Braking system failed to brake properly. It feels like even though the brakes were pressed all the way down, the car did not brake as it should. Also, the automatic collision avoidance system did not respond.

The horn on my vehicle all of a sudden does not work. Im afraid that i'll be in a accident because im unable to blow it. Plenty times ive almost been in a accident & it was literally nothing i could do because my horn isnt working. secondly, something is going in with the suspension on the right side of my car. Too much rattling noise. I see in the complaints im not the only one having this issue. third but not least, the ac isnt working. blowing out hot air. ive also seen where alot of people is complaining about that Ive had this car only a year and it has too many recall issues.

My car was hit from the rear by another vehicle while I was traveling with my [XXX] daughter. The impact was very strong, and one of the tires came off. None of the airbags deployed, and I feel there may have been an issue with the airbag system. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

I own a 2022 Hyundai Elantra N Line. The HVAC system began malfunctioning when the center/forward-facing dashboard vents stopped producing airflow, while the side vents continued to work. Changing the HVAC mode does not properly redirect airflow to the center vents as intended. The vehicle was inspected and diagnosed, and I was informed that the ventilator lever/mode mechanism is broken or not functioning properly. This appears consistent with a known issue described in Hyundai Technical Service Bulletin 25-HA-001H/26-HA-001H concerning the ventilator lever and loss of airflow from the forward-facing center vents. This failure affects my ability to properly control where air is directed inside the vehicle, including directing airflow toward the windshield for defrosting/defogging. This could potentially reduce visibility in conditions where windshield defrosting is necessary and therefore create a safety concern. The problem has been confirmed through a vehicle diagnostic inspection. The vehicle/component is available for inspection upon request. I have also found other Hyundai Elantra owners reporting similar loss of center-vent airflow and HVAC mode-control problems. The issue occurred without a collision or other known event that would have caused the component to fail. The repair is also unusually labor-intensive because the failed ventilator lever is located behind the dashboard and requires extensive disassembly just to access the component. I was informed that the repair would require at least 14 hours of labor, resulting in an extremely high repair cost for what is essentially a small mechanical component. The amount of labor required to reach and replace the lever makes the repair disproportionately expensive. Additionally, I have encountered multiple other Hyundai Elantra owners reporting the same or very similar symptoms, including loss of airflow from the center/forward-facing vents while the side vents continue to function. Suggests occurring issues.
