A few complaints as filed, shortened and with personal details removed. The first ones are among the most serious reports for this model year; the rest are typical.
My daughter was driving the car and about to go around a turn when she says her steering locked up and she ran over a curb on the opposite side of the road, popping two tires. She was going slow enough at the time that there were no injuries, only damage to the car. We told the dealership about the incident and had it towed to the dealership. The dealership did not thoroughly address the problem. When I took the car from the dealership I tried to jiggle the keys as I was driving.
Just picked up 2021 venue sel on monday for my 23 year old daughter and drove 1200 miles to tx. Car play continuously drops out and no way to connect through USB. The only way to have navigtion is to use the wireless and several times the maps dropped out although we had cellular service and the map went blank while navigating and missed turnoff and almost had accident because it also locked up the iphone screen. Went to two hyundai dealerships in san antonio and neither had ever seen this problem.
The horn started losing volume but would regain it back once the weather warmed up. I have to park overnight outdoors for work and when it snows and gets between 20-25 degrees outside, the horn starts being symptomatic. Now it doesn't work at all and it affects my alert and safety system because I have no way of warning other drivers or pedestrians around me. The other fault I have noticed is that the applecar play or the display itself loses its connection between apple carplay and the display.
The contact owns a 2021 Hyundai Venue. The contact stated that the horn had become inoperable. The contact also stated that the horn had been replaced on three previous occasions for the same failure. The local dealer and manufacturer were notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 7,000.
