fixed and it keeps doing the same thing in the meantime they have put 257 mi on my car which I think is unfair to me because I'm paying my car note every month not them my car has been fixed three times within a 6 month. Of a brand new car.. they've just did the recalls on my car again and it just slammed into Park yesterday I no longer want to talk to them because they keep getting my car they give me the paperwork they say it's fixed but the same thing happens again

completely failed and requires replacement. However, the dealership and manufacturer are actively refusing to perform the mandatory safety recall remedy, instructing me to pick up the un-repaired, hazardous vehicle. They are citing the vehicle's salvage title as the sole reason for denial. Under federal NHTSA regulations, a manufacturer cannot deny a safety recall remedy based on a salvage or branded title status unless the vehicle cannot be physically or safely repaired. This engine defect poses a documented fire and stalling hazard. I am filing this immediate complaint because Hyundai is violating federal recall mandates by attempting to discharge a vehicle with an open, dangerous safety hazard without completing the legally required remedy.

vehicle and confirmed a whining noise from the transmission on acceleration. The dealer noted "possible internal wear from bearing," found no trouble codes, and recommended replacing the transmission assembly at a cost of $8,015.09. At my request, the dealer also performed a transmission drain and refill with genuine Toyota WS fluid the same day, even though Toyota's maintenance schedule does not require transmission fluid replacement under normal driving conditions. The whine was unchanged afterward. No warning lights or messages have appeared, and the transmission has not slipped. However, owners of the same and similar Toyota models with this 8-speed transmission have reported sudden loss of power while driving after similar symptoms. I am concerned that the transmission could fail without warning in traffic or on the freeway, putting me and others at risk. The vehicle has not been inspected by the manufacturer. I have opened a case with Toyota. The vehicle and transmission are available for inspection upon request.

high RPMs, and refuses to shift properly through lower gears (gears 1 to 3). This causes sudden hesitation, loss of motive power, and violent jerking when accelerating and merging into active traffic, creating an imminent crash hazard. The manufacturer has refused repair assistance despite cascading powertrain defects that originated prior to 100,000 miles.

mirror structure to strike a roadside utility pole. KEY SAFETY FACTORS Sudden loss of directional control caused by computer-generated steering inputs rather than driver command or road obstruction. Quick driver intervention prevented a severe collision, but resulted in structural impact to the entire passenger mirror assembly. An official service ticket has been filed with the manufacturer requesting an immediate engineering telematics log pull (Steering Angle Sensor inputs vs. manual override torque, FSD state logs, and camera arrays) for the specific timestamp.

repairs had been completed. I continue to have concerns regarding the vehicle's safety and roadworthiness. Please see the attached Supplemental Vehicle Safety Statement and supporting documentation for additional details.

[[redacted]], the vehicle suddenly experienced a complete engine and electrical shutdown without warning. I lost all power and came to a complete stop in a middle lane. It could not be restarted. I could not safely exit the vehicle because of surrounding traffic and remained buckled in my seatbelt until police arrived to block traffic. The vehicle was towed to Ramsey Nissan. Ramsey Nissan diagnosed a failed battery, rated at 700 CCA and measuring 452 CCA. The dealership reported that the starter and alternator tested normally and no diagnostic trouble codes were stored. The battery was replaced. The dealership did not provide a documented explanation establishing why the engine shut off while the vehicle was moving or whether an intermittent electrical or charging-system fault was ruled out. I am concerned that the underlying cause may remain unresolved and that a recurrence could result in serious injury or death to myself, my passengers or another person traveling on the same road.

alignment and an EPS circuit inspection, but they have not yet responded. Honda did approve the dealer's pre-authorization request to replace the steering column. There were no warnings prior to the incident, but as it was occurring, all of the warnings were cycling (brake system failure, steering system failure, road departure warning, battery, etc.) until I made it to a local dealership who read the codes which showed internal steering module errors (U3000-49) and tracking failures occurred.

a serious accident in Mobile, Alabama. According to her account, another driver swerved, causing her to leave the roadway and strike trees. The vehicles did not make contact with each other. During the crash, the airbag in her Honda Civic did not deploy, and my daughter sustained injuries. The vehicle was severely damaged and is believed to be a total loss. I am deeply concerned that we attempted to address the airbag recall before this accident but never received the follow-up needed to schedule the repair. I want this incident documented and investigated to determine whether the recalled airbag or any related defect contributed to the airbag's failure to deploy and whether the recall had any connection to my daughter's injuries. I am also requesting that the circumstances surrounding Honda's lack of follow-up regarding our attempt to arrange the recall repair be reviewed. My primary concern is my daughter's safety and ensuring that this incident receives appropriate attention so that other families are not placed at risk. I respectfully request that NHTSA review this incident and determine whether further investigation is warranted.

this 2003 4 runner and these both were under warranty 3 months in and both had to be taken into service this one for radiator busted only to go into service had it towed and then additional problems they put a new wheel hub and brakes without my authorization and also the gear clip / gear shift was broken and they were trying to fix that and told me my car was ready today went up there and they told me they didn't even test drive it and that if it started running hot that to bring it back to service I felt unsafe and left the car and not only that the ABS lights and TRAC and maintenance and other lights were illuminated and it wasn't that way when I brought it in I didn't feel safe so I left it at service and I'm done dealing with this company . I want a resolution this is unsafe and I'm not the only one who has been done wrong . I have picture proof of the miles . Also the radiator fan shroud was left in the back of the car as well when I went to pick up. This is absolutely ridiculous!

word EXPRESS was painted on the pavement under the vehicle. The vehicle did not slow, issued no warning or takeover request, and made no evasive maneuver. I avoided the barricades with a reflexive steering input. At that moment there was a concrete divider on my left, a tractor-trailer in the lane to my right, and, as I learned only from the footage afterwards, a vehicle following in the lane I moved into. There was no collision and no injury. Tesla's own vehicle data export confirms the sequence. The Self-Driving state was ACTIVE_FSD continuously from 3:53 PM until 5:01:09 PM, when it changed to UNAVAILABLE in the middle of a rising steering torque (0.42 to 0.92 Nm, peaking at 2.01 Nm). That is consistent with a driver override, not a handover request. No automatic emergency braking event, forward collision warning or takeover alert is recorded in the surrounding two minutes. Speed was 76 mph before the intervention and 63 mph six seconds later, with no brake event. I have preserved all six dashcam cameras for the six minutes around the event, the vehicle data export, and a recording of the in-car dashcam viewer showing "70 MPH, Self-Driving" shortly before the event. The vehicle received a software update on October 11, so I cannot confirm the FSD version active on October 7. Tesla's support interface cited FSD v14.3.11 and software 2026.33.5. When I reported this through the Tesla app, it directed me to submit a bug report and report to NHTSA

7-8, 2026, warning indicators and steering-related problems occurred. The vehicle was towed to Genesis Dublin August 10. Inspection identified substantial thermal damage to the junction box and wiring. The vehicle remains unrepaired at the dealership, with damaged components believed available for inspection. The vehicle was also evaluated for an insurance claim. At a September 24 walkthrough, dealership personnel confirmed that the damaged junction-box/alternator connection area overlaps the area where alternator-related connections were handled under Recall 018G (Step 6, TSB 24-01-059HG). They discussed possible alternator overcharging but said damaged wiring prevented accurate output testing. The initiating cause remains unknown. I am concerned the recall may have reduced the original starter-solenoid short/fire risk while leaving a potentially related electrical overheating hazard unresolved. The severe heat and melting posed a potential engine-compartment fire risk. I am not claiming the recall caused this failure; I request NHTSA review whether it suggests an unresolved recall-related hazard or separate electrical defect. Genesis Motor America Case 43221279. Genesis denied warranty goodwill repair based on age/mileage without providing a conclusive technical cause. An insurance inspector attributed the thermal damage to corrosion-related electrical resistance and overheating.

foot was removed from the brake pedal, the mechanical surge caused the vehicle to unexpectedly lurch forward, fighting against and nearly overriding the factory Auto Hold braking safety feature before finally holding. Luckily, no pedestrian was walking in front of my car when this occurred. No check engine light (CEL) or dashboard warning ever illuminated. This safety compromise is directly tied to an ineffective or adjacent remedy involving Service Campaign 9B1 (Opcode 40D219R0) and Safety Recall 286. Under this Opcode, a factory software flash deleted the standard OBD-II trouble code P0451and substituted it with a manufacturer-specific shadow code P14EE00. This software manipulation suppressed universal emission/pressure sensor faults, masking a volatile physical defect within the high pressure fuel delivery and ignition systems. Dealer diagnostics on a running, compromised engine flagged an improper fuel injector pulse and subsequently a failing Cylinder 3 ignition coil. All four injectors were replaced but only one coil, leaving 3 non-updated , factory defective coils in the engine. The vehicle remains an ongoing highway stalling and brake-override hazard due to an incomplete field remedy of a recall-adjacent system. I've filed a Hyundai Complaint with assigned case number 43394228 regarding Safety Recall 286. (Two episodes of the attempted Auto Hold override occurred - first 09/09/2026 and second 09/29/2026.)
