2017 HYUNDAI SONATA Complaints

When making minor steering corrections, driver inputs require more than normal force, until the resistance suddenly gives way. The car then responds to drivers input, causing a need for the driver to correct in the opposite direction. The result is a car which seens to weave from side to side as the driver attempts to stay within lane. The side to side movements become particularly dangerous when traveling aside large vehicles. Multiple internet conversations concerning this steering problem can be found. The service manager at the local dealer states he is aware of the problem but will do nothing about it as no recall has been issued.

Check engine light start flickering while I was driving down the road my vehicle went into limp mode and I lost all power. I checked my oil for metallic shavings or a creamy look but everything was cleaned. I got a code 1326 for knock sensor. I replaced and changed the oil and oil filter and reset the code. I started it up and it sounded good then I drove to see if it was fixed got on the highway and my engine went back into limp mode I lost power again. And my engine started flickering I stop the car and tried to turn it back on but my engine locked up. Could I possibly get help with getting a new engine. The car only has 127,052 miles. I heard there was a bunch of problems with rod bearing wear and etc with 2017 Hyundai sonata se

Engine oil light or any warning lights and symbols never came on after Engine had burned out all the oil. Had oil changed and new oil filter installed and in less then a week it burned out 3 quarts, again with no low oil warning at all. Motor stalled at intersection and had to cool down, oil was again added and lower Engine knocking was present. Meanwhile had a mechanic inspect it and diagnostic done and lower bearings are knocking. Vehicle has had this issue for over 4 years and never mentioned to us until now after 100,000 miles. 2019 is when this oil burning issue began. Hyundai dealer serviced this several times and never mentioned the reason for the knocking other then it was low on oil. After breaking down in a busy intersection had to be pushed off road and waited for Engine to cool down to add oil and knocking continued.

The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the check hybrid system warning light illuminated. In addition, the vehicle lost motive power. The vehicle was serviced by a dealer two months ago and repaired under Technical Service Bulletin: T6G. The contact stated that the failure reoccurred after driving the vehicle for 500 miles. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed with a failed engine and the contact was informed that the engine needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 138,300. The contact called the case manager at Hyundai and he refused to give any confirmation about the problem with the engine.

Had cruise control set for 75mph, and while traveling up hill, the car downshifted to maintain speed. After 10-15 seconds I noticed power loss and the check engine began to flash. Disengaged cruise control and pulled off onto the shoulder once I found a safe place to do so. As I was slowing down, there was a very noticeable misfire from the engine and was trying to stall out while still in motion. There was no knocking sound, nor was the car overheating. Once I was fully stopped, the car died and would not start back. Had the car towed back to my house. Replaced spark plugs because cylinders 2 and 4 were not firing properly. Also rotated coil packs around to see if they were failing. Cleared check engine codes but they immediately came back to misfires on cylinders 2 and 4. Did compression tests and found that cylinder 2 had 0psi and cylinder 4 had 20psi. Car was not low on oil and no other warning lamps were on.

My 2017 Hyundai Sonata is burning oil. Originally when we realized that our engine was burning oil we were told that we need to get an oil change, which we did. Come back 1000 miles later, we came back and the engine was missing a lot of oil. They topped it off. We came back another 1000 miles later and we again had receding oil levels. They told us they are cleaning the engine. 500 miles later, on Sunday [XXX] our spark plugs blew. We got our car towed to the dealer, Spitzer Hyundai of Cleveland. Spitzer Hyundai is procrastinating and making stories. Each time we do what they ask, they want additional tests done to confirm the engine is burning oil. One of the employees told us at the beginning: we know and you know the engine is burning oil, but Hyundai needs to confirm that. Now the dealership is asking us to drive another 1000 miles again. The problem is that the spark plugs are shot and need to be replaced. They only need to be replaced because of the faulty engine. They want us to pay $700 to replace the spark plugs when it might fail again in another 100 miles. Meanwhile we have car rental expenses plus other expenses and a headache dealing with the company Hyundai and the dealership Spitzer Hyundai. every time I drove those 1000 miles i was always worried that the engine would stop working if the oil would burn out. My local mechanic is the one who diagnosed my engine to burn oil, and he said not to replace the spark plugs, because it will fail once again. Even if they approve the engine replacement they will probably want to charge us $700 for the cost to "take apart the engine and send pictures to Hyundai". The engine light has been constantly going on about every 1000 miles or so. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

My 2017 Hyundai sonata burns oil rapidly, almost 400 miles it burns 5 quarts of oil. The engine stalls randomly and beings to mis fire. The car has stalled on me in the middle of the road with no check engine light or indicator that a problem is present. I have had to change spark plugs and coils far to offen and every time I have to pay the mechanical shop. There is a recall on the hybrids sonatas but not the gas ones. The dealer acknowledges that the car burns oil allot. Which I’ve been told it can lead to engine failure I have done everything possible. And I’ve spoke to other owners and I’m not alone. The vehicle hasn’t been inspected by others such as police. No warning lights appear

Power steering failed as I was pulling in parking lot, with my son , have not brought to dealer yet costly to fix been told by mechainic,no warning whatsoever ever on gauges, luckily it didn’t happen on highway that I had just gotten off of 65mph could have been worse

I purchased this vehicle with 79k miles less than a year ago and it has barely 90k. My engine light is on, vehicle stalls, and the error codes are revealing misfire involving cylinder #3. I go to the dealership for maintenance, and have kept up with it. Replaced the ignition coil and spark plug for this cylinder and nothing is working. It stalled in the middle of the intersection and I nearly was hit by another vehicle. Supposedly, there are no recalls but I also had issues with the vehicle burning through oil after 1,000 miles of getting oil changed. The dealership claimed nothing was wrong with car but they were so desperate for me to buy this car. Shame on Hyundai.

While driving on the highway the car began shaking, the check engine light came on. After guiding the car to the shoulder, we turned the car off and back on after a few minutes. The engine was completely stalled when we turned the car back on - multiple dash lights were on (check engine, oil, and battery were the ones I remember); the car would not accelerate, when we attempted to drive slowly the car, in drive, started rolling backwards/downhill and would not accelerate at all; and the engine was still idling shakily. Car was towed to a mechanic who diagnosed an engine misfire requiring engine replacement. Hyundai dealership denied this as a warrantable issue under Extended Warranty TXXI/TXXC/Service Campaign T3G. This vehicle is a well-kept 2017 with only 90k miles and should not have had this type of engine failure except as a result of poor manufacture.
