2020 Hyundai Veloster Problems

The engine/engine management system malfunctioned. The vehicle began repeatedly stalling and shutting off while I was driving and while stopped in traffic. The vehicle is now no longer able to start and run and will need to be towed to a Hyundai dealer. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request. My safety and the safety of others were put at risk because the engine shut off unexpectedly in active traffic. When the engine stalled, I lost the ability to continue accelerating and had to put the vehicle in Park and restart it. This occurred more than once and could have caused a collision, especially in intersections or congested traffic. An independent diagnostic scan was performed and showed engine misfire faults, although it did not identify a specific cylinder. The vehicle has not yet been fully inspected by Hyundai because it is currently inoperable and needs to be towed to the dealer. Hyundai has confirmed that there is an active software/campaign update associated with my VIN. I am also aware of Hyundai engine-related campaigns involving certain 2019–2021 Veloster vehicles with the 2.0L Nu engine, and my vehicle is experiencing similar symptoms, including stalling and engine shutdown. I am requesting that the vehicle be inspected by Hyundai to determine the cause. Prior to the complete no-start condition, the vehicle had symptoms including rough running, misfiring, stalling at stops, and the engine shutting off while driving. A diagnostic test confirmed misfire faults. The condition progressively worsened until the vehicle would no longer start and remain running

My spark plugs misfired

ON 2/14/2024, my car started not to accelerate after the Crash Collision light came on. My car pulled off like it was a snail but picked up speed after I drove a bit. I had to put my hazard flasher lights on in order for other car not run over me, which was a major safety issues and put me and my grandson at risk of being hurt. There was no check engine light coming up just the warning flashed (only for a second) up (crash collision) and the symbol of car crashing into another vehicle with triangle symbol then it went away after awhile. I managed to make it to the car dealership but it took almost a month before they determine it was the camera and crank shaft. They repaired the vehicle from 2/14/2024 but two weeks ago the Crash Collision light flashed up again.(7/18/2024) I made it to the dealership again but now my car has been sitting for three weeks because they only have one technician. *Also, I am having a problem with the molding or plastic on my window. The molding on the window that stops rain for flowing down in your door has melted off on both window. The plastic/rubber molding is literally melting off and smearing on my window

While driving my steering wheel will lock up and I’ll get an error message for lane keep assist on the dash. I never use lane keep assist so even when it’s off it does this. I have to keep turning my car off and back on for my steering wheel to unlock and the error will disappear.

Glass roof spontaneously shattered. Car was sitting in direct California sun. Nothing touched the roof but heat, the entire panel shattered and the car is undriveable.Thankfully my car was unoccupied at the time. I have heard there had been class action lawsuits in the past regarding this vehicle make and model involving years up to 2018 but models including 2020 like mine have also had complaints reported. Just adding this to the list of complaints filed.

During cold temperatures (sub 32F), the driver's side door will not open from the outside. Occasionally the passenger door is affected as well. This required crawling through the hatch to open the doors from the inside. When the key fob is actuated you can hear and audible click in the area of the door lock, but it can't be opened. Once the weather warms and the car warms up the doors perform normally. This has never occurred during the warmer months.

Gas was shooting out of my gas tank cap, strong gasoline smells in and out side the vehicle, popping noise coming from the back from the gas tank expanding so much it pushed up the rear seat. This puts me and others at risk of fire, explosion and toxic exposure. This problem has been reproduced. The vehicle has been inspected by the dealer. A check engine light came on for a evap sensor but the next day it was gone.

- Lumbar support on driver seat cracked or snapped and no longer is functional what so ever - The seat itself feels sunken and nothing like the passenger seat which does not have lumbar support - Unknown - No inspection of vehicle yet - No prior notifications or signs of failure

WHEN ACTIVATING THE TURN SIGNAL, PARTICULARLY WHEN TURNING LEFT, IT IS VERY EASY TO INADVERTENTLY TURN OFF ALL EXTERIOR LIGHTS. IF TOO MUCH FORCE OR A "SLAPPING" MOTION IS USED, THE SWITCH CAN EASILY ROTATE TO OFF, WHILE DRIVING.
