My accident the air bag did not deploy hitting another vehicle it deployed after hitting a curb which would have been 2 nd impact to deployit should have come out then, the bar in the head rest came out which cut my head and i received staples in my head. What the other metal things that flew out of the steering i don't know but they cut and burned my arm very bad. I was going straight on a two lane street. When the car backed into to the intersection it did not come from my right or my left. I was 3/4 of the way across the intersection when this car appeared backing up. I could not stop in time and hit it in the rear of their car.*dt
My blue link connected care has sent me 3 monthly health reports of my vehicle and have all said air bag problem need service immediately but i have no light turned on in my tachometer, i barely got this car 3 months it's too soon to have a problem like this and also have took it to get it serviced . I'm only concerned because if it does come down to a accident will my air bags work?
Vehicle stalls when taking foot off the brake. Won't properly drive

The contact owns a 2017 hyundai veloster. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the vehicle loss motive power and stalled with the check engine warning light illuminated. The vehicle was towed to mcgrath city hyundai (6750 w. Grand avenue, chicago, il 60707 (773) 889-9090) where it was diagnosed and determined that the connecting rod bearing was bent and the engine needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The contact mentioned nhtsa campaign number: 20v746000 (engine) as a possible solution to the failure however, the vin was not included. The failure mileage was approximately 80,371.
On my way home from work my car stalled out on the highway. Luckily traffic wasn't heavy and i was able to make it over to the shoulder accident free. My car wouldn't cut back on so i got it towed to vandergriff hyundai in arlington tx. They quoted me $12,322.45 to fix my car. Said there was a hole i my short block. The cause of connecting-rod bearings in the engine that wore out and made a hole my engine. The car is only worth 6,000 on kelly blue book and that repair coast is more than i owe on the vehicle. Hyundai needs to recall the 2017 model and make it right. The specs on the 2015-2016 is no different from the 2017. And there is no denying that the engine problem is the same.
Vehicle stalls when taking foot off the brake. Won't properly drive
The contact owns a 2017 hyundai veloster. While driving approximately 70 mph, the vehicle suddenly lost power and would not properly accelerate when the accelerator pedal was depressed. The contact also stated that the speed began to decrease before the engine stalled, the check engine indicator illuminated, and the temperature gauge increased. The vehicle was towed to keith hawthorne hyundai (4712 wilkerson blvd, gastonia, nc) where it was diagnosed that metal shavings were present inside the engine and the engine needed to be replaced. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic who was unable to determine the cause of the failure. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The vin was not available. The failure mileage was 61,000.
Oil leak lead to engine knocking which lead to the complete failure of the engine. Piston rods are destroyed engine failure happened while i was driving on the road engine lost power would not accelerate. My car has been parked since.
Car was running fine, maybe a little loud on startup. Under a left hand turn on surface streets, adding power at about 30 mph, engine stalled in high 3rd gear with a check engine light, battery light, and low oil pressure light. I pulled over and could not get the car to restart (sounded like the alternator and belt were moving, but the motor would not turn over.) got it towed to a dealership, where they are in the process of getting approval for a new motor. They claim that the motor lost all compression, and failed a bearing test. It would not surprise me if it was a bearing failure on the crankshaft, like others have mentioned on here. Should probably be under the recall that included the 2016 model year, as clearly that problem was not resolved in the 2017 model year gamma engines.
I was driving home from work my car stalled out going thru an intersection. I went about another half mile and pressed the accelerator to climb the hill by my apartment and i herd a loud bang lost all power and oil at the same time i was able to coast into my apartment where it is still sitting i had recently had the catalytic converter replaced at voss hyundai where nothing was said about the noise it was making prior to my visit witch shows there lack of completing a vehicle inspection. Now i see the 2016 veloster has a recall for exactly what happened to my car i would like to see if my car can be added to the recall .it was made in oct of 16
Very sluggish no power it over revs the engine and doesn't shift right throws rpm way to high this happens every time i drive it not just some times but every time
While driving, the car loses power, as if the transmission stops working and then the engine revs up very high, but the car stops pulling.this happens while driving on straight a ways, has happened when crossing in front of traffic, doing turns.you have to let off of the gas and wait a few seconds and then when you press the has, the power suddenly returns.it just stalls out.there is currently a class action that includes this issue because so many experience it and hyundai says they can't find anything wrong.
My vehicle has a defective transmission that slips at times and won't always go into gear. This is a serious safety issue that happens randomly mostly during the summer months. The problem has occured about four times during the year that i have owned it. It a very scary thing to deal with when you're out in traffic and trying to drive safely. The dealer service department says that they have to duplicate the problem in order to take action at all. Since this is an intermittent problem that happens in the summer months, i can't even get it repaired, or replaced until the weather warms up. This is a dangerous problem that hyundai is aware of, i was told by hyundai that the hyundai tuscon has the same problem only worse. As of now they have not issued a recall on any of these vehicles for this particular problem. The service manager told me that the problem is with the clutch pacs and that a verified problem vehicle gets those clutch pacs replaced as long as the vehicle is still under warranty. My vehicle has 54879 miles on it and is under warranty through 100,000 miles unless this causes an accident.
I was traveling in a snowstorm on the highway. The engine began revving and the tachometer went way up. No traction control light went on and i began slowing down with vehicles behind me. I pulled through the traffic and got to the shoulder. The car was still in drive but the wheels wouldn't turn. I called the dealership and they said to have it towed. I shut the engine off, opened the door and tried again. Nothing. No forward movement. After 10 minutes i tried again and it worked, i began moving forward. This happened ever half mile or so until i got to the dealership, 8 miles away.the engine light came on. They tested it and the service tech said the wheels must have been spinning and i should get snow tires. I assured him that the wheels did not spin. He stated that the computer didn't receive an error so there is not a problem. They reset the engine light and i left. It hasn't happened since, but now i am scared to drive if it snows again. You literally lose all forward motion on the highway and slow way down as you attempt to move to the shoulder around other vehicles. I sent an email to hyundai who said to take it to a different dealership. I originally took it to nashua hyundai in nh.

I purchased a new 2017 veloster in may 2018. Beginning in mid august i started to have problems with the car not stopping and the steering wheel locking when attempting to stop.it happened on 3 different occasions.escalating each time.the first time it happened i almost hit someone in the back. The second time i almost ended up in oncoming traffic going through the stop light. The third time i got into an accident while trying to make a turn and the wheel and brakes did the same thing again...making my car not driveable currently. My car has about 3000 miles on it. Each time this occurred i was on a city street with stop lights.average speed 35-45 .

Passenger door started creaking upon opening and closing meanwhile my vehicle is only 3 years old , as well as my driver side window gets stuck and gets off track which i have to pull up my window to close . I know a few more people with a 2015-2017 veloster and they are all experiencing the same issues.
Panoramic sun roof shattered today, 8 jan 2019.my car has 14, 200 miles on it.there was snow on the top of my car (on the sun roof).after my car was warmed up (and stopped at a stop light), i heard a strange crackling type noise.i did not suspect it was glass until i hit a bump in the road and then heard pieces of something falling onto the protective/retractable curtain of my sunroof.i pulled off the road and noticed the entire sunroof was cracked with pieces falling onto the curtain.
Pulling away from residence and upon trying to open sun roof it shattered. Vehicle belongs to grand daughter and she was driving.

I believe this vehicle has a severe safety-affecting problem with the programming of it's engine control unit.under certain conditions, mostly (but not always) while the engine is cold or cool, the vehicle occasionally will not respond to inputs from the throttle pedal.this occurs while the road is clean and dry - i want to stress that this is not a manifestation of traction control.during these incidents even if the throttle pedal is fully depressed the car will only accelerate very slowly.when this occurs, varying the amount of throttle has no affect.more worryingly, this evening, the reduction in power was so severe that the car would not accelerate at all.the reduction in acceleration persists as long as your foot remains on the throttle pedal, regardless of the distance you may have travelled during the incident.normal throttle behavior only returns once you fully release the throttle pedal, then reapply throttle.all of the above occurs on flat streets and highways.this is a fault in the engine control unit or transmission control unit'sprogramming.in a merging scenario, such an unexpected and comprehensive reduction in acceleration is a severe safety hazard that i believe warrants the nhtsa's attention.
On tuesday, april 10, 2018 just after 7p the sunroof exploded - without warning - while i was driving at 70 mph on interstate 10 just east of houston. It had not been struck by an object and the highway surface is smooth concrete. Glass showered down on my and flew off the roof of my car - striking my paint and spoiler on the rear of the vehicle. I'm thankful that i did not wreck and kill myself or someone else. When it exploded, there was a loud pop that sounded like a gunshot. My heart skipped a beat as glass showered down on me. For a moment, i thought i had been shot at by a sniper - what else would cause a sunroof to explode with no warning and without the vehicle striking road debris?
