NHTSA 5-Star Safety Rating
Seat belt complaints dominate what 2022 Venue owners report, making up the largest share of the complaint set for this model year, though the specific failure patterns described vary enough that no single symptom stands out as clearly recurring. Steering is the next most-reported named system, with owners describing a knocking sound and vibration in the steering wheel during low-speed maneuvers, in at least one case traced to a loose steering shaft bolt, and a separate report of unexpected pull to one side while turning. Electrical system complaints round out the top three, with owners noting an inoperable horn and a non-functioning theft alarm on the same vehicle. A water intrusion complaint describes rain water pooling on the passenger-side floor, with the issue persisting across multiple occurrences.

By System
The 2022 Hyundai Venue has two recalls, the more serious being front seatbelt pretensioners that can explode during a crash and send metal fragments into the cabin, striking occupants.
The second recall involves an incorrectly installed center console cover. Certain vehicles were built with an exposed shift lock release button where a blank cover should be. If that button is pressed, the transmission can be shifted out of park without a key in the ignition or the brake pedal depressed, and if the parking brake is not set, the vehicle can roll away.
