2007 Hyundai Entourage Problems

The valve over eventually leaks oil that drips down on to the alternator. This cause the electrical system to fail, the battery and brake lights come on. Then slowly all lights come on as battery shuts down. This is a known issue with this engine. This happened to me yesterday while driving at night leaving the car unable to drive. When the battery completely shuts down you cannot even move the vehicle out of Park, as electric is needed to disengage the the shifter from park, so you cannot even push the vehicle off of the road. Hyundai has a recall for the exact same engine in the Veracruz. Here are two videos showing issues. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RSLmj8Gqc1Q https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h9Q78so3GPI https://www.carproblemzoo.com/hyundai/entourage/engine-oil-leaking-problems.php The VIN was not included in NHTSA campaign number: 14v415000 (engine and engine cooling).

DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 56-57 MPH DOWN A STATE ROUTE RD WHEN THE HOOD CAME UNLATCHED AND FLEW UP AND SHATTERED THE WINDSHIELD AND BREAKING THE HOODS HYDRAULIC LIFT ARM. I FOUND OUT THE HOOD LATCH WAS RECALLED BY HYUNDAI PRIOR TO THIS HAPPENING AND WE DIDN'T KNOW. HYUNDAI WAS CONTACTED AND THEY ARE REFUSING TO ASSIST WITH GETTING THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP AND TELLING US THAT THEY ARE ONLY RESPONSIBLE FOR THE HOOD LATCH AND NOT THE OTHER DAMAGE THAT WAS CAUSED BY THE HOOD LATCH FAILING WHILE DRIVING.

I was driving on the street and heard a snap I then pulled over contacted a tow company and brought it to the nearest mechanic shop was told that my control arms are so rusted that they snapped on both sides left and right one cracked completely through the other 1 Has just a crack but was not completely broke had to pay for the repairs at $2677 later to find out that in 2014 a recall was made recall 115. I just purchased this car however records don't show this as a active recall so either it was serviced and not properly fixed therefore still making it dangerous for my family and others or was never completed and being sold as a unsafe vehicle to my sister whom I brought this vehicle from. When she bought it nothing about this recall 115 was listed so she was not aware when selling this van to us.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HYUNDAI ENTOURAGE. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY SHUT OFF AND THE ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL AND TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO CAPITOL HYUNDAI(2820 EASTERN BLVD, MONTGOMERY, AL) FOR REPAIRS, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. NO DIAGNOSIS INFORMATION WAS AVAILABLE.

WHILE DRIVING TO WORK YESTERDAY MORNING, I WAS TURNING OFF A SIDE ROAD ONTO A MAIN ROAD. AS SOON AS I TURNED ON TO THE MAIN ROAD THE VAN SOUNDED LIKE MAYBE IT HAD A FLAT, IT DID NOT. BOTH ESC LIGHTS CAME ON AND STAYED ON. THE STEERING AND BRAKING WAS ERRATIC AND THERE WAS NO PICK UP. I COULD NOT GET THE WHEELS TO TURN THE SAME DIRECTION AS THE STEERING WHEEL FOR A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME MOVING INTO ON COMING TRAFFIC. LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO GET SHORT PERIOD OF CONTROL, ENOUGH TO BARLEY TURN INTO A PARKING LOT. I AM SO FORTUNATE THIS DIDN'T HAPPEN ON THE HIGHWAY AT 55MPH OR COULD HAVE BEEN HORRIFIC. I DID CALL HYUNDAI AND THERE ARE SEVERAL RECALLS FOR THE VAN INCLUDING THE FRONT CONTROL ARMS. I ASKED IF THEY CAN TOW TO THE NEAREST DEALER CONSIDERING I JUST AVOIDED AN ACCIDENT AND HAD NO CONTROL. HYUNDAI WILL NOT TOW TO THE DEALER. THEY DID OFFER TO REIMBURSE ME IF I TOW IT, BUT THAT DOES NOT HELP ME CURRENTLY. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS SITUATION AND NEEDS TO BE RECTIFIED BY HYUNDAI BEFORE A DRIVER IS NOT ABLE TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT DUE TO HAVING NO PICK UP OR CONTROL OF THE STEERING.

I WAS DRIVING ON THE CLEAR VIEW EXPRESSWAY IN NY WHEN THE CAR ENGINE SHUT OFF NO WARRING AT ALL JUST DIED. I WAS LUCKY I GOT TO THE SHOULDER OF THE HIGH WAY CALLED FOR A TOW TRUCK TOOK 4 HOURS TWO TOW TRUCKS TO GET ME HOME TO CT TOOK IT TO THE HYUNDAI DEALER IN MILFORD THEY SAID THE ENGINE FROZE HAD PLENTY OF OIL WAS NOT BURNT IT JUST STOPPED WORKING THE ENGINE HAD 113,000 WHEN IT JUST STOPPED NO WARING AT ALL THEY SAID BECAUSE IT WAS OUT OF WARRANTY THEY COULD NOT HELP ME AT ALL WILL NEVER BUY ONE AGAIN NOT GOOD CUSTOMER SERVICE NOW I HAVE A BIG PAPER WEIGHT IN MY YARD.

WE PURCHASED OUR 2007 HYUNDAI ENTOURAGE IN 2015 AND 2 MONTHS AFTER WE BOUGHT IT BOTH DOORS MOTORS STOPPED WORKING. THE DRIVER SIDE PASSENGER DOOR WILL ONLY OPEN ABOUT 10 TO 15 INCHES. WE'VE HAD TO USE THE HANDLES TO OPEN BOTH DOOR AND THE HANDLES BROKE. I CAN ONLY ASSUME THAT THEY BROKE BECAUSE THEY WERE NOT MADE TO BE USED SINCE THE DOORS ARE SUPPOSED TO BE USED WITH A REMOTE AND ARE MOTORIZED. WE'VE ALSO HAD TO REPLACE OUR HEAD LIGHTS AND BACK LIGHTS ABOUT 6 TO 8 TIMES THAT'S MORE THAN I'VE CHANGED ANY LHEAD LIGHTS ON ALL MY VEHICLES IN MY ENTIRE 44 YEARS OF OWNING CARS. THIS VEHICLE HAS HAD 6 RECALLS SINCE WE PURCHASED IT IN 2015. PLEASE JUST RECALL AND REPLACE THE WHOLE VEHICLE TO MAKE UP FOR HOW POORLY THIS VEHICLE WAS MADE AND THROWN TOGETHER. TY *TR

TURN SIGNAL INTERMITTENT/TOTAL FAILURE, SYMPTOMS ARE TYPICALLY SEEN WHEN A BULB FAILS. REPLACEMENT BULBS DO NOT CORRECT ISSUE AS THIS ISSUE IS RELATED TO A FAULTY BCM (BODY CONTROL MODULE). VEHICLE DOESN'T USE A RELAY STYLE SIGNAL INDICATOR SYSTEM. NOTE: THAT THE REAR TURN SIGNAL BLINKS FAST DURING FAILURE. MULTIPLE FORUM POST STATE THAT IT CAN APPEAR ON EITHER SIDE. *TR

THE SPARE TIRE ASSEMBLY WAS SO RUSTED THAT YOU COULDN'T REMOVE THE SPARE DONUT. THE FRONT DRIVERS SIDE REGULAR TIRE HAD A SMALL NAIL IN IT RESULTING IN SOME AIR LOSS. SO TOWN FAIR TIRE IN TEWKSBURY MA AGREED TO PLUG THE TIRE BECAUSE THEY COULD NOT REMOVE THE SPARE TIRE DO TO HEAVY RUST IN WHICH THEY ALSO SAID THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM TO THIS MODEL VEHICLE. ALSO I AGREED WITH TOWN FAIR TIRE THAT I WOULD GET IT UP TO MY DEALERSHIP: JD BY RIDER UP IN MANCHESTER NH ASAP FOR EXTRA SERVICES. JD BY RIDER SENT MY VEHICLE TO TOWN FAIR TIRE IN MANCHESTER NH & T.F.T. ALSO RECOMMENDED A BRAND NEW FACTORY SPARE TIRE ASSEMBLY. I ENDED UP HAVING TO BUY 4 BRAND NEW REPLACEMENT GENERAL GRABBER TIRES P75-65R-16 TIRES. ALSO JD BY RIDER HAD TO BUY ANOTHER SPARE DONUT TIRE FOR PUTTING IT IN THE WAY BACK OF MY VEHICLE. THE ORIGINAL SPARE TIRE IS STILL FROZEN UNDERNEATH THE PASSENGER REAR OF MY VEHICLE. I HAD TO DRIVE TO TOWN FAIR TIRE THINKING THAT THE FRONT TIRE JUST NEEDED SOME AIR PUT IN IT BUT TFT TOOK IT OFF THE RIM & DISCOVERED THE NAIL IN IT RIGHT NEAR ANOTHER PLUG. THAT WAS WHY THEY WERE HESITANT ON PUTTING IN THE NEW PLUG.

AIR BAG LIGHT IS ON WHEN KEY IS IN ON POSITION. IT STAYS ON WITH OR WITHOUT PERSON IN PASSENGER SEAT, IN MOTION OR PARKED,

FOR SEVERAL MONTHS NOW THE VEHICLE CONTINUES TO DISPLAY THE "AIRBAG" LIGHT ON WITHOUT GOING OFF. I HAVE BEEN TO NUMEROUS MECHANICS WHO HAVE ALL TOLD THE SAME THING THAT THE VEHICLE HAS A MANUFACTURER MALFUNCTION IN THE ELECTRONIC SYSTEM. ALL MECHANICS REFUSE TO TOUCH THE VEHICLE DUE TO THIS SERIOUS ERROR. THIS LIGHT APPEARED WITHOUT WARNING WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED AND WHEN TURNED ON THE AIRBAG LIGHT APPEARED. I AM UNCERTAIN AS TO WHEN. IN ADDITION, THERE IS A VERY SERIOUS CONCERN WITH THE DRIVERS SEAT WHERE IT IS SUPPOSE TO BE WELDED TOGETHER, HAS BROKEN CAUSING THE DRIVERS SEAT TO ROCK FREELY WHILE DRIVING. THIS IS ALSO AND CLEARLY A MANUFACTURER WELDING ERROR THAT OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING ON AN EVEN ROAD. THERE WAS NO FORCE OR EXTRA WEIGHT THAT CAUSED THIS INCIDENT AND ALSO ALL MECHANICS HAS SAID THIS TO BE A MANUFACTURER WELDING ERROR CLING FOR IMMEDIATE ATTENTION THAT IS A SERIOUS SAFETY RISK TO MY FAMILY AND MYSELF. THE SEAT BELTS ARE ALSO A SAFETY RISK AS THEY DO NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY WHEN FASTENED. SOME ARE TOO TIGHT CAUSING UNCOMFORTABLE DRIVING AND OFTEN STICK INTO THE SLIDING GROVE CAUSING NON-MANAGABILITY LEADING TO POSSIBLE INCIDENTS WHILE DRIVING. AGAIN, MECHANICS HAVE STATED THIS IS A MANUFACTURER ERROR WHICH IS REASON WE FIND IT NECESSARY TO FILE THIS COMPLAINT WITH OUR TRUSTED VEHICLE MANUFACTURER. THANK YOU. *TR

BOTH OF THE REAR DOOR HANDLES SNAPPED OFF FOR NO REASON. WE WERE STATIONARY AND I WENT TO OPEN IT, NO EXCESS FORCE OR PULLING. TRIED TO OPEN AND BOTH BROKE OFF IN MY HAND. THE BACK WINDSHIELD WIPER HOOK ALSO SNAPPED AND THREW MY WINDSHIELD WIPER OFF. I WAS STATIONARY, I HAD TAKEN OFF THE OLD ONE PUT A NEW ONE ON AND IT BROKE AND LOST MY WINDSHIELD WIPER WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY! CHEAPLY MADE HANDLES AND WINDSHIELD WIPERS!

WAS DRIVING IN THE RAIN AND WIPERS WAS WORKING AND ALL OF A SUDDEN STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WINDSHIELD WAS NOT ABLE TO SEE!!! *TR

THE ENTOURAGE BEGAN RUNNING LIKE IT WAS NOT GETTING FUEL, JERKING, HESITATING, ETC. TOOK TO DEALER THEY SAID THE OIL WAS THE ISSUE. OIL CHANGE AND FLUSH. 1 WEEK LATER BEGAN WITH ISSUES AGAIN, DEALER REFUSED TO LOOK AT IT. WENT TO OUTSIDE MECHANIC SAID MISFIRE CODE WAS BAD COIL. CHANGED, 1 WEEK LATE SYMPTOMS RECURRED. HYUNDAI DEALER STILL REFUSED TO LOOK STATING IT WAS AN OIL ISSUE. WENT BACK TO SAME MECHANIC DIAGNOSED SAME MISFIRE CODE AND THEN SAID A SECOND CAME UP AND WAS THE PMC WAS CORRUPTED. *TR

MY ENTOURAGE EXHIBITS INTERMITTENT SIGNIFICANT LOW-SPEED ENGINE BRAKING WHEN DRIVING IN THE AUTO 'DRIVE' POSITION. THIS BRAKING EFFECT IS SIMILAR IN EFFECT TO THE ACTUAL LIGHT APPLICATION OF THE BRAKES. THIS WAS IMMEDIATELY REPORTED TO THE HYUNDAI DEALER UPON PURCHASE DELIVERY OF THE VEHICLE. DEALER HAS ATTEMPTED TO FIX BY PERFORMING TRANSMISSION RE-PROGRAMMING. THIS HAS MODIFIED THE BEHAVIOR TO MAKE THE OCCURRENCE OF THIS MUCH MORE INTERMITTENT, BUT STILL NOT FIXED IT. I HAVE TWO SAFETY CONCERNS WITH THIS. THE FIRST IS I HAVE ALMOST BEEN REAR-ENDED BY ANOTHER DRIVER ONCE, AND THAT WAS ON DRY PAVEMENT. THIS VEHICLE ACTUALLY PERFORMS A BRAKING FUNCTION WITHOUT THE BENEFIT OF THE VEHICLES BRAKE LIGHTS BEING DISPLAYED. WE LIVE IN WISCONSIN WHERE THE ROAD CONDITIONS GET ICY DURING THE WINTER. THE BRAKING IS SIGNIFICANT ENOUGH THAT I'M CONCERNED ABOUT IT CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO ENTER AN UNCONTROLLED SKID ON ICY ROADS, PARTICULARLY IN CONDITIONS OF APPROACHING INTERSECTIONS REQUIRING A STOP OR YIELD AND ALSO WHEN EXITING HIGHWAY RAMPS WHICH CAN BECOME VERY SLIPPERY. HYUNDAI AND DEALER HAVE BOTH NOW DECIDED THIS IS 'NORMAL', EVEN THOUGH IT IS VERY INTERMITTENT. HYUNDAI WILL NO LONGER ADDRESS THIS. THE VEHICLE OPERATES TO COAST IN A SAFE MANNER ABOUT HALF THE TIME THE GAS PEDAL IS RELEASED, WHICH LEADS ME TO BELIEVE IT SHOULD BE CAPABLE OF DOING SO ALL THE TIME. THIS APPEARS TO BE A DESIGN FLAW WITH THE ENGINE/POWERTRAIN THAT CAN BE AFFECTED BY PROGRAMMING, BUT HYUNDAI WILL NO LONGER ADDRESS AND HAS LEFT ME WITH NO RECOURSE FOR RESOLVING AS THEY WILL NOT RECOGNIZE THIS AS A VALID PROBLEM. THE ENGINE/TRANSMISSION MODULES DO NOT DISPLAY ANY PROBLEM CODES FOR THIS, SO HYUNDAI'S STANCE IS IT IS NOT A PROBLEM. *JB

PASSENGER ELECTRIC SLIDING DOORS DO NOT LATCH PROPERLY. LATCHING THE DOOR MAKE TAKE SEVERAL ATTEMPTS. SHAFT HUMMING WHILE ON GEAR ON ACTIVE GAS PEDAL. THE NOISE DISAPPEARS WHEN THE GAS PEDAL IS NOT USED WHILE IN GEAR.

2010 A/C NOT WORKING PROPERLY. IN 2011, AGAIN A/C NOT PROPERLY WORKING. BOTH TIMES TOOK INTO DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID IT JUST TAKES THE SYSTEM A LITTLE LONGER TO GET COLD. THEN IN 2011, 2 MORE TIMES THE SAME PROBLEM BUT MODULE FAN CONTROL CIRCUIT AND WIRING WAS MELTED. TOOK IT TO AUTO TECH SINCE THE WARRANTY HAD EXPIRED FOR THE REPAIRS.
