2013 HYUNDAI SONATA Complaints

THE POWER STEERING WANDERS WHENEVER TRYING TO DRIVE IN A STRAIGHT LINE. IT ALSO MAKES A CLUNKING NOISE WHEN TURNING THE WHEEL IN A STATIC POSITION WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING.

I WAS INVOLVED IN A MAJOR ACCIDENT ON 11-13-18 INVOLVING SOMEONE REAR ENDING ME FROM BEHIND. I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE STREET WITH TRAFFIC WHEN I WAS HIT , I ENDED UP HITTING THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME AND SO ON. IT ENDED UP BEING A 4 CAR COLLISION AND MY AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY ! CAUSING MY FACE TO SMASH AGAINST THE STEERING WHEEL . NOW I HAVE PERSONAL INJURIES INVOLVING MY BACK AND NECK. I DO NOT THINK I WASN'T INFORMED IN A TIMELY MATTER OF THE RECALL CAMP 174. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN MUCH WORSE. PLEASE ADVISE

06NOV2018 FULL CAR ELECTRICAL FAILURE. CAR DIED, AND WOULD NOT RESTART. 151000, HYUNDAI, SAYS PART IS ON BACK ORDER TILL MIDDLE OF DEC 2018. I HAVE TO PAY ALL COSTS.

09NOV2017 ENGINE TOTAL FAILURE AT APPROX 135000 MILE, MAIN CRANK BEARING BAD. - I HAD TO PAY TO HAVE THE ENGINE REPLACED. HYUNDAI WOULD NOT PAY ANYTHING.

STARTED MAKING A CLUNKY NOISE WHEN TURNING BOTH WAYS. THEN THE STEERING WHEEL GOT SUPER HARD TO TURN. AT THIS POINT I CAN NOT TURN THE STEERING WHEEL AT ALL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HYUNDAI SONATA. OCCASIONALLY, WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, THE CONTACT HEARD A KNOCKING NOISE COMING FROM THE ENGINE. THE NOISE BECAME MORE FREQUENT AND, WHILE DRIVING AT 45 MPH, THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED AND THEN STALLED. THE CONTACT WAS UNABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE AFTER THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE CONTACT'S HOME. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURES WERE SIMILAR TO THOSE ASSOCIATED WITH NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V226000 (ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING). THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT CONTACTED.

TRANSMISSION FLUID SENSOR A CIRCUIT RANGE/PERFORMANCE CAR IS JERKING WHEN DRIVING

VEHICLES STEERING COLUMN IS RATTLING AND SHAKING VERY BAD STEERING IS VERY LOOSE... ALSO BRAKE LIGHT BULBS KEEP BURNING OUT FOR NO REASON EVERY COUPLE OF WEEKS AND HAVING TO BE REPLACED

THE BRAKE LIGHTS AND HEAD LIGHTS KEEP OVER HEATING. CAUSING THE LIGHT TO CONTINUOUSLY BURN OUT. IT HAS CAUSED DAMAGED TO THE LIGHT HOUSING TO WHERE THE LIGHT BULB DOESN'T FIT INTO THE HOUSING IT HAS ALSO CAUSED THE WIRE TO BE BURNT LEADING TO THE SOCKETS. I AM AFRAID MY CAR IS GOING TO CATCH FIRE WITH ME AND MY KIDS IN IT. I HAVE BEEN PULLED OVER FOR THE BRAKE LIGHT BEING OUT THEN HAD TO EXPLAIN THAT ITS NOT OUT THE BULB JUST WONT GO BACK IN THE HOUSING.

I HAVE A 2013 SONATA AND THE BRAKE LIGHT GOT SO HOT IT MELTED THE CASING. WHEN I TRIED TO REPLACE IT THE CASING HAD SWOLLEN SO LARGE THAT THE BULB FIT BACK INTO THE CASING. THE BULB ALSO MELTED TO EACH SOCKET ON EACH SIDE OF THE CAR. I HAVE REPLACED THESE BULBS ON THE RIGHT SIDE MORE THAN 15 TIMES AND NOW ON THE LEFT SIDE ITS SO SWOLLEN THAT I CANNOT PUT THE BULB BACK IN. THIS IS A HAZZARD>
