2012 HYUNDAI SONATA Complaints

MY BREAK LIGHT WAS STAYIN ON EVEN AFTER I REMOVED MY FOOT OFF THE BREAK PAD.I NOTICED A SMALL. RUBBER BREAK STOPPER FALL OFF THE BREAK PAD.I TOOK MY CAR TO THE HYUNDAI DEALER TO SEE IF THERE WAS A RECALL ON MY CAR WHICH THEY STATED 'NO',AND I ENDED UP PAYING 152.31 FOR THE FIX WHICH HAS A GUARANTEE FOR AS LONG AS I OWN MY CAR IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN.I RECENTLY CHECKED MY CREDIT ON CREDIT KARMA WHICH SHOW MY INFORMATION AS OWNER OF THE 2012 SONATA AND IT SHOWS THE BREAK LIGHT RECALL WHICH I WAS CORRECT WHEN I NOTICED THE PROBLEM.AND IT SHOW ON MY CREDIT KARMA AS NOT DONE AS YET.I HAVE RECEIPT OF PROOF THAT THEY DID THE JOB AND CHARGED ME THE 152.31 WHICH I WAS NOT SUPPOSED TO PAY AS IT IS A RECALL.MY WIFE NOTICED THAT THE BREAK LIGHT STAYED ON WHEN THE CAR WAS SHUT OFF.IT WAS FIXED ON APRIL 30TH 2018.I COMPLAINED ABOUT IT BEING A RECALL BUT THEY DENIED IT.I FOUND OUT IT WAS A RECALL THROUGH MY CREDIT KARMA AND VIN NUMBER.

CAR HAD A THRUSTING NOISE WHEN ACCELERATING ON FREEWAY, LOST STRENGTH POWER, NO WARNING LIGHTS WERE ON. ELECTRICAL WENT OUT, THEN CAME BACK ON WHEN I TRIED TO START IT AGAIN. UPON DECELERATION, SMOKE COMING FROM BACK, THEN UPON STOP SMOKE WAS IN FRONT. WHEN HOOD WAS LIFTED, FIRE AT THE SIDE OF THE ENGINE BLOCK.

THE CAR HAS RANDOMLY STALLED THREE TIMES, TWO OF WHICH OCCURRED WHEN ENTERING TRAFFIC (RIGHT-TURN MAJOR INTERSECTION AND ENTERING HIGHWAY). ALL LIGHTS ON DASH APPEAR WITHOUT WARNING AND THE CAR WONT ACCELERATE, BRAKE OPTIMALLY, OR STEER (LIKE IN THE LAST INSTANCE). CAR WON'T START BACK UP AT ALL NOW, WON;T EVEN TRY TO TURN OVER. ALL INSTANCES OCCURRED RANDOMLY WHILE IN MOTION. THE FIRST TWO TIMES IT HAPPENED THE CAR STARTED UP WITH A SPUTTERING HESITATION, NOW I AM PRETTY SURE THE ENGINE SEIZED ON THE LAST OCCURRENCE.

MAYOR WORLD PUT NEW BALL JOINTS STEERING NEED ALIGNMENT THEY DON WANT TO DO I HAVE TO PAY FOR THAT JOB I PURCHASE A 3 YEAR SERVICE THEY DON'T WANT TO FIX NOTHING UNDER THE CONTRACT SERVICE..

I WAS DRIVING MY 2012 HYUNDAI SONATA HYBRID AND ALL OF THE SUDDEN SMOKE STARTED COMING INSIDE THE CAR FROM THROUGHOUT THE DASHBOARD I PULLED OVER RIGHT AWAY AND OPENED THE HOOD AND I SAW FIRE AT BACK OF ENGINE WHERE THE ORANGE TUBE AND COMPONENT. AFTER THAT THE WHOLE CAR CAUGHT ON FIRE IT WAS TOTAL LOST. BY THE WAY AT THE SAME DAY AT 7:45 AM I WAS AT RICK CASE HYUNDAI FOR MAINTENANCE FOR THE CAR.

WHEN STARTING THE CAR, EPS CAME UP. TRIED TO PULL OUT OF DRIVEWAY, BUT STEERING WHEEL WAS LOCKED.

WAS DRIVING TO WORK AND THE CAR CUT OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD ALLOWED ME ENOUGH MOVEMENT TO TURN IN PARKING LOT AND GET HALFWAY IN TO A PARKING SPACE

I HAVE NO LIGHT SOCKETS THEY ARE MELTED RITE OUT THE BAULB FALL RITE OUT I HAVE TO CHANGE MY HEADLIGHT EVERY 2 MONTHS AND MY TAIL LIGHTS EVERY WEEK

STEERING COLUMN KNOCKLNG. LOUD RATTLE NOISE WHEN TURNLNG STEERING WHEEL .SIGNIFICANT SAFETY CONCERNS..STEERING COULD LOCK UP.CAUSING LOSS OF VEHICLE CONTROL.NOISE IS CONSTANT WHEN VEHICLE IS STATIONARY OR IN MOTION

ARRIVING AT BUSY INTERSECT WHEN ACCELERATORS AND BRAKES CEASED TO WORK ALL DASH LIGHTS BEGAN FLASHING AND I WAS FORTUNATE ENOUGH FOR LIGHT TO BE GREEN AND WAS ABLE TO COAST TO A STOP AT SHOULDER THROUGH INTERSECTION W FLASHERS AND HORN BLOWING ! I RESTARTED CAR AND PULLED INTO A LOCAL BUSINESS W A CLUNKING NOISE!! WAS TOLD BY MY MECHANIC WHO HAS REGULARLY SERVICED THIS VEHICLE THAT IT WAS THE ENGINE ! WHY BRAKE/ACCELERATION NOT WORKING ?? I WAS TOLD HE'S HAD 3 OTHER SONATAS IN THIS MONTH THAT 'JUST BURNED UP ALL THE OIL ' WITHOUT A LIGHT ON OR ANYTHING. I COULD HAVE BEEN ON S BUSY HIGHWAY AND KILLED IN ADDITION TO RISK TO OTHERS.
