2007 Azera trip computer zeros out for no reason
Ever so often for no rhyme or reason my trip computer reverts to zero. It seems to happen after I start the car. The same thing happens with the MPG and AVE/MPH etc, but not as ofter as the trip odometer.
My dealer refuses to do anything because he can't make it happen in the shop. That's understandable because it only happens every few weeks. He claims he's never heard of it being a problem and I suspect he's lying because I know someone else that complains about it to him.
Does anyone here have the problem? I'd like to know.
Thanks
Floyd

While I don't have that problem, your comment above is so typical. My suggestion, you and the other individual need to start a paper trail and get a case number assigned.
Good luck.
Anyway, I noticed it had reset ( though I was monitoring FE so I didn't know exactly when ), but it seemed like it was close to the 1000 mile mark so I just assumed that the trip ODO did not go over 1000 miles. I haven't had the problem since, but never let it run up to 1000 miles, either.
Did you ask your dealer about it?

If your car was the only one with this type of problem, it never the less is a problem that should be delt with by the company.
This response is similar to others reported by other Azera owners, especially the "clunk" issues.
Interestingly it happened to me for the first time this week. I thought it was an accident on my part but after reading the posts, I think not.
I will keep on eye on it.

Maybe the tripodometer is supposed to resent every 1,000 miles, like in my '05 Sonata. (At 1500 miles it will read 500 miles) However, I doubt that it would be designed to reset the MPG & Ave MPH every 1,000 miles. (My car doesn't have trip computer.
So many people on the Sonata & Azera sites have never had a trip computer before and have no idea of what it actually does. You should read the owners manual. Maybe there's a problem or not.
"Total distance is reset to zero if the battery is disconnected."
"The meter's working range is from 0 to 999.9 miles."
I didn't know that! Haven't taken a long drive yet, either...
definately not because it cracked 999 miles, i reset it every fillup, and many times i cannot use it to verify gas mileage because it zeroes itself out
and i second the thought that i don't want some idiot ripping apart my dash, i'll just live with the problem on this one.
I say that because when I purchased my car after about a month one morning my car would not start!
no power!
Opened up the hood and my negative terminal was loose. Tightened it up and no problems since.
Just a thought.

"My wifes 2006 Azera has a continuing issue that I was hoping someone is familiar with. The dealership is pleasant, but clearly thinks we are just exagerating. From road speed when you begin to decelerate..just as it finally drops into low gear, the headlights will blink off ( or at least so dim that you can't really tell the difference) and then once the transmission has slipped completely into low (1) it is over. I have seen it occur when braking at higher speed but it may have been a combination of braking/transmission change to a lower gear. It is aggravating and the guy in front of you thinks your flashing your lights at him. This Azera has 9000 miles on it and has been a joy to own. We have 2 other Elantras that my daughters drive and one has 35,000 and the other 18,000 and zero problems with either one. We are very satisfied 3 Hyundai family...now if we can just get them to bring me a truck over here.
Any thoughts on the headlight issue would be appreciated."
I've informed him about your post and the fact that I haven't seen this problem mentioned anywhere else but your mention here...
I will keep an eye on it. I will have to look later though, because it is in he shop getting a new front right strut. (Yes, the "Dreaded Klunk") :sick:
By the way, how do you guys know the Azzy's b-day, where do I look?
You can find it on a label on the pillar on the driver's side of the car between the front & rear doors. Just open the driver's door and look down to your right.
Your cooperation would be mucho appreciated!
Ever since i found out there is problem with my car, it bothers me every time i am drivin' it. who knows it might cause other compter system as well. Hopefully not thou
Thank you.
If you're really bugged about the occasional reset on the tripmeter, I'm sure your dealer will be happy to tear your instrument panel apart for you in an attempt to fix it. IMO, this can cause more problems than it's worth, so I'll continue to put up with it.
The Azera has great reliabilty, power, ride, quietness, etc., but is not perfect - few cars are without a wart here or there. Where else, though, are you going to get the level of luxury this car offers for $25K?
Someone told me it might be something with the security system and a reset switch under the hood. Does anyone have any ideas?
