Common Problems: Electrical systems problems, seat belt problems, and transmission problems were most commonly reported by 2021 Hyundai Venue owners. Two recalls have been issued for this vehicle, both of which were for exploding seat belt pretensioners.

The process of researching, finding a dealership with the desired vehicle, financing, and finally eventually owning a new vehicle can be draining at times.

The research process especially is complicated by how much information is out there, which can overwhelm consumers and make it difficult to determine which information is accurate.

    2021 Hyundai Venue Electrical System Problems

    Electrical systems control hundreds of different operations in modern vehicles, which unfortunately means there are also hundreds of points of failure that can cause frustration for a consumer.

    Owners of the 2021 Hyundai Venue described infotainment system problems, horn problems, and their vehicle being susceptible to theft.

    Horn problems were more commonly mentioned than others, varying from the horn being very quiet to not working at all. Some consumers mentioned this also impacting their car alarm system.

    2021 Hyundai Venue Seat Belt Problems

    Seat belts are a crucial part of a vehicle’s safety features, so defective ones are serious matters that the vehicle owner should treat with extreme caution.

    Consumers describe their seat belt lights being improperly illuminated (saying they are not buckled when they actually are) and the seat belt suddenly disconnecting.

    The seat belt light likely also chimes at the driver, which could distract them while they are driving.

    Hyundai issued two recalls for exploding seat belt pretensioners, the system that locks seat belts when they are suddenly or sharply pulled.

    These recalls were issued in October 2021 and June 2022, and their NHTSA Recall IDs are 21V796 and 22V458 respectively.

    What 2021 Venue Owners Note

    2021 hyundai venue complaints

    “The seat belt light comes on continually on my new car. I’ve been advised there is a safety recall on the seat belt system / defect and received a letter regarding it. I’ve contacted the dealer several times (3 times) and they always state there is a “nationwide back order” on the parts. Since this is a safety item I believe they need to expedite the correct repair with pressure from your organization!”

    “Recall after recall. Electronic problems. Battery problems. Tire problems. Taillight issues repeatedly. Not comfortable. Ac/heater not very strong. Worst vehicle I’ve owned. Can’t wait to trade it in.”

    “Horn will periodically quit working for days at a time. Will randomly start working again. Safety issue as horn is not always available to alert other drivers when needed.”

    Legal Pathways for Defective Car Owners

    If your car is looking like a lemon, the best way to receive compensation is to make use of your state’s lemon law process.

    Most states have these laws to protect consumers of warrantied vehicles. As soon as you notice something wrong, take your car into an authorized manufacturer dealership for inspection and repair.

    Keep records of each repair attempt, all communications with the manufacturer, and any other information you think might be relevant.

    This documentation is key for a successful lemon law claim because it acts as evidence that your vehicle is in fact a lemon.

    Typically, a car is considered a lemon if it needs two to four repeat repair attempts for the same or similar issue or if it is out of service for 30 days or more because of warranty repairs. The criteria varies state by state.

    If your car qualifies as a lemon, hiring a lemon law lawyer is recommended to assist you with the lemon law process.

    A lawyer can ensure your claim is handled right and boost your chances of success substantially.

    Even for negotiations, a lawyer can help you build a strong case and ensure you make the right decisions throughout the process.

    If you win, you typically can either get a refund or a replacement vehicle. Refunds cover all money spent on buying or leasing the car, including the down payment, monthly payments, interest, taxes, and sometimes extra costs like registration renewal fees or rental car expenses.

    Replacement vehicles will be of a similar make and model compared to the defective one and is often the current year’s version where the consumer may be responsible for any difference in price.

    Manufacturers usually can charge the consumer a fee called the usage fee that represents the time you drove the vehicle without any problems causing it to be a lemon.
