AFTER ENABLING THE STEERING ASSIST, LAST YEAR, WE NOTICED IT PULLING MORE AGGRESSIVELY THAN IT DID WHEN WE FIRST PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. WE DISABLED THE FEATURE FOR SEVERAL MONTHS THEN ENABLED IT AGAIN THIS WEEK. TODAY, WHILE MY WIFE AND FRIEND WERE DRIVING THE STEERING/LANE ASSIST PULLED THE WHEEL AGGRESSIVELY TOWARD THE OUTSIDE LANE, CAUSING THE CAR TO HYDROPLANE. LUCKILY MY WIFE WAS ABLE, AFTER THE CAR SPUN AROUND 360 DEGREES SEVERAL TIMES, TO CORRECT ENOUGH TO STAY OUT OF ONCOMING TRAFFIC AND ENDED SIDEWAYS OFF THE HIGHWAY, SHAKEN UP BUT NO MAJOR INJURIES. THE VEHICLE IS BEING TOWED TO THE NEAREST GENESIS DEALER.

Components: EXTERIOR LIGHTING
Incident Date: 03/07/2017
Crash: No
Fire: No
Vehicle Identification Number: KMHG54JHXHU******
Summary

SINCE TAKING DELIVERY OF THE VEHICLE, THE AUTO-LEVELING HEADLIGHTS DO NOT STAY IN ADJUSTMENT, LEADING TO THE LOW 'BEAM' OF LIGHT BEING EITHER WAY TOO LOW, AND THEREFORE NOT ILLUMINATING THE ROADWAY SAFELY, OR BEING TOO HIGH (MOST RECENTLY THE LOW BEAMS WERE HIGHER THAN THE HIGH BEAMS). THE DEALER HAS CONSULTED WITH HYUNDAI, AND THEY FREELY ADMIT TO ME THAT THEY CANNOT FIX THE PROBLEM. THE CAR HAS BEEN TO THE DEALER 5-6 TIMES, WHERE THEY MANUALLY ADJUST THE LIGHTS WITH A SCREWDRIVER, BUT THE LIGHTS ON THEIR OWN RE SELF-ADJUST TO EITHER TOO LOW, OR TOO HIGH AND IN NEITHER CASE THE ROADWAY BEING SAFELY ILLUMINATED. MOST OF THE TIME THEY ARE TOO LOW. I HAVE GOTTEN 4 FLATS BECAUSE OF POOR ILLUMINATION. I AM UNABLE TO DRIVER THE CAR AT NIGHT. PHOTOS ATTACHED SHOW THE BEAM IN THE NYC HOLLAND TUNNEL, SHOWING THE LOW BEAM LOW, AND NOT ILLUMINATING PAST ABOUT 75'. I HAVE MANY OTHER PHOTOS, PLUS DASH CAM VIDEOS SHOWING THE PROBLEM.
