Hyundai Sonata Change Vehicle

"I can't see very far ahead of the car at night. I have over 2 million miles behind the wheel and this is the first car where I can't see signs, animals, or exits ahead of me so I do not drive this car at night time because it is so dangerous. I can only see 3 white lines ahead at a time and twice I had a dealer check them and they said they were in specs."

"We are having to replace the driver side map light."

"I experienced the issue with the tires very often which was horrible. When I started the leasing of the car, I also purchased the extended warranty for the tires (a very bad choice), that the finance person spoke highly of. That purchase was definitely a waste of money and did not work as I was told it would work. The warranty company has not paid the $130.00 plus that is due to the finance company."

"minor rattle on bumpy roads."

"Same wear and teared damages as in servo electronics are in joints and structural cabin."

"Body rattles and creaks started within 6 months of ownership. Took several visits to fix but I still have minor ongoing creaks/rattles from time to time."

"Check engine light came on seven times. Each time the engine was performing normally at the time it came on. Each time the dealership checked out the issue then reported their findings to Hyundai's Technical Support and implemented their solutions only to have the check engine light return within a few days of returning it to me. The sixth time they chose to replace the engine. When the problem returned they next updated computer software. Nearly a year since and 25000 miles with zero problems."

"Check engine light came on and engine performance was restricted to only mild acceleration. Dealer updated ECM at no charge to correct the problem. The explanation was that the knock sensors were not being read correctly in the prior ECM update."

"Computer is reporting a serious error that puts car into limp mode. Dealer is still investigating."

"It did not want to release. They replaced it."

"I had just put groceries in the trunk of the car when the hatch would not open. As I had frozen items in the trunk I took it to potamkin hyundai in the Hialeah area. They replaced the trunk lock and fixed the problem in a few hours. There was no charge."

"The trunk would not latch closed upon my returning from a trip and putting my luggage in the trunk. First time that's ever happened to me in almost 40 years of owning vehicles, much less a vehicle that was not yet a year old."

"Power steering went out while backing out of my driveway. I had to turn car off and restart to be able to get car out of the road. Hyundai did a test and had to replace the steering column."

"Loose bolts caused noise. Took 2 visits to convince dealer there was a problem, not acknowledged until service manager went for drive with me."

"Vehicle will hesitate for a couple seconds upon acceleration between 1st and 2nd gear."

"This vehicle has a pause on initial acceleration from a stop causing near accidents with oncoming vehicles. I reported it to the dealer service department but they say that is normal computer operation. Poor design."

"Very slow warmup in temperatures below 32 F"

"When turning the heater selection to floor heat the fan continues to try and blow heat to the defrost. You can tell that there is a blockage and heat from the floor is extremely poor. I have reported this to the dealer service department and they stated that's how the system is designed. I disagree and believe they do not know how to fix it."

"went bad"

"sensor and wiring harness problem limited speed of car"

"ON 3/15/2017 AROUND 8AM, I STARTED MY CAR TO LEAVE FOR WORK AND THE CAR SHOWED A WARNING CHECK HYBRID SYSTEM AND THE CORRESPONDING WARNING LIGHT CAME ON. THE GASOLINE ENGINE ALSO STARTED RIGHT AWAY AND STAYED ON, EVEN THOUGH THE EV BATTERY WAS FULL. THE ENGINE REMAINED ON THROUGHOUT MY COMMUTE TO WORK AND BACK TO HOME IN THE EVENING. I PLUGGED THE CAR IN MY GARAGE FOR CHARGING OVERNIGHT WITH THE TIMER SET TO START THE CHARGING AT 10PM. AROUND 10:45PM, MY WIFE AND I OPENED THE INTERNAL GARAGE DOOR FROM INSIDE THE HOUSE AND IMMEDIATELY SMELLED EXHAUST FUMES AND HEARD THE ENGINE RUNNING. I OPENED THE GARAGE OVERHEAD DOOR RIGHT AWAY AND UNPLUGGED THE CHARGING CABLE WHICH TURNED THE ENGINE OFF. JUST TO BE SURE, I PLUGGED THE CABLE IN AGAIN AND TURNED OFF THE TIMER TO RESTART THE CHARGING IMMEDIATELY. AS SOON AS THE CHARGING STARTED, THE ENGINE CAME ON AND AFTER A FEW SECONDS STARTED REVVING UP ALSO. I IMMEDIATELY UNPLUGGED THE CHARGING CABLE AND ENGINE STOPPED. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER TODAY AND AM WAITING TO HEAR BACK FROM THE DEALER. THE FINAL DIAGNOSIS WAS A FAILED WATER PUMP!"

"The electric coolant pump fuse blew and the pump and the wiring to the pump from the fuse block had to be replaced"

"The transmission does not shift smoothly but vibrates at every shift"

"The electrical problem started after the first year of driving the car. Without the electrical system working properly, the car could not be driven at all. When the car was tolled to the dealership for service, I was told that they did not know how to repair the issue that continued to happen constantly. I was very tired of going through that problem."

"Battery failed. No indication of weak battery before failure. Unusual for a car of this age to need a battery replacement."

"The light went on 9 months after purchase. I need to take it to the dealership to have it fixed."

"The car had 6 miles on it when I picked it up and on the way home the brake pedal was pulsating. I drove 600 miles hoping to break in the pedal but it got worse. Hyundai had to turn the rotors and refused to replace them with new ones. This car is a piece of junk and I'll never let a Hyundai shop touch it again unless it's a warranty repair."
