2017 HYUNDAI SONATA Complaints

I have a 2.4L 4 cylinder enginr.lI noticed that I would get my oil change and a few weeks later my oil light would come on and I would have to add oil. This had been going on for the past year with no one able to provide an explanation. About a month or so ago, my car began to violently shake,, loss acceleration and my check engine light came on. A mechanic looked at my vehicle advised he saw oil on all my spark plugs and said the 3rd chamber was losing compression. Doing some research I found out that the engine in my car has a recall for defective connecting rod bearing issues. The dealership is telling me that is not the issue even though the have not broken down the engine as the issue could be due to the recall....I need help I am without a car and my warranty has expired.

The Hyundai was started, feint knocking was heard. Progressed louder as vehicle accelerated, engine then stalled, check engine light and oil pressure light turned on and traction control disengaged as the vehicle erupted into a rolling blaze

The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Sonata. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 21V619000 (Latches/Locks/Linkages) however, the part to do the recall repair was unavailable. The local dealer was contacted and confirmed that the part was not yet available. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue. The contact had not experienced a failure. Parts distribution disconnect.

Vehicle’s engine began to emit a knocking sound that would increase in volume and speed as engine progressed in speed. Engine suddenly lost power, check engine light began to flash and traction control disabled itself. Vehicle was pulled over and turned off when it immediately began to rapidly self immolate over the course of minutes while the power to the engine was completely disabled.

The vehicle is available upon requested inspection. Since I bought the car in 2019 it has made a rattling sound like the engine is knocking. Not a severe knocking, however, it does make a clicking/rattling sound in idle, occurs more rapidly while accelerating, then sounds like a muffled diesel while the engine’s torque is dropping when shifted into neutral coasting on the road. Oil has been changed in its due time. Between 3k - 7k as scheduled. Independent service provider didn’t think it was normal and recommend I check for recalls. I asked Hyundai dealership representative and said it’s a normal sound. Other vehicles I’ve driven don’t sound like this. Even an older ‘96 Buick sounded smoother running. Nothing has failed, caused an injury or accident. Engine light has recently come on. Temperature is hotter, according to the gage, than we’re it has typically sat for the past couple years. The potential risks increased, not knowing what can happen, when the temp rose and engine light comes. . . . . . . . . . . This, aside from previously stated concern, alarm activates (mostly during the rainy cloudy weather) when manually unlocking the car. Having to relook and unlock to silence alarm.

Was driving and the steering wheel became hard to steer. Had two lights come on the dash, steering wheel with an exclamation point and the traction control. I was able to pull over and shut the car off. I waited a few minutes and turned the car back on. The lights went off and steering was back.

Vehicle seemed to burning oil. Losing oil a month after oil change. Emission issues, rattling and fumes when running.

The oil burns way to fast in these cars because of the engine there should definitely be a recall to asses this situation as I’m not the only one with this problem. This is a problem for Hyundai owners as you have to replace your oil even when the car states you have about 3K MILES left before a refill.

Paint Peeling Off - It's a 2017 Hyudai Sonata. It has about 55K miles. All of a sudden the paint started peeling off. The car is white. I did a bit of research and there a numerous complaints about the paint. Here is a reference of one of the websites that report the issue. https://www.hyundai-forums.com/threads/2017-sonata-paint-chipping.646195/

power steering went out, apparently this is common with this year/model but there is still not a recall on it
