VISIBILITY/WIPER
I WAS MOVING THE SUN VISOR AND HEARD A POPPING SOUND AND THIS LITTLE PIECE OF PLASTIC FELL IN MY LAP. NOW THE SUN VISOR JUST WANTS TO HANG. I CAN'T GET IT TO STAY UP OF STAY IN ONE PLACE. I END UP HOLDING IT UP WITH ONE HAND A GOOD DEAL OF THE TIME. I DON'T THINK THIS IS EXACTLY SAFE. AS MANY OTHERS THAT HAVE THIS FAULT, THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL ON IT. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
1) WITHIN THREE MONTHS OF BUYING THIS CAR, STARTING ISSUES BEGAN. GENERALLY ON THE SECOND START OF THE DAY. FIRST START OF THE DAY USUALLY INVOLVES HIGH ENGINE REVVING SOMEWHERE IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD OF 2,500 RPM. AFTER A SHORT TRIP, IGNITION WILL NO CLICK OVER ATTEMPT TO RESTART. USUALLY SECOND OR THIRD TRY RESULT IN A START. DESPITE DEALER REPLACEMENT OF STARTER, FUEL PUMP AND BATTERY, THE PROBLEM CONTINUES PERIODICALLY. 2) REAR BRAKES NEEDED REPLACEMENT AT 24K MILES. WEAR WAS UNEVEN: LEFT BRAKE WAS GRINDING INTO ROTOR AND RIGHT BRAKE WAS ONLY ABOUT 50 PERCENT WORN. HAD DEALERSHIP CHECK FOR POSSIBLE FAULTY CALIPERS, BUT THEY CLAIMED THEY FOUND NO ISSUES AND WOULD NOT COVER UNDER WARRANTY. IN CONTRAST, THE CAR STILL HAS THE ORIGINAL FRONT BRAKES. *TR

WHEELS
THE 18 INCH TIRES ON THE 2012 HYUNDAI SONATA HAVE ZERO TRACTION ON ANY SURFACE THAT IS NOT DRY. A DUSTING OF SNOW MAKES IT IMPOSSIBLE TO DRIVE THIS CAR. TRAVELING AT 5 MPH WHILE TURNING FROM A DEAD STOP INTO THE NEIGHBORHOOD ON A LIGHT COATING OF SNOW CAUSED THE CAR TO SLIDE OUT OF CONTROL AND HIT A LARGE ROCK CAUSING FRONT FENDER/ BUMPER DAMAGE THEN BOUNCED BACK ONTO THE ROAD. THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME THE CAR HAS SLID ON ANYTHING BUT A DRY SURFACE. ALL LAST WINTER, WE HAD TO LEAVE THE CAR IN THE GARAGE IF THERE WAS ANY SNOW ON THE GROUND. WE HAVE NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM WITH ANOTHER VEHICLE. IT IS UNDRIVEABLE IN ANY SNOW. I HAVE COMPLAINED TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAY THEY HAVE HEARD ABOUT COMPLAINTS ON THE 18 INCH TIRES, BUT OFFER NO SOLUTIONS. THESE TIRES ARE A HAZARD AND NEED TO BE REPLACED. I HAVE LOOKED FOR SNOW TIRES OR OTHER SOLUTIONS, BUT THEY ARE NOT MADE FOR 18 INCH WHEELS. *TR

AIR BAGS
DRIVER SIDE AIR BAG FAILED WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS UNDER MANUFACTURER'S WARRANTY THAT WAS 5 YEARS AND 60,000. IT WAS FIXED BY DEALER AND NOW WITHIN A YEAR THE AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN IN NOVEMBER 2012. I CONTACTED HYUNDAI TO COVER IT UNDER WARRANTY AS IT IS RE-OCCURRING PROBLEM. THEY REFUSED TO COVER IT UNDER WARRANTY. I THINK THE BAGS SHOULD NEVER FAIL AT THIS AGE OF THE VEHICLE. PLEASE HELP ME TO GET THIS FIXED WITH NO CHARGE TO ME. THANKS. *TR

STRUCTURE:FRAME AND MEMBERS:UNDERBODY SHIELDS, SUSPENSION
THE RIGHT SIDE SUB-FRAME OF MY 02 HYUNDAI SONATA WE JUST FOUND OUT HAS RUSTED THROUGH AND THE LOWER CONTROL ARM HAS SEPARATED CAUSING THE AXLE TO POP OUT, THIS HAPPENED AS I WAS DRIVING AND ALMOST CAUSED A WRECK...THE CAR IS VERY WELL MAINTAINED AND EVEN THOUGH IT WAS ONCE IN A NORTHERN STATE (THAT'S WHERE I BOUGHT IT..IN S.DAKOTA) I DO NOT THINK THIS UNEVEN RUSTING OF THE SUBFRAME IS NORMAL. I CHECKED AND FOUND THAT THERE WAS ACTUALLY A RECALL OF THIS VEHICLE FOR THE EXACT THIS SAME REASON, I CALLED HYUNDAI AND THE REPRESENTATIVE LIED TO MY EAR THAT IT WAS NOT COVERED BY THAT RECALL AND THAT I SHOULD TAKE TO THE HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP AND PAY FOR THE REPAIR MYSELF. THIS IS UNCONSCIONABLE AND SHOULDN'T BE SO. I WISH I CAN GET SOME HELP. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, STRUCTURE:BODY, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
I WAS DRIVING AT THE FREEWAY SPEED LIMIT, I DID NOT FEEL ANYTHING WHEN IT HAPPENED BUT I KNOW THAT IT HAPPENED ON THE FREEWAY. I PULLED OVER TO GET SOME GAS, LOOKED BACK NEAR THE GAS CAP AND SAW THAT MY DRIVER'S SIDE TAILIGHT ASSEMBLY WAS HANGING BY THE WIRES ONTO MY BUMPER. WHEN IT FELL OUT, IT BOUNCED AND PLACED SEVERAL DINGS AND CHIPS IN THE PLASTIC BUMPER. I NOTICED THAT THE WHEELS(COGS) INSIDE THE TAILIGHT ASSEMBLY WERE COMPLETELY BROKEN OFF. I HAD TO TAKE THE LIGHT OUT AND PLACE IT IN MY TRUNK AND DRIVE THE REST OF THE TWO HUNDRED MILES WITH NO LEFT TAIL LIGHT OR TURN SIGNAL. IF IT HAD FALLEN INTO THE MIDDLE OF THE FREEWAY, I AM SURE THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN MUCH MORE TO WRITE ABOUT AND NONE OF IT GOOD! *TR

SEAT BELTS
I PURCHASED A USED 2008 HYUNDAI SONATA FROM A HYUNDAI DEALER THERE WAS NO INDICATOR LIGHTS ON THE SAID THE CARE HAD BEEN INSPECTED. I HAD THE CAR FOR 3 WEEKS THEN A AIR BAG LIGHT WAS ON. SO I TOOK TO THE DEALER BECAUSE I HAD BOUGHT A 2 YEAR WARRANTY ON THE CAR. THEY TOLD ME THAT I WOULD NEED A NEW SEAT BELT BUCKLE AND THEY WOULD HAVE TO REPROGRAM THE COMPUTER. THEM I WAS TOLD IT WAS NOT COVERED UNDER MY WARRANTY AND I WOULD HAVE TO PAY OVER 400 DOLLARS TO GET IT REPAIRED. HOW IS THIS LEGAL TO SELL A VEHICLE THAT IS KNOWING SELL A VEHICLE WHICH THEY KNOW ABOUT? *TR

SERVICE BRAKES
WE HAD TO REPLACE THE REAR BRAKE PADS IN JUNE 2012 AND NOW IN JANUARY 2013 HAVING AN ISSUE WITH THE REAR DIVER SIDE PAD STICKING. THE FRONT PADS WERE STILL IN GOOD CONDITION. THESE ARE HYUNDAI OEM BRAKES. I HAVE BEEN READING NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ABOUT REAR BRAKE ISSUES ON HYUNDAI VEHICLES. I HAVE ALSO READ THAT THERE IS A CLASS ACTION LAW SUITE IN NEW YORK OVER THIS SAME ISSUE. I WANTED TO MAKE A REPORT AND POSSIBLY FIND OUT IF THERE ARE ANY PLANS FOR AN INVESTIGATION. HYUNDAI DOES NOT SEEM TO HAVE ANY PLANS TO RECALL SINCE THE ISSUE SEEMS TO HAVE EXISTED SINCE 2006. THIS IS FAR FROM NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR AND AT THE COST OF THE PURPOSED (BY HYUNDAI SERVICE) PERIODIC REMOVAL, CLEANING, AND LUBING OF THE BRAKE PADS I CANNOT SEE THIS A NON ISSUE. THAT IS NOT TO MENTION THE DANGER OF POSSIBLE BRAKE FAILURE. *TR

EQUIPMENT:MECHANICAL:ACCESSORY SCISSOR/SCREW/BOTTLE JACK/LIFT
2011 HYUNDAI SONATA HYBRID. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO PROBLEMS WITH VEHICLE TIRES. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED AS HE WAS JACKING UP THE VEHICLE TO REMOVE THE RIGHT TIRE, THE MOMENT THE WHEEL LEFT THE GROUND, THE STEEL IN THE JACK HEAD COLLAPSED CAUSING THE JACK TO PART FROM THE VEHICLE, IN WHICH THE VEHICLE FELL TO THE GROUND. THE CONSUMER BELIEVED THE STEEL WAS OF POOR QUALITY, WHICH COULD NOT SUPPORT THE PARTIAL WEIGHT OF THE VEHICLE.

ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
BEGINNING OF OCTOBER 2012 I KEPT HEARING RATTLING, CLANKING NOISE COMING FROM UNDER THE HOOD. I TOOK THE CAR TO A HYUNDAI DEALER WHERE I LIVE OCTOBER 26, 2012 . THEY CHECKED OUT THE CAR AND TOLD ME BECAUSE THE ENGINE LIGHT DIDN'T COME ON, THEY COULDN'T FIND A CODE TO FIX THE CAR AND TO BRING THE CAR IN WHEN THE ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON. I KEPT DRIVING THE CAR AND HEARING THE SAME NOISE. I TOOK IT TO MEINEKE TO GET AN OIL CHANGE NOVEMBER 14, 2012. DROVE THE CAR APPROXIMATELY 3 WEEKS AND STILL HEARD THE NOISE. I TOOK IT TO ANOTHER HYUNDAI DEALER . THEY SAID THE CAR DIDN'T HAVE ANY OIL AND MEINKE FORGOT TO PUT THE DRAIN PLUG BACK IN, THEREFORE IT MESSED UP THE ENGINE, AND THAT'S WHY I HEARD THE NOISE. I KEPT TELLING THEM, I HEARD THE NOISE BEFORE THE OIL CHANGE. I TOOK IT BACK TO MEINKE AND SHOWED THEM THE PAPER HYUNDAI GAVE ME, THEY GAVE ME MY MONEY BACK AND APOLOGIZED. STILL HEARING THE NOISE, I TOOK IT BACK TO THE FIRST HYUNDAI DEALER AND THEY SAID IT WAS ENGINE PROBLEMS AND I HAD TO PAY THE DIAGNOSTIC FEE BECAUSE MY WARRANTY WAS VOIDED DUE TO MEINEKE. I REFUSED TO PAY THE FEE BECAUSE MY CAR IS UNDER WARRANTY. THEY WOULDN'T GIVE ME MY CAR BACK UNTIL I PAID, WE ARGUED BACK AND FORTH AND I CALLED THE POLICE AND THEY GAVE ME MY CAR BACK, BUT TOLD ME NOT TO COME BACK ON THEIR PROPERTY. I THEN TOOK THE CAR TO WHERE I PURCHASED IT AND SAME THING. THEY SAID TO TRY A GAS ADDITIVE 3 TIMES, IF THAT DOESN'T WORK, GET AN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST IN MY AREA WHERE I LIVE. I NEED MY CAR FIXED AND NO ONE WILL FIX IT. HYUNDAI BLAMES MEINEKE AND MEINEKE BLAMES HYUNDAI. THEY'RE SAYING BECAUSE OF NO ENGINE LIGHT ON, THEY CAN'T SEE THE PROBLEMS, BUT ONE DEALER SAID IT WAS THE ENGINE ANOTHER SAYING GAS PROBLEMS. BOTTOM LINE, IF THE FIRST HYUNDAI DEALER HAD KEPT MY CAR, I WOULDN'T BE GOING THROUGH THIS. HOW CAN I RESOLVE THIS? *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
DRIVING FROM BAKERSFIELD, CA TO AUBURN, CA ON 12-20-12. FILLED WITH FUEL ABOUT 15 MILES BEFORE AUBURN. PARKED IN AUBURN, CAR WOULD NOT START ABOUT 3 HRS LATER.

HAD MECHANIC COME ON 1-16-13 TO CHECK FUEL PUMP. STARTED TO REPLACE THE ELECTRIC FUEL PUMP, FOUND THAT THE POWER CONNECTOR FROM THE PUMP TO THE CONNECTOR AT THE TOP OF THE FUEL TANK HAD BURNT, CORRODED. DISCOLORED CONNECTIONS. THIS IS INSIDE THE FUEL TANK! HAVE HAD TO ORDER A NEW PUMP ASSEMBLY FROM HYUNDAI. DON'T IF IT IS AN UPGRADED PART. *TR

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
ON 6 OCCASIONS THE TPMS WARNING LIGHT HAS COME ON, ALL AT SPEEDS 75-80, ALL AFTER DRIVING ABOUT 2 HOURS. (TRIPS TO LA, TUCSON). THE TIRE PRESSURE CHECKED OUT OK WHEN I STOPPED EACH TIME. I BROUGHT THE CAR TO THE DEALER 4 TIMES, BUT EACH TIME THEY COULD NOT FIND A TROUBLE CODE. THE HYUNDAI BLUELINK DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM HAS INDICATED A TROUBLE CONDITION SINCE THE BEGINNING, AND STILL INDICATES A TROUBLE CONDITION EVEN THOUGH THE DEALER HAS INDICATED IT HAS BEEN RESET ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION, AND WAS RESET AGAIN BY HYUNDAI USA ON 1/2/13. THE TPMS DOES NOT COME ON WHEN THE TIRES ARE COLD, AS ONE WOULD EXPECT. THE DEALER INDICATED THEY CAN NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM, AND THE CAR SHOWS NO TROUBLE CODES. I HAVE CONTACTED HYUNDAI USA AND THEY INDICATE THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO. BECAUSE OF ALL THE FALSE WARNINGS, I AM CONCERNED THAT I WILL NOT KNOW IF THERE IS A TRUE PROBLEM WITH MY TIRES OR JUST ANOTHER FALSE WARNING FROM THE TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM.

VISIBILITY, STRUCTURE
THIS COMPLAINT ON A BRAND NEW 2013 SONATA, IS ABOUT SEVERE INTERIOR WINDSHIELD DISTRACTION CAUSED BY THE REFLECTION OF THE INTERIOR DASH ONTO THE FRONT, DRIVERS WINDSHIELD. THE REFLECTION OF THE INTERIOR ON THE WINDSHIELD IS SO SEVERE THAT IT IMPAIRS SAFE DRIVING. DURING DAYLIGHT DRIVING, EVERYTHING THAT IS LOCATED ON THE TOP OF THE INTERIOR DASHBOARD VIVIDLY REFLECTS ONTO THE INTERIOR WINDSHIELD. DESIGN EFFECTS, SPEAKERS, STEERING WHEEL AND EVEN THE DRIVERS HANDS WITH FINGERNAILS ON THE WINDSHIELD. EVENING DRIVING THE REFLECTION IS ALSO EXTREMELY IMPAIRED VIA DISTRACTION, FOR EXAMPLE THE ODOMETER REFLECTS ABOVE THE INTERIOR DRIVERS WINDOW, ABOVE THE MIRROR AND ITS IN FULL COLOR! ON A TEST DRIVE, AFTER MY COMPLAINT, THE DEALER ACKNOWLEDGED THIS PROBLEM AND SUGGESTED THAT IT MAYBE FROM CLEANING FLUID USED DURING THE DETAILING PROCESS AND HAD THE CAR RE-DETAILED, HOWEVER THIS DID NOT RECTIFY THE PROBLEM. I HAVE DIRECTLY NOTIFIED HYUNDAI BUT HAVE NOT HEARD BACK FROM THEM. I BELIEVE THIS A SAFETY HAZARD AND THERE IS A DANGEROUS FLAW IN THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE GLASS IN THIS CAR.

STEERING
THE DAY AFTER I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE I DROVE IT ON THE FREEWAY AT 65 MPH FOR A DISTANCE OF 40 MILES. I NOTICED THAT IN ORDER TO KEEP THE VEHICLE WITHIN THE FREEWAY LANES I WAS CONSTANTLY ADJUSTING THE STEERING. IF I DID NOT ADJUST THE STEERING CONSTANTLY I WOULD DRIFT INTO ANOTHER LANE. AFTER ABOUT 40 MINUTES OF DRIVING I WAS FRUSTRATED AND EXHAUSTED FROM THE EFFORTS TO KEEP THE VEHICLE IN THE SAME LANE. I TOOK IT INTO THE DEALER AND THE SERVICE MANAGER ACKNOWLEDGED THAT THERE WAS DEFINITELY A PROBLEM WITH THE STEERING BUT THERE WAS NOTHING THAT HE COULD DO TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. HE INDICATED THAT THIS WAS AN ELECTRIC STEERING SYSTEM AND THAT THIS WAS NORMAL FOR THIS CAR. I CALLED THE CORPORATE OFFICES OF THE HYUNDAI CORPORATION AND SPOKE WITH ONE OF THEIR CONSULTANTS AND THEY ALSO CONFIRMED THAT THIS WAS NORMAL FOR THIS VEHICLE AND THAT THEY HAD NO PLANS TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. *TR

STEERING
WHILE DRIVING STRAIGHT DOWN THE INTERSTATE WHICH IS FLAT AND STRAIGHT MY 2013 HYUNDAI SONATA WANDERS LEFT AND RIGHT. WHEN SMALL CORRECTIONS ARE MADE, I CAN FEEL THE STEERING STICKING. WHEN IT RELEASES WITH A LITTLE PRESSURE, IT CAUSES A JERKY MOVEMENT IN THE DIRECTION OF THE CORRECTION. IT IS A CONSTANT BATTLE TO KEEP THE VEHICLE DRIVING IN A STRAIGHT LINE DOWN THE ROAD. *TR
