2014 Hyundai Sonata complaints

The contact owns a 2014 Hyundai Sonata. The contact stated while driving 40 MPH, there was an abnormal knocking sound coming from the engine. The accelerator pedal was depressed; however, the vehicle failed to respond. The contact was able to continue to drive to her residence. There was no warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer who diagnosed the failure as a rod bearing failure with the engine. The contact was informed that the engine needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 120,000.

I brought my 2014 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid in for the 964- AUXILIARY CANISTER INSTALLION & 966- ENGINE MONITORING LOGIC Service recall campaigns on 12/08/21. Today, 12/21/21, in heavy traffic on the highway, my car engine abruptly shuts off, immediately decelerating, completely losing any ability to accerate while the engine light, parking break light come on along with an "electric motor warning - safely pull over and do not drive" message on the dashboard. All this happens while a high pitch alarm goes off. All happening simultaneously without warning on the highway with vehicles surrounding us driving 70 mph! This has never happened prior to today and should never happen. How we managed to avoid an accident or worse was a miracle. This was life threatening and should not be taken lightly!

Vehicle died while driving on the highway had to pull over and have the car towed. Hyaundai dealership diagnosed it as a bad engine bearing which was part of an open and active recall which they confirmed. Hyaundai advised it is part of a recall that is still open but stated we didn’t come soon enough so they refuse to fix it. We never received the recall notice and the recall is still open and active.

Engine needs to be replaced, engine light, brake light and loud ticking sound in engine

I purchased this car on November 17th, it started giving me trouble on November 25th so i parked it. The problem was it started making a really loud noise and started to slow down in mid traffic while i was driving. i had to bear to the side of the road to avoid a car crash. i think it’s the motor , i’ve purchased a brand new battery and starter and neither of those was the problem. my car have been sitting every since the 25th i need to know what’s wrong with my vehicle beside the recalls i have on it!

While driving the Warning in my dash appeared Check Brake Hybrid System Warning safely stop and do not drive. The front brakes sounded like they were rubbing against my tire. I stopped the car. Pushed emergency brake off and on (I’ve never had to use this before) turned car back on and it stopped. I’m worried it will happen again.

The contact owns a 2014 Hyundai Sonata. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the seat belt pre-tensioner warning light illuminated. The contact stated that on 11/15/2021, the seat belt pre-tensioner warning light turned off independently. The contact called the local dealer and made them aware of the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer had not been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 32,000.

As I was driving down the road , my light start flickering. Then immediately go out and wont come back on. No warning light came on. My light stating my trunk was open came on but my trunk was not open and the tire pressure light came on but normally it states which tire and that didn't happen either. Nothing was wrong with the tires either. I had them check.

Sept 30, 2021 I was driving home on the highway with a speed limit Of 65mph, I was in the far left lane when my car started slowing down and all of my MIL's lit up the dashboard. I started panicking stepping on the gas pedal to speed up because of the traffic but I was unable to. But i managed to pull over to the shoulder then I turned off the car, waited a few minutes, then started the car back up. I proceeded off the exit managing only 35mph max speed. I had someone check my car And they found out I was low by 2 qts of oil. But prior to this I had just had my oil changed 1 month before. The car has 116100 mi on the odometer. The next day I contacted my local Hyundai dealership and was told I will need to have the car towed to them at that location. I was also told the time frame for someone to look at my car and repair would be 90 days turn around time. They advised me to contact other surrounding Hyundai dealerships. I contacted the another dealership and was told that I needed an appointment and I was scheduled to bring my car in a week later. My car has been at the dealership since 10/5/21. On oct 8th I was told they needed to perform a complete engine diagnostic, and a bearing clearance test to determine if the bearings have failed which results in internal engine failure. Which turned out to be a P1326 code. They also informed me that the engine would need to be replaced but would need it authorized by corporate. This is the message I received from Hyundai personnel: "

The contact owns a 2014 Hyundai Sonata. The contact stated that while driving at 65 MPH at nighttime, the turn signal switch was engaged, and the headlights inadvertently turned off. There were no warning lights illuminated. The contact stated that he was able to turn on the high beams by engaging the high beam switch. The dealer was made aware of the failure but informed the contact that they would be able to diagnose the vehicle in four weeks. The dealer also advised the contact that the turn signal switch needed to be replaced. The contact also contacted a second unknown dealer who also advised the contact that the turn signal switch needed to be replaced; however, the earliest availability was in a couple of weeks. The contact stated that the failure had been reoccurring while driving. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic and the turn signal switch was replaced. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure but did not provide any assistance. A case was opened. The vehicle was repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 97,200.

Engine failed spun bearing. Hyundai said they will not cover their defective engine.

When driving at night headlights, and all lights goes off.(I do not drive much after dark, but this needs to be addressed). It has happened a few times this past year, thought it was me, yet my daughter used the car and she had it happened 4 or 5 times.Sometimes it happens when you use directional lights. No warning when it happens, which is very dangerous .There is only less than 68,000 miles. Supposed to be under warranty 100,000 miles or 10 years, yet I am told I have to pay $150.00 to do diagnostic which may not be solving the problem which is not fair. Looking online there are many complaints of this on this year and model. Asked the manufacturer when will they do a recall? After someone gets killed?

My 2014 Hyundai Sonata shut off while I was driving twice. There is evidence of a knocking sound. Three different mechanics mentioned a possible recall from 2017 but my car wasn't serviced for it.

The contact owns a 2014 Hyundai Sonata. The contact stated that the electrical system had failed to operate as needed both inside and outside of the vehicle. The contact stated that the taillights had failed to illuminate upon depression of the brake pedal, while the interior lights would flicker. Additionally, the headlights would also flicker while in operation without warning. Additionally, the contact stated that an abnormal clanking sound was coming from the vehicle without warning while making left turns. The contact had taken the vehicle to the dealer where they informed her that there were no recalls on the vehicle. The manufacturer had yet to be notified of the failure. The vehicle had yet to be repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 63,000.

The acceleration and, subsequently, the engine failed while on the freeway. All warning lights came on. This was a high-risk and potentially very dangerous situation to be on the freeway and have your vehicle suddenly lose power. The car was towed by AAA to a nearby service center. The mechanic there, as well as the AAA mechanic, both identified the engine issue and were aware of the current recall issue. They instructed to tow it to a dealer. It sat at an off-site lot owned by the Kearney Mesa Hyundai dealership for over a month, requiring car rental fees in excess of $1,000, before it was even diagnosed as an engine failure. But now, it still hasn't been approved by Hyundai Motor America for an engine replacement. First, I was told that they needed maintenance records. I provided those, plus all the recall notices I had received related to this, and for which I had brought the vehicle in for. They said the maintenance records weren't sufficient to reach a final decision. I was told by the dealership that they have asked them "to take pictures of the valve train, which requires them to remove the valve cover and order additional parts to reinstall in the event the engine is not approved." I don't understand this lengthy process -- and making me jump through hoops -- considering Hyundai is already under a concent order and subject to a total civil penalty of $140 million for its untimely handling of these engine recalls in the first place. Their website says: "Hyundai is comm

The car looses power the rpm want get above 2 and now it want crank

The fuel feed line connecting the low pressure fuel pump to the direct injection fuel pump connector has develop a small crack over time due to ambient heat in the engine compartment. A damaged fuel line could allow fuel to leak increasing the risk of an engine compartment fire. The only way i notice is because my state inspection did not pass to this reason and i am not sure when the fuel line connector started leaking this could have cause major fire if i would have not found out about it. i talked to hyundai dealership and they have said they dont consider this recall or anything and just to get it fixed but they are telling me the whole line fuel will need to be replaced and its also backorder that it will take a month or maybe more to get part in and fixed. and because of this issue i dont have a car to drive anymore because safety concerns on driving vehicle.

2014 Hyundai Sonata ([XXX]) 137,000 miles engine stalled at 70 mph on interstate. Loss of power to entire vehicle in heavy traffic. No warning lights or early indications of problems. The event caused 2 cars to leave roadway to avoid crashing. After getting to emergency lane the engine started back up with no malfunction indicator lamps or check engine light. Completed the remaining 5 mile trip at slow speed with the vehicle stalling once again as I was parking. This vehicle had recalls and never received any information regarding them. Hyundai denied engine replacement for not having knock sensor update performed. Purchased the car on February 7, 2017 and took car to dealership on August 21,2018 because of no brake lights. They performed inspection on 2 recalls that I was not aware of because I received no information on. The dealership never mentioned an open service campaign regarding a knock sensor update (Remedy date August 9,2018) that could have warned me of these problems and extended the engine warranty to a lifetime warranty. INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

The contact owns a 2014 Hyundai Sonata. The contact received a recall notification for NHTSA Campaign Number: 20V121000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE), however, the Ford dealer he purchased the vehicle from informed him that she would need to contact a Hyundai dealer to schedule a recall repair appointment. The contact stated while his wife was parking the vehicle in the driveway, the gas pedal was not depressed however the vehicle accelerated on its own and crashed into the garage door. There were no warning lights illuminated. The contact sustained injuries on the right knee but did not seek medical assistance.

Driving in the early AM darkness went to turn on my bights and my headlights and every other light went out leaving me moving at 60+ miles an hour in complete darkness on a highway. Headlights also flickering intermittently and at times when I try use my turn signal. Baffled at how this has not been recalled. This is a deadly manufacturer defect.

The contact owns a 2014 Hyundai Sonata. The contact stated that while his son was driving 30 MPH, the check engine warning light illuminated the instrument panel with an abnormal clicking sound coming from the engine. The contact towed the vehicle to an independent mechanic who informed him that the vehicle was no longer safe to be driven. The contact then called a dealer and had the vehicle towed to the dealer for a diagnostic test. The contact was informed that the engine had failed and that the dealer needed approval from the manufacturer to replace the engine. The contact was called back and informed that they would not be able to service the vehicle because the vehicle had a salvage title. The contact then called the manufacturer directly and was given the same information. The vehicle had yet to be repaired and remained in the possession of the dealer. The failure mileage was approximately 79,000. From contact: Hyundai National has been extremely uncooperative. It was explained to them that the vehicle was about to prove fatal to his son, but none of the executives (to which the contact reached via email) replied via email. The case manager was rude and said she is the ultimate authority to make any decision and she has made a decision that Hyundai will not cover the repair of the vehicle. It should be noted that the salvage title of the vehicle had nothing to do with the engine. It was hit at the rear right due to which the vehicle was salvaged. Similar problems have h

Went to start my car-ignition locked,brakes are locked along with steering wheel.having a tow company to get my car to auto mechanic to figure out the problem.Worked fine day before-has been parked in driveway for about 13 hours prior,-no messages appeared -this is the first time ever happened.

Fuel delivery has intermittent pull when driving. This has been ongoing & had been mentioned from independent service center back in May. It Occurs at different speed levels when gas pedal is pushed, a hesitancy occurs like a sputter.

Tail lights continually kept burning out. Eventually, after a few installs, tht last one melted requiring they full assembly to be replaced. The first side went out on the right a couple of years prior, this year the left side did the same thing. The smell of burning was noticed, and found the cause from the tail light.

My engine cut out on me driving down the interstate and my check engine light started flashing. After getting my car off the road safely but barley I turned it off and turned it back on and check engine light still flashing and now my car will not proceed higher than 2000 rpm or over 60 mph. Took my car to a shop and the ran scanner and it came back as knock sensor. That was replaced and my car did the same thing after driving it about 2 miles. They ran the scan codes again and this time it came back as VVT solenoid. That was replaced but while replacing the solenoid When took out there was copper/metal shavings on the solenoid. Doing further investigation on this it is shown that the car of the same year make and model I have has had recall for engine failure for the bearings which would cause the shavings on my solenoid but my car is not under the recall but having the same exact problem.

Dear Sir/Madam, I bought the vehicle in 2016 from a local dealer, unknown to me that the vehicle had a branded/salvage title. After driving for a few years, about a month and half ago, while driving the engine just stalled on me. After having back and forth with Hyundai National Team and Hyundai Corporate, they denied my warranty claim that because its a salvaged title. The engine is original and was not tempered with as confirmed my Local Hyundai Dealer. Hyundai has currently recalled about 1.6 Million vehicles due to premature bearing wear and potential engine failure issue. The vehicle currently has 65,000 miles on it, and the engine breakdown is an internal failure. Having a salvage title should not be a reason to deny the claim especially when its not a cosmetic problem but an engine failure itself. Spending $6,000 - $8,000 on a new engine is completely unaffordable for me. I will appreciate any help you can provide after I have been suffering without car for almost 2 months in these difficult COVID times.

Engine caught fire due to recall not complete, after taking it to mechanic to replace the fire damaged fuel line and engine wire harness, engine somehow lost compression and wouldn't start. Oil level and oil were good, engine started making knocking noise before catching fire. Manufacturer is refusing recall for the engine.

I WAS DRIVING 70 MILES PER HOUR WHEN MY CAR STARTED SLOWING DOWN AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WENT ON. I COULD NOT GO MORE THAN 40 MILES PER HOUR ON THE FREEWAY. MY ENGINE STARTED MAKING A KNOCKING NOISE THAT EVENTUALLY CUT THE ENGINE OFF. I was told that the engine has a lifetime warranty according to the Hyundai Motor America and Kia Motors America Resolve Engine Litigation [https://www.hyundainews.com/en-us/releases/2883]. I am unable to get in contact with Hyundai.

Engine shut off without warning on the freeway

Break light harness was burning around the socket. Caught on time could of caused a fire and serious injury to me and my children. This should be recalled as it is known to be an issue with most of this model vehicle.

My brake light went out and it must of caused a shirt cause it then melt a portion of the plastic from the light assembly.

On 06/29/21 10am, I was entering Hwy 287 NO. from Hwy 80's Mawah exit. I accelerated from 50 MPH to 65 MPH, the engine shuts down. I was able to pull over to the shoulder. After a few minutes, I put the car in park and the engine restarted. I drove the car towards the next exit, then the engine shuts off again. I called AAA and I am waiting right now for the car to be towed. This is a very dangerous safety issue.

On 06/11/2021, I visited Hyundai Harrisonburg, VA service center to perform some recalls as per the attached documents. I was told that the engine is covered by a lifetime warranty and they didn't charge me anything. They performed recall #162 for the engine problem & installed a special software to monitor the knocking problem. They didn't open the engine to check the crank or the bearing wear. They asked me to keep an eye on the engine and if any thing happens, I could return back immediately to them. Only after 6 days, smoke started to go out of the exhaust and I couldn't drive the vehicle over 40 MPH. I drove the vehicle to them and left it for a week. After a week; when I called them, they told me that the engine needs to be changed with a new one but they couldn't contact Hyundai USA to send them a new engine because the car was driven more than 120K miles as per Hyundai rule (10 years/120K miles). I told the service center manager that it's a lifetime warranty according to the Hyundai Motor America and Kia Motors America Resolve Engine Litigation [https://www.hyundainews.com/en-us/releases/2883] He said that Hyundai should approve it to replace the engine and I should contact them for approval. So I contacted NHTSA to get me that approval instead of wasting my time explaining the litigation. I couldn't drive the vehicle since then because of the heavy smoke. I towed it from the Service Center to my home and submitted the complaint. I consulted 2 mechanics who advised m

Dash cracking severely over Airbags...Hyundai refuses to address the problem even though they had a PRIOR RECALL for the Same Issue. The Spiderweb Cracking is severe enough I am concerned my airbags will deploy without warning. Leather in Limited Model Seats Cracks and Disintegrates so badly the Power Motor and Components are exposed and compromised.

2014 Hyundai Sonata, 65500 miles. Engine seized while driving on the highway. Complete loss of power. Car would not start after the incident. Hyundai dealership won't have time to diagnose the car for 1.5 to 2 months and won't provide a loaner or rental car. Likely several additional months after they look at it to get a new engine.

3rd Brake light. The tailgate light that is in the rear middle inside the vehicle goes off and the bulb base is melting due to heat. It's available for inspection upon request. Moreover, it's a known problem in many models of my vehicle. This light is a part of the safety inspection in my state VA which means it's important to have it working all the time. If the vehicle driver behind me doesn't notice that I'm in a stopping process or pressing on the brake paddle, both of us will be at risk especially on the high way. Yes the problem was confirmed by Hyundai and many service centers confirmed it. There was also a recall regarding this problem but didn't solve it permanently. It happened again and service centers don't fix those affected vehicles again. Since there was a recall before, this component was inspected and confirmed by the manufacturer. They should keep fixing it till they find a permanent solution or change the part with a better one like LED for example to reduce heat. There was no warning lamp, message, or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure. It's discovered when someone behind the affected vehicle warns me or the traffic police stops me. This is the most important brake light because at night it's the only light that warns other vehicles drivers behind me that's I'm reducing the speed or in a stop status since other right and left stop lights are shared with normal tailgate lights and might not warn others. This 3rd brake light is high enough to

Tail light melting replacement of the assembly required.

Break lights continue to burn out. In the 5 yrs I've had the vehicle this is a constant issue. I've taken the vehicle to Balise Hyundai replacing the Bulbs multiple times and replaced one Harness. Today both break lights had to have a full assembly replacement, including harness and the bulbs melted the plastic. The passenger break light even exploded that's how overheated it became. There have been no indication when these lights burn out. I've always had a stranger, neighbor, family or friend alert me that one of my lights were out. 4/26/21 a stranger driving behind pulled up next to me to alert me my tail lights were out. Not knowing break lights out is a safety hazard whether driving on street or highway. The back window has an additional light that has continued to work. In the last 3 years my driving was reduced more than 60% as I relocated to work from home. The vehicle was serviced today 6/2/21 at Hiley Hyundai who performed the most recent inspection and diagnostic on the vehicle, as well as performed the repairs.

MY STEERING SYSTEM IS LOOSE AND MAKE THE CAR HARD TO CONTROL AT TIMES. I HAVE HAD A FRONT END ALIGNMENT DONE WHICH HAS NOT HELPED. I HAVE HYUNDAI ABOUT THE PROBLEM BUT HAVE NOT GOTTEN ANY HELP IN THIS PROBLEM. I UNDERSTAND THE THE STEERING WHEEL COUPLER IS MADE OF PLASTIC. THIS PROBLEM HAPPENS ON ANY STREET OR HIGHWAY.

WHAT SEEMS TO BE RANDOM AND WITHOUT PROVOCATION, THE CAR WILL SOUND A BEEPING ALARM THAT ONLY SOUNDS ON THE INTERIOR, IT WILL DEACTIVATE THE ACCELERATOR (BASICALLY PUTS THE CAR IN NEUTRAL), AND WILL DISPLAY A WARNING MESSAGE THAT READS "HYBRID SYSTEM WARNING! SAFELY STOP AND DO NOT DRIVE. CHECK BRAKE". NO MATTER WHAT SPEED THE CAR IS TRAVELING AT, IT CAN UNDERGO THIS PROBLEM. IF BRAKES ARE APPLIED DURING THIS ISSUE, IT WILL SOUND AS IF THE BRAKES ARE GRINDING AND ARE NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY. THE ISSUE CAN ONLY BE RESOLVED BY PUTTING THE VEHICLE IN PARK, TURNING OFF THE VEHICLE, AND RESTARTING IT. IF THIS IS DONE, THE CAR IS BACK TO 'NORMAL' FUNCTION. IT HAS CERTAINLY BEEN A SAFETY HAZARD AS IT HAS DONE IT MULTIPLE TIMES IN BUMPER TO BUMPER TRAFFIC WHILE TRAVELING AT HIGHER RATES OF SPEED, AND THE CAR STALLS OUT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FREEWAY. THE HYUNDAI SERVICE DEPARTMENT HAS FOUND NO ISSUE AFTER RUNNING DIAGNOSTICS, AND SAYS THERE IS NOTHING THAT CAN BE DONE TO REMEDY THE ISSUE OVERALL. I WOULD ESTIMATE THIS EXACT ISSUE HAS OCCURRED APPROXIMATELY 20 TIMES, PERIODICALLY, OVER THE LAST 6 MONTHS.

MY VEHICLE DIDN'T PASS SAFETY INSPECTION DUE TO THE BRAKES GOING ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR WHEN PRESSED. HYUNDAI CASE NUMBER #16939771 WAS CREATED AND IT WAS TAKEN TO TONY HYUNDAI IN WAIPIO HAWAII TO BE SERVICED. THE ACTIVE HYDRAULIC BOOSTER WAS FOUND FAULTY AND REPLACED THEY STATED ALL WAS FINE BUT PEDAL WILL STILL TOUCH THE FLOOR AND BRAKE SENSITIVITY IS EXTREMELY HIGH CAUSING FULL ONSET OF BRAKES WHILE DRIVING AT FREEWAY SPEEDS. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND HAS NEARLY CAUSE ME TO LOSE CONTROL AT HIGH SPEEDS SEVERAL TIMES. I AM UNABLE TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE ON THE FREEWAY.

MY VEHICLES ENGINE WAS REPLACED IN OCTOBER 2020 FOR A SUDDEN ENGINE STALL. NOW 5 MONTHS LATER A GAS SMELL HAS COME UP VERY QUICK AND STRONG. MY INITIAL SEARCH OF MY VIN NUMBER DID NOT INCLUDE MY VEHICLE IN A CURRENT OPEN RECALL. AS I SEARCHED FURTHER THROUGH THE NHSTA SITE FOR THE COMPLAINT SECTION AND WAS PROMOTED AGAIN TO ENTER VIN NUMBER IS WHEN I CAN SEE MY VEHICLE SHOULD BE ELIGIBLE DUE TO MY ENGINE HAVING TO BE RECALLED AND REPLACED WITH FAULTY INSTALLATION. POSSIBLY CAUSING MY VEHICLE TO HAVE A FUEL LINE LEAK DUE TO A PINCHED OR COMPROMISED INSTALLATION FROM ENGINE REPLACEMENT. THE FIRST SMELL OF GAS CAME ON THIS EVENING AFTER A 100 MILE DRIVE VEHICLE WAS PARKED AND NOW 6 HOURS LATER RESTARTING VEHICLE THE SMELL IS OVERWHELMING AND DEFINITELY A DANGER AND CAUSE FOR CONCERN. THIS 2014 MODEL HAS HAD SO MANY ISSUES AND SHOULD JUST BE RECALLED AND TRADED IN.
