On march 4, 2020, heading home at night on a curvy mountain road my car (2006 hyundai santa fe) suddenly jerked, started to accelerate to over 80 miles hour. At the same time half of the panel light behind part of the rpm's and half behind the mph went out; the rest of the panel was still lit up; i was heading down the curvy road accelerating heading quickly towards an 18 wheeler when i tried to brake, my brake pedal would not move and my car kept accelerating (i was not stepping on the gas pedal). I quickly dropped my car into low gear and maneuvered around the 18-wheeler and trying the brakes, the emergency brakes, and as quickly as it started up, it stopped, and my car started to drive normal (except the panel lights). On my way home (march 5th), it happened again while driving down the curvy mountain road at night! As i begin descending the curvy road (driving 40mph in the right lane), my car suddenly began accelerating again up to 90mph! There were not as many people on the road, so i was able to maneuver it by dropping down into low gear and as i began ascending the mountain road, the unintended acceleration stopped, and the car drove normal. Each incident lasted about 5 minutes. On march 6, 2020, i took my car to the mechanic and ran a diagnostic and did not find a cause. He told me to call the hyundai dealership to see if there were any recalls. The dealership informed me to contact hyundai headquarters, which i did. I reported my issue and made a claim on march 6, 2020. I was told to take my car to capital hyundai dealership and hyundai headquarters would send a forensic engineer out to investigate the issue. They told me to not drive my car and have it towed. I received a call from hyundai headquarters informing me the dealership ran a diagnostic on my car and did not find anything wrong and could not duplicate the unintended acceleration.

The air bag light is constantly on. When i turn the car on the passenger restraint light goes on to show restraint system off.. However when there is nobody sitting in front seat the light goes out and it should stay on

My car began to suddenly and automatically accelerate while driving on the freeway on august 4, 2019. The speed accelerated up to about 80mph before being able to get the car to slow down. The brakes were extremely difficult to depress. I had to keep my foot on the brake pedal and press as hard as i could in order to keep the car from accelerating again. Thank god, there were no cars directly in front of me or on the side of my car because this would have caused a very serious accident. I was eventually able to pull over onto the shoulder, but i was unable to completely stop the car from moving even though shifting to park. The car would not stop moving forward until i shut the engine off, which caused a very loud noise. My car had to be towed to the closest hyundai dealer. The service man at the dealership diagnosed, repaired, inspected as well as test drove the car. The cost for repairs were close to $900.00. Now, on the way home after picking up my car from being repaired on august 8, 2019, the same thing happened again. This time it was on a city street while trailing my husband at about 40mph when my car began to accelerate again. And again, the only way to stop the car was to press the brake as hard as i could, put it in park and turn off the engine. For anyone to drive this car is very unsafe and dangerous. I am afraid to drive this car again even if it is repaired . This could have been a very serious or fatal accident. The car was towed again to a hyundai dealership nearby. I called hyundai headquarters customer service to report the incident and to find out if there were any recalls on my car. I was told that there are currently no recalls. A case manager called me back but could not really help. She said they could possibly help with the reimbursement for a car rental if i decided to rent a car while my car is being repaired.

Tl* the contact owns a 2006 hyundai santa fe. When the contact shifted the gear in reverse, the vehicle accelerated backwards on its own. As a result, the vehicle crashed into a brick wall. The driver then shifted into the drive position and the failure recurred. As a result, the vehicle drove forward through the neighbor's fence before crashing into a parked vehicle. There were no injuries and a police report was filed. The driver stated that the brakes were inoperable during the failures. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The dealer and manufacturer were not notified of the failures. The failure mileage was 155,000. *js

Air bag warning light remained on after initial startup display. Code reader indicated B1511 code, short between driver side seat belt buckle and battery. Further evaluation demonstrated that seat belt warning light did not display at all, whether belt was buckled or unbuckled. Internet research suggests that this fault may prevent air bag from functioning in the event of an accident. To evaluate further, airbag warning light was reset to check for recurrence. Code recurred. It was noted that code could be prevented and seat belt warning light would display properly if the driver seat belt buckle was pressed downward and slightly toward the driver. This was consistent with observation that following a reset, air bag light recurred when vehicle turned left, causing driver to shift against buckle. Intermittent failure of seat belt light was observed while vehicle was parked and also moving slowly. Driver is unwilling to remove seat belt during highway driving to evaluate further. Hyundai motor america has denied responsibility for repair of this safety issue. Internet searches indicate that this is not an isolated occurrence, and further that there have been recalls on vehicles built on the same or similar platform.

Car airbag warning light has been on intermittently while car was in factory warranty (bumper to bumper, 5 year 60k miles). Reported to dealer while within warranty, dealer only cleared it without investigating cause. Warning light intermittently on and off over the years, but never thought it a problem until 2018 ma state inspection would fail if airbag light on. Had code read at hyundai dealership and came out as B1448, occupant classification mat defect. Researched and found same code was recalled in 2007, 2008 for sonata, but not for my santa fe. Contacted hyundai usa and requested they replace it for free. They declined and blamed me for not further pursuing it while vehicle was within warranty.
