2022 Hyundai Accent problems

“I was driving my 2022 Hyundai Accent (VIN [XXX] ) when the brakes suddenly failed without warning. When I pressed the brake pedal, the vehicle did not slow down properly resultina in a crash Immediately after the crash, the vehicle caught fire According to the fire department report, the fire originated in the engine compartment and was classified as unintentional/ accidental There were no prior warning lights or known brake issues before this incident. The failure was sudden and unexpected. This incident raises serious safetv concerns regarding a potential defect involving the braking system and/or electrical components. The vehicle is currently preserved and available for inspection”

When there is no passenger aboard, the "Passenger Air Bag" Off sign lights up as it should and when there is a passenger aboard, the "Off" light goes off as it should. What doesn't happen is when there is a passenger aboard and the seat belt was not fastened and the car is being driven, there is no indication (either by beeper or dash light) that the belt is not fastened!

The second car with the same problem is VIN [XXX] .”

This matches a documented defect pattern currently under federal class action litigation involving this manufacturer's IVT/CVT transmissions in this and related models (2020+ model years), specifically sudden loss of power and acceleration failure. Prior to the repair, the issue was reported verbally to a service advisor but not logged on the invoice. Separately, at the same service location, a coolant reservoir was found completely empty within hours of a repair visit where the dealer stated it could not reproduce a related stuttering complaint during a road test, and no diagnostic codes were stored. A rear brake light has also remained inoperative across two dealer visits without being flagged, and was later found by a third party to require dealer-specific tooling to access — confirming it was not a simple user fix. The vehicle remains drivable but the transmission defect poses an ongoing safety risk given its documented tendency toward…”

“Power steering power breaks, acceleration. Head rest, blind spot. Problems. Bought car ,driving to get home mirror was not in place needed to get on left lane to get under bridge crossing traffic was rushing through so fast I could adjust mirror so I turned to right on road the steering wheel glided so fast it frightened me.
