2019 Hyundai Kona complaints

My 20year old daughter had gone to a dealership to get her first vehicle and they have her a recalled vehicle without knowing about it. She was financed a 2019 Hyundai Kona with a high monthly fee. She was told the vehicle had no issues but then 3 days ago (1/26/22) we received a call regarding recall from the dealer. The dealership called with the manager apologizing profusely and stating that they were unaware of recall from (4/2021) and that the vehicle should not have been allowed for sale / finance/ lease. They said it was a big mistake. They told us that because they are not the manufacturer, we had to take it to the a Hyundai dealership. She took it yesterday (1/27/22) and they said to bring it back on Monday to fix😑😳 despite the danger🤷🏽‍♀️. They refused to even provide a rental car for free.

I was driving the vehicle. All of a sudden, all the lights went out on the vehicle. This includes the instrumentation panel, interior lights, brake lights, etc. I drove the car to a safe location and stopped the engine. I then restarted the car and everything started normally.

Car will stall while driving, coming to a stop and slowing down. Loud clanking and knocking noise in engine, massive oil consumption, engine light illuminated, bad acceleration then stalling, rough idle and stalls while backing up. I am terrified of driving this car and it stalls when turning and coming to a stop or just slowing down. I can smell oil burning and no one at hyndai wants to help me at all. Driving it out of the dealership when I had it checked for the recall and it died 2 times. I am going to lose everything I have worked for all because this car is not working properly. Dealership allowed me to drive away knowing the car stalls while driving and wanted me to pay for another engine diagnostic test even though they stated they did one.this makes no sense and I am severely frustrated!!! I will never buy another hyundai!!!

Speedometer is not measuring correctly to the actual speed of car. Was actually driving about 15 mph faster than found on the analog gauge without knowing. The dealer confirmed that speedometer was reading 15 MPH under the actual speed of the car. Do not now if the car component was inspected by manufacturer, police, insurance or others. There was no warning presented by the car of the defect. Only that my son told me that according to the digital speed signs on the street we were going to fast. the car was turned in for repair of speedometer R.O.

Yesterday my car, Hyundai Kona 2019, stalled out for no reason while the vehicle was in motion. There were no warning signs on the panel. I change the oil regularly, but the car keeps burning oil very quickly before the next planned oil change, however, I never have any warning signs that my oil level is low. I could have gotten into an accident, and now I am afraid of driving because the car can stall at any moment, and cause an accident.

From mid-May, my wife noticed the Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) illuminate on the dashboard. The MIL light would intermittently illuminate and not display at times. 1) In June, I went on Hyundai's website using my log on account to request for service. A specific date was requested but not response was provided. 2) on June 17 at 10:39 AM HST, I called Hyundai Service center and a left a message to request service for the MIL issue. 3) on June 18 at 08:52 AM HST, I called Hyundai Service center and a left a message to request service for the same issue. On July 05, 2021 , I just opened a letter from Hyundai for an important Safety recall regarding our vehicle involving defective piston oil rings that could result in abnormal knocking or stalling. I believe this is a serious issue that needs immediate attention, however, we are unable to receive any service here. My wife at this time is very afraid to drive the vehicle unless this issues is resolved. Please advise us what steps can be taken from NHTSA. The service level for Hyundai is extremely poor , at this point we want to somehow terminate our lease . Best Regards

ONCE AGAIN NOTHING WAS OBSERVED WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE BUT THE SECOND TIME LAST NIGHT THE CAR WAS BROUGHT TO THE REPAIR SHOP AND THEY STATED THE ENGINE HAS LITTLE TO NO COMPRESSION.

VEHICLE STALLS WITH A/C RUNNING ON TURNS. IT IS INTERMITTENT ISSUE. BY PUTTING VEHICLE BACK IN NEUTRAL VEHICLE RESTARTS RIGHT AWAY. THIS HAPPENS NORMALLY IN HOTTER WEATHER. CALLED DEALER AND TAKEN VEHICLE IN AND CAN NOT DUPLICATE. SO NO FIX. THIS IS A 2019 HYUNDAI KONA WITH 19,500 MILES. OTHERS ON HYUNDAI WEBSITE OWNERS CLUB HAVE SAME ISSUES. HYUNDAI IS NOT A BAD COMPANY. BUT THEY NEED TO INVESTIGATE ISSUES IF SO MANY OF US ARE HAVING SAME ISSUES. DOESN'T SEEM TO BE RELATED TO THE ENGINE OPTIONS HAPPENS WITH BOTH ENGINE OPTIONS.

A COUPLE HUNDRED MILES AFTER PURCHASING A NEW KONA, I HAD STARTED HAVING ACCELERATION ISSUES GOING FROM A DEAD STOP INTO FIRST GEAR .AS THE CAR STARTS TO GO, THIS IS UNDER 5 MPH, THE CAR THEN HESITATES AS IF SOMEONE IS HITTING THE BRAKES. I HAVE ALMOST BEEN REAR ENDED SEVERAL TIMES DUE TO THIS. IT IS A SPORADIC ISSUE. I HAVE HAD IT INTO HYUNDAI 3X NOW FOR THIS. ALL 3 X HYUNDAI STATES THEY CAN NOT REPAIR UNLESS IT HAPPENS WHILE TEST DRIVING . OF COURSE THIS HAS NOT HAPPENED. SO THEY HAVE " RESET" MY DRIVING COMPUTER 2X HOPING IT WILL STOP.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 HYUNDAI KONA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITH THE FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS RESTARTED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE RECURRED AFTER DRIVING FOR 30 MINUTES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO LIA HYUNDAI ALBANY LOCATED AT (945 CENTRAL AVE, ALBANY, NY 12205) WHERE THE TECHNICIAN WAS UNABLE TO PROVIDE A CAUSE FOR THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED TO TAKE A PICTURE WHEN THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE CONTACT WAS CONCERNED ABOUT ATTEMPTING TO TAKE A PICTURE WHILE DRIVING SHOULD THE FAILURE RECUR. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 2,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.

AT ABOUT 8300 MILES I WAS BACKING OUT OF A PARKING SPOT. HEARD A NOISE COMING FROM STEERING COLUMN. TOOK TO HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP. 1ST VISIT THEY WERE CLOSED DUE TO POWER OUTAGE. 2ND TRIP. MECHANIC COULDN'T HEAR NOISE. HAD ANOTHER MECHANIC ALONG. HAD TO PLAY A VIDEO I RECORDED ON MY CELL PHONE. MECHANIC PULLS BACK INTO SHOP. HALF HOUR LATER, I GET TOLD THEY HAD TO ORDER A STEERING COLUMN. CAR NOW HAS JUST OVER 8600 MILES. THE NOISE SOUNDS LIKE A BAD BEARING. CAN BE HEARD PARKED AND TURNING STEERING WHEEL LEFT AND RIGHT. *TR

THE CAR BREAKS DOES NOT GET APPLIED INTERMITTENTLY, I HAD A FORWARD COLLISION. THE FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE / WARNING DID NOT WORK. THE INCIDENT HAPPENED AT A BUSY STREET WITH SLOW MOVING TRAFFIC. THIS IS THE 2ND TIME THE BREAK DID NOT GET APPLIED, THE FIRST TIME THE ROAD AHEAD WAS CLEAR.

DELAYS IN ACCELERATION, NOT CHANGING GEARS PROPERLY. SOMETIMES WHEN ACCELERATING THE VEHICLE WILL JUST REV THE ENGINE LIKE ITS IN NEUTRAL. ACCELERATION DELAYS VERY SCARY WHEN MERGING, ACCELERATING FROM FULL STOP AND PASSING. BOUGHT APRIL 2019.

WHEN I COME TO A SLIGHT UPHILL INCLINE, SLOW DOWN WITHOUT FULLY STOPPING, AND THEN ATTEMPT TO ACCELERATE, THERE ARE TIMES WHEN THE TRANSMISSION FEELS AS IF IT IS IN NEUTRAL. THE ENGINE WILL REV UP TO APPROXIMATELY 2000 RPM BUT THE VEHICLE WILL NOT ACCELERATE FOR APPROXIMATELY 1 SECOND. THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN, THE CAR WILL ACCELERATE FORWARD AT A RAPID PACE. IT SEEMS AS IF THE TRANSMISSION IS IN BETWEEN GEARS AND THE TRANSMISSION THEN SUDDENLY REALIZES THAT IT NEEDS TO ACCELERATE AND THEN WILL ACCELERATE USUALLY AT A FAST PACE. THE FEELING IS THAT OF A MANUAL TRANSMISSION WHEN THE CLUTCH IS RELEASED WHILE THE ENGINE IS AT A HIGHER RPM. MY CAR HAS THE TRADITIONAL 6 SPEED AUTOMATIC AND NOT THE DUAL CLUTCH TRANSMISSION. THIS IS AN INTERMITTENT ISSUE AND THE CAR WAS BROUGHT TO THE DEALER'S SERVICE DEPARTMENT. THE TECH STATED THAT THE TRANSMISSION WAS WORKING FINE AND THERE WERE NO NEW SOFTWARE UPDATES FOR THE TRANSMISSION.

UPON COLLISION (FRONT END) AT ABOUT 35 MPH THE VEHICLE BURST INTO FLAMES AND CONTINUED TO BURN UNTIL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT SHOWED UP. IN ADDITION, THERE MAY BE AN ISSUE WITH THE SEAT BELT MECHANISM. DRIVER'S CLAVICLE WAS FRACTURED AND DISPLACED UPON IMPACT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 HYUNDAI KONA. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH, THE FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM SUDDENLY ACTIVATED, WHICH CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO ABRUPTLY SLOW DOWN. ALSO, WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, THE DRIVER'S SEAT HEATER ERRONEOUSLY ACTIVATED AND THE DOORS WOULD NOT AUTOMATICALLY LOCK WHEN SWITCHING TO THE DRIVE POSITION. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURES WAS NOT DETERMINED. JIM BURKE HYUNDAI (4445 13TH ST NORTH, BIRMINGHAM, AL) WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 8,000.

WHEN LEAVING HOME THE VEHICLE HAD LITTLE ACCELERATION AND POOR SHIFTING. TOOK TOO MUCH TIME MERGING INTO TRAFFIC. AFTER CONTACTING THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP THE PROBLEM CLEARED UP AS IT HAD DONE BEFORE. DROVE TO THE LOCAL HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP. OBDII CODE READ P0193.

LITTLE TO NO ACCELERATION WHEN GAS PEDAL IS DEPRESSED WHILE IN MOTION. LOSS OF POWER WOULD SUDDENLY OCCUR. TRANSMISSION WOULD NO LONGER SHIFT PROPERLY. THIS HAS OCCURRED TWICE SINCE NEWLY PURCHASED MAY 31, 2019. FUEL INJECTOR WIRING HARNESS WAS REPLACED AFTER THE FIRST OCCURRENCE. PROBLEM COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED AFTER THE SECOND OCCURRENCE.

CAR AT TIMES WILL NOT ACCELERATE FROM A STOP FOR 2 TO 3 SECONDS AFTER ACCLERATER IS PUSH.

STARTUP AND DRIVING FOR 15 MINUTES BCW WARNING SYSTEM DISABLED RADAR BLOCKED MESSAGE COMES ON, YIELD SIGN WITH EXCLAIMATION POINT COMES ON, AND THE BUTTON THAT TURNS THE SYSTEM ON/OFF LEFT OF STEERING WHEEL GOES OUT ERROR STAYS APPROX 20-25 MINUTES AND THEN RESETS ITSELF PULLING OFF ROAD, AND RESTARTING THE CAR, IT WILL ALSO CLEAR THE ERROR, WE HAVE WIPED AND CLEANED BUMPER AND SENSOR AREAS, HAVE HAD CAR INTO 2 DEALERSHIPS, THEY SAY SYSTEM IS OPERATING AS IT SHOULD, CAN NOT REPRODUCE PROBLEM. THIS ERROR HAPPENS EVERY SINGLE TIME I DRIVE THE CAR (EARLY MORNING , I HAVE NOT HAD IT HAPPEN AT OTHER TIME, ALTHOUGH HUSBAND HAS TWICE.DEALERSHIPS CLAIM THAT SOME KIND OF RADAR IS INTERFERRING, OR THE SYSTEM TURNS OFF WHEN IT HASNT DETECTED ANOTHER CAR IN THE MIRRORS AFTER 10 MINUTES. MY QUESTION IS, THIS IS A SAFETY FEATURE, WHY WOULD IT JUST TURN ITSELF OFF? OTHER THINGS I HAVE NOTICED ARE, IF PULLING OFF ROAD WHEN ERROR OCCURS, AND GOING INTO MENU TO CHANGE ANY CAR SETTINGS, THE BCW FEATURE IS COMPLETELY MISSING FROM THE MENU WHEN THE ERROR IS ON. AND ALSO THE BUTTON TO THE LEFT OF STEERING WHEEL WHICH TURNS SYSTEM ON/OFF. ( IN THE DARK) YOU CAN SEE IT "BLINKING IN A CONSISTANT FASHION. WHEN THE SYSTEM IS ABOUT TO "FAIL/ SEND THE ERROR CODE, I HAVE NOTICED THAT THE BUTTON IS NO LONGER "BLINKING" ( YOU CAN ONLY TAKE NOTICE OF THE BUTTON BLINKING IN THE BACKGROUND WHEN ITS DARK OUT. REPORTED MY PROBLEM DIRECTLY TO HYUNDAI IN CALIFORNIA, THEY CLOSED CASE BECAUSE DEALERSHIPS COULDNT REP

2019 HYUNDAI KONA. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO DEFECTIVE BRAKING SYSTEM. *LD THE CONSUMER STATED THE FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM WAS INOPERABLE.
