The back door latch does not unlock so neither back passanger doors will open at all. If something were to happen where we need to evacuate quickly this puts people in the back at a huge risk. I have taken it to get repaired and they want at least $250 for each door. There were no warnings one day the door just stopped opening and then the other stopped. It’s been over a year now. There are multiple videos on youtube on how to “fix” it for this specific vehicle so i don’t understand how this hasn’t been recalled already.
My car started smoking while off and parked after the recall was initiated, and i went through my insurance but they can’t find the problem and i also contacted hyundai who has never contacted me back. My car is still sitting at auto nation hyundai and nothing has been done. I’m not driving that car with my kids or anyone in it after witnessing that and it’s a symptom of the recall. The car is not about to burn with us in it.

The engine light came on on 4/12/2024 and i took it back to the dealer immediately. They called me on 4/15/2024 stating that their engineers and techs had had problems on the transmission recently installed on it due to manufacturing and/or faulty parts, and to replace that transmission with a new one. Still waiting to get the vehicle back at this point in time.
