Hyundai Sonata Change Vehicle

“confusing, distracting poor interfaces”

“Froze”

“The nav system did not recognize our correct location for about 2 months. It placed our car anywhere from 2 to 300 miles from our actual location. However, the problem seemed to correct itself, after we took the car to the dealer and was told that”

“GPS system malfunctions unpredictably during operation. The on-screen route map suddenly goes off-track in relation to the car icon and the system then starts giving new audible directions when the car is actually on course. But on unfamiliar roads”

“GPS has never worked properly. Dealer notified Hyundai, but there was never a response from Hyundai and dealer refused to do anything so issue remains. The thing though that is truly SERIOUS is that my car repeatedly had issues with the alarm system going off and not being able to disarm ed, so that the car dies and I have to have a tow company come. The last time resulted in a tow to the shop. Again dealer has repeatedly said they didn't know what the problem was and couldn't do anything. Th”

“Touch screen lost much of it's sensitivity so pushing a Z brought up a S or some other letter. Same with the number's screen”

“Phone does not always pair with car. Dealer can't find problem nor duplicate it”

“Phone pairing is inconsistent. Pair the phone and it works fine for a few days. Then, it doesn't work and the solution seems to be to delete the phone from the car's Bluetooth system and then re-establish the pairing. Very cumbersome”

“button on steering wheel will not answer incoming call”

“The phone does not stay connected consistently and it is very annoying when I forget to check if it is connected and hear the phone ringing in my purse and cannot answer! The dealer has worked on this to no avail”

“The phone pairing would not "stick", that is, would not recognize the phone each time I entered the car. After a number of attempts, the dealership has now got the car to consistently recognize the phone, but it still will not access or recognize”

“Just doesn't work well. Problems with connections”

“Bluetooth connection terminates randomly: Overnight sometimes; after a brief shopping event etc. VERY annoying”

“It "dies" if the interior temperature of the vehicle rises above 90 degrees. This kills bluetooth, SiriusXM, and AM/FM. Reset occurs overnight if the temp drops 20+ degrees or if I pull the fuse out and push it back in. It is annoying”

“screen periodically went blank”

“Static they replaced rear windshield with antenna and then replaced shark fin which solved the problem”

“HD radio is continuously on then off - very frustrating”

“The radio has been replaced, yet I continue to lose sound/service on Sirius/XM in places other than under bridges and solid walls...that were not a problem in a previous Hyundai. There is a problem with this particular radio!”

“IT STOPPED WORKING”

“froze onoshort trip”

“Car's system stopped accepting Sirius. It was a problem with the antenna system and the entire system had to be rewired- twice- before they located and corrected the problem. The dealership had to call head office- twice- to get instructions on wha”

“The radio will glitch and reset to factory defaults. I have to reset all my presets. This has happened at least three times in 3 years”

“The radio unit had an electrical short in it and stopped working”

“cruise control replaced 3 times”

“Set for cruise often does not work. The answer button for Bluetooth on steering wheel no longer works”

“the steering wheel controls for the radio/CD/entertainment system fail to work properly intermittently. I originally had this repaired under warranty because it also affected the cruse control (which did not work correctly). It was repaired under warranty but now does not work correctly”

“often the voice commands are not understood. The Blue Link Navigation was the real problem”

“doesn't understand commands”

“Contact list all screwed up, multiple times”

“it stinks--------”

“Command given to stop immediately and take to garage. Was a loss of ground in the electrical system. Hopefully corrected!”

“No matter how I said, the system could not understand non-accented English. Ended up cancelling the GPS system as my smart phone was easier to set-up, use, and control”

“GPS misinterprets voice commands & address input. Keyboard Input often has errors”

“When requesting contact names for making a call, only a few people consistently come up correctly. Sometimes the list that come up isn't even close to the name requested”

“It syncs with my phone no problem, but my contacts don't sync ever since I switched from an iPhone 4 to an iPhone 6. This means I can't tell the car who to call and I can't tell it to repeat a recent call. Very disappointing!”

“The camera stopped working. Hyundai replaced it at 91000 KM as a goodwill gesture even though it was long past the "warranty"”

“Works only intermittently. I think this is caused by a loose wire since the mechanism is on the trunk opening”

“Replaced tweeters in last 12 months, and now Bass speakers need replacing”

“Both front anti-sway bar links needed to be replaced”

“Steering wheel coupling broke”

“bump feel when turning stearing wheel Recall problem fixed”

“needed to have dealer replace power steering coupling”

“Tires kept getting flats finally replaced all tires much better wish I had done it earlier”

“Second set of tires on this vehicle are cupping/scalloping just like the stock tires did. Problem exist somewhere in the suspension but unsure where the problem lies. The tires are very loud due to the cupping”

“I was advised that my rear suspension would need to be replaced soon. I've been putting off the repair because my car rides fine currently and the quoted cost is too expensive (IMO) given the residual value of my car (>15%). If it fails, I will probably just try to use it as a trade-in for a new car”

“The left rear shock was found to be leaking. Hyundai replaced both rear shocks under warranty”

“Excessive play when steering, dealer replaced under warranty”

“Lots of play in steering wheel. Dealer fixed no charge. Said this is a known problem”

“Steering wanders constantly at highway speeds. This is a common, documented problem that Hyundai is not addressing”

“Just a worn joint in the steering column”

“(?)Had to replace the steering column. First diagnosd as needing new shocks/struts/tie rod but that did not fix problem (loud noise when driving on unpaved patches of road). Took long time, over a week, to order part and repair. Repair was under warranty so I didn't pay for it”

“rubber bushing in the steering column; covered by warranty recall”

“The power steering coupler has to be replaced but was covered under the extended warranty”

“not smooth action when turning steering wheel, notchy feel”

“Steering would stick in a spot while driving. This was very dangerous and Huyndai replaced the entire steering column and linkage. No problems since”

“Steering column clicked when turning wheel from side-to-side. Progressing got worse with loud clunk from steering column anytime I drove over rough pavement at slower speeds. Dealer replaced failed rubber coupling in the motor driven power steering assembly. Hyundai recently provide warranty extension to cover this repair for 10 yrs or 100K miles”

“Worked intermittently. Dealer could not diagnose (so they said) unless car was brought in during failure”

“Needed to replace the on/off button 2x, get the software upgraded. Cheap components”

“The set and cancel buttons did not work correctly. I was told the problem was caused by the brake switch”

“Will not set without pounding on the steering wheel a few times and sometimes will not disengage without hitting the break. Had it replaced and after a few weeks the problems started again”

“they were not bright enough and pointed down so that the top half of the windshield view was dark”

“Headlights burn out constantly as do brake, daytime and flashers. Spent 600 CAD to date. Electrical issues still occurring. Source of issue has not been identified. The issue got worse i.e. bulbs burning out more frequently after car repairs due to an accident; however, I had replaced my headlights at least 3 times since I began financing the car in 2014”

“blown lights”

“Had to replace the wiring harnesses for both tail light assemblies”

“I was told the bulbs used for the running lights are after market bulbs that do not last long”

“Unable to determine where the problem is as of right now. It's a rear seat heater and we live in Texas, No rush to repair on my end. Dealer ordered replacement switch but that did not repair the problem. Awaiting time to get to dealer when the HYBRID”

“Someimes when I beep the horn, the two tones sound like a dying horn. Probably relates to the cruise control description I just made. Occasionally when I honk the horn, radio station mode changes, e.g. from FM to AM”

“The monitor keeps going off and I take it back and they tell me it's telephone receivers that is the problem. I have taken the car back 10 times and nothing was done, very dissatisfied with the service”

“When warning comes on, all other functions are disabled”

“Dealer repaired”

“Faulty oxygen sensor, triggering "check engine" dashboard warning light”

“Power door locks have failed twice on this vehicle with the most recent occurrence in the past 12 months. Dealership had the vehicle for 10 days as they made multiple attempts to fix”

“Washer moter failed”

“Washer fluid pump only delivered a trickle of fluid. This made winter driving unsafe. Pump was replaced under warranty”
