2017 HYUNDAI SONATA- Saint Johns, FL
I was driving north bound on I-95 north in Georgia when I heard a loud bang and then at same time looked out my driver side mirror when I see the cover of my antenna flying down the road, which was dangerous since it could have it a car behind me, a car could have run it over and gotten a flat time, or a car could have seen it and made it swerve and caused an accident. When I went to look for a replacement Hyundai makes you buy the whole antenna at over $600 and when I went to look online, I found a lot of other Hyundai customers had same problem of their antenna cover just breaking off and, in my search, found cars Hyundai made by them had a recall on same thing in the year before mine was made.

2017 HYUNDAI SONATA- GRANTS Pass, OR
Driving on the highway at speed, the car decelerates to 30 mph and won't go any faster. This is the second time it happened. I took it to the dealership in September 2022, and it sat there for 6 weeks before they looked at it and said there wasn't anything wrong with it, and reset some fault. I took the vehicle back to the dealership on May 12, and there is no estimate of time for when it will be looked at again.

2017 HYUNDAI SONATA HYBRID- Fredericksburg, VA
Had the car at the dealership one month ago for recall repairs. They said it was two quarts of oil low. First time that has been so low. Two days ago, driving home when I start hearing weird intermittent engine noise. Decide to drive to dealership. Almost made it when engine noise became very loud. Pulled over and had it towed to dealership. Engine failure. While waiting for tow, checked oil after it cooled - no oil on dipstick at all. No warning lights on dash. I shut engine off quickly after it was obviously about to fail, noise got louder. Most all maintenance done at dealership. 88k miles. 2017 Hyundai sonata hybrid. Dealership told me they have TWENTY cars with similiar problem on the lot right now

2017 HYUNDAI SONATA- Richmond, KY
The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Sonata. The contact stated that two weeks after purchasing the vehicle, the oil light illuminated the instrument panel. He also stated that a burning oil odor would emit from the engine while driving. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where an oil consumption test was performed upon approval by the manufacturer. Two oil consumption tests were performed on the vehicle and both results showed that the engine was consuming one quart of oil every 400 miles. The vehicle failed both oil consumption tests and the manufacturer stated that the engine needed to be replaced; however, the manufacturer would only cover 65% of the cost of a new engine. The vehicle had yet to be repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 56,000.

2017 HYUNDAI SONATA- Imperial Beach, CA
Roughly 6 months ago the problem first occurred while backing up in a parking lot a steering wheel lit up on the dash as well as a traction control light in which then the steering wheel became hard to turn or loss of power steering. about 4 months ago the same thing occurred while driving the vehicle making a right turn power steering got tough and I had to slam on the brakes or I would have hit a another vehicle. And today the same thing happened while pulling into a parking lot I do have video and pictures of the situation The vehicle was taken to the Hyundai dealer last week where they had the vehicle for 3 days just to tell me the issue is not present or can't be duplicated so nothing was fixed. I got this vehicle from my wife and kids and now I don't want them around it. Don't understand how Hyundai has not put out a recall on this one search of the internet shows thousands of complaints about the same situation with the power steering

2017 HYUNDAI SONATA- Oakdale, CA
While driving home my engine light came on for 5 minutes and went off and my car started to stall in the middle of traffic and produced a loud and hard knocking noise. When coming to a stop sign and trying to accelerate the car didn’t want to accelerate at first and when it did the knocking got louder and the car started to shake. Upon getting it diagnosed, results are the rod bearings in cylinder 3 AND 4 . Car is also losing oil somewhere somehow.

When I was coming home from my parents' house the steering wheel locked up two times on the way back from there. Both times I had to pull off to the side of road and turn the car off and then back on for the steering wheel to go back to normal this has not happened in 6 months I've called Hyundai and told them about it and they are not willing to do a recall.
