STRUCTURE:BODY
THE PASSENGER REAR (SLIDER) DOOR FAILS TO LATCH CLOSED, EITHER IN POWER-ASSIST OR NON-POWER-ASSIST MODE. AS A RESULT, THE DOOR MAY OPEN SPONTANEOUSLY WHILE PARKED OR WHILE DRIVING. THE MOTORIZED DOOR'S CONTROL PROTOCOLS CAUSE THE DOOR TO OPEN FULLY AFTER THE FAILURE TO LATCH IS DETECTED. IF THE LATCH ELECTRONIC ACTUATOR FAILS, THERE IS NO ACCESS TO MANUALLY CLOSE THE LATCH WHILE THE DOOR IS IN CLOSED POSITION.

AS I RAMPED ON TO A BUSY INTERSTATE, THE FRONT HOOD LATCH GAVE WAY. THE HOOD FLIPPED UP SMASHING MY WINDSHIELD AND BLOCKING ALL FRONT VISION.

ABOUT TWO WEEKS AGO, SAME THING: THE FRONT HOOD LATCH GAVE WAY, BUT THAT TIME I WAS GOING ONLY ABOUT 25 MPH AS I SLOWED DOWN ON A SECONDARY ROAD TO TURN IN TO THE SUBDIVISION WHERE I LIVE. NO HARM DONE TO THE WINDSHIELD THE FIRST TIME. FIRST TIME I ASSUMED I HAD NOT PROPERLY SHUT DOWN THE HOOD. SECOND TIME, THE HOOD LATCH AND SAFETY FAILED.

SIDE SLIDER DOORS NO LONGER OPEN MANUALLY USING INTERNAL OR EXTERNAL HANDLES. REGARDLESS OF CENTER PILLAR "POWER SWITCH" SETTING ABOVE THE MIRROR - THE ONLY WAY THEY OPEN IS USING THE KEY FOB OR THE "OPEN/CLOSE" SWITCH ALSO ABOVE THE MIRROR. THIS IS A VERY CONCERNING HUMAN SAFETY ISSUE. IN AN ACCIDENT SITUATION - SOMEONE MAY NOT ABLE TO GET OUT OF THE VEHICLE. TSB-09-BE-024 MAY BE RELATED.

NHTSA complaint #10865370 — an unverified report by a vehicle owner.
STRUCTURE:BODY
REAR DOOR LATCHES ARE DEFECTIVE. THEY WERE DUE TO BE REPLACED UNDER A RECALL. AFTER THE DEALER COULD NOT GET THE PARTS FOR A YEAR THEY FINALLY REPLACED THEM WITH THE SAME PART ON ONE SIDE AND ONLY INSPECTED THE OTHER SIDE. THE RECALL WAS TO REPLACE BOTH WITH A NEW STYLE LATCH. LATCH STILL FAILS AND HYUANDAI CLAIMS THE RECALL IS COMPLETE. THE DEALER HAS TOLD HYUNDAI THAT THEY ONLY INSPECTED THE LATCH WHICH IS NOT THE SCOPE OF THE WORK TO BE PERFORMED. I HAVE TRIED TO RESOLVE THIS WITH HYUNDAI AND THEY JUST CIRCLE ME BACK TO THE DEALER.
