2013 HYUNDAI SONATA Complaints

VEHICLE DOES NOT RECOGNIZE EITHER KEY FOB AND WILL NOT START JUST GOES INTO ACCESSORY MODE. WHEN PLACING FOOT ON BRAKE PAD IT IS EXTREMELY HARD. YET EVERY TIME WE LET VEHICLE DRIFT DOWN OUR DRIVEWAY AND GET LEVEL IT STARTS NO PROBLEM. WE ARE WORRIED WHEN OUR DAUGHTER IS DRIVING THE VEHICLE IT WON'T RECOGNIZE THE KEY FOB AND SHUT DOWN. IT HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST 5 TIMES

I'M NOT HAPPY WITH MY HYUNDAI SONATA 2013, MY FIRST RECALL WAS MY SEATBEALTS AND MY CURRENT SECOND RECALL IS ABOUT A MALFUNCTION IN THE ENGINE. I DRIVE EVERYDAY WITH 2 LITTLE KIDS IN THE CAR I DO NOT FEEL SAFE ANYMORE. I DO HEAR A WEIRD SOUND WHEN I PRESS ON THE BRAKES.. I WOULD LIKE TO SEE WHAT ARE MY OPTIONS ARE IF I CAN GET A REPLACEMENT CAR BECAUSE I FIND THIS SO UNFAIR, UNSAFE AND TIME CONSUMING FOR THE SECOND TIME

CAR WAS PURCHASED ON APRIL 17TH 2017 , ON JUNE 6TH 2017 THE ENGINE MADE NOISE AND SEIZED UP ,THE DEALER WANTS ME TO PAY FOR A NEW ENGINE , WHEN THERE IS A MAJOR ENGINE RECALL .

I HAVEN'T EVEN HAD THE CAR FOR A YEAR YET. I CAN HEAR IT WHENEVER I'M DRIVING.
