2012 HYUNDAI SONATA Complaints

AT NIGHT WHILE DRIVING IF YOU USE THE TURN SIGNALS ALL LIGHTS GO OFF INSIDE AND OUT. WE HAVE TAKEN THE CAR TO THE DEALER AND THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE ISSUE WHILE THERE. THIS IS A HAZARD AND CAN CAUSE A COLLISON AT NIGHT. THIS SHOULD BE ADDRESSED BY HYUNDAI. THERE SEEMS TO BE TOO MANY ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS WITH THESE CARS AND IT SHULD BE LOOKED INTO.

WE ARE REPLACING BRAKE LIGHTS EVERY OTHER MONTH. THE MODULE THAT HOLDS THE BULB IS MELTING. SEEMS LIKE THIS WOULD BE A FIRE HAZARD AND SHOULD BE RECALLED.

RECALLED ENGINE REPLACED IN LATE 2017 CAR CONTINUES TO HAVE PROBLEMS EVERY SINCE. HAD TO REPLACED WATER PUMP , THERMOSTAT AND 3 RADIATORS AND WAS TOLD THAT THE HEAD GASKET IS BLOWN. HYUNDAI DEALER AND SERVICE REFUSE TO CORRECT THE ISSUE AND I HAVE SPEND OVER $2,000 IN REPAIRS.

LOUD CLUNKING NOISE FROM STEERING COLUMN WHEN TURNING RIGHT OR LEFT. ALSO VERY AUDIBLE NOISES FROM FRONT END WHEN HITTING BUMPS. ALSO TRAVELS INTO STEERING WHEEL. STEERING FEELS UNSAFE AND LOOSE LIKE WHEEL IS GOING TO FALL OFF.

WHEN I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IN SEPTEMBER OF 2020 I NOTICED EVERY ONCE IN AWHILE WHEN I PUSH ON THE BRAKE THE BRAKE LIGHT WOULD COME ON AND THE PANEL FELT VERY SPONGY. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY FIX THE LIGHT THEY TOLD ME THE BRAKE PEDAL FEEL WAS NORMAL. BUT KIA AND HYUNDAI HAVE A RECALL OUT RIGHT NOW IT DOES NOT COVER MY CAR BUT FROM WHAT I'VE READ OF THE RECALL IT SOUNDS LIKE THAT'S WHAT'S HAPPENING TO MY CAR. THE PEDAL FEELS VERY SPONGY IT ALWAYS FEELS LIKE IT'S GOING DOWN TO THE FLOORBOARD WHEN YOU PRESS THE BRAKE

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 HYUNDAI SONATA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS A CRACK IN THE DASHBOARD NEAR THE PASSENGER'S SIDE AIR BAG HOUSING. VIN TOOL SHOWED NO RECALLS ON THE ISSUE. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER HAD NOT BEEN CONTACTED YET. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 133,573.

STEERING WHEEL NOISE. IN ADDITION, LOUD CLANKING NOISES WHEN TRAVELING OVER BUMPS AND BUMPY ROADS WITH VIBRATIONS COMING TO THE STEERING WHEEL. VERY SIMILAR TO THE DESCRIPTIONS ON THE NHTSA PAGES.

THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON AND MULTIPLE CRACKS IN MY DASH OCCURRED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. CAR WAS SITTING.PARKED IN DRIVEWAY WHEN I STARTED THE CAR THE AIRBAG LIGHT WAS ON AND THERE WAS 3 CRACKS IN THE DASH. THE LIGHT HAD NOT BEEN PREVIOUSLY ON.

I STOPPED AT A LIGHT ON 23 IN CHILLICOTHE OHIO .WHEN THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN TRIED TO ACCELERATE AND NOTHING. ALL THE DASH LIGHT CAME ON AND HAD A ODD SMELL.AND HASN'T STARTED SINCE WILL NOT TURN OVER.. CHECKED THE FUSES STARTER ALTERNATOR AND BATTERY. ALL ARE IN WORKING ORDER. HAD TO HAVE IN TOWED TO MY HOUSE IN SOUTH POINT OHIO.

MY CAR IS RANDOMLY SHUTTING ITSELF OFF. IT HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES NOW. AS I AM DRIVING THE WHOLE CAR JUST DIES. I HAVE TO PHYSICALLY TURN THE CAR OFF AND THEN IT CRANKS BACK UP.
