On 04/26/23 a lamp assy-rear comb outside Qty: 1 installed 92402-K5000, was replaced due to condensation inside the taillight. On 09/22/23 both taillights, lamp assy-rear comb outside Qty: 1 installed 92401-K5000, was replaced and lamp assy-rear comb outside Qty: 1 installed 92402-K5000, were replaced due to condensation inside the taillights. Should the condensation in the taillights cause the brake and or turn signal lights to fail this could cause a serious accident! I have an appointment at 1:00 PM at my dealership Hyundai of Anderson in Anderson, SC to have both taillights inspected for the third time, tomorrow on 10/10/2023 because of condensation inside them. I might add that the condensation has occurred when there has been no rain on the vehicle and the vehicle has not been washed. My Santa Cruz is also housed in a completely enclosed garage.

Vehicle has 2k miles on it and it experiences a loss of power from a stop when accelerating. The vehicle shakes as if it is not getting enough gas similar to a manual transmission if you took your foot off the clutch when the vehicle was in 1st gear. It happens about once a week at random times, no codes produced. Dealership advises with no codes displayed and their inability to recreate the concern there is nothing the manufacturer will allow them to do. Dealership has had the vehicle for over 3 weeks. This is becoming a more common issue, yet nothing is being done by manufacturer to address for consumers. If my wife or I are operating the vehicle and cannot get out of the way of an oncoming vehicle due to a sudden loss of acceleration this poses a great risk for serious bodily harm or injury.

Rain sensor wiper function. On this setting, even in consistent rain, the system will jump to slow wiper intervals all the way to the fastest setting...with no change in the amount or rain hitting the windshield. It seems confused and searching for the proper speed. It becomes dangerous when it arrives at a very slow intermittent setting for rain that requires a faster interval for adequate removal for the driver to see properly.

Car will not start properly and shuts itself off after which a strong odor of burning plastic is present in the vehicle. It will periodically do this almost once a day if not every other day. I have taken it in to the dealer 4 times last time they had my car for two weeks and could not replicate porblem because they only drive it 5 miles and it will not happen unless vehicle is being daily driven. I have found numerous other owners with the same complaint. Hyundai will not authorize shop to work on car and advises them to release it to me each time. They only attempted to fix once and gave it back to me all over times. The car is at the dealer again and they will not work on it till october to try to find the problem again. I will not drive this car due to risk of car deciding to turn it self off or start on fire due to whatever is melting when this happenns car is still at red mcombs northwest as of today.

I went to my Hyundai dealer because the tunneau cover is taking in a lot of water when it rains. All sides are taking in the water. This even occurs when I go to the car wash. The whole person of the cover is to keep things dry and from things flying out of the bed of the truck. The dealer spent four hours trying to resolve it and contacted Hyundai tech line for assistance. They were told that they know of the issue, but there is no fix for it because enough people have not registered a complaint about this situation. While it might not be a hazard, it makes the bed unable to be used. I have to have it shop vacuumed to be able to put things into it.
