Should You Buy the 2024 Hyundai Venue?

Good reliability puts this model year above average among 2024 SUVs, and it lands in the middle of the seven Venue years scored. The 2023 rates better, with no recalls, though it has collected more complaints. The 2025 rates about the same and has far fewer complaints, but it has had less time to gather them. Federal crash testing gave the 2024 four of five stars.

Electrical trouble is the main pattern, making up 7 of the 18 owner complaints. The horn stops working, sometimes more than once, with failures reported around 13,000 to 15,000 miles. Other owners describe the instrument cluster going black, the speedometer dropping to 0 while driving, flashing warning lights, and a radio that cuts out. One owner reported the car losing power and stalling in traffic. Two steering complaints describe different problems, including one report of stiff steering and brake failure at low speed. No other owner described that. One federal recall covers engine and engine cooling.

Ask the seller for proof the recall repair was done, and for any horn or electrical repair invoices. On a test drive, check the horn, gauges, and radio. The 2023 is worth a look as well.

Compared to the 2025 Hyundai Venue, which scored 2 points higher. See also the 2023 Hyundai Venue for an earlier comparison.

Used Buying Checklist

Key things to inspect or verify before purchasing a 2024 Hyundai Venue.

  • Press the horn several times during the test drive and ask for any horn repair records.

  • Watch the gauge cluster while driving for blackouts, flickering warning lights, or a speedometer dropping to zero.

  • Have the battery tested and confirm the dash lights come on right away at startup.

  • Check that all brake lights work and that no false rear brake light warning appears.

  • Run every power window fully down and up several times and watch for sticking.

  • Open the hood and look over the wiring harness for chew marks or rodent nesting.

  • On a highway drive with cruise control set, note how often the driver attention alert goes off.

  • In a parking lot, turn the wheel lock to lock and feel for stiff or uneven steering effort.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

7 complaints

The horn stops working, sometimes more than once on the same car. There are 7 complaints, and the reported failures show up around 13,000 to 15,000 miles. Owners also describe the instrument cluster going black or acting erratically. Warning lights flash on and off, the speedometer drops to 0 while driving, and the radio cuts in and out. Other reports mention a drained battery with no dash lights and a false warning that a rear brake light is out. One complaint describes the car losing power and stalling repeatedly in traffic, which nearly caused a collision.

7 complaints total

UNKNOWN OR OTHER

5 complaints

Horn failure shows up again here, and one owner blames water corroding a connection. Another owner says rodents chewed through wiring because the harness coating attracts them, which led to a costly repair. Window complaints include power windows sticking in the up or down position and a front passenger window shattering at highway speed. The Driver Attention Warning also draws complaints. It sounds repeatedly with cruise control on at 70 mph or above, especially at night, and owners say it cannot be turned off and pulls their attention from the road.

5 complaints total

STEERING

2 complaints

Only 2 complaints are filed here, and they describe different problems. One is another dead horn, failing twice in less than a year, with the horn assembly replaced on the repair invoice. The other describes the steering wheel going stiff and the brakes failing at low speed shortly after purchase. The driver had to steer into a curb to stop, which flattened a tire and knocked off a fender. That second report is a serious loss-of-control event, but no other complaint describes the same thing.
