WHEN I GO TO SWITCH LANES WHILE DRIVING THE LONGER LIGHT TURNS ON AND THE DASHBOARD ILLUMINATES. IT LOOKS LIKE ITS HAVING ISSUES. IT HAS HAPPENED MORE THAN ONCE. AND I DECIDED TO REPORT IT BECAUSE I WAS IN BACK OF A POLICE CAR TODAY AND IT WAS EMBARRASINF HE ASKED ME WHAT WAS WRONG. AND ITS A NEW CAR. BOUGHT IT FROM CARMAX.

SONATA RECALL 169. STARTED OCT 4, 2017. SEATING BELT LINKAGE DETACHES FROM SEAT BELT ANCHORAGE IN AN ACCIDENT. NO REMEDY GIVEN, NOR LETTER RECEIVED ON WHAT TO DO.
