2017 HYUNDAI VELOSTER

The engine failed due to suspected rod bearing failure related to Hyundai’s known rod bearing recall issue. The vehicle exhibited a flashing check engine light with diagnostic trouble code P1326, knocking noises, metal debris found in the oil control solenoid, and subsequent secondary damage to the catalytic converter. The engine has not been opened by the Hyundai dealership despite these indicators. The vehicle and affected components are available for inspection upon request. The engine condition poses a serious safety risk. An independent mechanic advised that the rod bearing issue presents a fire hazard and stated the vehicle should not be driven due to the risk of engine failure, fire, loss of life, loss of power while driving. A sudden engine failure or fire could endanger the driver, passengers, and other motorists. Yes. The Hyundai dealership documented secondary engine damage but failed to perform the required open-engine rod bearing clearance test despite recall-related

I bought the vehicle 14 days ago and everything was going well until black smoke started to come out of the exhaust and it started to smell burnt. I brought a mechanic to my house and he told me that the engine had already died

The 2017 Hyundai Veloster- Value edition is a Lemon straight from the manufacturer. I purchased mine in July of 2024 with 27,000 miles. When I test drove it I questioned the clicking noises that could be heard while switching gears along with minor "shuddering" at acceleration. I was informed by gentleman at Dealer that it was a normal characteristic of owning a DCT vehicle. One year later 7/2025 I have been experiencing more intense issues with clutch/transmission. I have a great loss of power at acceleration, it will stay bogged at 1,000-1,500 RPM'S before it engages and revs with a jolt forward. It is unsafe to pull out or lane change on highway. It also is shuddering upon every acceleration from a dead stop. The clicking noises are now accompanied by clicking noises any time it shift gears. I get an intermittent smell of something burning. It is DEFINITELY UNSAFE to drive in any temperature above 75° due to the vehicle not being able to get out of its own way. All issues are inte

Here is what happened I left my house about 8 am and I head towards the 101 south from union hills drive and 83rd Ave I'm on the 101 south and yhe time I am passing the Thunderbird exit I hear a loud explosion and I duck a little bit and I see a bunch of black debris in the air it happened so fast and then a bunch of glass from my sunroof starts hitting me in the head on my neck falling into my lap going down my shirt and into my coffee. So I pull over off the next exit ramp and pull into and industrial park and I got out and started to sweep glass off of me and out of my car so I can still make it to work on time, I took a couple pics at that time, then I proceeded back towards the highway to make it to work. I get back onto the 101 south and make it to work in Goodyear, I cleaned some more glass off of me and called my insurance. This is a huge safety issue, glass landed everywhere. I could have crashed, it could have hit other vehicles, im not injured but it scared me really bad af

The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Veloster. The contact stated that on three separate occasions while driving at undisclosed speeds, the vehicle went into LIMP Mode with the check engine warning light flashing on the instrument panel. The vehicle had been towed and driven to the dealer and an independent mechanic to be repaired. The contact was informed by the dealer and an independent mechanic that a knock sensor failure had caused the failure. The contact stated that the combustion chamber had been cleaned and the catalytic converter was replaced; however, the failure persisted. The contact also stated that the vehicle was consuming an excessive amount of engine oil. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired and remained with the dealer. The failure mileage was approximately 100,000.

I was driving on the highway; the speed limit is 70mph. I had the sunroof of my 2017 Hyundai Veloster open to the first stage. The glass in the sunroof literally exploded, (it sounded like a gun going off) blasting shattered glass down on me and all of the interior of the car, (scared the [XXX] out of me!) Luckily, I wasn't hurt and managed to pull over without any traffic incident, but this could have easily caused personal injury or a collision on the highway at 70mph. It wasn't struck by anything, and the glass was in perfect condition without visual defects, i.e., chips, scratches etc. It has been turned into my insurance and I am going to request that the new glass gets a coating like the windshield to prevent the glass from coming apart like this in the event that this happens again. I think all sunroof glass should be treated this way from the factory, a broken window or sunroof is enough distraction while driving without being showered in glass. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT T

The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Veloster. The contact stated while manually washing the vehicle, the contact observed that there was corrosion coming from under the paint of all four rims. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where all four rims were replaced with the manufacturer's original rims.

The contact stated that the failure recurred. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where the cause of the corrosion was unknown. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 5,000.

I took my vehicle in to get the initial KSDS recall campaign updated (knock sensor). The car failed on my way home from the dealership and they scheduled me the next day to fix the problem (the acknowledged the knock sensor update caused the failure and is the that beginning step in obtaining a new engine from Hyundai. They then gave me a loaner car while my car was going to be repaired. I then recieve a call from the Hyundai service center about how my salvage title status excludes me from further repairs. I am then forced to drive my car home again with a failed engine. The sneaky way this is being done is horrific and on a massive scale. I was duped into getting the recalls from the letters sent out by Hyundai and at no point was there transparency about what would and did happen with my vehicle (and many others). No acknowledgement on how most if not all cars who get the update fail about 10 miles after driving it again, and lose power (I was on the highway in the far left lane). I

Today the vehicle was hesitant to start but did. After two stops I turned car off, went into a business. When I came out the car would start but would not go forward or backwards but rev up. I nearly slammed into a curb in the process. I have a video of this.

My cars battery continues to die with a check engine light coming on constantly. The vehicle continues to hesitate. The car door mounting lock broke while driving while my toddler was in the back of the vehicle and the door flew open on a road.

I own a 2017 hyundai veloster with roughly 122,000 miles on it, recently I got in my car to go to work, started the vehicle and exited my apartment complex onto a local road drove roughly a half mile to the on ramp for the highway, the car was just about up to its usual operating temperature when I accelerated down the on ramp and merged into traffic, at this time there were no warning lights, the engine temperature was normal, the car reached roughly 55/60mph and immediately lost power, pressing the gas pedal harder caused the car to lose more power and buck. At this time there were still no warning lights on the dash, the car slowed down to roughly 30/35mph presenting a significant danger to myself and other traffic as this was on a major highway with heavy amounts of traffic. It was approximately 4 miles to the next exit and the only safe place that I could exit the highway/ flow of traffic. The car was turned off and sat for roughly 5 minutes at which time I restarted the vehicle
