Engine replaced under recall. “New” engine has low pressure after install. Car does not accelerate as needed. Check engine light and oil light come on. Took back to dealership several times, told an engine flush would fix problem, problem not fixed, told a tune up would fix problem, problem not fixed. Engine still has lower pressure. Dealership did testing requested by Hyundai corporation. Engine light still illuminated, engine still has low pressure, car still does not accelerate as needed. Have talked to several other people with Hyundai’s that have had engine replaced under recall, having same problems.

I JUST PURCHASED MY 2011 HYUNDAI SONATA FROM A PREVIOUS OWNER. SEVERAL RECALLS REPAIRS HAVE BEEN PERFORMED ON THE VEHICLE PRIOR TO MY PURCHASE. THE ISSUE I'M REPORTING - THE DRIVER'S SIDE SEAT IS STUCK IN THE RECLINE POSITION AND THE SEAT WILL NOT GO BACK UP OR MOVE FORWARD TO INCLINE POSITION. I'M DRIVING WITH NO BACK SUPPORT. THE OTHER DRIVER'S POWER SEAT CONTROLS WORK EXCEPT FOR THE ONE THAT RAISES THE BACK OF THE SEAT. IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH, THE SEAT COULD INADVERTENTLY RECLINE AND INCREASE THE RISK OF A VERY SERIOUS INJURY OR FATALITY. MORE POWER SEAT FAILURES HAVE BEEN REPORTED ON THE HYUNDAI FORUM: HTTPS://WWW.HYUNDAI-FORUMS.COM/THREADS/POWER-SEAT-FAILURE-HELP-NEEDED.107030/

MY CAR LOSS POWER WHILE DRIVING FROM WORK AND SHUT OFF ALONG WITH A SLIGHT TICK. IT WOULDN'T START AND RESULTED IN ME GETTING IT TOWED.

I WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH ON A HIGHWAY AND IT STARTED RAINING. I TURNED MY HEADLIGHTS ON AND THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON. I ALSO LOST ACCELERATION POWER UNTIL I COMPLETELY LET OFF THE GAS PEDAL. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES OVER THE LAST MONTH. I ALSO AM UNABLE TO SET THE CRUISE CONTROL IF MY HEADLIGHTS ARE ON.
