2007 HYUNDAI AZERA Complaints

BOTH DRIVER AND PASSENGER SEATS DO NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY. DRIVER SEAT TWICE HAS OPERATED WHILE DRIVING WITHOUT TOUCHING CONTROLS. SEAT MOVES ALL THE WAY FORWARD PINNING DRIVER TO THE STEERING WHEEL. PASSENGER SIDE RECLINE DOES NOT WORK. WE DO NOT TOUCH THE CONTROLS ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AS THE RECLINE FUNCTION WILL NOT RETRACT WHEN ATTEMPTED.

WHEN BRAKE PEDAL IS PRESSED AND RELEASED THE BRAKE LIGHT STAYS ON. THIS BRAKE LIGHT STAYING ON EFFECTS CRUISE CONTROL.

HEAD GASKET CORRODES AND STARTS LEAKING OIL ONTO ALTERNATOR CAUSING THE ALTERNATOR TO SHORT OUT AND FLASH ENGINE LIGHTS. OTHER MAKES WITH SAME ENGINE FOR HYUNDAI HAD A RECALL FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. THE 2007 HYUNDAI AZERA WAS NOT. I HAD REPAIRS TO THIS PROBLEM IN THE AMOUNT OF $1500+

THE LEFT REAR DOOR OPENED WHILE DRIVING AS THE DOOR IS UNABLE TO BE CLOSED AND REMAIN CLOSED. THIS IS NOT A LOCKING PROBLEM AS THE DOOR WILL NOT STAY IN A CLOSED POSITION

I RECEIVED A HYUNDAI RECALL NOTICE IN DECEMBER REGARDING THE POWER-ADJUSTABLE DRIVER SEAT. NO LOS ANGELES AREA HYUNDAI DEALER HAS THE REQUIRED PART AND I'M TOLD THEY ARE ALL ON BACK ORDER WITH NO KNOWN DELIVERY DATE. SO I'M DRIVING AN UNSAFE CAR WITH NO WAY TO REPAIR IT. *TR

DASHBOARD HAS OUTLINE AIRBAG CRACK ON PASSENGER SIDE. DRIVER SEAT MOVES FORWARD, TILTS FORWARD, MOVES BACK WHILE DRIVING. *TR

OUR AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON ALL THE TIME. BACK IN OCT 2014, CAR HAD 119K MILES, WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALER BECAUSE THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE SEAT BELT TENSIONER. THEY SAID THAT THE CAR WAS SALVAGE TITLE SO NOTHING COULD BE DONE (SALVAGE TITLE DUE TO HAIL DAMAGE). THEY SAID THE RECALL HAD ALREADY BEEN PERFORMED. THEY CHARGED US FOR THE DIAGNOSTIC AND RECOMMENDED WE REPLACE THE RIGHT (PASSENGER) SEAT BELT RETRACTOR ASSEMBLY BUT WE DID NOT DO THIS. ALSO, THERE ARE 2 CRACKS IN THE PASSENGER SIDE DASHBOARD THAT WERE THERE WHEN WE BOUGHT THE CAR. MY HUSBAND THOUGHT IT WAS PROBABLY SUN DAMAGE, BUT I HAVE SINCE SEEN IN THE NHTSA COMMENTS THAT THIS IS AN ISSUE DUE TO AIRBAG BELOW.
