2013 HYUNDAI SONATA Complaints

I WAS CHANGING TO THE LEFT LANE I USED THE TURN INDICATOR AND IT WOULD NOT RELEASE IT STAYED BLINKING AS I CONTINUED DRIVING AND TO DISCONTINUE THE BLINKING. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TURNS (LEFT OR RIGHT) I HAVE TO SOMETIMES USE THE INDICATOR OF HIGH BEAM TO DISCONTINUE THE BLINKING. I HAVE ALSO NOTICED THAT WHEN I USED THE INSIDE DASH BOARD LAMP THE LEFT HEADLIGHT BLEW OUT ONLY THE RIGHT HEADLIGHT HAS LIT UP USING THE REMOTE UNLOCK.

OK I'M AM SERIOUSLY GOING TO START LOOKING INTO FILING A CLASS ACTION AGAINST HYUNDAI. FOR THE 6-7TH TIME MY BRAKE LIGHTS ARE MELTING AND BURNING OUT. AT THIS POINT IT'S BECOME A SAFETY ISSUE DRIVING AROUND AT NIGHT OR EARLY MORNING WITH NO BRAKE LIGHTS. HOW HAS THIS NOT BEEN RESOLVED BY NOW? THE COST OF REPAIRS IS TOO MUCH FOR THE ISSUE TO NOT EVEN BEING RESOLVED. ALMOST EVERY HYUNDAI I SEE HAS BRAKE LIGHTS OUT AND PEOPLE ARE CONSTANTLY TELLING ME MY LIGHTS ARE OUT. EVEN POLICE NOTE HYUNDAI DRIVERS HAVE A CONSTANT ISSUE WITH THIS. THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL NOW!

I HAD AM ACCIDENT AND WAS HIT HARD AND DAMAGE TO PASSENGER SIDE AN THE AIRBAGS DIDNT GO OFF. I WAS IN MOTION ON US 19 HIGHWAY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HYUNDAI SONATA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS WITHOUT WARNING THE VEHICLE LOSS MOTIVE POWER. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO (NISSANI BROS. NISSAN 5750 MESMER AVE A, CULVER CITY, CA 90230 (310) 313-3400) TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE POWER RELAY ASSEMBLY SENSOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. WHILE PERFORMING A SEARCH FOR RECALLS THE CONTACT BECAME AWARE OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V226000 (ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING) WHICH WAS A POSSIBLE SOLUTION TO THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND OFFERED TO PAY A PORTION OF THE REPAIR. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 151,894.

WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY IN MOTION, CAR STALLED WARNING. ALL LIGHTS ON THE DASHBOARD CAME ON. COULD NOT BRAKE. COULD NOT SHIFT CAR OUT OF DRIVE. COULD NOT TURN THE CAR OFF. HAD TO ENGAGE EMERGENCY BRAKE.

ENGINE LOCKED UP. I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE AND THE CAR WENT DEAD. I CALLED FOR A TOW TRUCK AND GOT IT TOWED TO A MECHANIC AND FOUND OUT THE ENGINE WAS LOCKED UP. AFTER DOING A LITTLE RESEARCH I FOUND OUT THIS IS COMMON IN THIS VEHICLE. COULD YOU PLEASE POINT ME IN THE DIRECTION OF WHAT I NEED TO DO?

I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK AND THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN MY HEADLIGHTS WENT OUT, SO I PULLED OVER CHECKED MY BULBS AND THEY WERE PERFECTLY FINE NOT BURNED OUT NEITHER WAS THE FUSE, I WAS STUMPED SO I CALLED MY INSURANCE CARRIER TO HAVE MY VEHICLE TOWED HOME. THE NEXT DAY I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME TO TAKE THE VEHICLE IN TO DIAGNOSE THE ISSUE ONLY TO CHARGE ME $95 FOR A FIND OF THE WIRING IN THE HEADLIGHTS TO BE AFFECTED , IVE READ ONLINE OTHER CONSUMERS ARE HAVING ISSUES WITH THE SAME THING NOT TO MENTION THE MANUFACTURER HAVING OVER 5 RECALLS FOR THESE VEHICLE WHICH CONSIDERS THEM AS LEMON VEHICLES UNDER THE CALIFORNIA LEMON LAW

THE FLEXIBLE COUPLING IN THE STEERING COLUMN THAT CONNECTS THE STEERING INPUT TO THE SERVO MOTOR IS DISINTEGRATING, CAUSING DRIVER INPUT TO FEEL "STICKY". THE VEHICLE IS UNRESPONSIVE TO SMALL STEERING CORRECTIONS. THE VEHICLE IS DIFFICULT TO CONTROL, ESPECIALLY ON THE FREEWAY, POSSIBLY RESULTING IN UNINTENTIONAL LANE DEPARTURE AND COLLISION. THIS SAME ISSUE WAS RECALLED ON ELANTRA MODELS.

BOTH HEADLIGHTS AND BREAK LIGHTS CONTINUE GOING OUT. FIRST TIME I REPLACED THE BREAK LIGHTS, THEY HAD MELTED TO THE UNIT. I HAVE HAD BOTH HEADLIGHTS GO OUT AT THE SAME TIME ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS. I HAVE REPLACED THE ALTERNATOR TWICE NOW AND IT IS LOOKING LIKE I WILL HAVE TO REPLACE IT AGAIN SOON, HEADLIGHTS ARE GETTING DULL (IT'S HARD TO SEE, AND MY BRIGHTS WON'T CLICK ON (IT IS NOT THE BLINKER COLUMN)), THE BATTERY HAS BEEN REPLACED WHEN THE ALTERNATOR WAS REPLACED AS WELL. THIS IS GETTING EXPENSIVE. THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME IT WAS THE BLINKER COLUMN WHEN IT WAS ACTUALLY THE ALTERNATOR. REPLACING THE LIGHTS HAVE BEEN HAPPENING FOR YEARS, THE ALTERNATOR PROBLEM STARTED LAST YEAR, SO WITHIN 2 MONTHS OF REPLACING IT THE FIRST TIME, IT WENT OUT AGAIN, AND NOW 5 MONTHS LATER, IT IS NEEDING TO THE BE REPLACED AGAIN. IT APPEARS THAT IT IS PERHAPS AN ELECTRICALLY ISSUE SINCE LIGHTS, BATTERY, AND ALTERNATOR ARE GOING OUT.

I WAS DRIVING TO WORK AND ABOUT TO TURN INTO THE PARKING LOT AND I CAME TO A STOP AT THE MEDIAN AND THE CAR DIED. I WENT TO TURN ON THE CAR AND DASH AND RADIO CAME ON BUT ENGINE DID NOT TURN OVER. I ATTEMPTED TWO MORE TIMES AND SMOKE STARTED TO COME OUT. THERE WERE NO ALERTS OF CHECK ENGINE OR OIL AT ANY POINT. LAST OIL CHANGE WAS ONLY A MONTH OR SO OVERDUE AS I HAD NOT DRIVEN FOR A MONTH AT ALL DUE TO WORKING FROM HOME. NO OIL L LEAKS IN DRIVEWAY.
