In october of 2020 the car had an oil change. About a month later while driving down the highway I started to hear a ticking noise. When I got to my house we started to investigate what was going on. First we checked the oil which was nothing but fumes but the oil light never came on. Confused as to why there was no oil we kept investigating because as stated before the car had an oil change the month prior. We replaced the oil yet again and continued to drive the car to see what was going on. The ticking kept getting louder even with oil being checked daily. This car only has 80,000 miles on it. I finally took it to a mechanic who told be it was my rod berings I was given a quote to fix it in which we agreed I could fix it but it would take some time for me to get the money. On saturday

The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Accent. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the passenger’s side air bag warning light illuminated.

Like many of the other complaints, in 2 years I have now replaced 3 catalytic converters. Everything will be fine and then BAM car stops working. No one can find any other issues. The car is in the shop again after the engine misfire light came on. Let’s see what it is this time. I am guessing it is an engine problem but no matter how many times I look, there are no recalls. Not sure what else I can do

I had two different mechanics I trust tell me that this car has a particular engine that had an error in manufacturing, but Hyundai didn't correct it, because it would cost them too much. The error is heavy oil burning, such that it destroys the catalytic converter. I am now on my third catalytic converter in this car, and the check-engine light is beginning to flicker. Mechanic recommended contacting Hyundai corporate to file a complaint. He knows of others with this same engine, and dealers in New Hampshire have been able to get new engine replacements. I tried to call Hyundai corporate, but they refuse to take any information from me and tell me I would have to buy a new engine if I want to replace it. Mechanics have said that the cost would be heavy for Hyundai if they admitted the pr

This car has a GDI engine, which is now known to be defective due to excessive oil consumption. I bought the car used, with Hyundai's certified inspection before selling it to me. While my daughter was driving the car on the highway, the engine suddenly balked and stopped. She pulled over to the side of the road and called for assistance. As I write this, there is still no recall on anything pertaining to the car. The mechanic said that the catalytic converter was destroyed. Oil consumption had damaged and then destroyed it, which was becoming a known thing about the GDI engines. Hyundai refuses to acknowledge the problem officially, but there is anecdotal information that some drivers with GDI engines are being given new, replacement engines to keep everything under the radar. NOTE: the f

Vehicle lost power in traffic, stalled and wouldn't restart without constant and repeated attempts. Place consumer is dangerous situation for rear collision.

Occasionally when you accelerate it hesitates and does not respond. It has been taken to a mechanic and a dealer and they cannot find the problem but it does happen. It is dangerous especially when pulling out onto a very busy road where I live this is a side street entering a very busy highway or most anytime. It is random it happens ever since car was purchased can't give exact date

For the past year I keep having to replace the catalytic converter, ignition coils and spark plugs every 2/3months. I just replaced the catalytic converter in October with a tune up. A month later had to replace spark plugs.

My catalytic converter failed on my car and will eventually needed a new engine. I was driving a busy road doing about 55 miles per hour and my car suddenly dropped down to 3-5 miles per hour without warning now flashing light on the dash nothing. I could have been killed or hit causing a multi car accident. I was so scared and it was so hot I thought my engine was going to blow. I coasted back into the auto place that just preformed my oil change thinking they had done something wrong. They did a throughall diagnostic of my car and my car was read that my catalytic converter was bad. So I then got my car to the Pearson Hyundai dealership where there formally diagnosed my car stating that I needed to replace my catalytic converter for 2500 - 3000, but I had done my research and new

October 2017 I purchased a 2017 Hyundai Accent. During my very first month driving this car right bumper clip broke. As I was under warranty took car in complained to the dealership. A tech came out and basically wacked it back in place. So now I notice both left and right sides of bumper are off track. My son is a licensed mechanic. Before I took it back to dealership he had checked and said mom your clip is broke. So he looks back under it again and now BOTH clips are broke. On 9/13/17 go back in. Hyundai notes in my paperwork clips are broke but failed to repair again at a little over 30,000 miles they note it again and failed to repair. This is a safety issue and I feel it should be a recall. The clips are cheap plastic and if it comes off I fear I will be in an accident.I have also b

The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Accent. The contact stated while the contact's daughter was driving at an undisclosed speed, the contact's vehicle was involved in a head-on collision. The contact stated that the oncoming vehicle failed to stop at the stop sign, and resulted in a head-on collision. In addition, the contact stated that it resulted in a five-vehicle crash. The contact's vehicle was severely damaged to the entire front of the vehicle. The air bags did not deploy. The contact's vehicle was towed to the local tow yard. The paramedics and the police arrived on the scene. A Police Report was filed, however the information was unavailable. There were a total of four occupants in the vehicle. There were two adults seated in the front seats and two minor children seated in th

My airbag check engine light kept going on and off for a couple weeks. A diagnostic was done on it at the auto repair shop and they told me the pods module came back with an error. They said with this malfunction none of the airbags will deploy if there's an accident, which is a huge safety risk. They said it will cost $2500 to fix but Hyundai had an airbag recall out where the airbags will not deploy in an accident, it just didn't include 2017 Hyundai Accent. I believe this may be part of a recall, that 2017 may need to be included in the formal recall. I have an appointment scheduled with a Hyundai dealership to get another diagnostic at the end of November but I'm sure they will say the same thing is wrong. I just want to see if 2017's are actually part of the recall and save other peop

Every time I try to press on brakes on a hill or gravel my car skids while driving and I feel my car skid and struggle to brake on a dry day with no rain what so ever. My 2017 Hyundai accent brand new and im the only owner. This has been happening since I purchased the car.

1. The engine loses power at different random times, for no apparent or obvious reason. This loss of power has happened at low and high speeds. Nothing seems to proceed the loss of power, it can happen at interstate speeds and at low speeds such as 25mph zones. 2. Driver side seat belt does lot stay latched. It unlatches when any pressure at all is applied.
