NHTSA complaint: 2013 HYUNDAI ELANTRA — SEAT BELTS
DURING MERGE ONTO A MAJOR DALLAS TOLLWAY, TRAFFIC BECAME STOPPED IN THE RIGHT LANE AND UPON APPLYING A HARD BRAKE OF MY CAR, THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKES FAILED TO ENGAGE, THE SEATBELT DID NOT LOCK, MY CAR FELT AS THOUGH IT WAS ACCELERATING EVEN THOUGH I WAS PRESSING THE BRAKE PAD HARD. I HIT THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME ONCE AND THEN AGAIN BEFORE MY CAR STOPPED, STILL RUNNING. MY CAR SUSTAINED $8500 IN DAMAGE TO THE FRONT END, BUT THE AIR BAG DID NOT EVEN DEPLOY. I HAVE OWNED IT FOR 15 MONTHS AND HAVE NOT HAD AN ISSUE OF THIS NATURE IN THE PAST, HOWEVER I AM NOW CONCERNED OF THE SAFETY OF THIS VEHICLE. *TR
