2014 HYUNDAI SONATA Complaints

I was driving in a school zone going 10 MPH and a warning flashed saying "Check Brake" then "Hybrid System Warning! Safely stop and do not drive" The brakes then locked up and the steering wheel became very stiff. I was able to pull over and turn the car off. I turned it back on and the warning was gone. However, the issue continued a couple weeks later and would not reset to a drivable condition, this prompted my husband to take the vehicle to Sterling Acura of Austin to be maintenance. The Power Brake Booster was replaced but the warning still appears sporadically, just long enough to read and then turns off.

Hybrid System Warning! This is the second time I have received this issue. It seems like a big issue within these types of cars. The first time I took it to Hyundai and they said replace the transmission. I took it to my transmission guy and he just changed the alternator and it worked. Now today, I am getting the same error message, but all the answers online are completely different things. I called Hyundai again and they once again suggested to replace transmission. They are trying to rip people off. This car is a lemon.

The contact owns a 2014 Hyundai Sonata. The contact stated while driving approximately 40 MPH, the vehicle independently and abruptly stopped. There were no warning lights illuminated. The contact pulled the vehicle over safely and then drove home. The vehicle was taken to a local mechanic. The first mechanic diagnosed the failure as an unknown shutdown. The failure reoccurred and the vehicle was towed back to the same local mechanic; however, it was sent to another dealer due to engine failure. The manufacturer was notified. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 124,000.

Engine failure causing loss of vehicle mobility, engine stoped no alerts. Vehicle became hard this steer and stop due to loss of these power assisted controls.

The contact owns a 2014 Hyundai Sonata. The contact stated while driving approximately 35 MPH, the steering column started to shake and was making popping noises. The contact safely parked the vehicle. The contact stated no warning light was illuminated. The contact took the vehicle to the local dealer, where it was diagnosed that the flexible steering coupler needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer had not been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 142,000.

Headlights turn off when applying it turn signal. Low beam headlights are not shining far enough down the road to be able to see.

Although my VIN is not a part of the recall I have undergone the same issue as those recalled. Engine light blinking, car in limp mode, unable to drive. My local mechanic scanned the codes to find glow plug stuck on so he reprogrammed car but it went back in limp mode. Then towed car to Hyundai who reprogrammed my car and I picked it up. However I did not make it home. Car towed back to hyundai. They then had to replace the sensor-assy knock. Car seems fine now and engine light no longer blinking for now.

While driving home, going about 40-45 mph my dashboard lit up with a check engine, battery, steering and oil lights. Within a couple miles (2 maybe 3) I lost all power. All this happened within minutes. I tried to restart after sitting for 10 minutes, and the engine would not (even try to) turn over. Ended up using jumper cables to start get car started when the engine started knocking--horribly. *Likely not available for inspection unless said inspection happens soon.* My safety was extremely compromised as it all happened within minutes of any dashboard indicators that there was a concern at 6pm. I was in the midst of driving on a semi-busy road during rush hour. I barely made it up the hill where I had just enough room to pull off into a *slightly* wider area of the road--this road had no gutters/pull-offs. The car has not been inspected as of yet. It will be going to the dealer by COB today (2/25/22). I was informed it would take at least a few days for them to go over the car. It has not been inspected by any police or insurance representatives as of this time.

Brake light illuminated & brake pedal travelled farther down affecting stopping of vehicle. ABS hydraulic control unit is leaking brake fluid. Repair shop confirmed leak.

Rear RH taillamp constantly out and noticeable on MANY Hyundais!! Replaced multiple times and burns out within days!! Also loss of oil but not leaking.
