Problems with 2013 Hyundai Veloster VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL

On average, the 2013 Hyundai Veloster starts to “feel” problems with the VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL and its various aspects after 56 643 miles.

Recently reported VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL problems on 2013 Hyundai Veloster

Driving on interstate, all lights flashed on, engine light remained on and my car stalled and would not accelerate. i had to take it out of drive, put it in sport mode and then back to drive. it would shake violently if i went above 45 miles an hour, i was 130 miles from home. this is not first time this has happened, have made previous complaints

This has actually happened multiple times, each time when turning.the first time was turning left out of a parking lot, my car refused to accelerate, i had to put it into neutral and then back into drive, it finally started driving. the second time, was driving and turned left into an intersection and it just stopped. i had to turn it off and then on again before it would move. i am lucky no one was behind me. the 3rd time i was not alone in the car and again i turned left into an intersection and it just stopped. emergency blinkers on and again, i had to turn off the car and turn it on again for it it move. the most recent was this morning when i turned right and like before, it just wouldn't move. i had to turn emergency blinkers on, and turn off and turn on car again. living in a busy city with people that are not paying attention all the time, this is really starting to be worrisome.

'takata recall' my veloster has been stalling since i leased it there's always a problem when speeding up and has been taken to the dealership for service more than 3 times for the same problem and has been out of service for more than 35 days this has happened to me on highway, stationary and on streets it's u just that i have to pay for a vehicle like this when i should be getting my moneys worth

Electronic gear motor overheated and left vehicle in overdrive on the highway in stopped/slowed traffic. once in park or neutral, transmission is disabled and will not go into any gear. had to push the vehicle off the road to have towed. dealer called the part the 'gear motor actuator' and that he has done numerous replacements and the problem is ongoing.

1) steering wheel remote controls for radio & phone have been intermittent since original purchase; 2) air conditioning system does not completely restrict outside/engine warm air coming into cabin when not using a/c, for instance when windows down; 3) clock does not work consistently (it only recently just started working all by itself.

The problem initially started with an errant tire pressure warning when in reality i had a faulty wheel speed sensor (right front). the tire warning light would clear when the ignition was turned off then back on but the problem would persist and progressed to the electronic steering disabling (no steering), the speed controls not functioning (no speedometer or cruise control), the traction control disabling (no traction control), and most worrisome is that the built in keyless ignition safety systems were disabled. this meant that the keyless ignition button (postioned 2 inches from the gear shift lever!) would and did turn the car off if inadvertatnly bumped. i down shifted on the freeway from 6th to 5th at approximately 65 mph and bumped the button completely shutting off the entire car. 65 mph and no control is horribly dangerous. the design is inherently flawed if a wheel speed sensor can disable the entire car at freeway speeds.

Driver turned right from a stop sign onto a highway and began accelerating to 55 m.p.h when driver reached approximately 35 m.p.h, he heard a loud bang in the engine compartment at which point the vehicle lost power. the vehicle was still running but the driver could not accelerate or throttle. the driver pulled off to the side of the road when the driver noticed white smoke accumulating and the smell of coolant or antifreeze coming into the interior of the vehicle. the smoke was coming from the engine compartment and became darker in color. the engine then went up in flames. *tr
