SERVICE BRAKES
ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM IS NON-FUNCTIONAL. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS WHILE IN MOTION ON THE HIGHWAY, I HAVE HAD TO APPLY THE BRAKES QUICKLY, WHICH HAS REPEATEDLY CAUSED THE WHEELS TO LOCK UP AND THE CAR TO SKID. DEALERSHIP CLAIMS THERE IS NOTHING WRONG, AND THAT THE BRAKES ARE ACTING NORMALLY.

ENGINE
FAULTY ENGINE CONTROL MODULE - WHILE DRIVING HOME FROM VACATION, AFTER APPROXIMATELY 9 HOURS ON THE HIGHWAY, OUR CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON IN OUR 2015 SONATA. WE WERE ONLY TWO HOURS AWAY FROM HOME AND THE LIGHT WASN'T FLASHING, SO WE CONTINUED DRIVING. WHILE ON AN ACCELERATION RAMP CHANGING HIGHWAYS, THE CAR SPUTTERED AND SEEMED TO BE LOSING POWER, EVEN WITH THE GAS PEDAL COMPLETELY FLOORED. THANKFULLY, THE ENGINE DIDN'T SHUT OFF AND WE WERE ABLE TO CONTINUE DRIVING, HOWEVER, THE ENGINE SEEMED TO "MIS-FIRE" AND THE CAR WAS HESITATING AND RIDING ROUGH. THE NEXT DAY, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WENT OFF. A FEW DAYS LATER, IT CAME BACK ON, AND WHILE TRYING TO GAIN ENOUGH SPEED TO GET ON THE HIGHWAY, THE ENGINE FELT LIKE IT WAS CUTTING OUT AND BEGAN TO RIDE ROUGH AGAIN. I IMMEDIATELY CALLED HYUNDAI TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT TO HAVE THE CAR LOOKED AT. WHEN I MADE THE APPOINTMENT, THE SCHEDULER INDICATED THERE WAS A RECALL ON MY CAR. I ASKED IF IT HAD ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT BEING ON, AND I WAS TOLD IT DIDN'T. I TOOK THE CAR IN, AND AFTER 2 OR 3 HOURS THEY CALLED AND SAID MY CAR WAS READY AND THEY HAD REPLACED A FAULTY ECM (ENGINE CONTROL MODULE), WHICH HAD CAUSED THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TO COME ON. NO MENTION WAS MADE OF THE RECALL. AFTER READING ALL THE POSTS ON THIS SITE, I AM CONVINCED THE PROBLEMS PEOPLE ARE HAVING WITH THEIR ENGINES DYING IS THE RESULT OF A FAULTY ECM. I HAVE SEARCHED EVERYWHERE ON THE INTERNET ABOUT HYUNDAI RECALLING VEHICLES THAT COULD BE AFFECTED, AND I COULD FIND ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. WE NEVER RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE BY MAIL OR EMAIL EITHER. SYMPTOMS OF A BAD OR FAILING ECM INCLUDE THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMING ON, ENGINE STALLING, MISFIRE OR PERFORMANCE ISSUES. SHAME ON HYUNDAI FOR NOT PROTECTING THEIR CUSTOMERS AGAINST A POTENTIALLY LIFE-THREATENING HAZARD AS THIS.

SERVICE BRAKES
I'VE YEARS OF EXPERIENCE WITH ABS SYSTEMS. MY CURRENT CAR CLAIMS TO HAVE ABS, BUT IF I SLAM ON THE BRAKES, THEY LOCK. THAT IS NOT ABS. I TOOK THE CAR IN TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT AND THE DEALER CLAIMED IT MET THEIR ABS STANDARDS. THE BRAKES DON'T MEET MY ABS STANDARDS. I HAVE HAD TO SLAM ON THE BRAKES ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, SOMETIMES GOING AS SLOWLY AS 20 MPH AND THE BRAKES LOCKED AND THE CAR SKIDDED.

VISIBILITY/WIPER
THIS HYUNDAI SONATA CAME EQUIPPED WITH THE HYUNDAI PANORAMIC SUNROOF. THIS SUNROOF WHEN YOU LOOK AT YOU CAN SEE IS MISALIGNED. WHEN THE SUNROOF IS IN THE OPEN POSITION THE RUBBER MOLDING ON THE DRIVERS SIDE FAILS TO STAY ATTACHED AND WHEN THE SUNROOF S CLOSED THAT RUBBER MOLDING IS SUCKED INTO THE CAR LEAVING A GAP BETWEEN THE ALIGNING PARTS. I 'V HAD THIS PROBLEM ADDRESSED BY HYUNDAI AND LOCAL AUTO GLASS COMPANIES WITH NO POSSIBLE EXPLANATION. WHEN THE SUNROOF IS CLOSE A RATTLING NOISE IS EMANATING FROM THE SUNROOF WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. THE NOISE IS DISCONCERTING AND HAS CREATED A SAFETY ISSUE AND I KEEP THE SUNROOF AND ROOF COVER CLOSED AT ALL TIMES. I RESEARCHED THIS PROBLEM AND FOUND THAT NOT ONLY THE PROBLEM DESCRIBED BY ME S AN ONGOING ISSUE WITH OTHER HYUNDAI OWNERS. BUT THAT PROBLEM IS SUSPECTED AND ALLEGES THAT THESE PARTICULAR PANORAMIC SUNROOFS SHATTER WITHOUT WARNING. SO MY SAFETY CONCERNS ARE NOW JUSTIFIED. A LAWSUIT HAS BEEN FILED. THE HYUNDAI PANORAMIC SUNROOF LAWSUIT WAS FILED IN THE U.S. DISTRICT COURT FOR THE CENTRAL DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA - BILLY GLENN V. HYUNDAI MOTOR AMERICA ET AL. I AM STILL TRYING TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE WITH THE LOCAL HYUNDAI DEALERS. (I HAVE BEEN TO TWO HYUNDAI SERVICE DEPARTMENTS AND BOTH DEPARTMENTS HAVE NO IDEA AS TO HOW TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE. AND WHEN ASKED IF THEY ARE AWARE OF THE PANORAMIC COMPLAINTS HAVE HAD NO RESOLVING ANSWER.) ANYWAY I AM REACHING A POINT WHERE POSSIBLE LEGAL ACTION WOULD BE THE STEP TOWARD A REMEDY.

STRUCTURE:BODY, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
ON JULY 12,2016 I WAS PULLING INTO A PARKING SPOT AT THE BANK. MY FOOT WAS ON THE BRAKE AS I ENTERED THE SPACE. MY CAR THEN SEEMED TO MAKE A LOUD NOISE LIKE THE ENGINE WAS REVERING UPS IT THEN SHOT FORWARD LIKE A ROCKET. IT FELT SOMEONE HAD SMASHED BEHIND ME! LUCKILY THERE WERE PILLARS IN FRONT OF THE BANK WHICH PREVENTED MY CAR FROM CRASHING IN THE BANK. I HAVE FOUND SEVERAL COMPLAINTS WITH THE 2015 HYUNDAI SONATAS DOING THIS HOWEVER THERE IS NO RECALL. COST OF DAMAGE WAS $9,051. THIS WAS AN EXTREMELY FRIGHTENING EXPERIENCE!

ON THREE DIFFERENT OCCASIONS THE DASH FLASHED "CHECK TPMS" MEANING CHECK AIR IN THE TIRES. ON ALL 3 OCCASIONS THE CAR WOULD NOT GO INTO GEAR.THE NEXT OCCASION THE CHECK TPMS CAME ON SO I PUT AIR IN THE TIRES AND DROVE AROUND THE CORNER TO RESET THE TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR (COMPUTER). UPON COMING AROUND THE CORNER TO PARK THE CAR THE CHECK TPMS WARNING CAME ON AGAIN THE CAR POWERED DOWN AND I COASTED TO PARK. THE NEXT MORNING I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THE CAR CHECKED I WAS TOLD FROM JARED THAT THE TECHNICIAN DID A SOFTWARE UPDATE AND THAT " HE THINKS, MAYBE, MIGHT HAVE FIXED THE PROBLEM. AT THIS POINT I DID NOT PICK UP THE CAR BECAUSE THEY COULD NOT GUARANTEE THE CAR HAD BEEN FIXED AND THAT IT WILL NOT DIE WHILE DRIVING AROUND HYUNDAI SERVICE DEPARTMENT SAID THEY WERE NOT SURE BECAUSE THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM I HAD WITH THE CAR. I LEFT THE CAR THERE CONTACTED HYNDAI CORPORATE WHERE THEY OPENED A CASE #9327831 .. THEY IN TURN HAD A FAST TEAM WORKING ON MY CAR AND THEY ARE NOT SURE IF THE CAR IS FIXED OR NOT BECAUSE THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE SAME PROBLEM. THE HAVE HAD MY CAR FOR A MONTH NOW STILL HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIND OUT WHAT THE PROBLEM IS. I WAS TOLD IT DOES NOT FALL UNDER LEMON LAW UNLESS THE CAR DOES THE SAME THING AGAIN. BUT I DO NOT KNOW IF THE CAR IS FIXED 100% IT ONLY HAS 12,513 MILES ON IT. CAR WOULD NOT GO INTO DRIVE THE GEAR SHIFT WOULD NOT MOVE TO WHERE I COULD DRIVE THE CAR.

WHILE TRAVELING ON I-65 I ACCIDENTALLY ENGAGED THE DRIVERS REAR WINDOW SWITCH AND THE WINDOW ROLLED DOWN ABOUT HALF WAY. ALL OF A SUDDEN A LOUD WHOMP, WHOMP, NOISE STARTED AND THE WHOLE CAR SHOOK AND THE STEERING WHEEL STARTED TO VIBRATE EXCESSIVELY. I REALLY THOUGHT THE CAR WAS ABOUT TO COME APART AT 65 MPH. IT TOOK ONLY A FEW SECONDS TO REALIZE WHAT HAD HAPPENED, UPON ROLLING THE WINDOW UP STABILITY RETURNED INSTANTLY. TO TEST IF WHAT HAD HAPPENED WAS REAL I PURPOSELY LET DOWN THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW DOWN AND THE EXTREMELY LOUD NOISE AND INSTABILITY IMMEDIATELY RETURNED AND JUST AS QUICKLY DISAPPEARED WHEN I LET UP THE REAR WINDOW. THE A/C WAS ON, WHETHER OR NOT THAT EFFECTED THE PROBLEM, I DON'T KNOW. THE WHOLE EPISODE SCARRED ME AND MY WIFE SO BAD WE ARE NOW LOOKING FOR ANOTHER CAR. I AM NOT EXAGGERATING THIS INCIDENT. THE WHOLE REAR END OF THE CAR SEEMED AS IF IT WAS BEING HIT FROM EACH SIDE INDEPENDENTLY CAUSING THE REAR END TO SHIFT ABOUT A FOOT FROM LEFT TO RIGHT . I WILL NOT BE KEEPING THIS CAR.

ENGINE, POWER TRAIN, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
ON MAY 30, 2016 AT AROUND 9 PM I STOPPED MY 2015 HYUNDAI SONATA AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT AND WITHOUT WARNING THE ENGINE DIED. I WAS ALMOST REAR ENDED WHEN THE LIGHT CHANGED TO GREEN. NO WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON UNTIL THE ENGINE DIED. AFTER ABOUT TWO MINUTES I WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE CAR. I TURNED LEFT AT THE INTERSECTION WHERE MY CAR HAD STALLED AND IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION THE ENGINE DIED AGAIN. I THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO DIE. EXITED THE CAR AND WAVED TRAFFIC BY. TWO MORE MINUTES AND THE ENGINE STARTED AGAIN AND I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE THE THREE REMAINING BLOCKS TO MY HOME. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO OURISMAN HYUNDAI WHERE I BOUGHT IT. THEY HAVE HAD IT EVER SINCE. TODAY, JUNE 6, OURISMAN CALLED AND SAID THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM AND I SHOULD RETURN THE LOANER CAR AND PICK UP MY SONATA. I WILL NOT PICK UP A SONATA THAT DIES IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING. I WOULD LIKE TO LIVE. I CALLED HYUNDAI AMERICA AND REPORTED THE ISSUE AND THEY OPEN D A CASE FILE. I HAVE LEFT MESSAGES WITH THE GM AT OURISMAN AND HE HAS NOT RETURNED MY CALLS. OH, I FORGOT TO MENTION THAT WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR (IT WAS A YEAR OLD) I TOLD THE SALESMAN THAT I DID NOT WANT A HERTZ, AVIS OR ANY OTHER RENTAL CAR. HE ASSURED ME IT WAS NOT PURCHASED FROM A CAR RENTAL COMPANY. AFTER OVER 5 HOURS AT THE DEALERSHIP, I WAS TOLD IT HAD BEEN FROM A RENTAL COMPANY. I WAS WORN OUT AND THOUGHT IT STILL HAD FOUR YEARS LEFT ON THE WARRANTY. I FEEL LIKE A FOOL. I HAVE ASKED HYUNDAI AMERICA TO BUY MY CAR BACK.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
DRIVING AT 75MPH ON I-77 NORTHBOUND NEAR CHARLOTTE, (LAKE NORMAN) WHEN SUDDENLY THE ENGINE DIED. TRAFFIC WAS HEAVY BUT THANKFULLY I WAS ABLE TO COAST TO A NARROW SHOULDER. CARS WERE COMING WITHIN 2 FEET OF MY CAR SO MY WIFE AND I EXITED THE VEHICLE AND RAN UP AN EMBANKMENT TO GET OUT OF HARMS WAY. POLICE AND A TOW TRUCK ARRIVED AND TOOK THE CAR TO LAKE NORMAN HYUNDAI WHERE A FAULTY FUEL PUMP WAS DIAGNOSED. THE REPAIR TOOK TWO DAYS SINCE THE PART HAD TO BE ORDERED. THE INCIDENT WAS HARROWING AND COULD HAVE BEEN TRAGIC FOR BOTH OF US. THE CAR WAS A LITTLE OVER ONE YEAR OLD WITH JUST OVER 15,000 MILES. HYUNDAI MOTORS HAS BEEN CONTACTED BUT I GET NOWHERE WITH THE COMPANY. I AM NOW CONCERNED ABOUT THE POSSIBILITY OF THIS RECURRING TO MY VEHICLE OR SOMEONE ELSE.
