The drivers side seat began adjusting itself while I was driving and moved all the way back so that I could not reach the brake or gas pedals. It also moved forward, pinning me to the steering wheel. It happened again to my teenager while she was learning to drive. Very scary for a new driver and very unsafe to say the least. I have yet to make an appt. At the dealership since it is out of warranty and I can only imagine what it will cost. I have seen other owners with the same issue and I hope you take into consideration that this is a huge safety concern and should be part of a safety recall. *tr

Driver seat adjusts itself forward 45 degree incline on my back. Unable to stop or prevent movement with knobs made for this purpose of adjusting back of seat. The seat inclines or reclines 90 degree angle even when car is turned completely off. Seat extended backward on my 4 year old grandson legs when he was properly seated in a child's car seat behind the drivers seat. I had to quickly reach back and move his legs to the side because I could not control the mechanism in the seat. As a result the child's car seat is not properly seated in the seat behind the drivers seat but I had to put it in the middle of the back seat. The seat inclines intermittently without my control and remains at a 45 degree angle. This puts strain on my back and puts my body too close to the steering wheel and

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 Hyundai azera. The passenger front air bag warning light was illuminated on the instrument control panel. The vehicle was taken to the Hyundai dealer three times. The air bag module and harness under the front seat was repaired. The repairs did not remedy the failure. The failure mileage was 17,000.
The air bag indicator on the dashboard illuminated and remained illuminated sometime during the summer of 2013. I didn't know what it meant - it wasn't flashing, it didn't say warning, it just said "air bag" - so I didn't do anything about it. I finally called the dealer, lithia Hyundai of reno, to find out what it meant, and they told me to bring it in. They charged me $120 to diagnose the problem. After a couple of hours, they said the passenger side seat bottom cushion was not communicating with the air bag. They offered to repair the problem for $5051.87. Apparently, they had seen the problem before, because the service tech said "this is where I usually lose people" when he showed me the estimate. This is for a car that, according to edmonds, is worth $6500. From other complaints

About two weeks ago, the back portion of the front driver's side seat began moving forward automatically while I was driving the car. I also noticed that when the car is parked the seat would move forward as well. When the seat moves forward, I am put very close to the steering wheel, which makes it difficult to steer and interferes with my ability to brake quickly. Also, because I am so close to the steering wheel, I believe that if the air bags were to deploy I would be unnecessarily harmed. I brought the car to a dealership on december 17, 2014 because of a separate recall notice I was sent. The dealership replaced the stop lamp switch and added corrosive protection to the under carriage of my car. When I asked the service manager if he could run a diagnostic on my car while it wa

suspension 2 complaints shown
When first driven the vehicle vibrates. This seems to lessen after being driven for a while. I have installed new michelin tires and have had them rotated but the vibration persists. I suspect a suspension issue but have not taken it to the dealer yet. This happens regardless of the temperature outside. *tr
I have felt a vibration at various speeds in the upper, lower arm and ball bearing... But it's exactly same. They finally said, it might be a tire problem.... Well, I bought all new tires because of this nois... They are stating the cause is because of the tire pattern, when I know that is not cause of the current problem.... *tr
