2007 HYUNDAI ENTOURAGE SLOWED FOR A SCHOOL BUS WAS REAR ENDED AT HIGH SPEED BY A PICK UP TRUCK. THE CAR IS NOW LISTED AS TOTALED. NO AIRBAG IN THE BACK OF THE VAN WENT OFF. IF MY DAUGHTER WAS IN THE REAR BACK SEAT SHE EASILY WOULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY INJURED IF NOT DEAD. WHY DIDN'T THE AIRBAG ABOVE HER HEAD (WHERE SHE NORMALLY WOULD HAVE SIT IF SHE WAS IN THE CAR) GO OFF? *TR
WE BOUGHT A NEW HYUNDAI ENTOURAGE IN 07 THE FRONT TIRE WILL NOT HOLD AIR. THE KEY LESS REMOTE ENTRY HAS BEEN REPLACED AND IS STILL NOT WORKING. THE VAN WAS IN A ACCIDENT INVOLVING A POLE. THE VAN WAS GOING ABOUT 35 SLIDE ON ICE AND SMASHED THE HOLE FRONT END OF THE VAN. THE AIRBAGS DIDN'T DEPLOY BUT THE LIGHT FOR THE AIRBAGS IS ON. POSSIBLY INDICATING THEY DID DEPLOY BUT DIDN'T. WE THINK THIS COULD BE ALL ELECTRICAL. SOMEONE FOR HYUNDAI MOTOR AMERICA WILL BE OUT TO LOOK AT THE VAN IN 45 DAYS. WE WOULD LIKE THE VAN TOTALED. DUE TO NOT FEELING SAFE WITH THE AIRBAGS. *TR
DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 56-57 MPH DOWN A STATE ROUTE RD WHEN THE HOOD CAME UNLATCHED AND FLEW UP AND SHATTERED THE WINDSHIELD AND BREAKING THE HOODS HYDRAULIC LIFT ARM. I FOUND OUT THE HOOD LATCH WAS RECALLED BY HYUNDAI PRIOR TO THIS HAPPENING AND WE DIDN'T KNOW. HYUNDAI WAS CONTACTED AND THEY ARE REFUSING TO ASSIST WITH GETTING THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP AND TELLING US THAT THEY ARE ONLY RESPONSIBLE FOR THE HOOD LATCH AND NOT THE OTHER DAMAGE THAT WAS CAUSED BY THE HOOD LATCH FAILING WHILE DRIVING.
12 YR. SITTING IN 3RD. ROW PASSENGER SIDE GOT "MIDDLE" SEAT BELT TANGLED AROUND HIS NECK. HE WAS UNABLE TO BREATH, I COULDN'T GET BELT UNTANGLED AND THE SEAT BELT DIDN'T HAVE ENOUGH SLACK TO GET IT OFF OF HIM. I HAD TO CUT THE SEAT IN ORDER FOR HIM TO BREATHE. I WAS UNAWARE THAT IT COULD BE RELEASED WITH A POINTED OBJECT THAT CAN BE PUSHED INTO A TINY SILVER AREA WHICH RELEASES IT. HE IS FINE, BUT IT WAS VERY SCARY. *TR

The ABS warning light was illuminated. The contact pulled over and exited the vehicle while it caught fire. No injury was sustained. The fire department arrived on the scene and extinguished the fire. The contact was not aware if there were fire department and police reports filed.

The VIN was unavailable.
MINIVAN WAS PARKED AT NIGHT IN OUR HOME GARAGE AND SPONTANEOUSLY WENT ON FIRE. ALL RECOMMENDED FACTORY MAINTENANCE WAS ALWAYS PERFORMED. NO RECALL FOR OUR VEHICLE EXISTED. SIGNIFICANT RISK TO PROPERTY AND LOSS OF LIFE. PUSHED IT OUT OF GARAGE TO SAVE FAMILY AND HOME.
The valve over eventually leaks oil that drips down on to the alternator. This cause the electrical system to fail, the battery and brake lights come on. Then slowly all lights come on as battery shuts down. This is a known issue with this engine. This happened to me yesterday while driving at night leaving the car unable to drive. When the battery completely shuts down you cannot even move the vehicle out of Park, as electric is needed to disengage the the shifter from park, so you cannot even push the vehicle off of the road. Hyundai has a recall for the exact same engine in the Veracruz. Here are two videos showing issues. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RSLmj8Gqc1Q https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h9Q78so3GPI https://www.carproblemzoo.com/hyundai/entourage/engine-oil-leaking-problems.php The VIN was not included in NHTSA campaign number: 14v415000 (engine and engine cooling).
VEHICLE IN MOTION AND VAN OUT OF CONTROL RELATED TO THE CORROSION OF CONTROL ARM. CHILDREN (3) IN THE CAR. RECALLED 2007 AND 2008 VEHICLES! WHY NOT MINE? LIVE IN NEBRASKA WITH SALT-INFESTED ROADS AND THIS VAN HAS MANY ISSUES! MY VIN NUMBER NOT ASSOCIATED WITH THE RECALL WHICH IS COMPLETELY UNFAIR. HAVE PUT SO MUCH MONEY IN THIS VEHICLE WHICH WILL NOT RUN. THE DEALORSHIP WANTS TO CHARGE ME 2700.00 TO FIX THEIR ERROR IN MANUFACTURING! NOT TO MENTION THE TIRES, ELECTRICAL, LATCHES! I PAID 29,000. FOR THIS VEHICLE AND IT IS THE LIMITED EDITION, THE BEST THEY OFFERED. THEY HAVE MADE SO MUCH MONEY OFF OF US AND DO NOT STAND BY THEIR VEHICLE. MY MOM WAS KILLED BY A FAULTY AIRBAG THAT SHOULD HAVE NEVER OF WENT OFF! I AM SO ANGRY AS WELL AS BROKE. WHY OR HOW CAN THIS EVEN HAPPEN? WHAT CAN I DO WHEN I HAVE NO MONEY LEFT AS WELL AS A VEHICLE? THEY FIND EVERY REASON NOT TO FIX. I NEED HELP, NOT SURE WHAT TO DO NEXT OR WHAT MY OPTIONS ARE.
I WAS DRIVING THE SPEED LIMIT WHEN ALL OF SUDDEN MY HOOD FLEW UP, SMASHED MY WINDSHIELD, THANK GOD I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER AND NO ONE WAS HURT BUT, MY HOOD WAS CRUNCHED AND MY WINDSHIELD SHATTERED, SET UP AN APPT. WITH HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP AS THEY TOLD ME THE LATCH FOR HOOD HAD BEEN RECALLED. ON MY WAY HOME STOPPED FOR GAS, PULLED IN BEHIND A MAN WITH HIS YOUNG CHILD IN A CAR SEAT WHEN THE VAN JUST STARTED TO ACCELERATE, I COULDN'T STOP, EVEN HOLDING BOTH FEET ON THE BRAKE PEDDLE, MY HUSBAND REACHED OVER AND TURNED THE VAN OFF. WE SLAMMED INTO THE BACK OF THE CAR WITH THE BABY IN IT, AGAIN, THANK GOD NO ONE WAS HURT BUT HAD THESE BEEN DIFFERENT CIRCUMSTANCES WHO KNOWS WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED. HAVE NO IDEA WHAT CAUSED THE VAN TO ACCELERATE, AND AM REALLY AFRAID OF DRIVING NOW. *TR
COMING INTO MY DRIVEWAY, WHICH I HAD DONE THOUSANDS OF TIMES BEFORE, PUSHED THE OPEN BUTTON ON THE VAN'S MIRROR, MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE WAITING FOR THE GARAGE DOOR TO OPEN, MY DAUGHTER TO GET OUT. HOWEVER, BEFORE SHE COULD REMOVE HER SEAT BELT, THE VAN LUNGED FORWARD WITH SUCH SPEED, WE WERE BOTH SCREAMING IN SHOCK. IT SMASHED THRU THE GARAGE DOOR LUNGED WITH SUCH FORCE TEARING DOWN THE CLOSET IN THE BACK OF THE GARAGE, RUNNING OVER LAWN MOWER AND POWER TOOLS, AND SMASHING EVERYTHING IN ITS PATH. MY DAUGHTER, WHO IS A PROFESSIONAL DRIVER, SLAMMED IT INTO PARK, AND I TURNED OFF THE KEY, STILL IN SHOCK. MY FOOT FELT LIKE IT WENT THRU THE FLOOR I WAS ON IT WITH SUCH FORCE. MY HUSBAND HEARD THE CRASH (HE IS NEARLY DEAF)SO HE RUSHED TO PULL ME OUT AS I WAS STUNNED, MY DAUGHTER GOT OUT, CALLED 911 AS SHE SMELLED GAS. THE FIRE DEPT CAME AND TURNED OFF THE GAS, DID A METER READING AND THERE WAS NO NATURAL GAS LEAKS. IN ALL MY 60+ YRS OF DRIVING ALL TYPES OF VEHICLES, ALL OVER THE WORLD, MY HUSBAND IS RETIRED MILITARY, I HAVE NEVER HAD ANYTHING LIKE THIS HAPPEN. WE WERE PLANNING ON PACKING THE VAN TO LEAVE ON A TRIP, IF I WOULD HAVE BEEN ON A HWY OR SCHOOL ZONE OR AT A BUSY SECTION OF TOWN, I SHUDDER TO THINK WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED, PERHAPS WE WOULD HAVE BEEN KILLED OR WORSE, OTHERS WOULD HAVE BEEN INJURED OR KILLED. I'VE DRIVEN WITH THE SAME INSURANCE CO. FOR 59 YRS AND HAVE A SUPER GOOD DRIVING RECORD, TO THIS DAY, I CAN NOT GET INTO A CAR OR VAN AND DRIVE...THIS HAS REALLY MADE ME REALIZE, THAT CARS/VANS ARE UNSAFE TODAY. WHEN MY HUSBAND TALKED TO OUR MECHANIC'S, THEY TOLD HIM, IT HAPPENS OFTEN, THAT A GARAGE DOOR OPENER CAN SET OFF THE ELECTRONICS IN A VAN OR CAR AND IT WILL LUNGE FORWARD OUT OF CONTROL. OMG SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE TO MAKE THEM SAFER NOT MORE GADGETS. *TR
DRIVING A 2007 HYUNDAI ENTOURAGE VAN ON THE MORNING OF DECEMBER 30, 2011 WE CAME TO A STOP FOR A RED LIGHT. MY FOOT WAS STILL ON THE BRAKE PEDAL WHEN TWO SECONDS LATER WE WERE REARED ENDED BY ANOTHER VEHICLE THAT WAS TRAVELING AT APPROXIMATELY 45-50 MPH. MY SPOUSE AND I EXPERIENCED SEVERE WHIPLASH. THE DRIVER OF THE VEHICLE THAT CRASHED INTO US CLAIMED SHE NEVER SAW OUR STOP LIGHTS. AFTER THE INCIDENT, I DISCOVERED THERE WERE TWO RECALLS FOR OUR VAN (06V356000 & 09V122000) RELATED TO INTERMITTENT BRAKE LIGHT SWITCHES. WE PURCHASED THE ENTOURAGE IN 2009, BUT NEVER WAS TOLD OR NOTIFIED OF EITHER RECALL. ALTHOUGH THE OTHER DRIVER WAS A FAULT, I BELIEVE THAT SHE MAY HAVE BEEN TELLING THE TRUTH ABOUT NOT SEEING THE BRAKE LIGHTS. THERE ARE OTHER RECALLS ON THE 2007 HYUNDAI ENTOURAGE SINCE THEN (13V113000 AND 13V556000) BUT WE RECEIVED A NOTICE OF EITHER. I PLAN TO SUBMIT A SEPARATE COMPLAINT REGARDING THE OTHER RECALLS ISSUES. WHAT WORRIES ME IS THAT WERE ARE NOT TOLD ABOUT OR RECEIVE RECALL NOTICES OR DEFECTIVE PART ISSUES. I'M GUESSING THAT NHTSA/ODI WOULD RECEIVE MORE COMPLAINTS, BUT PEOPLE ARE NOT AWARE OF THE SHADY NON-DISCLOSURE PRACTICES OF DEALERSHIPS. THERE ARE OTHER ISSUES THAT I HAVEN'T SUBMITTED, BUT WILL TALK WITH YOU ABOUT IF YOU SO DESIRE. *TR
MY VAN WRENCHED INTO A POWER POLE BREAKING THE POLE GOING OVER A LARGE CURB AND DOWN AN EMBANKMENT. AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. I HAVE HAD PREVIOUS PROBLEMS WITH THE AIR BAG LIGHT STAYING ON AND DEALER SERVICE STATED THAT IT WAS FROM LOW VOLTAGE. *TR REPLACED BATTERY AT THAT TIME.
