2017 HYUNDAI SONATA Complaints

My Hyundai consumes oil and I have to put oil in it every two weeks! Also my ignition coils has had to be changed 4 times. Also check engine light just came on code saying catalytic converter or oxygen sensor changed oxygen sensor a couple months ago. I purchased it brand new and as soon as I got over 100,000 miles nothing has been going good since then please help also my paint on the top of the car is starting to peel. Will never buy a Hyundai again.

I am writing to request a Goodwill replacement. My car is burning oil faster than I can put it in. The engine heats up so bad that I feel it could catch fire at any time. I loose acceleration because of this, its an extreme safety hazard for myself and other motorists on the road. I am just now finding out about the issues Hyundai sonatas are having with this said problem. I would like it fixed asap.

My 2017 Hyundai Sonata has a major oil consumption problem. The car does not leak oil. It burns oil average 3000 miles. I have to add 5 to 6 quarts of oil every time I bring it to the shop and ask about it they tell me Hyundai has a problem with one of their engines, I see the recall on other models, but not my model. it’s been ongoing for about a year.

Engine started making a noise and then the car died and would not start. We were on the highway service road when the car died in the middle of the road. We took the car to the dealership and they confirmed the vehicle engine has seized up. This is covered under warranty. The manufacturer denied the claim because of a sensor recall in August 9, 2018. We purchased this car used on July 11, 2018 and never received the recall notification for this sensor. The manufacturer is refusing to repair the engine that is under warranty.

The airbag light has been on for years. Also, the controllers on the steering wheel stopped working, first left side, 6 months later followed by right side. I’ve been told it’s due to a faulty ring inside or under the steering wheel. Worried to drive with faulty airbag.

1.Sunroof disengaged from car. yes 2. Glass falling from car. Glass could have landed inside car, killing or injuring driver. Glass could have landed on any car behind the sonata killing or injuring occupants in that car. 3. Unknown 4. No 5. No

Premature rod bearing failure at 126,750. Dealer said there was extended warranty for this failure. Turns out that Hyundai denied this because they say Recall 953 was not done. This does not reflect what I show, I show this a Service Program and probably a notice does not get sent out. I have gotten an estimate for $7848.50 for engine replace. I do not agree with this decision since it is a know problem with multiple class action lawsuits.

All documents are attached as it is many separate incidents that ended knock from motor and minutes later, a piston shooting through the engine block which is what made the car inoperable

Steering wheel warning light comes on traction control light comes on. Steering becomes difficult

I am writing to request your assistance in enforcing the terms of the class action settlement and extended warranty coverage for my 2017 Hyundai Sonata (VIN: [XXX] ). Despite clear evidence of a defective Theta II engine, Hyundai Corporate has refused to authorize a full engine replacement unless the engine “blows” completely. This directly conflicts with the express terms of the “In re: Hyundai and Kia Engine Litigation” settlement, which requires Hyundai to cover any engine exhibiting failure-mode symptoms. Below, I have summarized all relevant facts, diagnoses, and correspondence. I purchased this Sonata used from Oakes Kia (Kansas City, MO) in May 2023. At the time of purchase, the vehicle had 77,000 miles. To my knowledge, I am the third owner of this vehicle. Since I bought this car, I have followed the manufacturer’s recommended maintenance schedule: All routine oil changes (every 5,000 miles, or sooner) at Oakes Kia, plus one oil change at Northtowne Hyundai in April 2025. The engine currently has approximately 98,650 miles. I have driven it about 1,000 miles since December 2024 to avoid further damage and due to the danger, it puts me and others in on the road. Since December the vehicle has had persistent shaking, hesitation on acceleration, strong odor, and illuminated Check Engine Light. Car condition has worsened since last oil change and even after coil packs and spark plugs were replaced, there was no improvement. The last oil change was done at Oakes Kia along with a tire rotation and multi-point inspection. They Installed UM018 CH074: Mobil SP 5W30 SN, 21513 23001: Gasket-oil plug and 26300 35505: Filter assy-engine O Service Advisor, Fernando Perez said they did not identify root cause of the shaking, hesitation and strong odor; they instructed me to return to the mechanic who had replaced spark plugs/coil packs, possibly I got a bad spark plug or coil pack. I did this, it was not the problem. I have files to share but they are too big! INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATIO
