Hyundai Accent Problems by year

I own a 2010 Hyundai Accent and the vehicle has a catastrophic restraint system failure (the red SRS light) making it unsafe to drive. I contacted Hyundai corporate via Case# 43484901 and they have explicitly refused to diagnose or remedy the safety defect citing a standard warranty expiration.

The contact owned a 2013 Hyundai Accent. The contact stated that while driving 30-35 MPH through an intersection, the vehicle crashed into the passenger's side of another vehicle. The driver's side air bag exploded upon deployment, releasing gas, dust and particles into the cabin, which the driver inhaled. The contact sustained lacerations to the left forearm from the exploding air bag. Medical attention was sought for asthma that was triggered by gas inhalation and lasted two weeks. Additionally, the contact...

ABS module electrical fault and fire. On the evening before the fire, the vehicle displayed ABS and ESC warning lights with diagnostic fault code C2402 (motor electrical fault).

The contact was informed that the extended warranty program might cover the repair. The contact was informed that the repair was not eligible because the vehicle had a salvage title. The manufacturer was contacted, and a case was filed. The failure mileage was approximately 117,000.

I brought my vehicle to Victorville Hyundai to address the official manufacturer safety warranty extension, Campaign Z01, which covers a defective passenger side Occupant Classification System (OCS) airbag sensor. My vehicle currently has 129,000 miles. The dealership and the service manager refused to perform the necessary safety diagnostic or inspection unless I signed a pre-authorization contract agreeing to pay a out-of-pocket fee of $219. The manager explicitly stated that this fee would be charged if they...

Transmission began exhibiting hesitation, RPM surge/drop, and a stuck gear at approximately 26,000 miles. Diagnostic trouble code P0741 was confirmed by the dealer, and the transmission assembly was replaced under warranty. This matches a documented defect pattern currently under federal class action litigation involving this manufacturer's IVT/CVT transmissions in this and related models (2020+ model years), specifically sudden loss of power and acceleration failure. Prior to the repair, the issue was reported...
