2013 Hyundai Sonata 4 DR FWD

There was previously a smell of fuel in the driver's compartment approximately 2 days prior to the incident and subsequently, a service appointment was made with the service department at the local dealership. On the date of the incident, the vehicle was being driven when smoke appeared in the interior of the vehicle. Driver pulled out of traffic into an empty parking lot where the car then became increasingly engulfed in flames. Local Fire Department came and extinguished flames, but car appears to be a total loss.

I have reported issues to local Hyundai and they refuse to look and correct recalls do to mileage. I need recalls repaired immediately.

There is noise coming from the steering column when driving over bumps. The sounds gives the impression that parts in the column is loose. The noise is heard and low and high speeds.

Steering column coupler keep breaking

Engine oil evaporates Motor could lock up

The engine is misfired

Sudden "Hyundai Sonata Hybrid System Warning! Safely Stop and Do Not Drive" while driving on freeway. I had to tow my car because the engine did not start after the sign. My safety was at danger because it happened suddenly on the freeway and the car slowed down. I had no control over car speed.

I HAVE A 2013 HYUNDAI SONATA.THE CAR STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO MY MECHANIC, THEY DID A DIAGNOSTIC TEST ON THE CAR AND THEY FOUND NOTHING TO BE WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE, BUT THEY DID FIND SHAVINGS OF MEDALS PIECES IN THE ENGINE. THE MECHANIC TOLD ME TO TOW MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I BOUGHT IT FROM AND HAVE THEM LOOK AT IT BECAUSE THEY HAD MANY CARS; SONATAS WHERE THE ENGINE JUST COMPLETELY WENT OUT. THE CAR DID STALL IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY PUTTING ME AT-RISK AND I DID NOT FEEL SAFE. I HAD MANY RECALLS ON THIS CAR BEFORE, BY FAR THIS WAS THE MOST DANGEROUS BECAUSE I HAD A MINOR IN THE CAR. THIS HAS BEEN AN ON GOING PROBLEM WITH HYUNDAI SONATA ENGINES WHERE THEY COMPLETELY GO OUT. IT HAPPENED WITH MY LAST HYUNDAI SONATA THAT I BOUGHT FROM THE DEALERSHIP WHERE THE ENGINE WENT OUT. THIS IS MY SECOND CAR FROM INVER GROVE HYUNDAI. ITS STRESSFUL AND A FRUSTRATING SITUATION.

Any time the light switch is on the "on"position several electrical issues happen. Headlights come on randomly after car turned off and drain battery.Brake light bulbs overheat, burn out and melt casing frequently. Consol lights come on that are not selected and should not be illuminated. Cruise control wont work and engine can loose power momentarily. Was taken for service in 2019 at folsom lake Hyundai dealership but was told no other reports found and they couldnt replicate issue. Nothing was done. Have issues every winter when headlights are used more frequently. Issues getting worse as time goes on.

there was a clicking noise and vibration coming from the steering column at 65 mph. Have an appointment with Joe Holland Hyundai on November 16th to get checked out. There was no messages prior to issue. 105,000 miles on car

The contact owns a 2013 Hyundai Sonata. The contact stated while driving 25 MPH, the vehicle lost motive power. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic, and the contact requested an alternator replacement. The mechanic replaced the alternator however, the vehicle failed to start. The mechanic diagnosed that the oil was 2 quarts low and needed an engine replacement. The vehicle was towed to the dealer and the dealer referred the contact to the manufacturer. The vehicle was not repaired and remained at the dealer. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and a case was opened. The contact was unable to follow-up with the case manager. The contact related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 17V226000 (Engine and Engine Cooling) however, the VIN was not included in the recall. The failure mileage was approximately 133,000.

When driving on the freeway at 75 mph, check engine light came on and shortly after the car just stopped running. Could have been a terrible accident but able to get over to side of freeway without causing an accident. Car was towed to dealership in Flagstaff Arizona on 8/9/2021. Advised it was a Campaign T3G engine and turbo charger recall and that part was ordered on 8/10/2021. Required hotel stay, rental car nightmare to get home to Albuquerque New Mexico. Dealer advises the part has still not been received as of 10/29/2021 and they do not know when they will get it. They also have 8 other cars waiting for same repair. Owner of vehicle is without the car for 3 months now, not to mention the car is in another state and we can't follow up easily.

*** Normal driving, brakes went out while driving. *** Car was recently repaired by dealer related to hybrid power relay system failure - fuse and precharge relay failed and forced car to pull over while at highway speeds to side of road then left driver stranded on side of road. This was repaired supposedly. Now just a couple weeks later under normal street driving condition brakes totally went out. Stop light then let off brake and car started beeping and making noises - check engine light, brake light, LCD displayed BRAKE warning and flashed "HYBRID SYSTEM WARNING! Safely Stop and Do Not Drive". The car was unresponsive to acceleration pedal and only slowly moved then puttered a little bit but I managed to get it out of the intersection and into a parking lot under its own power. Brake pedal went all the way to the floor. I used Emergency Brake to stop and park then had it towed. Could have been disaster if I was on highway - which I was at stop light to turn onto when the failure occurred. I am scared of this car now. 2 times in a month it has forced driver to pull over and then become unresponsive. No brakes is the last straw. This is a dangerous car now.

The contact owns a 2013 Hyundai Sonata. The contact stated while driving the vehicle there was a clicking noise and vibration coming from the steering column. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who diagnosed that the steering coupler was faulty and had also caused damage to the front passenger’s and driver’s side tie rods. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The local dealer was notified of the failure. The manufacturer was not yet contacted. The VIN was not available. The failure mileage was 123,000.

The car stopped running and started smoking. Took it to Langdale Hyundai in Valdosta, GA and they said it was a rod bearing and there was a recall on it. They then told us after over a month and a half of them having the car that it was declined due to the engine not being updated since 2018??? I've never once heard of updating an engine. But I also thought the recall took place before that time frame so I don't see why that matters.

The car stopped while I was driving twice in the middle of an intersection with no warning lights or anything. My vehicle stopped in the middle of the road while driving and would not start back. Yes my mechanic seen it and said he has seen a lot of Sontas with this problem. No warring lights or anything ever came on.

The night before, a light came on as I got home and when I looked it up it said "not urgent, but take to a dealer to have it inspected." I parked it. The next morning, before I even got out of the driveway, a BIG warning light came on saying "PULL OVER AND PARK CAR. HAVE IT LOOKED IT BY A DEALER AS SOON AS POSSIBLE." I pulled back to the house and turned it off. It would never start again. I had it towed to the dealership, who have tried several parts and so far nothing has worked. They do not know how to fix it. It is at Grayson Hyundai in Knoxville, TN. There were no other warning signs, messages, or symptoms prior to it dying. The whole hybrid system or electric battery component system failed. Since it just died without warning, it would have been extremely dangerous if I had been on a public road instead of my driveway, with no where to go and no recourse.

The contact owns a 2013 Hyundai Sonata. The contact was informed that the taillights were inoperable. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer where it was diagnosed with needing the taillight assemblies replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was not informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 62,000.

Possible compromise to the integrity of the passenger air bag due to known 2012-2013 dashboard cracking issue. Dashboard cracked approximately 8-9 inches on top of the passenger air bag. concerned for integrity if cracking persists of the air bad

I was driving on the Interstate and my engine sized up. Luckily I was able to get to the off ramp with out an accident. I had my car towed to the dealership. It was confirmed that the engine sized up and related to the recall. Hyundai has had my car for close to 3 months and refuses to honor the recall and replace the engine. I took it in for the recall after I found out on the news. They changed my oil and said the engine was good. After the engine froze up, I was told that their was a second recall that I was again not notified by. Hyundai warrantee department will not replace my engine because I did not know about the second recall, and it did not get done. After my car was towed to the dealership I got a pamphlet in the mail about an engine chip program update. My car is now a paper weight, Hyundai failed to honor their recall, left my wife and I with only 1 car that has an engine recall on it, I need to spend money on a second tow to a repair shop, and we need to find a few thousand dollars to get a repair shop to replace the engine.

My husband keeps replacing the left passenger side brake light and when he called the dealer he was told that they know of the issue but there isn’t a recall on it. Today 10/20/21 he went to replace the bulb again because it was out he noticed that as he was pulling the bulb the light came on. When he moved the harness around the light bulb would turn on and turn off. He went to autozone and one of the associates told him the same thing the deal told me, that they knew of the issue but there wasn’t a recall on it. He said that’s what they told him when he encounter the same issue I was having with my vehicle. His girl friend has the same vehicle as I do. It is available for inspection, unknown, yes it has been confirmed by the dealer, it has been inspected by my husband job AAA, and no warning lights appeared.

Rear passenger door doesn’t open from the inside or outside. The actuator is unlocking but the cable that attaches to the handle is stretched and not releasing from the striker. The component at fault is the “latch assembly”. This is very dangerous and people can get stuck in the rear.

When I was passing another car I lost all power and every warning light came on. I was able to pull over. I had the car towed to dealer. It was total engine failure. Engine replaced with a rebuilt which Hyundai paid for. The original engine had 86,000 miles. There was no previous warning and I had taken the car in for a recall to have engine checked for excessive wear the year before. Certainly, my safety was at risk.

At this time steering column has a "click" or "clunk" sound when turning the wheel in either direction. Steering on this car has always been odd. You have to continuously adjust wheel as you drive to stay in your lane. I am going to have it checked by my mechanic. If I lose steering that's a pretty big safety concern.

I have a 2013 Hyundai Sonata, with a build date of November 15, 2012. There is a NHTSA campaign, number 20V121000, that corresponds with Hyundai recall 189. The recall describes a fuel leak on the top of the engine, as well as "increasing the risk of engine compartment fire". My vehicle is currently experiencing the exact issue stated in the recall. According to the part 573 safety recall report 20V-121, the affected vehicles were produced at the Hyundai Motor Manufacturing Alabama with the production dates of November 26, 2012 - January 16, 2014, meaning I missed the "cut off" by 11 days. With that being said, local Hyundai dealerships and Hyundai cooperate with not perform the recall nor will the allow me to purchase the affected part so I can make the repair myself. In the mean time I am stuck with a vehicle that is leaking fuel onto the top of my engine, and fumes filling the cabin of my vehicle.

Normal weather, normal day. Hybrid car. Starts fine and drives as usual. Yesterday at 55mph got immediate alert to pull over. Barely able to pull over safely then car turns off and will not turn back on. Clicking under hood. No indication of battery or hybrid issue. Scan codes completely different than dealership advice. No exact indication of issue. Could have caused accident at 55pmh and electrical system go out like that. Battery died while on side of road. Towed to dealership and they said its a bad 12v battery ( but it was fine ) and a fuse and a "pre-charge hybrid relay" whatever that is. Thousand dollar repair that caused car to be forced off road while driving highway speed. Bottom line, everything prior was fine, no indication of any battery issue, no hard starts nothing. While driving system failed and then unable to restart. Many similar complaints online.

Most of my exterior bulbs burn out out constantly. Headlights at least once a year, most of the time twice a year. Brake lights/ rear license plate bulbs burn out multiple times a year. Fog lights and high beams affected too. Apart from the annoyance of constantly being pulled over and given verbal warnings, or people yelling at me, trying to help me out by letting me know that yet another bulb is out, it's a safety concern. If I'm breaking and the person behind me isn't paying attention, they could slam into me. Where I live durning certain times of the year the fog gets so thick that without fog lights, it's scary to drive. The spot where that 60 car pile up that happen in Virgina a few years ago, is part of my commute. There was a time when a fog light and a head light went out with in minutes of each other, while I was driving in snow. Now, if the bulbs I have used were cheap ones, then I would be more lenient on then burning out faster. But I'm using top tier Sylvania and Phillips bulbs. These bulbs are expensive and having to change them is costly. I've gone to dealerships and the response is always the same. "Bulbs just burn out, we'll sell you some for $30 each" That's what a Hyundai dealership near me told me when they failed my Sonata's State Inspection. I needed two break lights. I know it isn't just my car either. I've been watching Sonata's for probably about a year now, and would you know it, their brake lights are usually out (right side most often) Or their head light is out. A quick Google search is proof enough that I'm not alone.

Hyundai turbocharger failed in my vehicle. This is common in Hyundai vehicles and is unsafe. The car stalls out while driving and sometimes do not start. This is eventually going to cause the engine to be damaged. This is dangerous because the car just turns off. Hyundai is not willing to own up to their mistakes on manufacturing these cars and it is frustrating.

Recommended lights for brakes keep burning, causing the brake light sockets to melt. I have replaced them twice and replaced the complete tail lights and wiring. Purchasing stock tail lights, bulbs as well as after market. The bulbs continue to blow or get so hot that they are melting the plastic. My car was smoking today from the rear and upon poping my trunk it was filled with smoke from the tail lights burning. This needs to be recalled and fixed.

Issue with loud popping noise coming from the antenna area of the vehicle, and has occurred when vehicle is not on and the keyless entry has not been used. I have tried for almost 3 years to get this resolved. The dealerships hear the noise but could not fix it. Case open with Hyundai USA.

The contact owns a 2013 Hyundai Sonata. The contact stated that while her son was in traffic, the vehicle stalled with the check engine warning light illuminated. The contact’s son was able to restart the vehicle and drove the vehicle home. When the contact drove the vehicle, she stated that an abnormal grinding sound was coming from the vehicle while driving up an incline. The contact stated that the check engine warning light illuminated on the vehicle during the failure. Due to the failure, the contact had the vehicle towed to the dealer to have the vehicle serviced for NHTSA Campaign Number: 20V121000 (Fuel System, Gasoline). The dealer then called the contact and informed her that a diagnostic test needed to be performed on the vehicle prior to the recall repair. The contact refused to pay for a diagnostic test and instructed the dealer to only repair the recall on the vehicle. Since that call, the contact had called the dealer on multiple occasions but had yet to receive a response. The manufacturer had yet to be notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired and remained in the possession of the dealer. The failure mileage was approximately 96,000. The VIN was not available.

They failed to fix my recall, they handed my receipt stating it was done. It was a recent recall. I was very upset because they failed to fix my issue and lied to me about it!!! So I have text and emails about their false fixed recalls. Very disappointed in my Patrick Schaumburg Hyundai dealership! Very unsafe and fake fixing mandatory recalls.

Very concerned about extensive "cracking" on dashboard on and around passenger side airbag designation. Could this affect deployment of the airbag?

I had been hearing a clicking noise when turning the steering wheel. The steering wheel also vibrates at speeds above 60. I took the car in for diagnosis and was told the steering column and assembly needs to be replaced. I had recently hit a pothole and noticed the noise and vibration was a lot worse. The dealership felt that could have been a cause of the increased noise and vibration. I was advised to file a claim with my insurance company. The insurance company said it was a known steering wheel issue with Hyundai.

The dashboard is showing major cracking and I am concerned that the air bags may self deploy. I have seen other drivers online with the same issue.

After purchasing my vehicle my engine seized and needed to be replaced in 01/2021. Recently my car started to smell like gasoline, I am told it is an issue with the fuel pump on the engine. There is gasoline going all over the engine making it a big fire hazard.

The contact owns a 2013 Hyundai Sonata. The contact stated that while driving approximately 65 MPH, a clunking noise was present coming from the engine before the vehicle stalled. The vehicle was towed to the local dealer who diagnosed that the engine had failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The contact was informed that the vehicle was included in NHTSA Campaign Number: 17V226000 (Engine and Engine Cooling) however, the part to do the recall repair was unavailable. The local dealer was contacted, and it was confirmed that the part was not yet available. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue. Parts distribution disconnect. The failure mileage was 57,000.

Steering wheel sticks at all speeds. Also, car often veers left or right then when correcting the steering will stick and I will have to jerk the wheel in the correction direction. This happens everyday. At high speeds it can almost feel as if I do not have full control of the car. Also when decelerating from high speeds the steering will shake. I take the highway often and it is at those time that I feel my safety and the safety of other drivers is at risk. I have went to my dealership (Universal Hyundai) with this complaint at least 3-4 times and they have told me there is no apparent issue. There has been no warning lamps, this issue first started happening in 2018.

Vehicle shut off while driving on the freeway while gas gauge showed 1/4 tank full. There was no warning light indicator or anything. Vehicle would not turn back on until additional gas was added to the gas tank. The vehicle shutting off unexpectedly is dangerous to not only myself and my passengers but other drivers around me as well. Gas gauge also does not reflect accurately when gas is being added to the tank. Called the dealer and explained that this is an issue in other 2013 Hyundai Sonata and they said it’s not vin number specific and refused to service it.

Engine replaced by Hyundai for recall 4/2021. Gas is leaking from high presser pipe directly on top of the engine. Hyundai customer service says I did not meet requirements for Recall 180. Dealer who replaced engine says covered by warranty and could be faulty part and not installation issue. Teen drivers could have been killed driving the car when gas, leaking directly onto the engine, started smoking. They stopped vehicle before gas could spark. We have video of gas leak when car not running. Medlin Hyundai in Rocky Mount said gas was "spewing from the high pressure pipe onto the engine".

The contact owns a 2013 Hyundai Sonata. The contact stated that while driving at 30 - 35 mph, the vehicle stalled while going up a hill. The contact was able to use the emergency brakes to pull over into a ditch, in order to stop the vehicle. No warning lights were illuminated. There was dark gray smoke coming from the engine and a burnt odor was detected when the contact opened the hood. The vehicle was towed to the contact's residence. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and opened a case and informed the contact that they would send her case over to NHTSA. The contact was waiting on instructions from the manufacturer on what to do with the vehicle. The failure mileage was approximately 117,000.

Our engine has seized up according to our mechanic. They replaced the gasket on the oil pan and found metal shavings. Then just a week later the engine seized up. We had the dealer look at at back in 2017 and they only did a software update. Does this qualify for the engine recall?

On Sat 8/28/21, while driving, Without any warning or engine lights, the engine stopped running while I was driving on the road at 45 mph. I was able to pull over safely and the car would not restart. I had it towed to a nearby auto shop, the diagnostic shows fuel pump not turning on. I've had this car for 14 months with no issues until now. I could've been injured or crashed had I been on an interstate. It will need to be towed again to a dealership for fuel pump replacement. I've lost wages due to this incident and no idea how to pay for this costly repair.

I was driving and my vehicle started cutting out. When I hit the accelerator, the vehicle hesitated and did not want to go, I had the gas pedal push down to the floor, it eventually kicked in. I traveled a short distance and then it did the same thing, almost coming to a stop. The engine started making a rattling-banging noise and then the Malfunction indicator light came on.I was at a busy intersection and proceeded to try to make a left turn to get out of traffic and to the Dobbs repair shop across the street.As I attempted to Cross the two lanes of oncoming traffic my vehicle stalled and shut completely down. The oncoming traffic had to stop in order to avoid striking my vehicle. My vehicle was stalled blocking both oncoming lanes of traffic. I put the vehicle into “Park” and restarted it by hitting the automatic start button. When I accelerated the vehicle barley rolled, maybe 5 mph? It rolled enough to remove me from danger from being stuck. I then made another immediate left turn into the Dobbs parking lot. The vehicle then began to pick up speed, I drove around to the front of Dobbs, parked the vehicle and dropped it off to get the problem diagnosed. I was called the next morning and told that it was possible engine damage and that it would have to be towed to the dealer. I called Auffenberg in Ofallon Illinois on Friday 08/27/21 at 0923hrs.and was told that I needed to speak to the service manager Bill Gillespie for approval. I left him a voice message. He never returned my call so I left a second message at 5:51 pm. On Monday 08/30/21 at 12:45 pm after still never receiving a return call, I called and left Mr. Gillespie a third voice message. In the messages I left I informed him of the problem and also that I was stranded without having another vehicle. I filed a case with Hyundai online, case #xxxx5097. I later spoke to a person who said they were told that there were 30 other cars at this dealer with blown engines and that there is a 3 month repair wait!

The steering column is clanging over bumps and when steering which is a failure in the plastic steering shaft coupler.This coupler looks like an impeller.It is situated between the steering column shaft and the electric steering motor.The coupler is disintegrating and will lead to steering failure and high probability to death or injury of the cars occupants.This coupling failure is commom and found in perhaps thousands of Hyundai vehicles.A recall needs to be mandated immediately.If it is ignored then Hyundai needs to prepare for the lawsuits that will ensue

Hybrid system warning light comes on at random times and sometimes the car won't start.

my brakes stop working . The dealership advised that the HECU needed to be replaced. There are several incidents showing online with the same dangerous problem. at home going into my apartment garage the car just started rolling back onto on coming traffic. the brakes just stopped working, I swerved to avoid being hit. The car is at the dealership. There was not any working for this ever expensive problem,

I was replacing my windshield washer fluid and the hydraulic shock on the hood failed without warning and the hood slammed down on my left arm

When accelerating to 65 mph, the check engine light came on, and the vehicle stopped accelerating. Took the vehicle in to a mechanic, who stated there was poor acceleration at high RPM's and the car had jerking symptoms during hard throttle. For the engine diagnosis there was a fault code for the knock sensor found. Very low oil levels were in crankcase, no additional fault codes found, abnormal noises. Signs of internal engine problem low oil pressure suspected, no apparent lubricant to upper part of the engine. Recommended replacing the engine. The mechanic estimated the car was also losing oil faster than it should've. Prior to this incident occuring, the car has been regularly maintenanced at the dealership. Car was taken in to an independent mechanic to be looked at because dealership service repair did not have an opening for 2 weeks to look at the car. The lower acceleration could cause an accident on the freeway if driving at high speeds and the acceleration malfunctions without warning. No other persons have looked at the car yet. There was no lights, symptoms, or messages indicating a problem prior to this incident happening. This was the first time this incident has happened with the vehicle.

The contact owns a 2013 Hyundai Sonata. The contact stated while driving the check engine warning light was illuminated.

The failure mileage was approximately 140,000.

The lights bulbs have burned out multiple times. The hole where the bulb fits is misshapen and is very hard to install new light bulbs (practically impossible). Reported to dealership. They said it is a known issue and that Hyundai will not fix it now. Told me to buy new lights. I did that and the bulbs are still burning out. The socket the bulb goes into is melted, the spot the light bulb goes into the light is melted. This is not safe. I have put over 10 light bulbs in the trail lights in a little over 3 years.

White paint peeling off from the car.

The brake pedal bushing has completely deteriorated and caused my car to be able to shift gears without touching the brake. It also caused me to be unable to use cruise control (which I found out driving down the interstate thank god I wasn’t in an accident) and caused me to be unable to park my car. Caused my battery to die and left me stranded at work. No pieces to remedy to issue are available. And Hyundai has said there was a recall with earlier models (up to year 2011) my car is 2013 and is obviously effected. I have now had a recall on y seat belts, air bags, engine, seat belt anchors, fuel line transmission fluid sensor and now my brakes. I’m not sure what is actually ok with this model at this point!!!

Trunk latch mechanism is not responding to either manual or sensor key

I purchased a used 2013 Hyundai Sonata and in less than a month it was stolen! The police told me that Hyundai has a huge problem with vehicle theft because the manufacturer has built in design flaws that make it the easiest car in the world to steal. The thieves did not even have to break my window even though they were completely up and the car was locked! From what I see on the internet, Hyundai has never addressed the problem and should have voluntarily recalled the vehicles and fixed them! Why has this been allowed to happen when both the federal/state governments and NTSB are aware of such a gigantic problem that is causing extreme financial burden to Hyundai owners?

Tail lights are CONSTANTLY going out. This is the second time over a 20 day period that I replaced them. It’s not normal. I’m afraid to drive at night due to this matter, as I do not want another vehicle colliding with my rear end. The bulbs are brand new but yet it’s still goes out. This matter should be looked into immediately as it is a safety hazard for nighttime drivers.

The Engine Seized and went into limp mode. This happens on June 2 2021. It effected the turbocharger and the Engine tube fuel line. It is covered under the recall. It is currently at Spradly Hyundai in Pueblo Colorado. I have been waiting for 3 months to have it fixed and they had no loaner so I have had to pay for a rental before I got the rental I lost my job because I didn't have a way to get to work. I have spent almost 4,000 in rental which come to find out they only will pay upto 40.00 a day on a rental which there is no rental company that you can get a rental less then 92.00 a day. I have loss so much income and money because of this recall. I had just bought the car 5 weeks before this happened and I have not even been able to make my first car payment. So it will probably be repossed once I get it back. Thanks Hyundai I will never buy anouther car from this manufacturing company. I

After making a knocking noise for a few miles, the engine seized and the car completely stalled. I had to coast through traffic to stop on the side of the road. Would not start again. I towed the car to service department of Hyundai dealer in Lindon, Utah, who diagnosed a seized engine and is now assessing the seized engine for warranty coverage under the premature bearing wear recall.

Blinking saying turn off engine almost died on highway this is my business car in my business name I haven't had this car for a year sign says turn vehicle off it cut off in front of my house hybrid system warning

While driving on the Mass pike my engine quit and decelerated without warning resulting in my wife and I barely making it off the road without causing an accident. There is a known flaw with this model 2013 Hyundai Sonata which caused a recall on Jan. 22,2021 that I had not received a notice on. That lack of notice could have easily caused our death that day. The dealer that has the car said the motor needs to be replaced. All owners of Hyundai Theta engines driven vehicles should be made aware before someone dies.

Brake light flashing while driving in result my brakes touch down to the floor resulting me from braking properly

Check engine light began flashing and my 2013 Hyundai Sonata went into "limp" mode whiIe my wife was driving on the interstate. In "limp" mode it made it difficult and dangerous for her to exit the highway nearly being involved in a crash. She then "Limped" her way home. I checked the code with a diagnostic tool and a P1326 Knock Sensor Detection System code was returned. We took the vehicle to our local Hyundai dealer who reports the engine needs replaced which is part of Hyundai's recall/ campaign 17V226000. After the dealer trying on our behalf for several weeks to have the manufacturer replace the engine, the manufacturer now refuses to replace it. This is the second Hyundai I've had the engine fail on. The first one in a 2014 Sante Fe, the motor completely locked up. So what am I to do drive this one till the motor locks up on it? I dont think so!!! HELP

There are multiple issue with this car since last a year or more. ( picture attached) * At times computer flashes below message .. " Hyundai System Warning Safety Stop Do not Drive" * Steering Lock up * While driving a screeching sound and then it goes away. we received the recall notice and my daughter Jeranica took it to the Hyundai dealer for repair. They charged us $900 mentioning the issue is with belt & assembly and engine is ok. we informed then of all the above issue. Even after repairing the above we still have the same issue with the car. It look like Hyundai dealer are using this opportunity to rip-off the customer instead of actually fixing the issue. we still have above issue with, car computer asking us to stop on highway and steering lockup, dealer does not seem to be interested in fixing the issue. At one time he mentioned we have 114K mileage on the car and the life of engine is finish.

You go to them they just want to charge us $400 for diagnostic test. last week, Hyundai dealer told my car problem is with engine belt and tensioner assembly and I charged $900. but it did not fix the issue. I am not sure if above part was really needed to replaced, now the message on charging system and engine safety ( picture attached ) is too frequent.

The 1st thing that happened was the inside dashboard lights would flicker from nighttime mode to daytime mode. Took it to dealership and they could not get it to replicate. Now when it happens the headlights turn off. It happens a lot more often and seems to be something to do with the column.

Tail lights and brake lights constantly burn out. I've had to replace them multiple times a year. They bulbs get too hot that they melt into wiring harness which can be a fire hazard. I've had to replace the entire tail light because of this issues. I've heard and noticed this problem with a lot of Hyundai's. On the road I notice almost every other Hyundai similar to mine has at least one tail light or brake light out. My car was bought from Hyundai and had the original manufactures bulbs already installed, so this is not an aftermarket issue. I've read on multiple auto complaint blogs about this exact issue. I've been pulled over for the brake light being out which I wasn't even aware of until the officer told me. These bulbs have to be replaced at least 3 times a year. It's a safety hazard as well as a fire hazard. Every auto shop ive been to knows of this issues with Hyundai. I'm afraid to put anything flammable in my truck due to fear of it catching on fire. I spoke to Hyundai and they said that they are unaware of any issues or problems with my model and yet I continue to see mine and other vehicles with missing lights. Hopefully you guys can do something.

My car has stalled five different times over the past week. No warning lights come on. I took my car to the garage and they had the same stalling issue. They cannot locate the problem. I see on other websites that this is a problem for other Sonata owners.

I was driving and the car had black smoke coming from the exhaust and it cut off, wouldn’t crank back up

I love my 2013 Hyundai Sonata SE, but with that being said I hate driving it. When on the road the 2013 has the same exact issue that the 2011's had, it will constantly wander in and out of the lane making it nearly impossible to keep a straight line. Its very fatiguing having to keep moving the steering wheel back and forth just to keep it straight. And for two its a serious safety issue!! The slightest slip could send your car off the road or into another car! When bringing the car into my local dealership they blew me off and said its " a normal thing because of the electric power steering and how the car rides the grooves of the road." And they refuse to help me out further to fix the issue. PLEASE GUYS. I know I am not the only one to report this issue please ask Hyundai to create a recall on it.

Brake lights on the vehicle remain on and illuminated at all times. The brake lights are on while driving and pedal is not pressed as well as after vehicle is turned off and no one is in the vehicle. I checked the parking brake and it is not on either. I am concerned this will cause issues or accidents for people traveling behind me. Also do not know if this effects the battery in my vehicle. I checked and there was a recall for this very issue on a previous year Sonata and am wondering if it is now an issue for my year model as well.

Been told for 4 weeks now that they have to wait for parts them being suntrup Hyundai south in st louis MO

Dashboard experiencing vertical cracks in five areas and around airbag area. Cruise control would not turn off when break was depressed had to pull over applying brakes and pound on the steering wheel come to a stop. Checked out by manufacture claims it was no problem I have not used control since then.

I purchased (4 tires) 205/65R16 Sumitomo HTR A/S P02 for my vehicle in January 2019. In the past few months I’ve noticed a constant rumbling noise from the rear while driving. I have had my vehicle serviced for an inspection and oil change. Each time I received no recommendations during the multipoint inspections related to my tires. The last time I took it in I mentioned that I planned to purchase new tires and the mechanic looked at me strangely. He measured that my tire thread were at a 6 and he could not see any visible defects. Once the tires were rotated the noise moved from the back to the front. There is clearly a defect with the tire and it is out of warranty to be replaced.

We were driving north bound on 75 around mile marker 155 near Macon GA. The car stalled and would not turn over. I was able to move over to the shoulder lane. Upon opening the hood and inspecting the engine, I realized the engine was on fire. I started to extinguish the fire while we called the fire department who helped to finish extinguishing the fire. It is my understanding now that this model is known for having engine fire

THE HYUNDAI WEBSITE STATES THAT THIS SPECIFIC CAR HAS.ENGINE ISSUES AND THAT IT MAY STALL DUE TO.ENGINE DIFFICULTIES BUT WHEN I PUT IN MY VIN NO ISSUE.POPS UP.

I HAVE CONTINUOUSLY TRIED TO GET SOME ANSWERS REGARDING MY ENGINE RECALL. I FIRST RECEIVED THE LETTER IN 2017. AS I CONTINUED TO TO HAVE ISSUES WITH MY ENGINE BURNING TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF OIL, I WAS GIVEN A CASEWORKER FROM HYUNDAI CORPORATE THAT WILL NO LONGER RETURN MY CALLS. I HAVE WENT THROUGH ALL THREE OIL CONSUMPTION TESTS AND THEY HAVE SEEN THAT EVERY 1,000 MILES MY ENGINE NO LONGER HAS ANY OIL. THE ENGINE LIGHT DOES NOT COME ON FOR SOME REASON. WHEN I PICKED UP MY VEHICLE I WAS TOLD OKAY NOW JUST WAIT UNTIL IT MAKES A NOISE AND THE LIGHT COMES ON. I TOLD THE CUSTOMER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE THAT MY ENGINE IS ALREADY TICKING AND THE ENGINE LIGHT NEVER COMES ON. I WAS TOLD THERE'S NOTHING THEY COULD DO. I WAS TOLD BY A DIFFERENT REPRESENTATIVE THAT AFTER THE THIRD OIL CONSUMPTION TEST, IF MY ENGINE WAS UNDER THE RECALL GUIDELINES THEN IT WOULD BE REPLACED. I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW THIS IS OK TO MISTREAT YOU CUSTOMERS THE WAY THAT HYUNDAI DOES. I'M STILL MAKING PAYMENTS ON THIS 2013 HYUNDAI SONATA THAT'S NOT EVEN WORTH IT!!

I WAS DRIVING AND MY 10 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER WAS WITH ME IN THE CAR. WHEN CAR WAS CHANGING GEAR IT STARTED SHAKING VIOLENTLY, ALTHOUGH MY DAUGHTER WAS RESTRAINED SHE HIT HER HEAD AND HANDS ON THE INSIDE OF THE REAR DOOR. AFTERWARDS EVERY TIME CAR CHANGED THE GEAR IT WAS JERKING, SHAKING, BEHAVING IN UNEXPECTED MANNER THAT FURTHER DRIVING WAS VERY DANGEROUS. I WAS ABLE TO REACH MY HOME BUT I AM VERY SCARED TO DRIVE THAT CAR AGAIN. I READ THE CODE THAT CAME UP ON DASHBOARD P0711, TURNS OUT TRANSMISSION OIL TEMPERATURE SENSOR AND HARNESS MALFUNCTIONED AND THAT LED TO VIOLENT AND ROUGH SHIFTING. CALLED DEALER, THEY WANT $700 FOR A REPAIR AND MY CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY. CHECKED INTERNET AND IT'S FULL OF STORIES HOW THIS IS A HUGE PROBLEM WITH HYUNDAI CARS. IT TURNS HYUNDAI MODIFIED THE PART SINCE THEN AND NEVER RECALLED IT, THEY HAVE TSB 14-AT-010. HOW COME MANUFACTURER PUT FAULTY PART THAT COMPROMISES SAFETY OF THE VEHICLE AND THEY WANT HUGE CHUNK OF MONEY TO FIX IT? WHY DIDN'T THEY RECALL IT? DEFINITELY GOING TO COURT WITH THIS.

THE STEERING COLUMN MAKES A VERY LOUD CLUNKING NOISE WHENEVER YOU GO OVER A BUMP IN THE ROAD, LIKE SOMETHING IS LOOSE. THE WHEEL IS SOMETIMES HARD TO TURN. SMELL OF RUBBER AND BULBS HAVE TO BE CONTINOUSLY REPLACED. IT SEEMS THE HOUSING HAS MELTED

MY AIRBAG LIGHT CAME FOR NO REASON, THEY CHECKED THE ERROR CODES FOR AIRBAG THEY GOT CODES B1388 AND B1481 AIRBAG RESISTANCE TOO HIGH AND SEAT TRACK POSITION SENSOR WHICH THEY STATED IS AN ISSUE WITH THE CLOCKSPRING. WHEN I RESEARCH THIS ISSUE I FOUND THIS RECALL TSB ITS THE EXACT SAME ISSUE FOR 2011-2013 HYUNDAI SONATA BUT FOR SOME REASON MY CAR OR VIN NUMBER SAYS I AM NOT INCLUDED OR COVERED, I BELIEVE THIS SHOULD BE COVERED UNDER THIS AS THE DEALER AS THERE IS A UNLIMITED MILEAGE WARRANTY EXTENSION AND THE DEALER IS QUOTING ME $400+ TO REPLACE IT AND THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE.

POWER STEERING COUPLE PART# 563152K000FFF WILL BREAK AND STEERING WHEEL WILL BECOME LOOSER WITH A FEW MORE DEGREES OF PLAY BEFORE ABLE TO CORRECT STEERING. WHEN GOING OVER BUMPS VEHICLE WILL MAKE AUDIBLE CLUNKS, WHEN CHANGING DIRECTION OF STEERING WILL MAKE AUDIBLE NOISES AND HAVE ADDITIONAL DEGREES OF PLAY

DRIVER SIDE BREAK LIGHT BULB NO LONGER WORK PROPERLY. EVEN THOUGH ITS BEEN CHANGED IT WORKS SPORADICALLY BECAUSE THE BULB IS LOOSE IN THE SOCKET OF THE WIRE HARNESS OR THE SOCKET WILL MELT. THIS CAUSES MORE THAN ONE SAFETY ISSUE. CAR HAS NO BRAKE LIGHT ON ONE SIDE AND COULD AT ANYTIME CATCH ON FIRE.

I WAS DRIVING MY CAR, ALL MY LIGHTS POPPED UP ON MY DASH BOARD THIS NEVER HAPPENS, ONCE IT HAPPENED I PULLED OVER TURNED IT OFF, TRIED TO TURN IT BACK ON IT WOULDN'T START, CHECKED THE OIL EVERYTHING WAS FINE TRIED TO GIVE IT A JUMP IT STILL WOULDN'T START. SO I HAD TO TOW TO A LOCAL MECHANIC AND HE LOOKED AT IT THE NEXT DAY HE TOLD ME HE THINK MY ENGINE WENT, WHEN I BOUGHT THIS CAR IT HAD NO LIGHTS ON THE DASH BOARD AND IT DROVE PERFECT I'M SO CONFUSED AND SUPER MAD RIGHT NOW. THEN I GOT IT TOWED TO CONECELLI HYUNDAI FOR FURTHER INFORMATION.

MY AIR BAG LIGHT IS ON.

CAR STALLED WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH IN CITY. ALL DASHLIGHTS ILLUMINATED. ONCE PULLED OVER, I ATTEMPTED TO START THE ENGINE WHICH CAUSED LARGE AMOUNTS OF BLACK SMOKE TO COME OUT FROM UNDER THE HOOD. SMOKE SMELLED LIKE AN ELECRICAL FIRE. THIS ISSUE OCCURED 2 HOURS AGO.

DRIVER SIDE BREAK LIGHT BULB NO LONGER WORK PROPERLY. EVEN THOUGH ITS BEEN CHANGED IT WORKS SPORADICALLY BECAUSE THE BULB IS LOOSE IN THE SOCKET OF THE WIRE HARNESS OR THE SOCKET WILL MELT. THIS CAUSES MORE THAN ONE SAFETY ISSUE. CAR HAS NO BRAKE LIGHT ON ONE SIDE AND COULD AT ANYTIME CATCH ON FIRE. DEALERSHIP HAS SAID THIS IS A PROBLEM AMONG THESE VEHICLES BUT HYUNDAI HASN'T ADDRESSED THIS ISSUE. THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED VERY SOON. TRIED OF REPLACE HARNESSES AND BULBS.

ON NOVEMBER 15, 2020 MY 2013 HYUNDAI SONTA JUST QUIT ON ME WHILE ON THE INTERSTATE IN GEORGIA.

I FEEL I HAVE DONE MY PART BY KEEPING THE UP KEEP OF MY CAR UP SO SOMETHING LIKE THIS WOULDN'T HAPPEN, BUT SOMETHING THAT WAS OUT OF MY HANDS HAPPEN I HAVE TO BUY A WHOLE NEW ENGINE ALL BC OF WHAT MY TITLE SAYS. I CAN UNDERSTAND IF I DIDN'T DO THE UP KEEP OF MY CAR BUT AT THE END OF THE DAY IT SHOULDN'T FALL ON ME ALL BC OF WHAT MY TITLE SAYS. I HAVE OWED THAT CAR SINCE APIRL 2016 AND HAVEN'T HAD ANY PROBLEMS TIL NOW ON THIS CAR.

I AM CONSTANTLY CHANGING OUT MY BRAKE LIGHTS/ TAIL LIGHTS. AS SOON AS I REPLACE THEM., THEY GO OUT. MY BRAKE LIGHTS MAY WORK BUT MY TAIL LIGHTS WILL NOT. I'M AFRAID TO DRIVE AT NIGHT FOR FEAR OF NOT KNOWING IF I HAVE BRAKE LIGHTS OR NOT.

THE BREAK LIGHTS KEEP BURNING OUT. THEY HAVE MELTED THE PLASTIC THAT HOLDS THE LIGHT BULB. I REPLACE THE LIGHT BULBS ONCE A MONTH. IT SEEMS LIKE IT HAS A BAD POWER SURGE OR FAULTY WIRES. I HAVE SWITCHED TO LED LIGHT BULBS AND THEY STILL DON'T WORK. I HAVE SEEN THOUSANDS OF OTHER HYUNDAI SONATA DRIVERS SAY THE SAME EXACT COMPLAINT. I AM HIGHLY SURPRISED THAT THIS HAS NOT ALREADY BEEN A RECALL DUE TO AN EXTREME SAFETY ISSUE OF THE ELECTRICAL AND WIRING SYSTEM. HYUNDAI SONATA DRIVERS ARE GETTING PULLED OVER A LOT DUE TO THIS DEFECT AND ARE REPLACING BULBS AT AN EXTREMELY HIGH RATE THAN THEY SHOULD BE. THIS NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED AND RECALLED FOR CUSTOMERS SAFETY. THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE.

IT HAS BEEN OVER THREE MONTHS SINCE THE MANUFACTURER ANNOUNCED THE RECALL, BUT THERE STILL IS NO REMEDY. I AM AFRAID OF DRIVING THIS VEHICLE IN CASE THE ENGINE CATCHES FIRE. WHAT IS TAKING SO LONG FOR THE MANUFACTURER TO COME UP WITH THE REMEDY? IT IS PUTTING MANY DRIVERS IN DANGER.

THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 55,000.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN A RESIDENTIAL STREET, I RECEIVED A NOTIFICATION THAT MY CAR ESSENTIALLY WAS NO LONGER CHARGER AND WOULD CUT OFF. I WAS PROMPTED TO PULL OVER AND STOP THE CAR. I CUT THE CAR OFF. WHEN TRYING TO RESTART, IT WOULD NOT CUT BACK ON. AFTER ABOUT 20 MINUTES, IT DID RESTART BUT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON. I AHVE NOT DRIVEN IT SINCE. THERE IS AN OUTSTANDING RECALL ON THIS CAR THAT HAS YET TO BE REMEDIED AND THUS FAR HYUNDAI HAS NOT PROVIDED ANY SOLUTIONS.

SOMETIMES MY BRAKE LIGHTS ARE ON WHEN I AM NOT PRESSING ON THE BRAKES. WHY IS THIS HAPPENING. IT SEEMS THAT SOMETHING IS MALFUNCTIONING BECAUSE IT DOES NOT HAPPEN ALL THE TIME.

SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT GOES ON AND OFF LOAD GROWLING NOISE FROM ENGINE

IT STARTED WITH RANDOM ELECTRICAL/WIRING PROBLEMS. RADIO VOLUME, AC SUDDENLY STOPS WORKING, THEN STARTS AGAIN, ETC... NOW IT STARTS OR DOESN'T START AT RANDOM. WHEN IT DOESN'T START, I WAIT A FEW MINUTES TO AN HOUR, THEN IT RANDOMLY STARTS WITHOUT ANY BATTERY JUMP OR OTHER ASSISTANCE. LOCAL MECHANICS ARE NOT ABLE TO DIAGNOSE THIS ISSUE BUT TELL ME IT IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THESE CARS

WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE, THE CAR ENGINE COMPLETELY STOPPED. I WAS ABLE TO MAINTAIN STEERING AND BRAKES TO MAKE IT SAFELY TO THE SIDE OF THE INTERSTATE. NO WARNING LIGHTS WERE ACTIVE PRIOR TO THE ENGINE STOPPING. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN AUTO SHOP WHICH STATED THE ENGINE WAS SEIZED AND UNABLE TO MANUALLY TURN OVER. ATTACH IS THE REPORT FROM THE AUTO REPAIR SHOP. THE RECALL NUMBER IS 162 PER INTERNET SEARCH. I HAVE MAINTAINED SCHEDULED OIL CHANGES THROUGHOUT MY OWNERSHIP OF THIS VEHICLE

CAR MAX DIDN'T WANT TO DO ANYTHING FOR ME BECAUSE THEY SAID IT WAS AN OIL LEAK AND WENT I TOOK IT TO HYUNDAI THEY SAID THE O RING TO THE OIL COOLER WAS LOSE AND THAT COULDN'T BE CAUSE BY WEAR AND TEAR THAT THE PART WASN'T PUT ON RIGHT AND IT CAUSE THE OIL TO LEAK AND MY ENGINE TO SEIZE.

BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR. HORRIBLE GRINDING SOUND FROM ALL THE WHEELS. CHIMING. HYBRID SYSTEM WARNING.

CAR WAS IN MOTION ON THE ROAD AND IT SHUT OFF. RESTARTED, DROVE A FEW FEET AND ALL LIGHTS ON DASHBOARD CAME ON, A GRINDING NOISE CAME FROM THE ENGINE AND IT SHUT OFF.HAD IT TOWED TO A DEALERSHIP WHERE ALL RECALLS HAD PREVIOUSLY BEEN ADDRESSED. THE CAR HAS 110K MILES, THE DEALERSHIP SAID NONE OF THE CYLINDERS ARE FIRING AND HYUNDAI WON'T COVER THE COST TO REPAIR

1) ENGINE SEIZED UP DURING OPERATION. HYUNDAI DECLINED TO REPAIR UNDER A PROGRAM PRIOR TO OFFICIAL RECALL WHICH THE VEHICLE NOW FALLS WITHIN. I PAID OUT OF POCKET TO HAVE THE ENGINE REPLACED. 9/2021 2) THE HV BATTERY FAILED WITHOUT ANY INDICATION, WARNING OR DIAGNOSTIC ALARM AND CAUGHT THE VEHICLE ON FIRE WHILE PARKED OVERNIGHT CAUSING A TOTAL LOSS. 1/2021

MY CAR BURNS BULBS LIKE CRAZY. WHEN I WENT TO CHANGE MY TAIL LIGHT, I NOTICED THAT IT HAD COUGHT ON FIRE. IVE PUT 6 HEADLIGHT BULBS BOTH HIGH AND LOW BEEMS IN MY CAR IN THE LADT 2 YRS.. AND CHANGED MY TAIL LIGHT 2 TIMES. TAIL LIGHT HAD CAUGHT FIRE AND BURNED. NOT COOL..

MY 2013 HYUNDAI SONATA ISSUES: 1. MY HORN & LEFT SIDE OF MY STEERING WHEEL BUTTONS DOESN'T WORK. I WAS TOLD IT COULD BE RELATED TO FUSES OR CLOCKSPRING REPLACEMENT. TRIP A/B AND OTHER BUTTONS DOESN'T WORK , I'VE BEEN DRIVING FOR OVER A YEAR WITHOUT A HORN BECAUSE THIS ISN'T A RECALL. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE. 2. MY GEARS ARE START TO SLIP IN THE TRANSMISSION. I WAS TOLD IT COULD BE TWO THINGS IT'S EITHER THE TRANSMISSION OR SPEED QUALITY CENSOR. THESE CARS WERE MADE EITHER VERY FAST OR VERY POORLY OR BOTH AND THIS IS ANOTHER SAFETY ISSUE. 3. ELECTRICAL ISSUES. I HAVE TO MANUALLY ADJUST BY BACK LIGHT/BREAK LIGHTS DAILY BECAUSE THEY NEVER STAY IN PLACE. THE WHOLE WIRING FOR THIS VEHICLE IS HORRIBLE. SOMETIMES WHILE DRIVING THE CAR SUDDENLY STARTS TO SLOW DOWN. EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE MY RADIO IS ON BUT DOESN'T LIGHT UP. LIGHT BULBS ARE MELTING INTO LIGHT SOCKETS. ELECTRICAL ISSUES THAT ARE A SAFETY ISSUE FOR MANY WITH THESE MODEL CARS. EITHERWAY NONE OF THESE ISSUES WERE A PROBLEM UNTIL AFTER HYUNDAI PERFORMED ALL OF THE RECALLS ON MY VEHICLE. THEY CHARGE $200 FOR A DIAGNOSTIC THAT I'M NOT WILLING TO PAY , THESES ISSUES CAME FROM THE MAKERS OF THIS VEHICLE, THESE SHOULD ALSO BE ADDED TO THE RECALL LIST. I'M SURE IF YOU LOOK AROUND ONLINE THERE'S OTHERS WHO'S DEALING WITH THESE ISSUE FROM 2013 - 2021 TODAY. I DON'T THINK IT'S FAIR THAT I PURCHASED A VEHICLE AND HAVE TO COME OUT OF POCKET FOR ALL OF THESE REPAIRS THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN REPAIRED FROM THE BEGINNING. THESE ARE SAFETY ISSUES THAT SHOULD BE TAKEN MORE SERIOUS. I'VE ALMOST GOT INTO MULTIPLE ACCIDENTS BECAUSE MY HORN DOESN'T WORK. MY VEHICLE WORKED FINED BEFORE ALL OF THE PREVIOUS RECALL REPAIRS.MY TRANSMISSION SLIPPING LEFT ME IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE UNTIL MY CAR STARTED FUNCTIONING PROPERLY TO GET HOME.THE ELECTRICAL ON THIS CAR IS COSTING ME MONEY NON STOP. HYUNDAI NEEDS TO FIX THIS! 2.

THE ENGINE KNOCKS LOUDLY WHEN UNDER A LOAD. THE PROBLEM CAUSES A LACK OF POWER AND THE CONSUMPTION OF OIL WHICH RISKS ENGINE FAILURE DURING CRITICAL DRIVING SITUATIONS.

THE LIGHTS THEY GO OUT I REPLACE THEM THEY GO OUT AGAIN. THE LIGHTS BURN IN THE SOCKETS. I HAVE REPLACED 1 ALREADY MY BRAKE LIGHTS WILL NOT WORK AND THE LIGHTS THAT I BROUGHT WERE FROM HYUNDAI WHICH MEANS IT'S A PROBLEM WITH THE CAR.

BRAKE AND TAIL LIGHT CONTINUES TO BURN OUT. I HAVE REPLACED BULBS AND ENTIRE ASSEMBLY EVERY COUPLE WEEKS AND IT MELTS THE UNITS AS WELL AS MY ENGINE STALLS OUT AND WILL NOT ACCELERATE AND DOES THIS INTERMITTENTLY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HYUNDAI SONATA. THE CONTACT STATED BOTH REAR TAIL LIGHTS AND THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE HEADLIGHT WERE EXPERIENCING BULBS BURNING WHICH CAUSED MELTING OF WIRING INTO THE SOCKETS OF THE VEHICLE. THE BULBS WERE ORIGINAL PARTS. THE CONTACTED STATED THE FAILURE FIRST OCCURRED WHEN THE DRIVER SIDE REAR TAILLIGHT BURNED OUT, SHORTLY AFTER THE PASSENGER REAR TAILLIGHT AND FRONT DRIVER SIDE HEAD LIGHT EXPERIENCED THE SAME FAILURE. THE CONTACT REPAIRED AND REPLACED BOTH REAR HEAD LIGHTS AND BULBS HIMSELF BUT THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 82,000.

I HAVE TO CHANGE TAIL LIGHTS EVERY MONTH. NOW A NEW ASSEMBLY IS REQUIRED BECAUSE THE BLOWN BULB HAS MELTED IT. THIS IS VERY UNSAFE AND I'M TRYING TO AVOID TICKETS AND COURT IF POSSIBLE. ALSO THERE'S A SHORTAGE IN THE WIRING.

WHILE DRIVING HOME I HEARD A TICKING SOUND THAT HAD SOUNDED LIKE THE TICKING WHEN THE OIL GETS LOW, BUT I HAD GOT THE OIL CHANGE DONE ABOUT 2 MONTHS AGO. THE NEXT MORNING I HAD A IMPORTANT APPT AND WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY THERE I HEARD THE CLICKING TURNED INTO A VERY HARD CLANKING SOUND WHILE I PULLED OFF THE FREEWAY CAUSE IT WAS A SCARY NOISE I WENT TO PULL OVER AND THE POWER SURGED LIKE IT WAS GOING TO SHUT OFF SO I IMMEDIATELY TURNED IT OFF. AFTER A FEW MINS I TRIED TO TURN IT ON AND IT WAS MAKING THE SOUND STILL WHEN I PRESSED THE GAS PEDAL IT ONLY WENT LOUDER, I THEN TURNED IT OFF AND HAD TO WALK TO THE CLOSEST STORE THAT SOLD OIL AND WALK ALL THE WAY BACK I RECENTLY HAD HEART SURGERY AND I HAD STROKE 3 WEEKS AGO I CAN NOT BE OVER EXHERDING MYSELF LIKE THIS WHEN ADDING THE OIL IT MADE NO DIFFERENCE THE CLANKING SOUND GOT WORSEN AND NOW I'M WITHOUT A CAR WHEN I HAVE IMPORTANT APPS TO GO TO ALONG WITH MY TERMINALLY ILL CHILD THERE IS MAJOR ISSUES THAT NEED REPAIRED IMMEDIATELY

CAR DOES NOT ACCELERATE AT RANDOM TIMES WHEN PRESSING GAS PEDAL. KNOWN ISSUES IN OTHER YEAR MODELS OF THE SAME VEHICLE AND OTHER VEHICLES FROM HYUNDAI WITH BRAKE PEDAL STOPPER. HAS BEEN DANGEROUS DRIVING AND LOSING ABILITY TO ACCELERATE IN MIDDLE OF INTERSECTIONS.

THE ENGINE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. BROKE DOWN WHILE DRIVING ON A CITY STREET. THE CAR HAS LESS THAN 80000 MILES. I GAVE THIS CAR TO MY SON SO EVIDENTLY THE POWER TRAIN WARRANTY IS GONE. MY COMPLAINT IS THAT THIS ENGINE SHOULD HAVE LASTED LONGER. THAT IS WHAT HYUNDAI CLAIMS.

THE AIRBAG LIGHT STARTED COMING ON AND OFF FOR A WHILE UNTIL THE LIGHT STAYED ON ALL THE TIME. SO, IF I WAS TO GET IN A CAR ACCIDENT THE AIRBAGS WOULDNT WORK DUE TO THE SENSOR NOT WORKING PROPERLY. HYUNDAI WOULDN'T FIX IT BECAUSE ITS NOT A RECALL, YET IT IS A SAFETY CONCERN SINCE IT INVOLVES AIRBAGS. I AM SURE I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH THIS PROBLEM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HYUNDAI SONATA. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 20-30 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE FAILED TO RESTART. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DETERMINED A BEARING REPLACEMENT WAS NEEDED. THE LOCAL DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED HOWEVER, NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE WAS PROVIDED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 120,000.

THE STEERING COLUMN MAKES A VERY LOUD CLUNKING NOISE WHENEVER YOU GO OVER A BUMP IN THE ROAD. MUST OF THE TIME IT HAPPENS AT LOW SPEEDS. IT FEELS AND SOUNDS LIKE SOMETHING IS LOOSE OR WILL COME LOOSE. THIS CAN CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.

WHEN I'M DRIVING IT LOSES POWER. I HAVE TO LET UP OFF THE GAS PEDAL, AND THEN PUSH IT AGAIN SO IT WILL KEEP GOING.

ENGINE STARTED KNOCKING AND MAKING NOISE. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AFTERWARDS AND GOVERNED THE CAR SPEED. NO INDICATIONS OF WARNINGS BEFORE OR ANYTHING. SHOP NOW SAYS THE ENGINE IS SHOT. LOS ANGELES CALIFORNIA

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HYUNDAI SONATA HYBRID. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION THROUGH EMISSIONS OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 20V746000 (ENGINE) HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE RECALL REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE. HORNE HYUNDAI (1360 E.

THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

ROD BEARINGS GOT THROWN AND ENGINE SEIZED @ JUST OVER THE 100,000 WARRANTY. I NOTICED AROUND 80,000 THAT I WAS CONSTANTLY HAVING TO ADD OIL. SERVICE REP. SAID NORMAL FOR EVERY 700-1000 MILES. DEALER & MANUFACTURER SAID THAT REPAIR (REPLACE ENGINE) IS NOT COVERED. I HAD TO BARROW 10,000 TO HAVE THE ENGINE REPLACED. SINCE THE REPLACEMENT THE REPAIRED ENGINE BEGAN DOING THE SAME THING. MY MECHANIC BEGAN CHECKING THE PLUGS EVERY TIME I TOOK THE CAR IN FOR A OIL CHANGE (EVERY 5,000 TO 7,000 MILES) AND FOUND THAT OIL IS CAUSING THE PLUGS TO FOUL OUT AND SO I HAVE TO REPLACE THOSE EVERY 10,000 MILES TO AVOID CONSTANT MISS-FIRING AND POSSIBLE FIRE. THE BUAREU OF AUTOMOTIVE REPAIR HAS MET WITH THE DEALERSHIP ON THE ORIGINAL ENGINE FAILURE AND ON THE CURRENT PROBLEM (WHICH IS A REPEAT). THE FIRST MEETING THE DEALER TOLD THE REP. IF I COULD COME UP WITH THE 1 OIL CHANGE RECEIPT I WAS MISSING, THEY WOULD THEN PAY FOR THE REPAIR. THEY ALREADY KNEW I WAS UNSUCCESSFUL IN FINDING THAT. WHEN THE REP MEET WITH THE DEALER FOR THE CURRENT PROBLEM, THEY STATED THAT I HAVE NEVER BEEN TO THEM STATING A PROBLEM. I HAVE BEEN TAKING MY CAR TO A MECHANIC (TRUECAR CARE IN CAMERON PARK, CA). MY TRUST IN THE DEALERSHIP TO DO THE RIGHT THING WAS LOST A LONG TIME AGO. I'M DISABLED AND LIVE ON SSI. I CAN'T AFFORD ANOTHER ENGINE REPLACEMENT, OR THE COST OF PURCHASING ANOTHER CAR. I'M BEGGING YOU TO PLEASE HELP ME GET JUSTICE WITH HYUNDAI. MY STRESS LEVEL CAN'T TAKE MUCH MORE. MY SUPPLEMENTAL INCOME OVER THE LAST 3 YEARS HAS BEEN LOST DUE TO THIS PROBLEM. (I DROVE FOR LYFT & UBER) VEHICLE IS ALWAYS IN MOTION, STREET OR HIGHWAY. PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME @ [XXX]. MY SISTER WAS PRESENT WITH ME WHEN I SPOKE TO THE SVC. MGR. FOR THE ENGINE REPLACEMENT WHEN HE TOLD ME I WAS GETTING A NEW ENGINE AND WOULD NOT ENCOUNTER THE SAME PROBLEM. DATE OF FIRST FAILURE IS APPRX. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

I HAVE TO CHANGE MY PASSENGER TAIL LIGHT BULB EVERY MONTH THIS IS NOT NORMAL, NOW SINCE IT GOT OVERHEATED IT HAD MELTED TO THE SOCKET,I FOUND IT VERY HAZARDOUS

CLICKING OR KNOCKING WHEN WHEEL IS TURNED IN EACH DIRECTION

HYBRID DRIVE SYSTEM ALARMED AND THEN FAILED ON FREEWAY CAUSING CAR TO ROLL TO STOP.. 12V SYSTEM FAILED W/NO EMERGENCY FLASHERS, LIGHTS OR 12 VOLT ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS. ALL NON-OPERATIVE.

DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE WHEN THE CAR LOST POWER AND SMOKE STARTED COMING OUT FROM UNDER THE HOOD AT THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. AFTER OPENING THE HOOD SMOKE WAS COMING FROM AROUND THE FUSEBOX/ BATTERY AREA. AFTER TURNING THE CAR OFF THE SMOKE STOPPED. IT IS AT MACK GRUBBS HYUNDAI IN HATTIESBURG, MISSISSIPPI WAITING ON INSURANCE AND SERVICE TO ASSESS THE DAMAGE.

MY CAR'S ENGINE CAUGHT FIRE DUE TO A HYUNDAI FUEL LINE/ ENGINE RECALL

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HYUNDAI SONATA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH. THE VEHICLE LOSS MOTIVE POWER AND STALLED. THE VEHICLE FAILED TO RESTART AND WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE ENGINE WAS FAULTY AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT YET REPAIRED. THE LOCAL DEALER INLAND EMPIRE HYUNDAI LOCATED AT 25072 REDLANDS BLVD, LOMA LINDA, CA 92354, WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V226000 (ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING). THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE HAD EXPERIENCED THE SAME FAILURE LISTED IN THE RECALL. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 140,000.

BACK IN MAY OF 2020 MY CAR OUT OF THE BLEW LOST POWER AND MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STARTED FLASHING. I IMMEDIATELY PULLED OVER, I GOT MY CAR TOWED TO MY CLOSET DEALERSHIP AND THEY STATED IT WAS THE COMPUTER SYSTEM. 4 MONTHS LATER, THREE DAYS AFTER MY OIL CHANGE MY CAR COMPLETELY SHUTS OFF AND MY ENGINE STARTED MAKING THIS CRAZY NOISE. DEALERSHIPS SAYS MY ENIGNE IS BLOWN, I REALLY DONT UNDERSTAND HOW THAT HAPPENED. THEY WANT 6,000 TO FIX MY ENGINE AND I CANNOT AFFORD THAT ESPECIALLY NOW. THERES SOMETHING REALLY WRONG WITH THESE ENGINES AND ITS NOT SAFE NOR FAIR TO WHAT YALL ARE DOING TO PEOPLE. I WAS EVEN TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP THE SONATAS HAVE REALLY BAD ENGINES.

WHEN TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL I HEAR A CLICKING NOISE LIKE SOMETHING IS LOOSE OR BROKEN. THERE REGULARLY IS A BURNING SMELL LIKE HOT PLASTIC IS MELTING AND THE BRAKE LIGHT CONSTANTLY BURNS OUT. WHEN CHANGING THE BULB I NOTICED THE CASING APPEARS BURNED AND IT IS DIFFICULT TO REMOVE THE BULB FOR REPLACEMENT. I SMELL THE BURNING SCENT WHEN I STOP AND EXIT THE VEHICLE. THE CLICKING NOICE IS WHENEVER I TURN THE STEERING WHEEL.

WHEN TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL I HEAR A CLICKING /CLUNCKING NOISE LIKE SOMETHING IS LOOSE OR BROKEN. WHEN I AM DRIVING AND GO TO TURN THE STEERING WHEEL OR HIT EVEN A SMALL BUMP I HEAR A RATTELING / CLICKING SOUND COMING FROM SOMEWHERE IN THE STEERING COLUM.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, I'VE HAD SEVERAL INSTANCES WHERE I PUSH THE GAS PEDAL DOWN AND THE CAR DOES NOT ACCELERATE. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE IN OTHER HYUNDAI VEHICLES WITH THE BRAKE PEDAL STOPPER AND I'M WONDERING IF MY 2013 HYUNDAI SONATA IS HAVING THIS SAME PROBLEM THAT WAS RECALLED ON MANY OTHER VEHICLES.

THE STEERING WHEEL CLICKS THE STEERING WHEEL COUPLING HAS GONE BAD IN MOTION AND STATIONARY

BRAKE LIGHTS REMAIN ON, EVEN AFTER VEHICLE IS PARKED AND KEY IS REMOVED, DRAINING THE BATTERY. BRAKE LIGHTS REMAIN ON THROUGHOUT NORMAL OPERATION OF VEHICLE AND ONLY EXTINGUISH WHEN THE NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL IS REMOVED FROM BATTERY. WHEN POWER IS RE-APPLIED, THE BRAKE LIGHTS ARE LIT- EVEN WITH NO KEY ON THE IGNITION. HYUNDAI BELIEVES THE BRAKE PEDAL STOPPER PAD MATERIAL CAN DETERIORATE, WHICH ALLOWS THE STOP LIGHT SWITCH PLUNGER TO REMAIN EXTENDED WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL IS RELEASED BY THE DRIVER. THEY RECALLED MODEL YEARS 2011-2012, BUT THE DEFECT PERSISTS IN MODEL YEARS FAR BEYOND THIS- PAST THE 2014 MODEL SONATA THAT I HAVE DISCOVERED.

MY ENGINE WAS RECENTLY REPLACED DUE TO A SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT DUE TO FAULTY ENGINE WHICH DIED, THIS OCCURRED IN OCTOBER 2020 AND I RECEIVED MY VEHICLE BACK TWO WEEKS AGO WITH A NEW ENGINE. LAST NIGHT ON 11/19/2020 THE ENGINE IN MY VEHICLE BURST INTO FLAMES WHILE I WAS PARKED IN A RESTAURANT PARKING LOT. THE ENGINE CAUGHT FIRE WITH NO NOTICE AND I HAD TO CONTACT THE FIRE DEPARTMENT TO PUT THE FIRE OUT.

STEERING WHEEL MAKES CLUNKING NOISE WHEN GOING OVER BUMPS LIKE IT'S LOOSE SOMEWHERE. DEALERSHIP IS SAYING WITHOUT EVEN LOOKING AT IT REPLACE THE WHOLE COLUMN. BUT THEY SAY IT'S NO RECALL.

MY CAR TAKE MORE ENGINE OIL EVERY 400 MILES MY CAR NEED 1.5 LITERS ENGINE OIL AND MY STEERING SOME TIME STUCK AND WE FEEL NOT SAFE FOR DRIVING.

WHILE THE CAR WAS IN MOTION, THE WARNING SIGN CAME ON THE DISPLAY WITH THE FOLLOWING MESSAGE: HYBRID SYSTEM FAILURE. STOP. DO NOT DRIVE. LESS THAN 10 SECONDS AFTER THE WARNING, THE CAR LOST POWER AND STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET. THERE WAS NOT ENOUGH TIME TO PULL THE CAR TO SAFETY.

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT FLASHING, VEHICLE WILL NOT GO OVER 20 MILES PER HOUR AND JUMPS. STARTED SUDDENLY WHEN IN MOTION ON ROAD.

FRONT HEAD LIGHTS KEEP BLOWING OUT AS WELL AS BACKLIGHTS. THE WIRING HAS GOTTEN SO HOT THAT IT HAS STARTED TO MELT THE HOUSING THAT HOLDS THE TAIL LIGHTS SO THEY KEEP BLOWING OUT.

ANYTIME CAR IS RUNNING STATIONARY OR IN MOTION ITS A THICK WHITE/GRAY SMOKE COMING FROM MY EXOST ENGINE RUMBLES AS WELL.

CLICKING WHEN MOVING THE STERRING WHEEL FROM SIDE TO SIDE WHETHER MOVING OR SITTING STILL

THE ENGINE STOPPED IN MY CAR, AND THERE WAS A KNOCK AS THE CAR MOVED AT A SPEED OF 30 MILES. I FOUND INFORMATION ON THE INTERNET THAT MY CAR IS SUBJECT TO NHTTSA RECALL # 17V226000, CAMPAIN 162, DUE TO DEFECTIVE ENGINES. HYUNDAI UKRAINE REJECTED MY REQUEST TO CONSIDER THE COMPLAINT ABOUT THE ENGINE STOP, AS THE ENGINE IS MADE IN THE USA, AND HYUNDAI UKRAINE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH CARS PRODUCED AND SOLD OUTSIDE OF UKRAINE. HYUNDAI UKRAINE STATED THAT HYUNDAI DOES NOT COVER CARS WORLDWIDE WITH A GUARANTEE. SPEAKING OF RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE QUALITY OF THEIR PRODUCTS, I WOULD LIKE TO SAY THANK YOU TO JEEP, THEY HAVE A GUARANTEE ALL OVER THE WORLD. IF NECESSARY, CONTACT ME VIA MAIL, I WILL GIVE MY PHONE NUMBER. TO REGISTER A COMPLAINT, YOU NEEDED A PHONE FROM THE UNITED STATES. I WROTE THE NUMBER OF MY FRIENDS, THEY DO NOT KNOW ABOUT MY COMPLAINT. DON'T DISTURB THEM ABOUT IT

STEERING WHEEL MAKES CLICKING AND POPPING SOUND WHEN WHEEL IS TURNED LEFT AND RIGHT, THE VEHICLE IS ALSO PULLING VERY HARD AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE.

EVERY TIME THAT I DRIVE MY VEHICLE MY CAR STALLS AND IT ALMOST CAUSE ME TO WRECK. I HAD FUEL PUMP PROBLEM IN WHICH I SPENT OVER $1,000 TO GET FIXED IS STILL HAVING ISSUES AND THE HYUNDAI WILL NOT REFUND ME MY MONEY KNOWING THAT THE FUEL PUMP HAS A RECALL. THEY HAVE CONSTANTLY BEEN GIVING ME THE RUN AROUND.

THE HYUNDAI SONATA HAS A KNOWN STEERING ISSUE. THERE IS A LOOSE CLICKING SOUND WHEN STEERING. IT APPARENTLY IS CAUSED BY A FAULTY RUBBER COUPLING IN THE POWER STEERING MECHANISM. (PART # 57315 2K000FFF 'FLEXIBLE COUPLING'). THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS ONLINE ABOUT THIS ISSUE. IT SHOULD BE A RECALL TO REPLACE THIS PART WITH AN IMPROVED VERSION.

I HAVE A 2013 HYUNDAI SONATA HYBRID WITH AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. MY SONATA AFTER DRIVING ABOUT AN HOUR OR SO LOOSES ACCELERATION POWER. WHEN I COME TO A STOP AT A LIGHT OR STOP SIGN IT DOES NOT WANT TO ACCELERATE. SOMETIMES THE RPMS WILL PEAK OUT IF I DEPRESS THE ACCELERATION PEDAL TO THE FLOOR BUT THE VEHICLE WILL STILL ONLY CRAWL OR MOVE VERY SLOWLY 2-3MPH. IT IS SO BAD THAT SAY IF I'M ON AN INCLINE HEADED UPWARDS THE VEHICLE WILL ROLL BACKWARDS AS I'M TRYING TO ACCELERATE AND I HAVE TO ROLL ALL THE WAY DOWN AND SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF AND RESTART AND TRY AGAIN UNTIL I CAN GET BACK TO THE HILL AND OVER IT AND SOMETIMES I HAVE TO ALLOW THE CAR TO SIT A FEW HOURS AND COME BACK TO GET IT TO MAKE IT WORK. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS ISSUE THAT CAN AND WILL EVENTUALLY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT OR DEATH. ALSO AT A STOP LIGHT TO MAKE A LEFT OR RIGHT TURN I NEVER KNOW IF IT WILL ACCELERATE AS IT SHOULD THEREFORE I HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL THERE IS NO TRAFFIC AT ALL BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO MAKE MY TURN AND GET BACK INTO TRAFFIC. THERE IS NO CHECK ENGINE OR ANY WARNING LIGHTS OR SOUNDS WHEN THIS OCCURS. I HAVE CONSULTED WITH THE DEALER AND SEVERAL HYUNDAI SPECIALIST IN MY AREA AS WELL AS RESEARCHED THE PROBLEM ON THE INTERNET WHICH I FOUND SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM BUT NO ONE HAS ANY ANSWERS AS THERE IS NO WAY TO SCAN THE VEHICLE WITHOUT A CHECK ENGINE OR WARNING LIGHT. THIS IS TERRIBLE AS MY VEHICLE ONLY HAS 56275 MILES ON IT AND I CAN NOT GET IT TO WORK CORRECTLY OR EVEN IDENTIFY THE PROBLEM. I AM UNWILLING TO CONTINUE TO PAY MONEY TO DEALERSHIPS WITH NO ANSWERS AND BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE THE CAR IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE. IF ANYONE HAS ANY ANSWERS PLEASE HELP AS I DON'T EVEN WANT TO SELL THE VEHICLE AS IT IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE. THANK YOU.

URGENT. 1) DEFECTIVE ENGINE PER HYUNDAI'S ADMISSION. I WILL NOT ACCEPT A SOFTWARE 'BANDAID' APPROACH TO PATCH TO MY MAIN ECM TO RESOLVE THIS PROBLEM. I DID GO IN TO SHEPPARD MOTORS TO GET THIS BANDAID APPLIED TO MY CAR. THIS IS A BANDAID, AND SHAME ON HYUNDAI. MY ENGINE IS WARRANTIED THROUGH JULY 2023. I'VE BEEN AROUND. 2) MY CAR IS BRAND NEW, WITH ONLY 27,400 MILES ON HER 3) THE LATEST RECALL ON BOTH THE LOW AND HIGH PRESSURE FUEL LINE/ HOSES ETC. SHOULD I WAIT FOR A FIRE HERE? DEAR NHTSA: PLEASE LOOK UP ALL OF THE RECALLS AND EXTENDED WARRANTIES ON MY VEHICLE. UNACCEPTABLE TO ME. I BELIEVE THAT NO QUALITY CONTROL WHATSOEVER WAS PRACTICED AND APPLIED ON THE FACTORY PRODUCTION LINES. HYUNDAI FOCUS -- BIG MONEY. PRESSURING FACTORY WORKERS TO PUT IN ANY PART THEY CAN FIND. I HAVE SOME STORIES HERE ABOUT THE AUDIO SYSTEM ON MY CAR THAT WILL ABSOLUTELY BLOW YOUR COLLECTIVE MINDS. I'VE BEEN AROUND. 4) HYUNDAI LONG SINCE SENT ME EXTENDED WARRANTIES ON A) THE ENTIRE ENGINE B) BRAKE PEDAL STOPPER C) FRONT COIL SPRINGS D) SEAT BELT TENSIONERS (DRIVERS TENSIONER WAS ALREADY REPLACED, AND YET, IT STILL DOES NOT RETRACT COMPLETELY WHEN EXITING THE VEHICLE PRAY TELL, WHAT GIVES HYUNDAI? NEW CAR HERE. MY GREATEST CONCERNS ABOUT THIS NEW CAR THAT I PAID FOR IN CASH -- AND WAS DEFRAUDED IN THAT PROCESS AS WELL -- I COULD HAVE BOUGHT A HONDA FOR MUCH LESS, AND NEVER HAVE ANY PROBLEMS. I AM RATHER FRUSTRATED HERE AND PRAY FOR GOVERNMENT ADVOCACY AND INTERVENTION. THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH. #1 I NEED A BRAND NEW MOTOR, THE WHOLE MOTOR, WHICH HAS BEEN THOROUGHLY QUALITY CONTROL TESTED AND PROVEN, AND WHICH HAS BEEN COMPLETELY TESTED. MY MOTOR IS VERY, VERY NOISY. SO, DO I WAIT FOR THE ROD BEARINGS TO FAIL COMPLETELY AND STALL OUT MY CAR, CAUSING A FATAL CRASH? #2 I NEED BOTH MY LOW AND HIGH PRESSURE FUEL LINES AND HOSES, ETC. REPLACED

MY VEHICLE ONLY HAS OVER 150,000 MILES ON IT AND I KEPT UP MY MAINTENANCE. MY ENGINE HAS SEIZED MORE THAN ONCE. MY VEHICLE NEVER LET ME KNOW I WAS ON EMPTY, MY DASHBOARD SHOWED ME I HAD 3 LINES OF FUEL BUT IT WOULD NOT START UNTIL I PUT GAS. WHILE I WAS DRIVING MY ENGINE SEIZED, I CHECKED MY OIL AND I HAD ZERO FUEL, THIS WAS A MONTH AFTER MY OIL CHANGE. THE SECOND TIME MY ENGINE SEIZED I WAS TURNING ON A CITY STREET AND I HAD TO PULL OVER BECAUSE MY ENGINE SEIZED AGAIN. FOR SOME REASON, MY FUEL JUST DISAPPEARS WITH NO VISIBLE LEAKS.

WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON A STREET CITY ABOUT 35MPH THE ENGINE DIED THEN A MINOR ELECTRICAL FIRE STARTED.

HYUNDAI CORPORATION KNEW THAT WAS A PROBLEM WITH MY CAR AND IDENTICAL CARS STEERING WHEEL COUPLER AND THEREFORE INCREASED COVERAGE FOR REPAIR FROM 50000 MILES TO 100000 NAMING ' CONCERN' INSTEAD OF FAULTY- DEFECTIVE TO AVOID RECALL. THEY NEVER NOTIFIED COSTUMERS REGARDING THIS CONCERN! MOST INEXPERIENCED DRIVERS DON'T UNDERSTAND THE CLICK SOUND THAT LATER TURNS INTO CLANK WHEN PART IS TOTALLY DAMAGED AND THAT TIME THEIR CAR IS BEYOND 100000 MILES. HYUNDAI DEALERSHIPS FAILED INTENTIONALLY TO NOTIFY CUSTOMERS SINCE THEY HAVE BEEN BENEFITING CHARGING $380 TO $480 TO REPLACE $2 PART. IF YOU REVIEW ONLINE COMPLAINTS YOU WILL SEE SIMILAR SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF STATEMENTS. FURTHER MORE HYUNDAI CORPORATION AND DEALERSHIPS COMPROMISED LIVES BECAUSE OF VIBRATION OF STEERING WHEEL CAN CAUSE MAJOR ACCIDENTS YOU MAY OBTAIN COPIES OF REPAIR DOCUMENTS FROM HYUNDAI, DEALERS AND OWNERS REGARDING THIS ONGOING OUTRAGES ACT THAT TOOK PLACE INTENTIONALLY TO AVOID COST , LIABILITIES AND BENEFIT FROM REPAIRS WHILE DISADVANTAGING OWNERS, JEOPARDIZING LIVES AND GETTING PAID FOR SOMETHING THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN ' RECALLED ' . I CAN GIVE YOU AN EXAMPLE THAT HYUNDAI ISSUED SAFETY RECALL FUEL PUMP THAT SMALL CRACK CAN LEAD TO MAJOR PROBLEM AND NO TIME OR MILLAGE LIMITS APPLIED. ON THE OTHER HAND STEERING WHEEL FLEX COUPLER CAN START AS SMALL CRACK AND CAN CAUSE MAJOR PROBLEMS YET THAT FAILED TO TREAT THIS DEFECT SAME WAY AND FAILED TO NOTIFY CUSTOMERS

I STARTED TO NOTICE THAT THE STEERING HAS BECOME INCREASINGLY LOOSE IN MARCH OF 2020. RECENTLY WHILE DRIVING OVER EVEN THE SMALLEST BUMPS IN THE ROAD THE STEERING WHEEL HAS STARTED TO RATTLE AND SHAKE AND FEELS LIKE IT MAY COME OFF. I WORK FROM HOME, SO THE CAR HAS NOT BEEN DRIVEN A LOT AND MOSTLY IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD WHERE THE SPEED LIMIT IS 35 TO 55 MILES PER HOUR. I ASKED MY LOCAL HYUNDAI DEALER TO TAKE A LOOK AT IT WHILE I WAS THERE LAST WEEK (9/22/20) TO HAVE A RECALL FIXED AND I WAS TOLD IT WOULD BE $150 JUST TO LOOK AT THE STEERING WHEEL UNLESS THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL FOR IT. AFTER SEEING THE MANY COMPLAINTS REGARDING THIS SAME ISSUE, THIS SHOULD CERTAINLY BE FIXED BY HYUNDAI VIA A RECALL. I WAS CONSIDERING REPLACING MY VEHICLE WITH ANOTHER HYUNDAI NEXT YEAR, BUT DUE TO THIS ISSUE, PROBABLY NOT. IT IS DISCONCERTING TO DRIVE A VEHICLE THAT THE STEERING WHEEL FEELS THAT IT MAY BREAK. I HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED THIS WITH ANY CAR AND I HAVE BEEN DRIVING FOR 40 YEARS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HYUNDAI SONATA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT UPON INSPECTION OF HIS VEHICLE, HE BECAME AWARE THAT THE ENGINE OIL WAS BEING CONSUMED EXCESSIVELY, WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO EASTERN SHORE HYUNDAI (29736 FREDERICK BLVD, DAPHNE, AL 36526) FOR AN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST AND THE TEST DETERMINED THAT THE ENGINE NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED OR REPLACED. THE DEALER INITIALLY OFFERED NO ASSISTANCE BUT AFTER CONTACTING THE OFFICE OF CONSUMER AFFAIRS, THE DEALER OFFERED 75% OFF THE COST OF A NEW ENGINE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 109,274.

THIS CAR HAS SO MANY RECALLS ITS SCARY. I'VE HAD MY CAR CHECKED MULTIPLE TIMES FOR RECALLS FROM THE SEATBELT TO THE ENGINE BEARINGS. MY ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON A FEW MONTHS AGO AND I'VE NOTICED THIS CAR DOESN'T HOLD OIL WELL AND I HAVE TO CONSTANTLY CHECK IT. I WAS LEAVING A STORE ON A MAIN HIGHWAY AND MY CAR STATRED8TO JERK. A FEW MOMENTS LATER, THE WARNING LIGHTS ON MY DASHBOARD WERE ON. I PULLED OFF THE RIDE AND TRIED TO PARK AND THE CAR WOULDN'T STOP! I HAD TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK IN ORDER FOR THE CAR TO NOT KEEP ROLLING DOWN THE ROAD. THE CAR WILL RUN WHILE IN NEUTRAL BUT NOT WHILE IN DRIVE. THE SCARIEST THING WAS I THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO HIT A BUILDING NOT FAR FROM WHERE I PARKED. THANK GOD I THOUGHT QUICK. I'M DISAPPOINTED IN THE HYUNDAI BRAND. NEVER HAD I HAD SO MANY ISSUES WITH A CAR. ALL THE REPAIRS ARE SUPER EXPENSIVE FOR THE INCONVENIENCE CUSTOMERS HAVE. I LIKE MY CAR BUT WITH SO MANY DIFFERENT RECALLS AND ISSUES EVERY 6-12 MONTHS SHOWS POOR QUALITY AND ITS UNSAFE TO OPERATE. I'M UNHAPPY I PURCHASED THIS CAR AND FOUND 4 OPEN RECALLS AFTER IT WAS OFF THE LOT.

WHILE DRIVING THE CAR, SOMETIMES IT DOES NOT RESPOND TO THE PUSHING OF THE ACCELERATOR THEREBY EITHER SLOWING DOWN OR HESITATING CREATING SCARY AND HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS ON THE ROAD. THIS HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AT HIGH SPEEDS OR ON THE CITY ROADS IN SLOW TRAFFIC. THE BEHAVIOR IS UNPREDICTABLE AND UNCONTROLLABLE. ALSO, THE BRAKE LIGHT STAYS ON EVEN WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL IS NOT TOUCHED WHICH IS DANGEROUS WHILE DRIVING. UPON RESEARCH ON LINE, THIS IS NOT AN ISOLATED CASE BUT HAS HAPPENED TO A NUMBER OF HYUNDAI VEHICLES. IT SEEMS THIS HAS TO DO WITH EITHER THE RUBBER STOPPER OF THE BRAKE SWITCH OR THE FAILURE OF THE BRAKE SWITCH OR BOTH. I CALLED HYUNDAI AND WAS INFORMED THAT NO RECALLS HAVE BEEN ISSUED TO FIX THIS PROBLEM BUT THE WARRANTY ON THE STOPPER HAS BEEN EXTENDED TO 15 YEARS AND UNLIMITED MILES. THEY SHOULD EXTEND THIS WARRANTY NOT JUST TO THE STOPPER BUT TO THE WHOLE SWITCH ASSEMBLY. IT IS OBVIOUS THAT HYUNDAI HAS ACKNOWLEDGED THE PROBLEM WITH THE BRAKE SWITCH ASSEMBLY BUT IS NOT INFORMING THE OWNERS OF THE POTENTIAL SAFETY HAZARD CAUSED BY THE FAILURE OF THIS ASSEMBLY. IN REALITY THEY SHOULD ISSUE A RECALL TO REPLACE THIS ASSEMBLY.

MY STEERING WHEEL COUPLER IS BROKEN NO ONE IS ABLE TO DUE THE WORK ON IT MY WHEEL SHAKES BAD WHEN I GET ONTO THE HIGHWAY AND WHEN DRIVING STREET WAY ALSO ALSO THE BRAKES LIGHTS ARE KEEP GOING OUT I HAVE TO GET MY BRAKE LIGHTS CHANGED EVERY TWO WEEKS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HYUNDAI SONATA. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 20V121000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE) HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE RECALL REPAIR WAS NOT YET AVAILABLE.

TWO CRACKS (6 INCHES OR LONGER) HAVE APPEARED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE DASHBOARD (AROUND THE "AIR BAG" INDICATION ON THE DASH). I AM VERY CONCERNED THIS WILL COMPROMISE THE DEPLOYMENT OF THE AIR BAG IF NECESSARY. A FORMAL COMPLAINT (CASE#17284937) WAS LOGGED IN BY HYUNDAI, BUT NO REMEDY WAS GIVEN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HYUNDAI SONATA. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 18V934000 (ENGINE, FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE).

UPON RETURN OF THE VEHICLE, THE CONTACT STATED THAT HE COULD HEAR AN ABNORMAL KNOCKING SOUND FROM ENGINE WITH THE LOW COOLANT WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT WHITE SMOKE WOULD ALSO EMIT FROM THE ENGINE. THE CONTACT THEN TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE SAME DEALER WHERE HE WAS INFORMED THAT THE KNOCKING WAS DUE TO THE WRONG TYPE OF FUEL IN THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED TO USE 89 OCTANE FUEL IN THE VEHICLE INSTEAD OF 87 OCTANE FUEL. THE CONTACT SWITCHED TO 89 OCTANE FUEL HOWEVER, THE KNOCKING WITH THE WHITE SMOKE BECAME MORE PRONOUNCED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS THE VEHICLE SHUTOFF IMMEDIATELY AFTER START-UP. THE CONTACT CALLED THE DEALER AND WAS INFORMED TO BRING THE VEHCILE IN TO BE INSPECTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 196,000.

PERIODICALLY LOSING BRAKE PRESSURE CAUSING THE BREAK PEDAL TO GO DOWN THE FLOOR WITH NO BREAKING ACTION. NEED TO PUMP THE BREAK IN ORDER TO STOP. PLENTY OF BRAKE FLUID.

THE STEERING HAS BEEN PROGRESSIVELY GETTING WORSE OVER TIME. INITIALLY I STARTED WITH MY STEERING WHEEL LOCKING OCCASIONALLY. THEN STARTED SMALL CLICKING AND CLUNKING NOISES WHEN TURNING STEERING WHEEL OR GOING OVER BUMPS. NOW THE NOISE IS ALL LOT WORSE AND THE STEERING WHEEL FEELS LIKE IT WANTS TO COME OFF AT TIMES. I HAVE READ SEVERAL COMPLAINTS WITH THE SAME ISSUES AND YET HYUNDAI HAS NOT ADMITTED THIS IS AN ISSUE WITH THESE VEHICLES. I HAVE BEEN BASICALLY PLEASED WITH THIS VEHICLE UP UNTIL THIS ISSUE STARTED. A LOT OF COMPLAINTS I READ WAS THAT THIS STARTED AROUND THE 100,000 MILE POINT, WHICH WOULD BE CORRECT WITH ME AS WELL, IT STARTED JUST BEFORE I HIT 100,000 AND HAS CONTINUED AND PROGRESSIVELY GOTTEN WORSE.

STEERING COUPLER IS BROKEN BUT I CAN'T GET IT FIXED BECAUSE THE EXTEND WARRANTY ONLY GOES TO 100,000 MILES! I'M OVER THAT MILEAGE! THE PART IS VERY CHEAP BUT THE LABOR TO GET IT REPLACED IS OVER $300. PLEASE MAKE THIS A RECALL FOR EVERYONE ASAP!!! IT IS NOT SAFE FOR US TO BE DRIVING WITH THIS BROKEN PART!!

DRIVING MY CAR 2013 HYUNDAI SONATA FROM NYC TO OHIO, CAR OVERHEATED AND SHUT DOWN ON INTERSTATE 80 WEST BOUND POLICE MANDATED A TOW TO NEARBY MECHANIC WHERE THEY SAID MY THERMOSTAT ALONG WITH THERMOSTAT HOUSING WAS FRIED UP. IT WAS REPLACED ONLY TO 3 MONTHS LATER CAR OVERHEATED AGAIN, ALONG WITH GAS SMELLS IN THE AIR VENTS, AND STALLING AS WELL AS TOTAL ENGINE POWER LOSS. HOWEVER, COUPLE MONTHS LATER, RECALL 189 WAS ISSUED BUT DIDN'T RESOLVE OVERHEATING ISSUE, IN FACT MADE THE CAR REACTED MORE NEGATIVELY. ONE MORE MONTH LATER I WAS NOTIFIED OF HYUNDAI THETA ENGINE CLASS ACTION LAW SUIT SETTLEMENT AND PURSUED NEARBY DEALERSHIP WHO SAID THEY WOULD DIAGNOSE IT, WHICH SHOWED 7 CODERS SHOWING MISFIRE AND ONE FOR BATTERY FAULTY AND ONE FOR THE GAS RAIL AND PIPES. MY DEALERSHIP DIDN'T NOTIFY HYUNDAI THAT I MENTIONED MY CAR HAD BEEN STALLING, SHUTTING ITSELF DOWN A FEW TIMES AND HYUNDAI DENIED MY CLAIM FOR REPAIRS UNDER THIS SETTLEMENT WHICH IS A LIFETIME WARRANTY ON THE ENGINE. THERE IS EXTREMELY SOMETHING FAULTY WITH THE GAS PIPING ON THIS ENGINE

REAR TAIL LIGHT BRAKE LIGHTS GETS TOO HOT AND MELTS INSIDE THE SOCKET. IT'S A BIG FIRE HAZARD. THE HEAT MELTED THE INNER PART WHICH MADE ME REPLACE THE WHOLE TAIL LIGHT. BOTH LEFT AND RIGHT.

WHEN DRIVING, MY STEERING WHEEL SHAKES/RATTLES MAJOR ON HIGHWAY TO WEAR I HAVE TO HOLD THE STEERING TIGHTER TO TRY TO MAKE IT MORE SECURE. IT ALSO SHAKES/RATTLES JUST DRIVING THROUGH THE CITY AT LOWER SPEEDS. IT DOES NOT FEEL SAFE, SECURE OR NORMAL FOR THIS TO BE OCCURRING. IT FEELS LIKE IT IS THE ENTIRE STEERING COLUMN THAT IS HAVING ISSUES AND JUST SEEMS TO BE GETTING WORSE OVER TIME.

I WAS DRIVING VEHICLE AFTER GETTING GAS AND I SAY WITHIN 15 MINUTES AFTER, VEHICLE STARTED SHUTTING DOWN AND NOISE STARTED TO COME FROM THE ENGINE

THE PAINT IS PEELING ON THE HOOD OF THE CAR. ON THE DASH THERE ARE 2 CRACKS ONE ON EITHER SIDE OF THE AIRBAG ENCLOSURE. THE STEERING WHEEL HAS THE RUBBER PEELING OFF. THE PAINT ON THE TOP OF THE ROOF PANEL IS CRACKED/READY TO PEEL OFF. THE CAR WAS IN MY DRIVEWAY. I HAD TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION SENSOR WITH HARNESS 6/03/2030 I ONLY HAD 42171 MILES AT THE COST OF $751.47 . MY WARRANTY IS FOR 10 YEARS AND 100,000 MILES BUT THEY SAID IT WASN'T COVERED. I WAS DRIVING WHEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND I MADE THE APPOINTMENT IMMEDIATELY AND BROUGHT IT IN 6/03/2020 TO THE HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP.

FULL ENGINE SHUTDOWN WHILE GOING 70 ON THE HIGHWAY., NO BRAKES, GAS, STEERING WHEEL, BUT SURPRISINGLY I WAS ABLE TO ROLL SAFELY TO A STOP WITHOUT COMING IN CONTACT WITH ANYTHING/ONE. HYUNDAI AGREED THE ENGINE HAD SEIZED SO THEY REPLACED IT BUT NOT THE INITIAL ISSUE OF THE FUEL FEED LINE.(WHICH I GOT A RECALL IN THE MAIL THE NEXT DAY FOR A FUEL LINE) HYUNDAI HAS NOT GIVEN ME AN ESTIMATED TIME FRAME IN WHEN THIS RECALL WILL BE FIXED. KINDA SCARY TO DRIVE AROUND IN....

THE STEERING WHEEL COUPLE HAS FAILED , MAKES THE STEERING WHEEL FEEL LIKES IT CATCHES AND DOESNT WANT TO TURN. MAKES LOUD NOISE 2ND THE ENGINE WILL NOT ACCELERATE SOMETIME UNTIL YOU SHUT THE CAR OFF AND TURN IT BACK ON . THE STEERING IS ALL THE TIME. THE DEAD THROTLE PEDAL IS INTERMITANT

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE AT 70 MPH IN THE FAST LANE I RECEIVED LOUD ALARM "HYBRID SYSTEM WARNING! SAFELY STOP AND DO NOT DRIVE. ALSO ON THE DASH BOARD WAS A YELLOW TRIANGLE WITH AN ASTERISK. IN ADDITION THE RED BRAKE WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE CAR ACCELERATOR NO LONGER RESPONDED BUT LUCKY I WAS ABLE TO GET THE CAR TO THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY. IF TRAFFIC WERE HEAVIER (WHICH IT NORMALLY IS IN MY AREA) I COULD HAVE BEEN INVOLVED IN A HIGH-SPEED COLLISION. ONCE I GOT TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND PRESSED THE BRAKES, THERE WAS A VERY LOUD NOISE AND VIBRATION FELT IN THE SEATS AND BRAKE PEDAL. THE VEHICLE FINALLY STOPPED, I TURNED IT OFF, CHECKED THE BRAKES FOR LEAKS. I ALSO CHECKED THE BRAKE FLUID LEVEL. EVERYTHING LOOKED NORMAL WHEN I RESTARTED THE CAR, NOT ALARM. EVERYTHING CLEARED UP. THIS IS DANGEROUS. I HAVE SEARCHED THE WEB AND FOUND THAT MANY OTHERS ARE HAVING THIS SAME PROBLEM. FOR NOW THE CAR IS SITTING IN MY DRIVE-WAY. WE DON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING IT AND FROM WHAT I READ THE FIX IS EXPENSIVE. I HAVE A VIDEO OF THE DASHBOARD DURING THE MALFUNCTION IF NEEDED. THANK YOU.

HEADLIGHTS FLICKER WHEN DRIVING AND ENTIRE DASHBOARD LIGHTS GO OUT. THIS VEHICLE USES THE SAME PARTS AS THE 2014 KIA SOUL AND THIS ISSUE WAS RESOLVED FOR THE KIA SOUL ON TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN NO. ELE093. A QUICK GOOGLE SEARCH WILL SHOW THAT THIS IS A NORMAL PROBLEM FOR 2013 HYUNDAI SONATA VEHICLE OWNERS. THIS NEEDS TO BE A RECALL OR A TSB WITH OWNER COMMUNICATION TO BE FIXED RAPIDLY.

RECOMMENDED SERVICES BY KEYES MOTORS IN VAN NUYS IS TO REPLACE THE RIGHT AND LEFT TAILLIGHT LENS ASSEMBLIES BECAUSE. ON INSPECTION,THEY WERE FOUND TO BE BROKEN AT THE COST OF $1183.03. THERE HAS NEVER BEEN ANY IMPACT TO THESE LIGHTS. HYUNDAI REFUSES TO ADDRESS THIS EVEN AFTER MY COMPLAINT. ON INVESTIGATING THIS PROBLEM, NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ONLINE HAVE BEEN FOUND WITH OWNERS HAVING THIS SAME PROBLEM ON HYUNDAI SONATAS IN THE PAST DATING BACK BEFORE 2013 AND SOME 2014. SOME HAVING THE PROBLEM REPEATED AFTER HAVING IT REPAIRED.

VEHICLE ENGINE STALLED AT STOPLIGHT. HAD TOWED TO LOCAL MECHANICS SHOP FOR EVALUATION. AFTER SITTING OVERNIGHT THE CAR WAS DRIVEN APPROX 10-15 MILES AND IT RAN OK. SEVERAL WEEKS LATER, ON ABOUT JULY 22, 2020 THE ENGINE SHUT DOWN AT A STOP LIGHT, 6 LANE ROAD. CAR PUSHED TO SIDE OF ROAD AND TOWED TO MECHANICS SHOP. FOLLOWING MORNING WHEN MECHANIC CRANKED THE CAR THE ENGINE KNOCKED! THE MECHANIC, WHO IS A CERTIFIED 'MASTER MECHANIC' SAID IT WAS A ROD KNOCK. COULD ONLY BE REPAIRED WITH NEW ENGINE. THE CAR HAS 126,000 MILES. THE CAR WAS PUT INTO SERVICE BRAND NEW AS MY SON'E BUSINESS CAR FURNISHED BY HIS COMPANY. AT 90,000 MILES THE CAR WAS WHOLESALED TO ME FOR MY GRANDSON. WE HAVE COMPLETE MAINTENANCE AND OIL CHANGED RECORDS FOR ENTIRE LIFE OF CAR. WE CONTACTED THE DEALER WHO INFORMED US WE WOULD HAVE TO DELIVER THE CAR AND PAY $130 FOR THEM TO EVALUATE AND THEY WERE VERY DISCOURAGING THAT HYUNDAI WOULD HONOR ANY KIND OF WARRANTY. WE LEARNED THERE WAS A CLASS-ACTION LAWSUIT INVOLVING THESE ENGINE FAILURES SO WE INTEND TO PURSUE THAT COURSE OF ACTION. VERY, VERY DISAPPOINTED IN THE QUALITY OF HYUNDAI AND THEIR RESPONSE.

THE REAR LIGHTS MELT AROUND THE BRAKE LIGHT BULBS AND YOU CAN'T CHANGE THE BULB BECAUSE THE WHOLE WHERE IT GOES INTO MELTS BOTH SIDES ARE CURRENTLY MELTED

CV AXLES HAVE A KNOCKING SOUND SINCE I BOUGHT CAR WITH 50 THOUSAND MILES

YESTERDAY I WAS DRIVING AND OUT OF NOWHERE MY CAR SHUT OFF AND ALL THE LIGHTS CAME ON BUT THE CRAZY PART IS. THE CAR STILL WAS MOVING AND DIDN'T STOP UNTIL I STOPPED AND PULLED OVER.(SO WEIRD) I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND STARTED IT BACK UP. IT CAME ON WITH NO PROBLEMS BUT NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON AND IT'S FLASHING. I NEVER SEE A FLASHING CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. BACK TO THE STORY I'M DRIVING BUT I CAN ONLY GO A CERTAIN SPEED OR THE CAR WOULD STALL AND JERK LIKE IT'S ABOUT TO CUT OFF. I DID NOT REPEAT DID NOT STOP UNTIL I MADE IT HOME LOL. THE WHOLE TIME DRIVING IT KEPT STALLING. IN ORDER FOR ME TO GET HOME I HAD TO JUMP ON THE HIGHWAY BUT I TOOK BACK ROADS JUST BECAUSE I WAS SCARED THE CAR WOULD STOP ON THE HIGHWAY.O AND DON'T LET ME STOP AT A RED LIGHT HUNNI, IT'S TAKING ITS TIME TO GET UP SOME SPEED. THIS THE SECOND OR THIRD TIME IT DID THAT BUT THIS TIME THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. IS THIS UNDER A RECALL? IF NOT IT DEFINITELY SHOULD BE BECAUSE THAT WAS SO [XXX] SCARY DRIVING. THAT WAS THE LONGEST 23 MINS EVER LOL. PARTS OF THIS DOCUMENT HAVE BEEN REDACTED TO PROTECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

I WAS DRIVING VEHICLE AT ABOUT 30 MPH ON MAIN ROAD AND VEHICLE SHUTS OFF WHILE I WAS DRIVING. I ATTEMPTED TO GET A JUMP ENGINE DOES NOT START. WEIRD SMELL COMING FROM ENGINE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HYUNDAI SONATA. THE CONTACT STATED THE REAR BRAKE LIGHT BULBS WERE MELTED TOGETHER. THE CONTACT STATED THE LIGHT BULBS WERE REPLACED 8 TIMES HOWEVER, THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO ALLEN TURNER HYUNDAI LOCATED AT 6501 PENSACOLA BLVD, PENSACOLA, FL 32505, (850) 479-9667, TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE BRAKE LIGHT ASSEMBLIES NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

I AND MY HUSBAND BOTH OWN HYUNDAI'S. WE BOTH HAVE BEEN HAVING MAJOR ENGINE ISSUES WITH BOTH VEHICLES CONSUMING AN INCREDIBLE AND ABNORMAL AMOUNT OF OIL LEAVING US TO HAVE TO PUT IN OVER MORE THAN A GALLON OR MORE OF OIL INTO EACH VEHICLE. THIS HAS CAUSED US MUCH LOST TIME IN BEING ABLE TO ENJOY OUR VEHICLE. AFTER BOTH VEHICLES COMPLETING OIL CONSUMPTION TEST, BOTH VEHICLES RECVD ENGINE BLOCK REPLACEMENTS. THIS HAS NOT FIXED THE PROBLEM. BOTH VEHICLES HAVE REVERTED BACK TO DOING THE SAME THING. THE ISSUES STATED BACK UP AFTER ABOUT A YEAR. WE HAVE HAD TO NOT DRIVE THE CARS, PUT THE CARS IN THE SHOP, RENT OTHER VEHICLES TO DRIVE WHILE AT THE SAME TIME HAVE TO PAY THE VEHICLE MONTHLY PAYMENTS. THIS IS UNFORTUNATE BECAUSE THE MANUFACTURER, HYUNDAI ON PURPOSELY SELLING DAMAGED CARS AND LEAVING THE THOUSANDS OF OWNERS OF THESE VEHICLES TO HAVE TO DEAL WITH THE UNFLUX OF ISSUES THAT IT HAS AND CONTINUE TO CAUSE. BOTH VEHICLES ARE NOW BACK TO SQUARE ONE WITH BOTH NEEDING TO GO BACK INTO THE SHOP FOR MORE ENGINE WORK WHATEVER THAT MAY ENTAIL. THE DEALERSHIP HAS INFORMED US THAT THEY DO NOT HAVE ANY VEHICLES FOR US TO USE OR BORROW WHILE OUR VEHICLES ARE BEING MAINTENANCE. THIS IS ANOTHER INCONVENIENCE BECAUSE NOW WE HAVE TO PAY THE CAR NOTE, RENT A VEHICLE AND POSSIBLY PAY FOR ANY MAINTENANCE AND THEN HAVE TO DEAL WITH THE SAME MANUFACTURER TO TRY TO GET REIMBURSED. THIS HAS BEEN NOTHING SHORT OF A NIGHTMARE. WE WANT JUSTICE AND WE WANT THE MANUFACTURER HYUNDAI TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR MISCHEAVOUS AND SELFISH ACTIONS. THIS HAS BEEN ONGOING BUT THE VEHICLE WENT INTO THE SHOP FOR NEW ENGINES IN LATE 2018 AND MY HUSBAND AFTER MINE. WE COULD NOT AFFORD TO HAVE BOTH VEHICLES TO BE IN THE SHOP AT THE SAME TIME.

REMEDY FOR KNOWN RECALL STILL NOT AVAILABLE. THIS RECALL IS NOT BEING DONE IN A TIMELY MANNER. PROBLEM IS LOW PRESSURE FUEL HOSE WHICH MAY CRACK AND POSSIBLY LEAD TO AN ENGINE FIRE.

TOOK MY CAR TO (HYUNDAI SANOTA 2013 TURBO) TO DEALER TO GET BRAKE LIGHTS FIXED AND THE STEERING WHEEL FIXED ACOUPLE OF YEARS AGO...WHICH WAS COVERED BY MY WARRANTY THE UNDERWRITER NOTICE THE PAINT HAD PEALED FROM THE FRONT BUMPER AND STATED HE WILL HAVE THEM PAINT THE BUMPER AFTER HE CHECKED WITH SOMEONE THEY STATED THE OTHER OWNER HAD BUMPER WRAPPED SO HYUNDAI NOT RESPONSIBLE... SINCE THEN I'VE SEEN MANY OF HYUNDAI BUMBERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM 🤔 #2 WHILE DRIVING MY CAR LAST THIS WEEKEND A TAPPING SOUND COMING FROM ENGINE SO I CHAGED MY OIL...AFTER I CHAGED THE OIL THE I DROVE MY CAR NOT EVEN 2 MILES AND IT SEEMED THE TAPPING SOUND WAS GETTING WORSE... THE OIL AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND IT STARTED KNOCKING AND SHUT OFF NOW MY CAR WANT EVEN START MY EXTENDED WARRANTY EXPIRED 2/2020😖

I HAVE TO REPLACE BOTH FRONT AND BACK LIGHTS VERY OFTEN. THEY ARE ALWAYS BLOWING OUT. VERY UNSAFE. THERE HAVE BEEN TIMES WHEN BOTH FRONT LIGHTS HAVE GONE OUT AND I'VE ENDED UP IN VERY DANGEROUS SITUATIONS.

MY CAR HAS LOST POWER WHILE DRIVING. IT HAS NOW HAPPENED 3 TIMES. LUCKILY IT HAS HAPPENED WHILE ON A ROAD AND NOT THE HIGHWAY. THERE ARE OTHER TIMES WHEN I'M STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT OR STOP SIGN AND I CAN FEEL THE CAR LOSING POWER AND/OR SPUTTERING. THE CAR WILL TURN ON AFTER TRYING A FEW TRIES AND WILL HAVE THE ENGINE AND TRACTION CONTROL ALERTS LIGHTS ON. SOMETIMES I WILL HAVE TO KEEP PUSHING ON THE GAS WHILE STEPPING ON THE BREAK TO KEEP THE ENGINE REVVING SO THE CAR DOESN'T DIE. THE ARE ALSO TIMES WHEN IT SEEMS THE CAR LOSES POWER MOMENTARILY THEN KEEPS GOING. VERY SCARY AND DANGEROUS.

DRIVING DOWN HWY GOING LOCALLY ABOUT 45 MPH , HEARD BURST OF AIR AND WATER AND CAR STALLED AND CHECKED ENGINE AREA AND WATER AND RADIATOR EVERYWHERE AND IT WILL NOT CRANK.UNKNOWN THIS IS A RECALLED MOTOR THAT WAS REPLACED IN 2018 FOR A ENGINE RECALL AS WELL, PRIOR TO HAVING THIS VEHICLE IN FOR SEROTONIN THE STEERING COLLUM REPLACED AND THE DASHBOARD LIGHT THAT HAS INTENTIONALLY BE COMING OFF AND ON AT MONTHS OF TIME OUT AND ONLY SECONDS OF BEING WORKING PROPERLY,

I KEEP HAVING TO REPLACE LIGHT BULBS. THEY KEEP BLOWING. HEADLIGHTS FOG LIGHTS BRAKE LIGHTS TAIL LIGHTS.

HEADLIGHTS AND TAIL LIGHTS ARE CONSTANTLY BURNING OUT WAY EARLIER THAN THEY SHOULD. THEY ARE BEING INSTALLED PROPERLY. I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS ISSUE AND FOUND LOTS OF OTHER HYUNDAI OWNERS EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM. THIS IS A BIG SAFETY ISSUE AS I DON'T ALWAYS KNOW WHEN THEY ARE BURNT OUT.

ON 02/28/2020 I RECEIVED A NOTICE (HYUNDAI RECALL #189,NHTSA RECALL #20V-121) OF A DEFECT IN THE FUEL FEED LINE THAT COULD RESULT IN AN ENGINE FIRE. OVER 4 MONTHS LATER, HYUNDAI MOTOR AMERICA ADVISES THAT "WE ARE CURRENTLY PREPARING A REMEDY." IT WOULD SEEM THAT OVERCOMING THE RISK OF AN ENGINE FIRE WOULD BE ADDRESSED WITH MUCH MORE URGENCY SINCE BODILY INJURY AND PROPERTY DAMAGE ARE AT STAKE.CAN YOU ASSIST IN SPEEDING UP THE DETERMINATION OF A REMEDY

I REPLACED MY BREAK LIGHTS BULBS OVER 10 TIMES IN ONE YEAR, AND A NUMBER OF POLICE WARNINGS, AND I'M AN AFRICAN AMERICAN MALE. I'M TIRED OF BEING STOPPED FOR A BREAK LIGHT ISSUES.

OUT OF NO WHERE THE TRANSMISSION STARTED TO GIVE ME ISSUES. IT NOW TAKES LONGER FOR THE GEAR TO CHANGE FROM A STOP, REVING MY CAR PAST 4,000 RPM'S TO 5,000RPM'S. WHEN BREAKING THE GEARS JERK WHEN LOWERING, AND WHEN DRIVING WITH CRUISE CONTROL, MY CAR WILL NOT STAY THE SAME PACE. IT WIL LAG OR IT WILL KICK HIGHER, EITHER WAY MAKING MY CAR JERK.

THE LIGHTS TURN OFF AFTER TURNING OR EVEN JUST NORMAL DRIVING. THE DASHBOARD INDICATOR SHOWS THIS HAPPENING. THEN YOU JUST HAVE TO HOPE THEY TURN ON.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2013 HYUNDAI SONATA. THE CONTACT INITIALLY DISCOVERED A RECALL FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER :20V121000(FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE). JONES BEL AIR HYUNDAI (1504 BELAIR RD, BEL AIR, MD 21014) WAS CONTACTED AND CONFIRMED THAT HIS VEHICLE WAS INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. AN APPOINTMENT WAS MADE AND A NEW MOTOR AND FUEL LINE WAS PLACED INTO THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AFTER THE REPAIR, THE VEHICLE WOULD HESITATE TO START AS AN UNKNOWN WARNING LIGHT WOULD ILLUMINATE ON THE DASHBOARD. ON MAY 18, 2020, UPON ATTEMPTING TO START THE VEHICLE, WHITE SMOKE BEGAN TO EMIT FROM THE HOOD. THE CONTACT THEN EXITED THE VEHICLE AND CHECKED UNDER THE HOOD AS FLAMES BEGAN TO EMIT FROM THE VEHICLE.

THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO JONES BEL AIR HYUNDAI AND AN INSURANCE INVESTIGATION WAS CONDUCTED. THE MANUFACTURER HAD YET TO BE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 111,800.

BEGINNING AT AROUND 90K MILES, THERE WAS INTERMITTENT STUTTERING, ABOUT 2 SECONDS APART, WHEREBY THE VEHICLE WOULD LOSE POWER WHILE IN MOTION; AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, BOTH ON ACCELERATION AND DECELERATION OR COASTING. THE EPISODES WERE ONLY HAPPENING AFTER THE CAR HAD BEEN DRIVEN FOR MORE THAN AN HOUR. NOW, AT 92K MILES THE STUTTERING HAS INCREASED IN FREQUENCY AND TODAY I RECEIVED A "HYBRID SYSTEM WARNING! SAFELY STOP AND DO NOT DRIVE" MESSAGE WITH AUDIBLE WARNING CHIMES AND A "WRENCH" ICON ILLUMINATED. THIS TRIP WAS ONLY A TEN MILE TRIP, IN THE MORNING, OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE WAS ABOUT 65F. THE CAR HADN'T BEEN DRIVEN AT ALL THIS DAY PRIOR TO THIS EVENT. THE WARNINGS HAPPENED TWICE, LESS THAN ONE MILE TO MY HOME, AND I BARELY MADE IT TO MY DRIVEWAY, WHERE IT'S NOW PARKED.

MY VEHICLE WAS STOLEN IN MID MAY, AND LATER RECOVERED ON JUNE 1ST. I HAD IT TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THE IGNITION REPLACED. AFTER COMPLETING THE WORK THEY INFORMED ME THAT THE ENGINE HAD SEIZED. IT HAD WORKED PERFECTLY FINE PRIOR TO THE THEFT.

I STARTED MY CAR THE MORNING OF 7/3/2020 AND WHEN I STARTED IT I HEARD A LITTLE RATTLING NOISE THAT SOUNDED LIKE IT WAS COMING FROM THE FRONT TIRE. AFTER DRIVING HOME FROM WORK IT GOT WORSE AND I HEARD THE RATTLING KNOCKING NOISE EVERY TIME I ACCELERATED. IT EVENTUALLY GOT SO LOUD AND BAD I HAD TO PARK THE CAR. IT CONTINUES TO TURN ON BUT THE ENGINE IS KNOCKING WHEN I LOOKED UNDER THE HOOD. MY CAR HAS HAD A RECENT OIL CHANGE SO I DON'T KNOW WHAT COULD CAUSE THIS ISSUE. PLEASE HELP!!!

I AM INQUIRING ABOUT AN "OPEN RECALL" ON MY 2013 HYUNDAI SONATA GLS. THE OFFICIAL RECALL TITLE IS "CAMPAIGN 189" IT INVOLVES THE "FUEL LINE" AND COULD LEAD TO A POSSIBLE FIRE IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. I JUST PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IN EARLY JUNE FROM "GETTEL HYUNDAI/ BEE RIDGE IN SARASOTA,FL. LOOKING UP THE RECALL INFORMATION--IT WAS LISTED AS "NO REMEDY AVAILABLE." THE RECALL WAS ANNOUNCED ON 3/4/20... AND ACCORDING TO CONSUMER AFFAIRS SHOULD HAVE BEEN REMEDIED BY APRIL. AS I WRITE THIS WE ARE INTO JULY! I HAVE CONTACTED HYUNDAI OF AMERICA CORPORATE OFFICES AS WELL AS THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT OF THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I BOUGHT THE CAR. NEITHER COULD GIVE ME ANY ANSWERS AS TO WHEN THIS ISSUE COULD BE ADDRESSED??? ALL I WAS TOLD IS THAT IF I HAVE AN ISSUE WITH MY VEHICLE THAT CONCERNS CAMPAIGN 189... IT WILL REPAIRED--OF COURSE--FREE OF CHARGE. SO I GUESS IF MY ENGINE CATCHES ON FIRE ON A HIGHWAY SOME NIGHT--IT'LL BE TAKEN CARE OF?? I WANT THE RECALL ISSUE OF MY CAR ADDRESSED NOW !!! NO MORE RUN-AROUND AND STUPID SCENARIOS---FIX THE CAR. WHATEVER YOU CAN DO FOR ME WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED .

FEB 2020 CHECK ENGINE LIGHT FLICKERED ON AND OFF. OIL CHANGE WAS NOT DUE AT THAT TIME. I STOPPED OFF AT A LOCAL OIL SHOP, THEY TOPPED OFF THE OIL. THEN MADE AN APPT WITH HYUNDAI REPAIR SHOP. SINCE FEBRUARY I HAVE COMPLETED MULTIPLE OIL CONSUMPTION TRIALS. WHEN THOSE FAILED HYUNDAI RECOMMENDED A COMPRESSION/LEAKAGE TEST ON ALL 4 CYLINDERS. ACCORDING TO HYUNDAI THE CAR DID NOT MEET CRITERIA FOR PASSING, BUT DIDN'T FAIL EITHER. 1 CYLINDER FAILED THE LEAKAGE TEST. HYUNDAI RECOMMENDED FUEL SYSTEM SERVICE WITH FOAM CLEANER AT MY COST ($300-400). I REDID OIL CONSUMPTION TRIAL, MY CAR STARTED CONSUMING MORE AND MORE OIL AS I MOVED FARTHER AWAY FROM THE CLEANING SERVICE. I TECHNICALLY DIDN'T FAIL THAT OIL CONSUMPTION TRIAL, BUT BY THE LAST 1000 MILES I WAS USING 1.25 QUARTS. THEY RECOMMENDED ANOTHER OIL CONSUMPTION TRIAL, WHICH FAILED. NOW HYUNDAI IS RECOMMENDING THAT I DO A TEAR DOWN TO POINT OF FAILURE OF MY ENGINE TO DIAGNOSE WHY IT IS FAILING AT MY COST - ANOTHER $300-400. THE LOCAL HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP HAS STATED THAT HYUNDAI JUST NEEDS TO REPLACE THE ENGINE ALREADY. THEY STATED NOT TO WORRY ABOUT THE MILEAGE OF THE CAR BECAUSE JUST A FEW WEEKS PRIOR HYUNDAI REPLACED THE ENGINE OF A 2013 SONATA AT 230,000 MILES. HYUNDAI CORPORATE DOES NOT SEEM CONCERNED ABOUT MY ISSUES AND IS QUITE CAVALIER ABOUT IT. HYUNDAI CORPORATE EVEN CLOSED MY CASE # WITHOUT CHECKING TO SEE IF THE ISSUE HAD BEEN RESOLVED. NOT ONCE DURING THE LAST 5 MONTHS HAS HYUNDAI WARNED ME ABOUT THE KNOWN ISSUES WITH THIS ENGINE THAT THEY CAN LEAD TO CATASTROPHIC ENGINE FAILURES AND FIRES. I HAVE 2 YOUNG CHILDREN, WOULD THERE BE ENOUGH TIME TO UNBUCKLE THEM AND REMOVE THEM FOR THE CAR SHOULD MY ENGINE CATCH ON FIRE? HYUNDAI HAS A PRODUCT THAT IS KNOWN TO FAIL, THEY NEED TO DO WHAT IS RIGHT AND THAT IS TO REPLACE THE FAULTY ENGINES IN THESE CARS.

THE ENGINE IS MAKING A KNOCKING NOISE AND IT HAS LOST POWER. OIL LEVEL IS GOOD. I KNOW THERE WAS AN ENGINE RECALL ON SONATAS AND IT LOOKS LIKE THIS MAY BE A RECALL ISSUE

WHILE DRIVING, ENGINE STALLED. WAS ABLE TO PULL TO SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY. TRIED TO RESTART THE CAR, AND ENGINE WAS KNOCKING. HAD CAR TOWED TO DEALERSHIP. DEALER IS BALISE IN FAIRFIELD CT. SERVICE DEPARTMENT SAID THE ENGINE HAD A RECALL. #162. THEY SENT THEIR FINDINGS TO HYUNDAI MAIN OFFICE. THE FOLLOWING WEEK, THEY SAID THAT THE SAME TESTS HAD TO BE RESENT. THEN THE MANAGER OF SERVICE DEPARTMENT SAID THAT THERE WASN'T A RECALL. AFTER I WAS TOLD THERE WAS. I CALLED THE HYUNDAI DIRECTLY. I RECORDED ALL MY CONVERSATIONS WITH THEM. I WAS TOLD THERE IS A RECALL FOR ENGINE. THAT IT CAN STALL WHILE DRIVING. EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED TO ME. I SET A CASE NUMBER WITH HYUNDAI. I WAS TOLD THEY WOULD GET BACK WITH ME. THEY HAVE NOT FOR OVER A WEEK. HAVEN'T HEARD BACK FROM THE DEALER IN WEEK AND A HALF. I'VE BEEN TOLD THEY WOULD RETURN MY CALL. BUT HAVE NOT RECEIVED A CALL. IT'S BEEN 3 WEEKS SINCE THEY HAVE HAD MY CAR WITH NO RESPONSE. I ASKED FOR A LOANER CAR. I WAS TOLD THAT I WOULD ONLY GET A LOANER CAR IF HYUNDAI PAID FOR THE WORK. EVEN THEN, THEY PROB WON'T HAVE A LOANER CAR. HYUNDAI SENT ME A TEXT MESSAGE STATING THAT THE ENGINE WAS UNDER RECALL, #162

PURCHASED A 2013 HYUNDAI SONATA IN SEPTEMBER 2019 FROM HYUNDAI SUPERIOR NORTH IN FAIRFIELD OHIO. THERE HAS BEEN AN ONGOING OUTAGE WITH THE PASSENGER SIDE TAIL LIGHT OVERHEATING AND BLOWING OUT. I REPLACED IT THREE TIMES( NOVEMBER 2019, TWICE IN JUNE 2020) SINCE MY PURCHASE. THE MOST RECENT REPLACEMENT IT BLEW OUT THE SAME DAY. I SEEN THERE ARE REVIEWS AND VIDEOS ON THE INTERNET STATING THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH 2013 SONATAS. THIS IS A ROAD HAZARD AND ILLEGAL OPERATION OF A VEHICLE IF PULLED OVER BY LAW ENFORCEMENT WHEN WILL A RECALL BE ISSUED AND RESOLVED? TO ADD TO THE BULB /ELECTRICAL PROBLEM. A MONTH AGO A RECALL LETTER WAS MAILED FOR OVEHEATING MOTOR WITH NO REMEDY IN PLACE TO FIX IT. I FEEL LIKE I PURCHASED A LEMON WITH ALL THE ISSUES STARTING TO PILE UP. MY CAR ONLY HAS 68,000 MILES ON IT. AS A FIRST TIME BUYER THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE AND BENEATH MY EXPECTATIONS FOR HYUNDAI. I NEED THESE RECALLS RESOLVED IMMEDIATELY.

I HAVE HAD BOTH MY BACK LIGHT HARNESSES WHERE A BULB HAS BLOWN AND IT WAS SO HOT IT MELTED THE BULB ENDS INTO THE SOCKET AND I HAD TO REPLACE THE WHOLE HARNESS FOR ONE SIDE AND MIGHT HAVE TO REPLACE IT FOR THE OTHER SIDE AS WELL. THE VEHICLE INSIDE DASH LIGHTS WOULD ALSO START FLICKERING OFF AND ON AS WELL AS THE OUTSIDE LIGHTS WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. THIS IS CONCERNING TO ME AND I KNOW THEY HAVE HAD NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ON THIS AND IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE, BUT YET THEY HAVE NOT DONE ANY RECALLS. WHY PLEASE ADVISE. *TR

MY RIGHT BRAKE LIGHTS ARE ALWAYS GOING OUT. I'M ALWAYS CHANGING IT AND A FEW WEEKS LATER IT WILL GO OUT AGAIN. I'VE BROUGHT IT TO THE SHOP (ALLEN HYUNDAI, GULFPORT, MS) AND I GOT MY 'BRAKE LAMP STOPPER' REPLACED AND HE SAID MY LIGHTS SHOULD WORK FINE. I ORIGINALLY BROUGHT IT IN BECAUSE MY 3RD BRAKE LIGHT WOULD STAY ON WHILE I'M DRIVING AND IT WOULD CAUSE ME TO NOT BE ABLE TO ACCELERATE WHILE DRIVING. IT GOES NOW, BUT SEEMS LIKE IT HAS TROUBLE CATCHING SPEED. I'VE SPOKE TO OTHER SONATA OWNERS AND THEY TOO HAVE PROBLEMS WITH THEIR RIGHT BRAKE LIGHT GOING OUT. IT'S A HAZARD AND IT ALSO CAN GIVE US TICKETS FROM THE POLICE. PLEASE HAVE THIS LOOKED IN TO. *TR

ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS, I AM PULLED OVER FOR HAVING A LEFT TAIL-LIGHT THAT IS OUT. I HAVE UTILIZED MY LOCAL HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP RECENTLY TO ADDRESS THE SITUATION AS I FREQUENTLY CHANGE THE LIGHT BULB OUT, AND END UP WITH YET THE SAME LIGHT OUT WITHIN DAYS/WEEKS. AFTER I HAVE PAID THE DEALERSHIP ROUGHLY $75 TO GET A 'BRAKE SWITCH' REPLACED TO ADDRESS THE PROBLEM, MY LIGHT IS OUT ONCE AGAIN. *TR

MY HEAD LAMP BULB HAVE BEEN REPLACED 3 TIME IN THE PAST 6 MONTHS AND THE BRAKE LIGHT BULBS HAVE BEEN REPLACED 5 TIMES AS OF TODAY. THERE HAS GO TO BE SOMETHING THAT IS CAUSING THIS TO HAPPEN. NO BULBS SHOULD HAVE TO BE REPLACED THIS OFTEN. *TR

THE ENGINE SEIZED ON JULY 31 WHILE ON VACATION. WE WERE DRIVING INTO MERCED, CA, ON HIGHWAY 140, AND HAD ACCELERATED TO PASS A LINE OF CARS WHEN THE ENGINE QUIT. WE WERE ABLE TO GET TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND HAD AAA TOW IT INTO MERCED HYUNDAI. HYUNDAIUSA AGREED IT WAS A FACTORY DEFECT AND PAID FOR THE REPLACEMENT, AND ULTIMATELY A RENTAL CAR FOR US TO USE (THEY ALSO REIMBURSED THE COST OF THE RENTAL WE HAD TO USE BEFORE THEY AUTHORIZED THE REPAIR). THE ENGINE WAS REPLACED AT THAT DEALERSHIP (AFTER 5 WEEKS OF CALLING JUST ABOUT EVERY DAY AND BEING IGNORED). WE PICKED IT UP ON SEPT. 6. ONCE AT HOME, A PROBLEM WITH THE FUEL RAIL WAS DISCOVERED. OUR LOCAL DEALER 'FIXED' IT, AND WHEN WE PICKED IT UP THE TURBO NO LONGER WORKED AND THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER QUIT FUNCTIONING. WE ARE TRYING TO GET THE DEALER TO FIX IT OR BUY IT BACK AT THEIR COST, SINCE WE FEEL IT WAS NEGLIGENCE ON THEIR PART. WE LOVED THE CAR BEFORE THE ENGINE SEIZED, BUT SINCE THE 'REPAIR,' IT HAS BEEN NOTHING BUT TROUBLE.

EXCESSIVE CONSUMPTION OF ENGINE OIL. IT IS NOT LEAKING OUT ANYWHERE. IT IS BURNING THE OIL AT A RAPID RATE.

STARTER, CAR WILL NOT START

THE CAR WILL SHUT OFF RANDOMLY WHILE DRIVING AND WILL NOT DRIVE. IT HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES ON THE INTERSTATE. MOVING AT 55+ MILES PER HOUR. IT WILL NOT TURN THE ENGINE ON.

AFTER FILLING MY CAR UP WITH FUEL I WILL SMELL GAS VERY STRONG INSIDE THE CAR. IT HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES. SO, I NO LONGER FILL UP THE GAS TANK. I TOOK IT TO AN AUTO REPAIR SHOP AND THEY TOLD ME WHAT IT WAS AND NOT TO FILL THE TANK. CAR WAS IN PARK AT THE GAS STATION NOT MOVING.

HAVING TO REPLACE EXTERIOR BACK RUNNING / BRAKE LIGHT BULBS AT LEAST OR NEAR EVERY 2 MONTHS. NOTICED THAT MAYBE THE BULB IS GETTING TO HOT CAUSING THE LENS TO WRAP WHICH IS MAKING CHANGING THE BULB A REAL TASK AND HARD TO GET THE BULB BACK IN PLACE. GETTING READY TO CHANGE IT AGAIN TODAY (3/10/2020).

RECENTLY BOUGHT MY CAR FROM MAXWELL FORD AND ENGING KNOCK LOUDLY AFTER ONLY 4 MONTHS OF DRIVING. WAS TOLD BY MY MECHANIC THAT THERES METAL SHAVINGS IN OIL AND OIL PAN DAMAGE. TOLD HYUNDAI AND THEY REFUSED MY CLAIM.

I WAS GOING DOWN A CITY STREET GOING ABOUT 35 OR 40 AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE CAR JUST SHUT DOWN I LOST POWER STEERING OFF BRAKES I WAS ABLE TO TURN INTO A PARKING LOT AND BEFORE THAT I HAD KIND OF THOUGHT THAT IT IT WASN'T REALLY FEELING LIKE IT WANTED TO GO.

THE ENGINE IN THIS PARTICULAR MODEL IS HYUNDAI'S 2.4L GDI (THETA II). THE ENGINE SEIZED WITHOUT WARNING EVEN THOUGH IT HAD THE SOFTWARE UPDATE THAT DETECTS ENGINE WEAR AND PREVENTS ENGINE FAILURE WHILE DRIVING. HYUNDAI DID WELL AND REPLACED THE ENGINE UNDER WARRANTY AND PROVIDED ME A RENTAL VEHICLE. 8,000 MILES LATER WITH THE SAME VEHICLE NOW THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS FLASHING AND ACCELERATION IS DRAMATICALLY REDUCED. I WAS ABLE TO TAKE SOME BACKROADS WITH LITTLE TRAFFIC TO A LOCAL HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP AND AM WAITING FOR DIAGNOSIS AGAIN.THIS STARTED ON A VERY BUSY LOCAL HIGHWAY.

EVERY TIME I GO TO START MY CAR IT GIVES ME A WARNING TO CHECK BRAKES. I READ ONLINE THAT MANY HYUNDAI OWNERS ARE HAVING SIMILAR ISSUES. THIS WARNING KEEPS THE ENGINE FROM STARTING. ALONG WITH THIS, THERE ARE ALSO ISSUES WITH THE STEERING COLUMN AND SUSPENSION.
