If you have brought your vehicle to the dealer at least two times, and the dealer has not been able to repair the problem, duplicate the problem, or you have been told there is nothing wrong with your Hyundai, you may be entitled to a buyback or repurchase under the California Lemon Law. If you purchased or leased one of the following cars or SUVs:Īnd have experienced any of these problems, you may have a lemon under California’s Lemon law. The TCM and DCT defects causes, among other problems, unresponsive accelerator pedal, delayed or no acceleration, jerking, shuddering, shaking, failure to shift, stalling, and/or loss of power. Model years 20 Hyundai Elantra Eco, Sonata Eco, Tucson, and Veloster Turbo have defects in the transmission control module (TCM) and the 7 speed dual clutch automatic transmission (DCT) that impair your use, value, and safety. The Hyundai Veloster is currently priced from $24,490 to $35,290 (plus on-road costs).Defective 7 Speed Dual Clutch and Defective Transmission Control Module The biggest loser in the segment at the current time would appear to be Toyota's 86 coupe, which has dropped 37.5 per cent over the same period.


It's a comparable drop in view of the total sports car market (in which the Veloster competes), which is down 16.6 per cent overall (based on 2013-14 figures). Since its launch here in February 2012, the Veloster and Veloster SR (turbo) have sold 11,440 examples with annual numbers falling around 14 per cent since the first year of sale. Owing to slow sales, the Hyundai Veloster was recently withdrawn from sale in the UK leaving Australia as the only major right-hand-drive market to accept the Elantra-based model. "We can't confirm pricing or specification details just yet, but we can tell you that not all of the changes and features shown on the US model will necessarily feature on the Australian update." "The updated Veloster will be with us in Q2," said HMCA's public relations manager, Guido Schenken. HID headlights may too become standard across the range, while Hyundai's FlexSteer adjustable electric steering system is also tipped to be adopted. It is also likely the tyre size will grow to 225/40-series on the turbocharged SR (up from 215/40), the model retaining 18-inch alloy wheels. An engine sound symposer – similar to that featured in Renault's Clio – will also be added, piping a choice of six synthesised sounds through the Veloster's all-new 'Beats' audio system.

Visually, the refreshed Veloster will also score new seats, a new alloy wheel design, new instrument panel, new silver trim on the front grille (previously body-coloured) and three new colour choices. It's good news for Australian consumers, who favour self-shifting versions of the Veloster by a factor of five to one.

The six-speed manual transmission is likely to remain as the standard offering, though Hyundai's six-speed automatic seems to be replaced by a new in-house-developed seven-speed dual-clutch unit. The normally-aspirated 1.6-litre Veloster and Veloster + will remain unchanged at 103kW and 166Nm. The news follows spy photos published on last month, with images today leaked on-line detailing an uptick in power for US-spec Veloster SR models, its turbocharged 1.6-litre T-GDi engine now matching the output of Australian models at 150kW and 265Nm. The quirky Hyundai Veloster is set for a mid-life overhaul, with a new seven-speed dual-clutch transmission headlining the changes.
