2005 Hyundai XG 350 problems

“1) The vehicle idle is too high. It jerks forward every time I'm at a stop then I want to go forward. I have almost ran into the back of other cars while waiting at a stop sign. 2) The bolts and Subframe is coming detached from the car. It has been confirmed by dealership and franchise auto repair places (2 of them) that the car motor is knocking around and the subframe is loose! I've currently spent over $2000 alone in repairs on the suspension, rack and pinion & oil leak & manifold intake issues since purchase in 2019. Besides the check engine light turning on and off, there was no prior warning of the subframe and/or it's bolts being rusted out prior to purchase or prior to mechanics telling me about this dangerous repair needing done. Why is the 2001-2004 XG350 have recalls on this but not the 2005 year model that is exactly the same specs and materials used as the 2004????????????????????”

“MY 2005 HYUNDAI XG350 HAS EXPERIENCED SUA, (SUDDEN UNWANTED ACCELERATION) TWICE IN THE LAST 3 MONTHS. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS AND DANGEROUS SAFETY PROBLEM THAT HAS BEEN REPORTED TO HYUNDAI MOTOR AMERICA AND THE NHTSA TOO MANY TIMES. TWICE, I PULLED INTO A PARKING SPOT AND WHILE APPLYING THE BRAKE, THE CAR ACCELERATED AND I WAS UNABLE TO STOP IT , EVEN WHEN I STEPPED ON THE BRAKE VERY HARD. I WONDER WHY, AFTER SO MANY COMPLAINTS TO HYUNDAI MOTOR AMERICA AND THE NHTSA, THAT THIS VERY DANGEROUS SAFETY ISSUE DIDN'T WARRANT A RECALL, SINCE THIS PROBLEM GOES BACK TO 2006.”

“ON MONDAY 2 MAY 2011 AT APPROX. 1645, I WAS OPERATING MY 2005 HYUNDAI XG-350 L IN THE CVS PARKING LOT ON COLUMBIA PIKE IN ARLINGTON, VIRGINIA. I PULLED SLOWLY INTO A PARKING SPACE IN FRONT OF THE BUILDING. WHILE MY FOOT WAS ON THE BRAKE PEDAL, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY ACCELERATED SPEED TOWARD THE BUILDING. I DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL FIRMLY BUT THE VEHICLE CONTINUE FORWARD OVER A PARKING BERM AND CURB STONE BEFORE STRIKING THE BUILDING. DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE WAS EXTENSIVE. THE BUILDING WAS ALSO DAMAGED AND TWO CVS EMPLOYEES REPORTED SUFFERING MINOR INJURIES FROM THE INCIDENT. *TR”

The contact stated upon taking the vehicle to the dealer for an oil change, she was informed that the subframe was severely corroded and had holes and cracks in the subframe. The vehicle was not repaired. The dealer informed the contact that the failure was associated with NHTSA Campaign Number: 09V124000 (Suspension). The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that the vehicle could not be repaired under the recall as the VIN was not included. A case was opened. The failure mileage was approximately 136,000.”

“The under body frame and oil container rotted and the frame came apart. Problem was noticed with oil change. I noticed that all of these models years were recalled except 2005 ... why not? They were virtually the same car. I want a repair or a rebate for this manufacturer problem since I have less then 100000 miles on this 15 year old car.”
