2011 HYUNDAI SONATA Complaints

MY TRANSMISSION APPEARS TO BE SLIPPING. REALLY SCARED TO DRIVE IT FAR BUT CAN'T AFFORD TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION.

AIR BAG LIGHT WENT ON AND WON'T GO OFF.AFTER A GAS STATION FILL UP THE LIGHT WENT ON WHEN WE STARTED TO MOVE

STEERING MAKES A LOUD "CLUNK" WHEN TURNING RIGHT OR LEFT. IT IS NOTICEABLE WHEN STATIONARY, BUT QUITE LOUD WHEN MOVING. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THE CAR.

MY CAR JUST DIED ON ME I BELIEVE IT THE MOTOR JUST DIED ON ME I MAY HAVW 140,000 MILES NO INDICATION. THE CAR STOP ON ME WHILE I WAS ON FREEWAY I HAD TO CRUISE TO THE NEXT EXIT AND PARK IN 09 A MOTEL PARKING LOT

CONNECTION BETWEEN THE SHIFT CABLE AND SHIFT LEVER,IT SAYS THERE IS A RECALL ON IT, BUT WHEN I CALL THE DEALERSHIP THEY TELL ME THERE IS NOT ONE WITH MY VIN NUMBER. WHEN I PUT MY CAR IN REVERSE OR DRIVE IT WILL NOT DISPLAY ON MY DASH IF IT IS IN REVERSE DRIVE OR PARK AND MY CAR HAS TROUBLE MOVING WHEN IT DOES THAT.

I AM CONSISTENTLY HAVING TO REPLACE MY TAIL AND BRAKE LIGHTS ON BOTH THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE EVERY 2-6 MONTHS. I JUST REPLACED THE BULBS IN JULY AND NOW IN SEPTEMBER, THEY'RE BAD AGAIN. BUT NOW EVEN WITH NEW BULBS IN, THE TAIL LIGHTS DO NOT WORK BUT THE BRAKE LIGHTS DO. I AM ALSO HAVING AN ISSUE WITH THE INTERIOR DOME LIGHT NOT TURNING OFF WHILE SET ON THE "DOOR" SETTING WITH ALL DOORS CLOSED. FOR THIS, I HAVE CHECKED THE DOOR JAMB SWITCH AND THE INSIDE OF THE DOME LIGHT SWITCH AND THERE ARE NO OBVIOUS CAUSES FOR THIS ISSUE. I'M NOT SURE IF THESE LIGHT PROBLEMS ARE CONNECTED OR NOT, BUT THE DOME LIGHT WORKED PERFECTLY FINE UNTIL I REPLACED MY TAIL/BRAKE LIGHT BULBS YESTERDAY AND DISCOVERED THAT THEY AREN'T WORKING AT ALL.

MY DASHBOARD HAS HAIRLINE CRACKS IN THE AREAS BY THE AIR BAGS. I FEEL THAT THIS COULD BE A COMPROMISE ISSUE WITH THE AIR BAGS. WE HAD THE SAME ISSUE WITH OUR OTHER 2011 SONATA. WE REPLACED IT BECAUSE WE SOLD IT. PLEASE ADVISE ME IF I HAVE A SAFETY ISSUE THANK YOU [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

THIS IS MY DAUGHTER'S CAR. ON THE EVENING OF 9/6/2020, THEY WERE DRIVING HOME WHEN THE CAR JUST STALLED OUT AND WOULD NOT RESTART. THIS WAS ON A CITY STREET A COUPLE OF BLOCKS FROM THEIR HOME. THEY PUSHED IT TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND NOTICED SMOKE COMING FROM UNDER THE HOOD. WITHIN 5 MINUTES, THE CAR WAS ABLAZE AND POLICE AND FIRE WERE CALLED TO THE SCENE. WE CONTACTED HYUNDAI THE NEXT DAY AND THEY HAVE OPENED A CASE NUMBER 17293089 AND WE ARE WAITING TO HEAR FROM THERM.

I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE ENGINE STARTED KNOCKING
