2014 Hyundai Sonata complaints

I WAS DRIVING TO PICK UP MY FRIEND AND HER SON, WHEN I NOTICE THE CAR WAS REVVING UP AS IF IT WAS IN THE WRONG GEAR. THEN IT GOT WORSE AS I KEPT DRIVING BECAUSE THE CAR BEGAN TO JERK AS I TRIED TO PULL OFF, AND WHEN IT CHECKED THE GEAR, IT WAS STUCK IN THE FOURTH GEAR. AFTER RUSHING TO GET BACK HOME MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND I STARTED SEARCHING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT'S WRONG. I NOTICED A PREVIOUS RECALL BUT WHEN I TOLD KEY HYUNDAI ABOUT THE PROBLEM, I WAS TOLD MY VIN NUMBER WAS COVERED BY THE RECALL

THE CAR WAS TOKEN THE DEALER, WHERE IT WAS BOUGHT, SINCE THEY HAD TOLD US THEY HAD SOME REPAIRING TO DO BUT THE CAR STAYED THE SAME. THE ENGINE MAKES A VERY UNPLEASANT NOISE, EVERY TIME. WITH THE STEERING WHEEL, WHILE TURNING LEFT, IT SEMI GETS STUCK. IN ORDER FOR THAT TO NOT HAPPEN, YOU BASICALLY HAVE TURN IT RIGHT AWAY. IT IS AT VERY HIGH RISK DUE TO THE FACT THAT IF IT WOULD MANAGE TO GET STUCK, IT MAY CAUSE AN UNNECESSARY ACCIDENT. WHEN IT COMES TO THE WHEELS, EVERY TIME IT TURNS LEFT OR RIGHT IT MAKES A VERY ROCKY NOISE. WE HAVE CALLED TIME AND TIME FOR A REPARATION OR TO AT LEAST HAVE SOMETHING DONE. NO ONE HAS SEEMED TO REALLY CARE NOR CATCH THEIR ATTENTION.

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. THE CONTACT CALLED DRIVETIME USED CARS (8341 INDIANA AVE, RIVERSIDE, CA 92504, (951) 353-2277) WHERE SHE RECENTLY PURCHASED THE VEHICLE AND WAS ADVISED TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO PEP BOYS IN SAN BERNARDINO, CA WHERE IT WAS AWAITING DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 62,000.

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

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.

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

THE ENGINE STALLED ON SEVERSL OCCASIONS AND THE DEALERSHIP COULD NOT DUPLICATE. ON 7/21/2014 IT STALLED AGAIN WHILE IN GEAR.,CLOSING DAMAGE TO FRONT BNKER STERLING LOSS CONTROL WHILE BACKING OUT OF HNDICAP SPOT. THERE IS AN INSURANCE CLAIM, TOWING, BODY SHOP REPAIR AND RENT A CAR COSTS.

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.

I HAVE A 2014 HYUNDAI SONATA. THE PANORAMIC SUNROOF EXPLODED WHILE I WAS DRIVING. AFTER TRYING TO FIND A REPAIR SHOP I SEEN THAT IT IS ACTUALLY HAPPENING TO ALL MODELS WITH THE PANORAMIC ROOF FROM HYUNDAI. IS ANYONE ELSE AWARE OF THIS? WHAT WILL HYUNDAI DO ABOUT THIS? IS IT EVEN SAFE TO DRIVE?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HYUNDAI SONATA. WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH, THE PANORAMIC SUN ROOF EXPLODED. THE CONTACT CALLED A LOCAL DEALER (POHANKA HYUNDAI, 1770 RITCHIE STATION CT, CAPITOL HEIGHTS, MD 20743 301-423-1100) AND WAS INFORMED TO CONTACT A GLASS SPECIALIST. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED MINOR CUTS THAT DID NOT REQUIRE MEDICAL ATTENTION. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE ISSUE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 62,141.

I WENT FOR AN OIL CHANGE, AND THEY LISTENED TO MY ENGINE FOR THE ENGINE RECALL. I TOLD THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT THAT IT WAS THE NOISIEST STARTING CAR I HAVE EVER OWNED. I BELIEVE THEY OUT AN OIL ADDITIVE IN IT TO QUIET MY ENGINE BEFORE TESTING IT TO TRY TO AVOID REPLACING THE ENGINE. IT IS SUDDENLY THE QUIETEST STARTING CAR I HAVE EVER OWNED. THIS UPSETS ME GREATLY, AS I BELIEVE THEY ARE NOT HONORING THE ENGINE RECALL BY USING AN ENGINE QUIETING ADDITIVE. I HAVE BEEN WORKING ON CARS FOR OVER 40 YEARS. I AM VERY JN HAPPY THAT THIS IS HAPPENING.

HYUNDAI SONATA ENGINE FAILURE. I WAS DRIVING AND MY CAR STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. I PUT IT IN PARK AND PUT MY HAZARDS ON. I PROCEEDED TO START THE CAR AND WHEN I DID, THE CAR CAUGHT ON FIRE. SMELLED LIKE WIRES ON FIRE. HYUNDAI WAS NOTIFIED AND MY CAR WAS TOWED AND FIXED AT THE DEALERSHIP. IT TOOK ABOUT 6 WEEKS TO FIX. TO MY DISAPPOINMENT, HYUNDAI IS ONLY OFFERING 12K MILES OR ONE YEAR WARRANTY. THIS CAR HAS HAD SEVERAL RECALLS AND I HAVE BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALER FOR EVERY ONE OF THEM. I SPENT 30K ON THIS CAR (HYUNDAI SONATA 2.0T) LOVE THE LOOK OF IT BUT NOT RELIABLE. I HAVE SENT THEM A LETTER TO ASK FOR A BETTER WARRANTY ON THE "NEW" ENGINE THEY REPLACED.

TAKATA RECALL - CAR IS BLOWING OUT SMOKE - IN 700 MILES IT HAS LOST 2 QUARTS OF OIL, IT HAS UNDER 50K MILES, IT IS COVERED UNDER 2 DIFFERENT RECALLS THRU HYUNDAI BUT THEY REFUSE TO REPLACE THE ENGINE, WHEN YOU TRY TO ACCELERATE - THE CAR WILL HESITATE AND THEN ALL OF SUDDEN BLOW SMOKE OUT THE BACK - SO MUCH THAT YOU THINK THE CAR IS GOING TO CATCH ON FIRE, WE HAVE HAD IT IN THE DEALERSHIP 3 TIMES ALREADY - CONTACTED THEM OTHER TIMES IN BETWEEN. NOW WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE AT JUST 1 RPM SMOKE COMES OUT THE BACK CAR STARTS SHAKING LIKE ITS GOING TO STALL OUT CHECK ENGINGE LIGHT COMES ON - A FEW SECONDS LATER BIG CLOUD OF SMOKE COMES OUT BACK AND CAR WILL THEN MOVE LEAVING TRAILS OF SMOKE BEHIND. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WENT OFF. HYUNDAI SAID UNLESS THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON - IT WONT MATTER. THEY JUST WANT US TO DO A OIL CONSUMPTION TEST - THE ENGINE IS MAKING A KNOCKING NOISE. HYUNDAI HAS HEARD IT TOO. WE LEAVE SO MUCH SMOKE THAT WE CANT SEE A CAR BEHIND US. IT CAN BARELY MAKE IT TO ACCELERATE ON THE HIGHWAY. 6/21/17 - MASSEY HYUNDAI HAGERSTOWN 7/18/17 - MASSEY HYUNDAI HAGERSTOWN 8/28/17 - MASSEY HYUNDAI HAGERSTOWN HYUNDAI CASE #10553414 - THEY KNOW ABOUT IT! WE HAVE HAD IT TOWED TO THE SHOP 2 TIMES NOW.

WE WERE DRIVING TO HESPERIA IN THE POURING RAIN JUST PASSING THE CAJON PASS ON THE FREEWAY WHEN WE HEARD A KNOCKING COMING FROM THE ENGINE & MOVED OUR WAY OVER TO THE SLOW LANE & MADE OUR WAY OFF THE FREEWAY. UPON EXITING THE ENGINE COMPLETELY DIED WHILE WE WERE DRIVING & WOULD NOT RESTART. WE LUCKILY MADE OUR WAY OVER TO THE SHOULDER TO PULL OVER & HAD TO WAIT OVER 2 HOURS FOR A TOW TRUCK TO TOW US 62 MILES HOME.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HYUNDAI SONATA. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, WHILE THE CONTACT'S GRANDSON WAS DRIVING, THE FRONT AND REAR DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE HEADLIGHTS FLICKERED OFF AND ON WITHOUT WARNING.

THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND SENT A TOW TRUCK TO THE CONTACT'S RESIDENCE TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO THE LOCAL DEALER (BUERKLE HYUNDAI, 3350 HWY 61 N, ST.PAUL, MN 55110).

THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 39,000.

THE HEADLIGHTS AND BREAKLIGHTS ON THW PASSENGER SIDE OF VEHICLE KEEP BLOWING. I HAVE CHANGED THEM OUT SEVERAL TIMES AND NEED TO CHANGE MY BREAK LIGHT OUT AGAIN NOW. IT IS GETTING TO BE AN EXPENSIVE PROBLEM.

DRIVING AT 70 MPH THE CAR SEIZED UP. IT DID THIS 3 TIMES IN SIX MILES. SCARIEST EVENT I HAVE EVER HAD HAPPEN IN A VEHICLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HYUNDAI SONATA. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V226000 (ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING). THE DEALER (EASTERN SHORE HYUNDAI, 29736 FREDERICK BLVD, DAPHNE, AL 36526, (251) 626-6363) SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT FOR ROUTINE MAINTENANCE FOR SEPTEMBER 5, 2017 AND WAS TO CHECK TO DETERMINE IF THE REMEDY AND PARTS WERE AVAILABLE. THE DEALER DID NOT GIVE A SPECIFIC DATE FOR WHEN THE PART WOULD BECOME AVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED. THE CONTACT WAS NOT EXPERIENCING A FAILURE. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

OUR 2014 HYUNDAI SONATA GLS 4-DOOR SEDAN CAME EQUIPPED WITH KUMHO SOLUS KH 25 TIRES, SIZE 205/65R16. THE CAR HAS APPROXIMATELY 27,000 MILES. WHEN REMOVING A FLAT TIRE, I NOTICED THAT SMALL CHUNKS OF RUBBER WERE COMING OFF OF THE TIRE. I THEN CHECKED THE OTHER THREE TIRES & FOUND THE SAME PROBLEM. SOME OF THOSE RUBBER CHUNKS COMING OFF WERE ALONG THE EDGES & SOME WERE IN THE CENTRAL PART OF THE TIRES. I CALLED THE MANUFACTURER & WAS REFERRED TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER, KAUFFMAN TIRES IN THIS CARE. THEY CLAIMED THAT THIS IS NOT A WARRANTY ISSUE SO THEY STATED THAT NOTHING COULD BE DONE EXCEPT TO SELL ME NEW TIRES & OTHER CAR SERVICES. IT SEEMS TO ME THAT THIS IS ABNORMAL FOR TIRES TO BE FAILING AFTER ONLY APPROXIMATELY 27,000 MILES. SINCE I'M CONCERNED ABOUT SAFETY, I WILL BE REPLACING ALL FOUR TIRES BUT NOT WITH KUMHO TIRES. I CERTAINLY NEVER BUY THAT BRAND OF TIRE &, WILL CHECK TO SEE WHAT BRAND OF TIRES ARE ON ANY CAR THAT I WILL BUY IN THE FUTURE TO BE SURE THAT THEY AREN'T KUMHO TIRES

THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE, BUT HAD NOT REPLIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 55,000.

I ALSO HAVE TO REPLACE FRONT AND BACK LIGHT BULBS 3 OR 4 TIMES IN LESS THAN A YEAR. I WENT ONLINE AND THESE PROBLEMS SEEMED TO BE A RECURRENT COMPLAIN.

MY SAFETY ISSUE IS THAT MY VEHICLE WOULD NOT START UNLESS IT IS IN NEUTRAL OR IT WOULD NOT SHIFT AT ALL. IT HAPPENS WHEN I AM IN PARK OR WHEN I AM DRIVING IT IS IN DRIVE BUT GOES TO NEUTRAL ON ITS OWN. SO WHILE I DRIVE AND IT DOES THAT I HAVE TO SHIFT TO NEUTRAL AND THEN BACK TO DRIVE. SOMETIMES I WILL BE PARKED AND I TURN ON THE CAR AND IT WON'T SHIFT AT ALL. I HAVE TRIED TO TAKE IT IN AND I HAVE CALLED THE MANUFACTURE AND NO ONE THINKS IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE THEY KEEP GIVING ME THE RUN AROUND. I HAVE TAKEN IT IN AND THEY TOLD ME THAT IT WAS NOT LISTED ON MY APPOINTMENT. SHOULDN'T THAT BE PRIORITY?

I HAVE SPOKEN TO THE DEALER MULTIPLE TIMES REGARDING MANUFACTURER RECALL NUMBER162. THE DEALER'S ONLY RESPONSE IS THAT THEY HAVE NO IDEA HOW TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM, SO I HAVE TO WAIT. CONSIDERING THAT THIS ISSUE MAY CAUSE THE ENGINE TO SEIZE AT ANY TIME, I DON'T FIND THIS TO BE ACCEPTABLE.
