2014 HYUNDAI SONATA Complaints

SINCE I BOUGHT THIS CAR IN OCT 2014 I'VE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE LIGHTS. I CAN BE DRIVING AND THEY CUT OFF. I CAN TURN ON MY TURN SIGNAL AND THE LIGHTS GO OUT. OR I'LL BE DRIVING AND THE INSIDE LIGHTS COME ON BY THEMSELVES. WHEN I DRIVE MY STEERING WHEEL SHAKES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HYUNDAI SONATA. WHILE DRIVING 80 MPH, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE WHILE DEPRESSING THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL. ALSO, THE RPMS INCREASED AND THE SERVICE ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT PULLED THE VEHICLE OVER, TURNED IT OFF AND RESTARTED IT, SHIFTED INTO DRIVE, AND THE VEHICLE OPERATED NORMALLY. WHEN THE FAILURE OCCURRED, THE GEAR SHIFTER WAS NOT REGISTERING A POSITION SUCH AS DRIVE OR PARK. AT TIMES, THE VEHICLE FAILS TO DOWNSHIFT.

TAKATA RECALL, MY ENGINE HAS A VERY SERIOUS SHAKE, IT ONLY HAPPENS EVERY ONCE IN AWHILE AND THE CAR IS ALWAYS WARM BEFORE SO I KNOW IT'S NOT JUST COLD. WHEN IT SHAKES MY VOICE EVEN SHAKES IT'S SO BAD. I HAVE PULLED OVER AND LIFTED THE HOOD TO FIND THE ENTIRE ENGINE SEVERELY SHAKING. THIS NEEDS TO BE RECALLED. VERY UNSAFE.

HEADLIGHTS AND INSIDE DASH LIGHTS TURN OFF FOR NO REASON WHILE DRIVING SERIOUS PROBLEM! IT HAS HAPPENED ON SEVERAL OVCASIONS

MY CAR HAD AN ENGINE RECALL AND HYUNDAI DID NOT FIX IT BECAUSE IT IS A REBUILD CAR BUT THE ENGINE PROBLEM WAS AFTER THE COLLISION SO IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE CRASH, THEY SHOULD FIX IT. I HAVE A BABY AND THE CAR JUST STOP AT THE MIDDLE OF THE TURNPIKE, ME AND MY BABY COULD GET HURT BECAUSE OF HYUNDAI

TAKATA RECALL. I HAVE ONCE EXPERIENCED A MYSTERIOUS ENGINE STALL FOR MY AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION CAR. I WAS TAKING A RIGHT TURN AT A STOPLIGHT, THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED AND I COULD NOT CHANGE THE DRIVE STATUS FROM DRIVE TO PARK. I JUST HAD TO TURN OFF THE CAR. LUCKILY I WAS NOT IN A DANGEROUS SITUATION.
