a history of electrical engine shorts causing fires and i was not notified.
Intermittent starting problems with 2006 hyundai azera.approximately every 20 instances, the car doesn't start.dealer service center checked the auto and indicated that they couldn't recreate the problem.edmunds website identifies several complaints of the same problem in 2006 hyundai azera.this could be classified as a safety concern when exposed to late night crime with a disabled auto.

In 2010 the rear sun screen would bind when you tried to retract it, hyundai replaced the part since it was still under warranty. It was approx. 2 months later the same thing happened, in 2014 it happened again. Talked to hyundai about giving me the part and i would pay to have it installed, didn't happen. I told hyundai that i felt it must be a design flaw because it has broken 3 times in four years and once again the response was there was nothing they could do for me. Maybe hyundai shouldn't produce cars with sun screens in them since it seems like they can't get it right, and is having trouble admitting the problem is their fault.
Excessive squeaking noise emitting from front passenger and driver side. Vehicle analyzed by pep boys mechanic. Resolution was to remove and replace front ball joint upper and remove and replace front strut assembly.also, the rear screen is activated when vehicle is taken out of park and place in reverse.

I have had a problem with the headlights dimming on my 2006 hyundai azera. This happens at night when you let your foot off of the accelerator. The rpms drop to below 1,000 for a second, and then they rebound to normal on the tachometer. You think that the motor is going to stop, but it doesn't. This decrease in motor revolutions per minute causes a drop in the electricity being produced by the alternator, which causes the lights to dim. The car is about 4 years old and has been doing this for the last 2 years. The dealer has not been able to duplicate this problem.
Hyundai azera 2006 when it reach 9,000 miles the front headlights began dimming while driving at night.i have brought it back to the dealership 3 times and they state that "this condition does not adversely affect visibility or headlamp illumination in any manner.this condition is normal and does not reflect any malfunction of the electrical system.do not attempt to repair this condition."well, my lights going out for 5 seconds could mean the end of someone's life!this is a major problem that hyundai is not addressing and i am mad!does it need to begin to end in deaths before there is a fix?
The contact owns a 2006 hyundai azera. The contact stated that when driving at any speed, the headlights would begin to dim abnormally before shutting off and would re-illuminate independently within a few moments.

The failure mileage was 75,000 and the current mileage was 77,000.updated 4/01/11 updated 1/13/2012 *ln
Visibility is greatly impaired when using low beam headlights. Distinct horizontal "shadow line" makes driving difficult and dangerous due to lack of visibility. I have adjusted the headlights upward as far as i can safely go but, this did not eliminate the problem. Hyundai claims everything is "normal". I have had to limit my night driving for the last 6 years because of this issue.
While driving at night the headlights dim drastically while the car is downshifting while slowing to a stop.each time the car downshifts the lights dim.i have taken it in multiple times to the dealership and even shown them the tsb pertaining to this issue and they have yet to fix this issue.every time i take it in to the dealership there is some excuse why it is happening and it generally centers around supposed corrosion on the battery terminals or i need my battery replaced.after cleaning terminals, replacing battery, and whatever else they suggested, the headlights still dim.they refuse to do the fix as described in the tsb and say that everything checks out fine and there is no need to replace anything, except the battery which didn't fix the problem.the first time i brought this up was in 2008 and multiple time per year since with no resolution.it keeps getting worse every year with the amount of strain on the system and aging of the vehicle.i fear that something or someone is going to dart out in front of me when this is happening and i won't be able to react in time since my headlights are not projecting their full distance when this happens.
My 1006 hyundai azera has a dark shadow covering part of the left headlamp.in night driving, this results in limited vision on the left side of the road.dealer told me there's a black dot on the left headlamp which is supposed to reduce glare of my headlights for oncoming vehicles.however, this limited vision may actually result in a collision with a pedestrian or vehicle.dealer told me headlamps are set to spec and cannot be adjusted.it seems to me, that my safety should supersede the comfort of oncoming vehicles.
Vehicle brake lights dim when headlights are off. Also, high mounted center brake light does not illuminate during braking when headlights are off. The center brake light briefly lights for a 1/2 second, then shuts off. This can be dangerous particularly in daytime driving, if headlights are not on full or in automatic setting.
The contact owns a 2006 hyundai azera. While driving approximately 30 mph the contact depressed the brake pedal and noticed the lights on the instrument panel became dim as well as all of the exterior lights on the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for diagnostic testing. The technicians was unable to diagnose the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 83,000.
Headlights are dimming while city driving due to a faulty wiring harness. Several complaints have been made but no recall has been updated. Most occurs in motion but also happens when parked when the engine is on and turning the wheels.
2006 hyundai azera limited - i have a problem with the head lights and dash board lights dimming on and off randomly for about one year now. The problem does not happen if you are on the highway going about 60+ mph. I've brought my car into 3 dealerships. The 1st dealer said it was the battery harness which they changed and didn't solve the problem. They also wanted to sell me a new battery. The 2nd one said they'll never find the problem and save my money and take my wife out to lunch or trade the car in, and the 3rd dealer said they heard about the problem and fixed it once but can't remember how. The problem is a safety hazard and hyundai should find a fix.
I have owned my2006 hyundai azera for over 3 years,and have complained regularly to both the dealer and hyundai that the lowbeam headlights were a safety problem. They fail to throw enough light to illuminate enough of the roadway ahead to see safely. 3 years ago the dealer checked the alignment,and said they were adjusted to the mfg. Spec's, and couldn't be improved on. Today hyundai told me they would not deal with it. The dealer will not deal with it either. I also have another newer model azera, that has great lowbeam headlights. I feel this is a major safety factor, and the mgr. Needs to come up with a solution. I have found many other owners of 2006 azera's who have been complaining about this same problem. I use my hi-beams when i can, but normally i cannot drive with them on with any traffic. There are several hyundai owner websites, all of which deal with this problem, and they cannot get any satisfaction from hyundai to solve the problem.

I own a 2006 hyundai azera 4 door.the front headlamps do not reflect out sufficiently.the driver side lamps reflect down and create a severe blind spotand extremely poor visibility. Itook vehicle to a local hyundaidealer and was told nothing can be done to correct this safety hazardous.i went on line yesterday and discoverd there is a recall for this problemwhat can i do to have this problem with my vehicle repaired?also, i saw my model vehicle has been recalled for a malfunctioning stop lamp switch.and,the wiring harness for the right front seat belt tension sensor has a defect which can prevent the air bag from deploying in the event of a crash.how do i get these defects on my auto corrected?
Ihave been disappointed with my azera's headlights on low beam since it was new!i mentioned it to my dealer's service writer some time after i noticed many other owners were complaining about the sudden black area very close to the front of the car!he seemed ignorant of the complaint.i have since tried to get home before dark as my home is on a winding part of hwy 101 on the olympic peninsula in washington.the headlight fixture definitely should be replaced!
The contact owns a 2006 hyundai azera. While operating the vehicle, the driver side headlight was misaligned and caused the light to project to the ground. The failure diminished the driver's visibility. The cause of the failure was not diagnosed. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not included in nhtsa campaign number: 08e021000 (exterior lighting). The contact stated that the vehicle experienced the same failure listed in the recall. The vin was not available. The failure mileage was 120,000.
I own a 2006 hyundai azera and i have been so concerned about the driver's side headlights.they do not project out properly.there is a very, very noticeable shadow causing a totally unlit part of the road.i have seen over 23 complaints on this year model and make of car on one site.there has to be something that can be done to eliminate this vision problem.there have been reported accidents because of this problem and i fear there will be many moreaccidents because of this defect.it is my understanding the dealers and hyundai are very much aware of this problem, but refuse to correct it.
The contact owns a 2006 hyundai azera.the contact noticed that the exterior lighting would only illuminate when driving for approximately fifty to sixty feet.as a consequence, visibility was significantly reduced.he took the vehicle to a dealer and they stated that the lighting met specifications.he called the manufacturer and never received a response.the failure mileage was 21,000 and current mileage was 34,000.
The contact owns a 2006 hyundai azera. The contact stated that the low beam headlights failed to provide adequate illumination while driving. The contact had to engage the high beam headlights to view the road. Also, when the brake pedal was depressed, the illumination from the low beam headlights dimmed. Furthermore, the instrument panel lighting failed to operate and the gauges could not be viewed. The vehicle was taken to an unknown dealer and the alternator was replaced, but the vehicle was not repaired. The battery and the low and high beam headlight bulbs were also replaced, but the failure persisted. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was contacted. The failure mileage was 135,000.
Headlights dimming and going out intermittently that can cause a fatal accident.while driving at any speed, headlights dim and do out for seconds.i almost hit a guard rail on a curve on the highway.one dealership told me dimming was normal, another said i need a battery cable harness.this appears to be an electrical problem and the manufacturer said that the headlights are out of warranty.clearly this is something that should be investigated to see if there are more problems that have not been reported.it appears that there were some recalls due to headlight problems but no mailings went out.can you please investigate this problem?
I purchased a 2006 hyundai azera two years ago.i called to tell hyundai usa that the driver side headlight low beam was not operating with a full field of light, it appears to have a shield over the top half of the light. This creates a sharp distinctive shadow and a very short field of light when driving in darkness and is not illuminating a safe amount of the road.i have talked to hyundai usa and two different hyundai dealers about it and the problem goes unacknowledged. They all say they have not heard of this problem although they do attempt to adjust it.they have all said that the light is pointed down to avoid blinding the oncoming traffic, but if the driver is not provided with enough light to see in front of him, he is virtually driving blind. This is a real driving hazard.i am now aware of the recall 08e-021 concerning the replacement lamps on hyundai, but they are not addressing the headlights that are original to the car.
2006 hyundai azera low beam headlights defects. Definite design flaw, preventing headlights to properly illuminate roadway. Hyundai owner forums on-line address the problem by many, many other owners, but mfg. Refuses to deal with the problem, or even address my e-mail complaints. I also have a 2008 hyundai azera, with perfect headlight illumination. Dealer says 2008 headlight bulbs are not adaptable to my 2006 model, without replacing the whole assembly. Many drivers report on the forum's that driving on unlit rural roads, make it almost impossible to see anything on the roadway more than a few feet ahead, such as a deer or road debris. A simple replacement assembly would correct the problem for all of us.
The contact owns a 2006 hyundai azera.while driving 35 mph on a dark road, the driver was unable to see a deer in the road because the headlights were shining only 20 feet ahead.as a result, the deer was struck by the vehicle.the driver was uninjured and the vehicle was not damaged.the vehicle was driven to the driver's residence.the vehicle was taken to the dealer and they stated that the headlights were not defective.the manufacturer stated that there was a recall relating to the headlights, but it did not apply to the vehicle.the current mileage was 33,375 and failure mileage was 33,300.
The contact owns a 2006 hyundai azera. While driving 60 mph at night, the contact experienced poor visibility due to the angle of the headlights. The contact stated that he could only view the road once the high beam headlights were activated. The contact associated the failure with nhtsa campaign number: 08e021000 (exterior lighting). The contact took the vehicle to bob howard hyundai (613 sw 74th st, oklahoma city, ok 73139, (405) 634-8900) and was informed that the vehicle was designed in that manner. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was unknown.
2006 hyundai azera limited i just purchased has a headlight problem.the headlights go out at any time for two to threeseconds, then come back on.usually this occurs when coming to a stop, but not always.maybe this is the reason the previous owner sold the car.we called the local dealer and were told it was a problem they haven't found a solution to yet, and the dealer at three other azera owners with the same problem.the dealer said there is a voltage drop in the charging system, and it is more noticeable at night when the headlights are on. I have noticed the voltage drop during the day also by seeing the speedometer lights dim. This is so annoying, and is a safety issue.could even become a problem of road rage if my headlights flash on and off at an irate driver in front of me. I can't believe there is no solution!
The contact owns a 2006 hyundai azera. While driving 35 mph, the headlights malfunctioned and dimmed without warning. Also, the vehicle speed reduced independently on more than one occasion and the abs failure indicator illuminated without warning. An independent mechanic replaced the alternator, but the failures recurred. Kennesaw hyundai in kennesaw, georgia was contacted about the series of failures and stated that the failures corrected themselves. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue. The failure mileage was 80,000.
I too have had a problemwith the headlights dimming on my 2006 hyundai azera.this happens at night when you let your foot off of the accelerator.the problem is the rpms drop to below 1,000for a second, and then they rebound to normal on the tachometer.you think that the motor is going to stop, but it doesn't.this decrease in motor revolutions per minute causes a drop in the electricity being produced by the alternator, which causes the lights to dim.the car is about 3 1/2 years old and has been doing this for the last 18 months.the dealer has not been able to duplicate this driving the car during the daytime.however, it maybe related to the fuel injectors.after using fuel injector cleaner, the rpm drop off on deceleration seems to be less severe.
The contact owns a 2006 hyundai azera. The contact stated that the headlights were not bright enough while driving at night. The dealer diagnosed that the headlights needed to be adjusted.

I get a lot of water through the firewall and trunk .when i use my turn signal my running lights go out and my headlights go dim and i have no control overmy lights abs warning light comes on every thing electrical goes haywire.pleas help me this happens all day every time i get on theroad
While driving at night, for the first time since buying our hyundai azera, i was horrified to find the headlights were barely visible and pointing at the ground. I had to drive with the bright lights on. Even after the dealer adjusted them we continue to have to use the bright lights for safe driving. It appears the inside of the lens covers, in front of the regular bulbs, are severely scratched or cloudy so the lights can't illuminate the roads! this seems like a serious flaw for night driving. We are often on two lane roads that are hilly and curvy, with the occasional dear crossing in front of us, as well as oncoming cars. If we dim our lights for them, we literally can't see the road in front of us, and practically have to stop until the oncoming car goes by. We inquired, and were told the entire headlight unit will have to be replaced and is very expensive. Both sides are bad. Please help! there is also a strange noise from under the car, a squeak and low thumping sound when on the interstate. We hadn't even made our first car payment when we became aware of these issues. Then the check engine light came on and we had to have the firewall side converter and top 2 sensors replaced at the hefty price of $815.95.

Headlights on low beam provide less than acceptable visibility on uneven surface conditions-12-30 feet. Very dangerous.
Headlights do not properly illuminate the roadway.this is a safety hazard.i almost hit a pedestrian while driving on a dimly lit road. I complained to my dealer and was advised that there was nothing they could do.the dealer claims that the lights are working in accordance with the manufactures specifications. If this is true...the manufacturer should be forced to adjust these standards before a tragedy occurs.there have been two other instances where this condition nearly caused me to have an accident.
My headlights on my 2006 hyundai azera dim constantly at night. The car has been back to the dealer and hyundai has no fix for the problem.many other owners of the azera have the same problem.the suspension also has a major problem.noise and a loose suspension problem also no fix by hyundai.
I own a 2006 azera bought new in february 2006 and have had minor problems such as left beam blockage due to the way the left headlight is created according to hyundai. I now have a problem that just started2 months ago when i had yet another headlight replaced. My headlights (low beams) dim for a second or two and this happens every 20 - 30 seconds. It is most noticeable when youhave your fog lights on but also noticeable without them. Along with this dimming the heater fan also sounds to lose some power. I tried to duplicate this issue by sitting in my driveway with the car running and lights on many times for 30 minutes and more but this does not happen unless the car is in gear and moving. I have had the dealer check this issue but they say they cannot locate any voltage drop or see the problem. I of course asked them to verify this at night but they insisted to try to see this during the day. This is a definite hazard to the life of the passengers in the vehicle and pedestrians who might be walking or riding bikes at night. I have come close to hitting a person in black clothes at night while they were walking as my lights dimmed and for an instant i was unable to see them. This problem should be addressed before someone gets killed.

When i started the vehicle when it was cold or when it had less than a half a tank in gas the check engine light and esc light would come on. I wouldn't be able to drive the vehicle.

I would have to continue to turn off and on the vehicle until the esc light would turn off and the car would rev on it own.

2006 hyundai azera limited - i have a problem with the head lights and dash board lights dimming on and off randomly for about one year now. The problem does not happen if you are on the highway going about 60+ mph. I've brought my car into 3 dealerships. The 1st dealer said it was the battery harness which they changed and didn't solve the problem. They also wanted to sell me a new battery. The 2nd one said they'll never find the problem and save my money and take my wife out to lunch or trade the car in, and the 3rd dealer said they heard about the problem and fixed it once but can't remember how. The problem is a safety hazard and hyundai should find a fix.

Sensor fails for seatbelt/airbags resulting in ?????
I own a 2006 hyundai azera.the air bag warning light was illuminated in the instrument panel.took it to the dealer may 24, 2013, and was told that the passenger seat sensor needed to be replaced and would cost $500.if i wanted this repaired, they would have to order the part and i was to call them and let them know.afterward, i looked on your web site and found that there is a recall.call the dealer and found out that i had the recall done april 17, 2010, and would have to pay for it to be repaired again.it seems to me that hyundai did a temporary fix for this problem. Since consumers have had this problem to recur after the fix, it is obvious that this is just a band aid.the fix doesn't even last five years.because this will not allow the air bag to deploy, this is a safety issue and hyundai should repair the sensor for as long as the original owner owns the vehicle without charge.

I have a airbag light on my dash.hyundai dealership says it is the seat belt tensioner on the driver side.hyundai has recalled the car for the seat belt tensioner on the passenger side but they told me the driver side is not a recall.how can that be?
Airbag did not deplore until after the car fully stopped but the seat belt on the drivers side tighten continuously until i got a bleed injury inside my right breast the righting stopped only after i was abke to release it then afterwards the airbag deplored only in the drivers side no other airbags came out during this accident.
I took my vehicle in to be repaired for the recall for the air bag sensor. Three months later the light came on again and i took it back to have it evaluated and now they are saying that it the seat belt buckle pre tensioner sensor. I said to them that it was repaired already and they said that it was not . Through further investigation i found on a web site from the hyundai dealer for campaign 094 that when repairing the wiring harness that they are to look at the sensor as well and fix at that time and submit a claim for this. Now they are wanting to charge me for something that should have been repaired in the beginning.
The air bag lights on driver's side and passenger side stay on to let you know the air bags do not work. We have already been through the process of replacing the tension sensor wiring harness clip.the problem has manifested itself again. I have talked to the manufacturer and they will not offer any help or solutions since the items were replaced under the earlier recall. I do not believe it is my responsibility to replace the defective parts at an estimated cost of $408.hyundai told me to mail in the receipt once the item is repaired and they might consider making some sort of "goodwill" reimbursement. I am frustrated with their response and disappointed at how they have responded to a known defect.

Driver's seat moves on it's own. Backwards at first. Now it tilts forward to to the steering wheel. Very dangerous. A real hazard.
Driving on i70. Driver power seat moved backward.was able to stop motion and return seat to previous position using switch.the seat had been moving back and the seatback had been titling forward when car was parked and no ignition on.seat has since been moving back while driving more often and the seat back now tilts forward while driving.had to stop car since switch would not override the actions.had this checked after first incident at dealer.stated they couldn't duplicate problem but would probably require complete replacement of drivers seat at about $2000. Have also had problem with passenger side airbags and seatbelt.buckles have been replaced under a recall on both front seats but didn't fix the airbag problem. This is a major safety issue and a recall should be issued before someone gets killed.think about gm key problem.
Several weeks ago the drivers side power seat back in my 2006 hyundai azera would incline fully forward without warning pinning me to the steering wheel.the seat bottom could be moved back by manually operating the bottom switch to move the entire seat assembly back.after the dealer replaced the incline motor and 2 different seat switches, the entire seat now moves without warning to a full extended position.the entire seat moves to the fully extended position overnight while parked in the garage.the movement is unpredictable and is considered a safety issue.

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.

The manufacturer was notified but offered no assistance. The vehicle was not repaired. The vin was unavailable. The failure mileage was 70,000 and the current mileage was 87,000.
While driving or parked the driver side seat back moves forward pushing the drive toward the steering wheel. First started dec.2009 and was random. To it to the dealer and they stated they replaced drivers power seat switch. At this date it is happening so often it's unsafe to drive. I will schedule a visit to the dealer.
Air bag light stays on and wont go out
While driving our 2006 hyundai azera on route 81 south the drivers seat started moving forward on it's own. I could not stop it. The seat pinned me against the steering wheel.also the back of the seat also move forward and essentially pinned me against the steering wheel. I could not get the seat to go back for about a minute and a half. I got the seat to reset and it did the same thing a couple minutes later. This is very dangerous and only the fact that i am a very experienced driver avoided a catastrophic high speed accident. Fuccillo hyundai of syracuse replaced the switch and charged us $ 202.56 i contacted hyundai corporate and reported what had happened and requested reimbursement they refused saying the car had 109000 miles on it; i believe that this is a latent safety defect and this should be fixed at no charge.you need to remember that i could not stop the seat from moving no matter how many times i tried to activate switch. The only way i could stop the seat from pinning me against the steering wheel was to remove the fuse.
Several weeks ago i took my car to the hyundai dealer's service department for warranty work.over the last few months, while parked and unattended, the back of the driver's seat, on its own, readjusted itself all the way forward. This happened almost daily. The dealer said everything looked ok and they could not determine a cause.on 9/12/11 i sat in the driver's seat as i was preparing to leave work, and the seat back readjusted itself with me in it (car had not yet been started).it pushed me forward and up against the steering wheel.i was unable to stop the movement or readjust the back until the seat back completed its trek all the way forward.after the first time, i readjusted the seat and starteddriving on the bwi parkway at 55 mph when the seat back did it again, and again, and again.i headed straight for the dealer and during the 15 +/- miles to the dealer, i was compressed against the steering wheel about 20 more times.i am 6 feet tall and have long legs, and during the times i was driving and compressed against the steering wheel, it was extremely difficult to move my foot from the accelerator to the brake.as a result, as soon as i would feel the seat start to move forward, i had to pull over to the shoulder of the parkway until the seat stopped and i could readjust the back.thankfully, this time when i arrived at the service department, the seat compressed the service attendant while he was sitting in my car, so he could see that there is a problem! several months ago when i first noticed the back readjusting on its own, i googled the problem and discovered that this issue with azeras has been ongoing for quite some time. I hope that it will not take someone getting seriously hurt or killed before something is done to make huyndai acknowledge the problem. They think it is a switch. We will see!

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.
Heard on tv about the recall about the motor and brakes. Noone has contacted me about this recall.

Trip computer returns to 00 without touching reset button, door lock sometimes does not open with transmitter.trunk sometimes does not open with transmitter or interior trunk release.. Radio cuts off intermittently.instrument panel light flickers, and engine will stall for an instant. Back window screen goes up and down by itself.air conditioner came on without my pushing button. Warning messages will appear for few seconds "check engine", "abs failure", etc. Twice took car to hyundai service department.told they cannot fix anything unless these events are happening when i bring in car. Aside from these fairly minor problems, the steering wheel locked or power steering failed while driving..the service department did find an oil leak and replaced hose.replaced fuel level sender and driver door module. But the electric problems continue..i am worried that electric and steering problems will cause a serious accident.

While driving on us 95 at night my engine stopped runing. I was traving at 65 mph.at the time. The car was towed and later inspected. The inspection revealed that alternator had failed because oil had leaked from the valve cover gaskets directly onto the alternator which caused it to fail. This failure also affected the power steering & my lights as well . I was fortunate that my car was not struck as the traffic was heavy. .

As i pulled my 8 month old hyundai azera out of a parking lot, the cast iron housing holding the upper end of the passenger side tie rod failed, causing the tie rod to fall to the ground.the lower end was still in place but the upper end was on the ground,bolt and carter pin intact .this caused the right front wheel to become disengaged from the steering mechanism, causing the car to hit a parked car. Hyundai north america and the local dealership , after initially admitting this was product failure, now refuse to repair either the body damage or the tie rod which should be covered by warranty at the least. They insist our insurance company should pay for their product failure, which will cause our rates to increase.

I have an 06 hyundai azera and there was a recall made back in 2013 for the passenger seat wiring hireness. The defect would cause the airbag not to deploy. Would i be able to get this defect fixed now? i did not own the vehicle back in 2013, as i did not own it until may of 2015. It is showing the signs of the defect. The air bag light is on and it is throwing error codes b1489&b1495, which is for the passenger occuputant system. I also have this noise like something is loose in the suspension. Every little bump causes a rattling noise. I can not tell if it is the front or back, but i am assuming it is the back since there was a recall on this as well, plus i have replaced all front end parts. And the noise still exists.

Thumping loose noise coming from front suspension mainly at speeds less than 40 miles per hour. Officially hyundai says this is not a problem but my sources tell me that the hyundai engineers are well aware of the problem,know how to remedy problem but wants to keep it all hush hush because the fix is to expensive meanwhile owners simply have to suffer through this annoyance every day in fear that eventually something is going to break and possible cause an accident, can you please help us with this daily noise and safety issue. I do not wish to bring harm to my self, my family or any one else as a result of this problem. Thanking you in advance for your speedy attention to this critical matter.

On may 17, 2014 at approximately 1 pm in the afternoon, i was driving on the freeway when i heard a loud "thud" and my steering wheel jerked slightly while traveling at 65 mph. The sound concerned me so i pulled over and looked at my braking assembly on the driver's side front wheel. I didn't see a loose caliper or anything out of the ordinary so i "limped" to where i was going. When i arrived at a family members house, i removed the front driver's side wheel and was shocked at what i saw. The upper control arm had snapped in two at the ball joint. Had i realized that at the time, i certainly would have had my car towed since this was a safety issue. I ordered a new control arm and installed it over a period of several days. I kept the broken control arm and brought it to my local dealership to show them what had happened and to inquire about any recalls hyundai may have on their control arms (may 27th). I spoke to one of the managers, kelly [xxx] at south bay hyundai, and he said no recalls had been issued and gave me the customer service hotline number. I called the customer service center and spoke to [xxx] on may 27, 2014 at approximately 11:45am. He also confirmed there were no recalls and offered to record the situation under case number 6626102 (i believe the conversation was recorded and started around 11:38am if used for reference). I explained to him the control arm should never have failed. After several emails to hyundai consumer affairs, they wanted nothing to do with the situation since the car was out of warranty. I only received canned statements from them. As an engineer myself, i believe this is a part that should easily last the lifetime of the vehicle. I believe this is a safety issue and could possibly affect others driving an azera or sonata.please contact me for photos, documentation, and/or the failed control arm itself.information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).

I purchased my 2006 hyundai azera limitedalmost4 years ago.i have had suspension problems .i have had shocks changed 4 times.still no one can fix the rattle sound when i go over bumps.06
While driving at night, for the first time since buying our hyundai azera, i was horrified to find the headlights were barely visible and pointing at the ground. I had to drive with the bright lights on. Even after the dealer adjusted them we continue to have to use the bright lights for safe driving. It appears the inside of the lens covers, in front of the regular bulbs, are severely scratched or cloudy so the lights can't illuminate the roads! this seems like a serious flaw for night driving. We are often on two lane roads that are hilly and curvy, with the occasional dear crossing in front of us, as well as oncoming cars. If we dim our lights for them, we literally can't see the road in front of us, and practically have to stop until the oncoming car goes by. We inquired, and were told the entire headlight unit will have to be replaced and is very expensive. Both sides are bad. Please help! there is also a strange noise from under the car, a squeak and low thumping sound when on the interstate. We hadn't even made our first car payment when we became aware of these issues. Then the check engine light came on and we had to have the firewall side converter and top 2 sensors replaced at the hefty price of $815.95.

Brought my car in for recall campaign number 13v-354, repair was made but there was some damage to rear passenger side rim and tire. I bought 4 new tires but the car rode with a vibration. Made an appointment to have it inspected and was told the problem was with the new tires. New tires were installed. Still have a vibration due to the damage to the rim which was a result of the recall and the local dealer has not addressed the situation. I paid a lot of money to get service at the dealer, oil change, fuel injection maintenance new tires, mounted, balanced and front end alignment and still have issues. Alignment off due to second set of tires being installed,the car still vibrates due to damaged rim. I will not get the milage out of the tires due to the vibration. I would think that the rim should be replaced at no cost to myself. I drive 3000 miles a month, so for my safety, i stay up on my maintenance like i should. I think the dealer, rte 44 hyundai in raynham should take care of my problem. I seem to be getting the run-around from them. Help

While driving in la, ca with speed control set at 65mph i was making a lane change. To allow more room between myself and the following car i accelerated by stepping on the gas pedal. The car speed increased and i removed my foot from the accelerator to return to the set speed. The car did not slow down. I stepped on the brake to #1 take the car off cruise control and #2. To slow down. The car did not slow down and i was now moving at about 80mph. I stepped with my left foot on the brake pedal and tapped the gas pedal. Still the car did not slow down and i had difficulty keeping the speed down by applying the brake. I shut off the ignition and as i was in the fast lane (left) i moved off the lane to bring the car to a stop. This happened three more times while driving in la. On 02/03/14 while driving on i15 i wanted to see if i could duplicate the condition. Again the accelerator got stuck and i had to shut off the motor. I brought the car to the local hyundai dealer who reported that they could not find anything wrong. As the same thing happened while driving home, i went back to the dealer and on a test drive with a technician the accelerator got stuck again. I need your help and assistance in this matter which is a serious safety issue.

Car was traveling at approx. 18 mph. I applied brakes to make a left turn.when i pressed on the brakes, the car accelerated, and the brakes began stiff and would not stop the car.the car ran into a closed overhead double garage door, continued thru the garage and hit the brick wall on the back of the garage. The airbags did not deploy. I sustained lacerations and bruises. The car was deemed a total loss by the insurance company.hyundai had the car inspected by an independent third party, and no problems were noted.hyundai has not shared the results of the investigation with us.we have since used our own third party to test the car and the abs and esc warning lights remain on indicating there is a problem with both systems.
Dt*:the contact stated while making a left turn at 5mph the vehicle suddenly accelerated without warning.after releasing the accelerator and applying the brake the problem stopped.the vehicle was not inspected.
I was driving east bound on i-90 passing when the car accelerated on its own. I applied brakes (til smoking) brought the car to the right shoulder and turned the engine off. I called for a tow and had the car taken to the closest dealership.
2006 hyundai azera gas pedal lost all power at 30 mph on freeway.vehicle still running but will not accelerate past 30 mph. Restarted car, lost power at30 mph.extremely dangerous.this happened on freeway heading away from home.had to turn around in emergency turn around and head back home with flashers on 30 mph all the way home.accelerator continues to lose power at 30 mph.losing power on freeway and in intersections is a horrible feeling.
Hyundai has an issue with faulty throttle position sensors which causes the car's engine to stumble and then switch into "limp home" mode. This mode only allows a top speed of 20mph with very little acceleration power. This problem occurs when you are depressing the gas pedal, such as pulling out into traffic or merging into traffic.this is a serious safety issue that could lead to crashes, as the car will not accelerate as it is supposed to.currently, hyundai has issued tsb 09-fl-003-2, but will only cover the repair costs if the car is under warranty.being a serious safety issue, i feel that they should be required to recall these vehicles and replace defective sensors.
Acceleratorcontinued to operate after brakes were applied.this happened six times.vehicle almost hita pedestrian.
The rain sensing wipers do not continue to operate after the initial wipe before the windshield becomes so clouded with water that clear road vision is seriously impaired. This has been reported to two different hyundai service facilities.they test the equipment by turning a hose on the windshield.this does not simulate actual rain conditions.the latest occurrence of this malfunction was on july 22,2009.
I own a 2006 hyundai azera and i have been so concerned about the driver's side headlights.they do not project out properly.there is a very, very noticeable shadow causing a totally unlit part of the road.i have seen over 23 complaints on this year model and make of car on one site.there has to be something that can be done to eliminate this vision problem.there have been reported accidents because of this problem and i fear there will be many moreaccidents because of this defect.it is my understanding the dealers and hyundai are very much aware of this problem, but refuse to correct it.
In 2010 the rear sun screen would bind when you tried to retract it, hyundai replaced the part since it was still under warranty. It was approx. 2 months later the same thing happened, in 2014 it happened again. Talked to hyundai about giving me the part and i would pay to have it installed, didn't happen. I told hyundai that i felt it must be a design flaw because it has broken 3 times in four years and once again the response was there was nothing they could do for me. Maybe hyundai shouldn't produce cars with sun screens in them since it seems like they can't get it right, and is having trouble admitting the problem is their fault.
Driving vehicle approximately 30 mph when left rear wheel assembly separated from rear cross member suspension causing the vehicle to sway out of control. Vehicle came to a stop with left rear wheel at a 25 degree angle. Safety recall identified by dealer...
The contact owns a 2006 hyundai azera. The contact stated that the vehicle was included in nhtsa campaign number: 13v354000 (suspension). While driving various speeds, the vehicle wobbled when making turns. The contact noticed that the rear driver's side wheel was protruding from the wheel well. The vehicle was towed to her home. The dealer and manufacturer were not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The failure mileage was 121,000. The consumer stated was repaired out of pocket.
Brought my car in for recall campaign number 13v-354, repair was made but there was some damage to rear passenger side rim and tire. I bought 4 new tires but the car rode with a vibration. Made an appointment to have it inspected and was told the problem was with the new tires. New tires were installed. Still have a vibration due to the damage to the rim which was a result of the recall and the local dealer has not addressed the situation. I paid a lot of money to get service at the dealer, oil change, fuel injection maintenance new tires, mounted, balanced and front end alignment and still have issues. Alignment off due to second set of tires being installed,the car still vibrates due to damaged rim. I will not get the milage out of the tires due to the vibration. I would think that the rim should be replaced at no cost to myself. I drive 3000 miles a month, so for my safety, i stay up on my maintenance like i should. I think the dealer, rte 44 hyundai in raynham should take care of my problem. I seem to be getting the run-around from them. Help
