  2007 HYUNDAI AZERA (6 CYLD). ENGINE INTERMITTENTLY REVS TO HIGH SPEED WHEN BRAKING. SEVERAL TRIPS TO THE DEALER HAVE FAILED TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE. THIS OCCURS AS THE CAR IS DOWNSHIFTING (USUALLY AS PRESSURE IS APPLIED TO THE BRAKE). *TR

  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 WAS BEING REPAIRED, HE INFORMED ME THAT BECAUSE THE CAR WAS NOT UNDER WARRANTY, I WOULD HAVE TO PAY $130 DOLLARS. THE BTS WIRE IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT HAS ALREADY BEEN REPAIRED, AT 24,144 MILES, SO I BELIEVE THAT THERE COULD BE A CONNECTION BETWEEN THE FACT THAT THERE WAS A FAULTY WIRE IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT AND THE ISSUES I AM NOW HAVING WITH THE FRONT DRIVER'S SEAT. *TR

• 10/28/2013· AIR BAGS

  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 ON THIS WEBSITE I HAVE FOUND REPAIR ESTIMATES RANGING FROM FREE UP TO $3000. APPARENTLY, HYUNDAI SEES THIS PROBLEM AS A POTENTIAL PROFIT CENTER. WHEN I GOT ON THIS WEB SITE TO FILE THIS COMPLAINT, I FOUND OUT THERE HAVE BEEN NUMEROUS OTHER COMPLAINTS REGARDING THE AIR BAGS FOR THE 2007 AZERA. ALSO, THERE WAS A RECALL NOTED FOR REPAIRING THE AIR BAG/SEAT BELT PROBLEM ON MY MODEL AZERA; I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED OF THE 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 THE AIR BAG. I AM UNABLE TO UTILIZE CORRECT VISUAL TOOLS SUCH AS SIDE, REAR MIRRORS, OR OBSERVE SAFELY THE SURROUNDING OF MY CAR. ANOTHER MAJOR CONCERN IS WHEN TRYING TO ADJUST THE SEAT IT MOVES FORWARD (NOT ABLE TO USE KNOBS TO CONTROL THE TENSION) THE SEAT BELT TIGHTENS AND I HAVE TO UNLOCK MY SEAT BELT FOR FEAR OF IT BECOMING TOO TIGHT PUTTING ALL PASSENGERS IN THE IN DANGER OF INJURY. PLEASE HELP AS I AM RETIRED AND HAVE HAD TO LIMIT THE USE OF A VEHICLE THAT I AM STILL PAYING A NOTE ON.
