2015 Hyundai Sonata complaints

This is the third time this has happened. The car just starts to beep and stops working wherever it is. Its died on the highway and another busy road during rush hour causing a dangerous backup in which the police needed to be called. The car just beeps and flashes on the dash "Hybrid System Warning! Safety Stop and Do not Drive". Also, "check charging system". The car just stops and basically dies on the road when this light comes. When this happens the steering wheel does not really work and the gas/breaks have limited function. This could cause a major accident on a major highway or even off of a highway. I am quite surprised that there has not been a recall for this serious safety concern.

There was a recall on my car maybe a year ago for an issue with the turn signals. The driver might turn on the right turn signal but the car would show the left turn signal to other drivers. I had the recall work (software update) done at my local Hyundai dealership several months ago. Since then, I have a new issue with the turn signals/headlights. When the headlights are in "auto" mode at night, turning on the turn signal causes the headlights to turn off. The headlights don't turn back on until you straighten out the wheel. This is a major safety concern because for a few seconds, I can't see anything and other drivers can't see me. I have researched this on Google and found several other Hyundai Sonata owners (different years) with the same issue. See links below: https://www.hyundai-forums.com/threads/flickering-intermittent-headlights-and-interior-lights.282777/ https://www.hyundai-forums.com/threads/headlights-flash-off-and-on.644549/ I have made numerous attempts to contract Hyundai customer care regarding this issue but they do not return calls or provide any assistance. I believe this issue should be a recall as it is a major safety concern, but no one at Hyundai seems to care. Hyundai has told me multiple times that if I pay out of pocket for this now ($636) and it becomes a recall later, there is no guarantee that I will be reimbursed, which I'm not even sure is correct.

The power steering started malfunctioning and then caused all warning lights on the dash to illuminate including check engine, power steering, abs, and after coming to a stop and waiting several minutes the lights went off but power steering was still not operating correctly

My car has 113,000 miles and the engine went out going down the highway with my young daughter in the car. This could have been a disaster if someone would have been behind us. After researching about my issues I found almost all their motors are going out or catching fire. Someone needs to hold them accountable. My car has been in the shop for weeks now with no approval from Hyundai. My daughter almost died last year in a car wreck. What if someone’s engine goes out with someone behind them. Someone could lose a life. This is serious.

The contact owns a 2015 Hyundai Sonata. The contact stated while driving 45 MPH, there was a knocking sound coming from the vehicle with the check engine warning light illuminated before the vehicle lost motive power and stalled. The contact pulled over and waited until the vehicle cool down and was able to restart the vehicle, but the failure reoccurred. The vehicle was towed to the dealer and the contact was informed that the spark plugs needed to be replaced. The spark plugs were replaced; however, the failure reoccurred. The dealer informed the contact that the engine needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was contacted and stated that the warranty had expired and offered no further assistance. The failure mileage was 183,096. The contact noted that they are the second owner of the vehicle. Also, the vehicle had never been serviced prior to taking it to a dealer to fix the knocking sound.

2015 HYUNDAI SONATA. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARD TO EXCESSIVELY BURNING OIL. THE CONSUMER STATED THE VEHICLE IS BURNING 1QUART OF OIL MUCH MORE FREQUENTLY THAN EACH 1,000 MILES AND HAS TO CONSISTENTLY CHECK THE OIL LEVEL OF THE VEHICLE.

The bug guard/wind deflector has become detached (AGAIN) on my panoramic sunroof while driving on the freeway. It puts myself & passengers as well as other people driving on the freeway in danger as there is a known issue that the detached bug guard/wind deflector is what causes detaching window panels or shattered sunroof panels. I took my vehicle to the Dealership in Salt Lake City, UT for a repair on the bug guard and was told since it had been repaired before through the original recall, they would not repair it again. (the fix is loctite super glue). I asked about my warranty on the panoramic sunroof and they told me that it only covers the glass and I would need to pay $160.00 for the diagnosis of the detached bug guard. - which can be seen by opening the sunroof. I spoke with the service manager of the dealership as the simple fix of super glue is much less expensive than fixing my glass and he told me it since the repair had already been made on the original recall that they would do nothing if the glass wasn't broken. There was no warning lamp or other symptoms, it just suddenly became detached while driving on the freeway.

Told the Hyundai dealer 2 years(March 2021) ago that I was concerned about my oil light flashing periodically between scheduled oil changes. No action other than oil changes and one time they added a couple of quarts "no charge" as it again was low. Continued to change oil more often than necessary and the frequency increased. Multiple other car repairs have been happening and the oil now has to be added weekly to maintain proper amounts. Had to change spark plugs 2 times with in 5 months and now another engine light came on today 11/15, and when I check the code at a parts store I was told is was a P03001 and P03002 which was something to do again with the cylinders misfiring. Everyone I have spoke to says this is an engine issue and it is under recall. I did place a claim with Hyundai Care USA after being told by the dealer that it would be better if I did this instead of them. The assistant manager also confirmed that the engine is covered 100%. I did this in September after the second repairs. The Regional Manager finally called me back and indicated he agreed about the problem needing to be resolved and would call me after he spoke to the dealer in a day or two. It has been over a week and no one has called. I keep leaving messages. I now have the same error codes, it is November 15 and the spark plugs were all changed less than 2 months ago for the exact same reason. I have been stranded and at times when I accelerate onto traffic the car will not respond. I do not use

The contact owns a 2015 Hyundai Sonata. The contact stated while driving approximately 3 mph and entering a driveway, the vehicle accelerated independently and crashed into a metal gate. The contact stated no warning light was illuminated. The contact stated no air bags were deployed. The contact stated no one was injured nor sought medical attention. The contact did not contact the police department nor filed a police report. The vehicle was not drivable and was left at the locations of the incident. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired.

I have approximately 54k on my vehicle and took it to Pep Boys (Lake Forest, Ca) last week for oil change. They state that my front axle (CV Axle) needs to be replaced because it is leaking grease. They state their replacement is a brand-new part. Less than a year ago my husband took his car to V-Tech Automotive who cited the same repair for his vehicle, the same year, make, and model (2015 Hyundai Sonata SE, Vin# 5NPE24AF6FH205523), at that time his vehicle had only 26,661 miles. My husband called to Hyundai Motor America this week because we have had in the past several other vehicles varying makes (Honda, Toyota, and Mazda) but never in hundreds of thousands of miles driven was such a repair ever needed. Now both of our vehicles with exceptionally low mileage both need to have the front axles replaced. The Supervisor Justin (Hyundai Motor America, Fountain Valley, CA) on 11/2/22 gave him a case number 20531055 and stated that he will receive a call back from a case manager, today (11/4/22) he received the called back from a case manager Cierra. Her position is the same as the first phone call to their customer service a couple days earlier, is that we pay for the diagnostic ($179) and repair ($1140 each vehicle, diagnostic deducted if work is done there) at only a Hyundai Dealership and maybe after the fact they will make a “Good Will Reimbursement”, but they will not approve that beforehand and may not approve it at all. Though there is a 5-year warranty or 60K whichever

I had 26,661 miles on my vehicle and took it to V-Tech Auto (Lake Forest, Ca) for brake service on 12/11/21 when I was told by the Manager Adele that my front axle was leaking grease and needed to be replaced. My wife’s vehicle (same 2015 Hyundai Sonata SE with 54k miles) was found to have the exact same issue by another repair shop Pep Boys in Lake Forest, CA on 10/23/22 (reported today, please see her complaint Vin# 5NPE24AF7FH18963). Adele from V-Tech stated that my front axle (CV Axle) needs to be replaced because it is leaking grease.

2015 Hyundai Sonata 2.4L Hybrid with 35,333 miles has a broken front driver's side strut spring. Contacted Hyundai corporate and was told there is no recall on this year model. Dealer has been contacted regarding repair and they cannot inspect car till Dec. After research this looks the same as NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V629000 (SUSPENSION). There were no warning indicators and I had noticed a noise and the feeling of suspension issue coming from the front driver's side. Broken spring was found by jacking up the front driver's side wheel.

Intake actuator for camshift seal failed. Internal oil seal plug is leaking. There is a recall for this already but Hyundai is telling me recall is not attached to my VIN so they are refusing to fix it. my make model year is 2015 Hyundai Sonata 2.4l. Engine light is on. It is unsafe to drive as engine revs extremely high, and when I take my foot off break engine lurches forward. This is a safety issue making car unsafe to drive. I have been fighting with Hyundai for 6 weeks now, and they still refuse due to national recall in place, is not attached to my VIN. Please attach recall to my vin as this is exact issue I am having.

My battery,oil and check engine light came on. The car would not start, took it to the dealer they had my car 3 weeks and they said they couldn’t pull any codes because it started up. However, they did charge the battery. I drove the car a few day and the same thing Happened where the same codes came on and car wouldn’t start. I had to find a ride to work and when I got home and started the car it started right up. I have also read plenty of reviews claiming this same things has happened to them.

Strong odor of gasoline noticed after driving vehicle and smell remained present for a few hours after ending the drive. Found out that many drivers for the Hyundai Sonata and Kia Optima have had same complaints and the issue is a component of the fuel pump that is cracked. Traced it back to my vehicle, and that in fact is the problem. Since gas is combustible, this is a seriously dangerous defect.

Paint peeled off hood, initially causing a distraction while driving, while it fluttered, then when departing the hood it stuck to the windshield causing a visibility issue before using the wipers to remove it. Dealer said it's a known issue with this paint color, but said the warranty period was over.

The manufacturer had not been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.

The truck button has disintegrated twice now and needs a manufacturers recall.

My engine failed and was repaired under a campaign recall. Tim Short in Pikeville ky kept my vehicle 3 months to install new engine. Check engine light came on on the way home the day I picked it up. Made appointments to go back and have it checked and they said catalytic converter was clogging up but it would be my responsibility to fox it at my cost. Asked If it would be safe to drive oh yes you may lose a little Power over time but should be fine. Left the dealership and didn't make it home the car started vibrating and shit down got it started back and barely made it to a place to pull off. Car had no power, smoke boiling out of engine and exhaust. Dealership and hyundai refused to cover having it towed back. This last engine was the 3rd engine put in this vehicle due to recalls and this one didn't even make it 3 weeks . There is definitely an engine problem with hyuandi.. inhav been left without a vehicle for 3 months and have to have it towed back again at my cost. I wasn't even given a rental while it was being repaired. The car has 121,000 miles but has had 3 failed engines. Something needs to be done.

The engine is consuming excessive oil. My vehicle is available for inspection The problem has been confirmed by an oil service company Valvoline in Munster, Indiana The "oil" lamp appeared on my dashboard for a brief moment. I filed claim with BBB Arbitration for the Hyundai Theta Engine Recall but since my engine hasn't blown up, they will probably deny it. Case # HEE2220129 Jump vs Hyundai Theta Engine Settlement Extended My engine is consuming a quart of oil every 3oo miles or less. 1)12/15/2021 – Oil is off stick. Mileage is 101,230 Oil services, based on being “Offstick” resulted in new oil filter and engine cleaner. 4/25/22 – Oil is off stick. Mileage is 103,003. Only 1,773 miles between the oil changes. 7/11/2022 – Oil is off stick. Mileage is 104,423. Only 1,420 miles between the oil changes I contacted Webb Hyundai in Merrillville, Indiana for a recall that needed to be performed. I subsequently contacted Hyundai Customer Service and informed them of my oil consumption problem. Given a PA Case number and told to ask Webb Hyundia to perform an oil consumption test. 7/28/2022 Webb Hyunda They indicated that they added ½ quart of oil to my car I requested it to be added. A ½ quart of oil on 7/28 after I had 3 quarts of oil added on 7/11/2022. Being at “at stick” level results is terrifying as my engine could combust. Plus the additional costs of cleaning out the engine as well. Please refer to Webb Hyundai Vehicle Inspection Report for more details pages 1-5. NOTE: The

The vehicle is used as a commuter car, and driven primarily on NJ Turnpike at high speed. Over a two month period, on four occasions, the engine has shut off. All dash lights came on, and all power assist controls failed. Managed to get to shoulder of road, and after a few minutes, car would restart and run properly. The fourth time it happened, as I coasted onto shoulder, the car restarted by itself. Took car to dealer for diagnosis and repair and was told there were no codes and it "could be" any number of parts not working properly, but no actual diagnosis. Was charged $160 dollars, and I took vehicle home. But when I looked over the invoice, I found the description of problem was not what I had told service rep, so went back to talk to service manager. He told me to bring it back in and he would have it rechecked. Was told they drove car 35 miles a day but it never stalled. However, invoice shows same mileage went brought in and sent out. Again, they said they could find no codes, so they could not diagnose any problem. I went and picked vehicle up, but I drove through the dealer's parking lot to leave, I saw the engine service light was now illuminated, and returned the car to the service department. Was told they would check it out, and I went home. After three weeks, I called to find out status of car. Was informed they had yet to look at it, but would do so shortly. A week later I was told problem was a bad VCM Motor Assembly, and I was charged 788.70 dollars, to repl

While I was driving, my check engine light came on. It wasn’t flashing so I was going to continue driving to a parts house (because the dealerships around me were closed) and have them check the codes that were present. Immediately after I had that thought, I noticed the car was smoking and the battery light and the traction control light had come on, so I proceeded to pull over and shut the vehicle off. I got out and noticed the hood had soot on the edges. I called 911 and watched the car go up I’m flames. This all happened in less than a mile. I noticed a fluid of some sort had sprayed out of my vehicle onto the road and the underneath the vehicle was coated in the fluid. This is still being investigated but I know of a lot of Hyundai/Kia vehicles have caught on fire while driving. I’m not 100% sure of the cause yet, but I want to document that this did happen to my vehicle. I would love to update as soon as we figure out what has caused the car to catch fire while I was driving.

On aug 18 i was driving on the interstate at 80 mph , suddenly i could no use my gas pedal it lost power , the engine and oil flashed lucky i was able to get my car pulled over out of harms way and called a tow truck , i had it towed to my nearest Hyundai dealership ,on september 22 my car was denied for engine replacement due to me being the second owner , i've only had this car a year , i would like to warn any one with a Hyundai to take caution because their is no warning signs until it happening .

My power steering light came on last night when I arrived from work on Saturday night. Was hoping to take it in to be looked at but the dealership I bought it from is closed till Monday at 10. Woke up Sunday for work decided to see if the light was still on but it was off but about 7 minutes into the the light came back on along with the abs light, engine light, and oil light. I believe a couple more lights came on but not sure which ones but the car stopped working and starting completely

My vehicle experienced a sudden loss of power steering a few days ago, with approx 52,000 miles on the odometer. At the time it happened, two warning lights came on and remained on: a red steering wheel with an exclamation point, and an orange ESC control (icon: car with squiggles underneath) light. For a few days if I turned the car off and back on, the power steering would return and the warning lights would turn off. However today the car started with the lights on and no power steering and it appears to be permanently failed at this time. There is a recall issued for 2015 Sonatas for a power steering issue that sounds identical but my VIN does not appear to be included. My local dealership has no appointments available until November 8th and I have been informed that new power steering components will cost over $2500.

The issue is with the hybrid system, which malfunctioned and apparently ruined the rest of the car. The damaged components are adding up to over 75% of the car's value. The vehicle slowed and stopped suddenly on a busy road when the issue started. Currently, it has been inspected by two different shops and they have both given me the same diagnosis.

This is yet another incident of a Sonata Hybrid hybrid flashing a warning to the driver and the the engine shutting down. This time it was Sep 7, 2022 in Morristown, TN. A brief internet search led to this: https://www.tsbsearch.com/Hyundai/17-HC-003-1 indicating that the issue is known to Hyundai. This is definitely a safety issue, this is a known problem, why was no recall issued?

My daughter was driving on the interstate when the car went into limp mode and the engine light was flashing. We had it towed to hyundia dealership where they did an engine update. Had it for 3 months when it did the same thing to her again. Had it towed again to same dealership where they are telling me it needs a new engine.

We had taken out 2015 Hyundai Sonata to the repair shop because the check engine light came on. The repair shop said it gave the error for low oil, but the oil in the system was not low and we were barely past the oil change mileage. We had the oil changed and picked the car up. The next day, the car lost all power and locked up completely while going about 45 mph down the highway. We had to push the car off the highway. Car was towed to same repair shop and we were informed the motor was blown. We called Hyundai but they offered no assistance since we were past 100,000 miles. The engine blew at 114,000 miles.

This Car Was A One Car Accident, 2 People Were In The Vehicle. A On Coming Car In The Opposite Lane Was Swerving In My Lane Causing Me To Try To Get Over To The Right Of The Road Trying To Dodge The Car , We Hit Some Kind Of Post No Air Bags Deployed, I Also Have Pictures As Well As Documentation From Hyundai Fixing The Engine On The Car They Supposedly Inspected Everything And Said The Only The Wrong Was The Breaks. Well No Airbags Deployed One Person Is Hospitalized Lung Was Out Of Chest And the Other Person Suffered Injuries To The Face And Arm Which Is Also Documented We Are Currently Still In The Hospital So Any Other Documentation Can Be Sent Later On

The contact owns a 2015 Hyundai Sonata. The contact stated that after having her vehicle serviced under NHTSA Campaign Number: 21V749000 (Exterior Lighting, Electrical System) the exterior and interior lights would turn off while driving at various speeds, with the check engine and oil warning lights illuminated. The contact also stated that upon using the turn signals, the headlights would intermittently turn off; however, the headlights would turn on upon toggling the light switch. The contact had initially taken the vehicle back to the dealer where she was given a diagnostic fee to determine the cause of the failure. The vehicle was then taken to an independent mechanic where she was informed that the E-CVVT actuator was defective. In addition, the contact also stated that the vehicle would hesitate upon depression of the accelerator pedal or lunge forward upon depression of the brake pedal. The independent mechanic linked the failure to the E-CVVT actuator. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 80,000.

My wife is concerned for her safety and our three children. On start up and driving engine feels like it's shutting off and turning back on. I was told by a local mechanic that there are several issues that Hyundai knows about and basically aren't fixing. Engine light keeps coming on and off with a different code everytime. Issue has been going on for about a year replaced spark plugs and had decarbonization process done to no avail.

The contact owns a 2015 Hyundai Sonata. The contact stated while driving approximately 45 MPH, there was a cranking noise coming from the engine. There was an engine overheated message displayed. The vehicle was towed to the local dealer. The dealer diagnosed the vehicle with engine failure. The vehicle was then towed to another dealer who diagnosed the vehicle with engine failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 127,785.

When driving at night the headlights have gone off several times when the turn single is used. The headlights will come back on when the turn single returns to the neutral position.

Low beam headlamps cast a shadow that seriously impedes vision of the roadway. Hyundai dealer informed me that other Sonata owners have complained of the same issue, but they have been instructed by the factory to claim that the defect is "normal". By the way, I have seen many similar complaints on internet sites lodged by Sonata owners across the country. * Please be advised: the attached photo is not oriented correctly. It is a vertical view.

Engine failure while driving on freeway. Lost control unable to accelerate, almost got hit by semi due to inability to move out of way swiftly. All engine oil came out due to rod bearing punching hole in engine block and car started smoking, fire department said I had maybe 2 minutes before my car would’ve been engulfed in flames.

The contact owns a 2015 Hyundai Sonata. The contact stated that there was an abnormally strong odor of gasoline coming from the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the dealer however, the mechanic was unable to determine where the odor was coming from. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was contacted and a complaint was filed. The failure mileage was 12,000.

I would like to start by saying I love my Hyundai. I love the way it drives. It is a 2015 Hyundai Sonata Limited, my only means of transportation. My main concern is my vehicle was made without an engine immobilizer which makes it very easy for thieves to steal my car, by removing part of the steering column and using a USB charging cable. And to add to this problem, if a thief was to break a window to gain entry in the vehicle, the window is not part of the car’s alarm system. I am aware of a lot of Hyundai vehicles being stolen due to this problem. On or about 08/16/2022, I contacted Hyundai Customer Care Main Office and the gentleman I addressed this problem to said Hyundai was supposed to be making a kit available for purchase in October 2022, with a price range of $100+ through $200+. I am upset because 1) I don’t feel like I should have to purchase this kit out of my pocket because it is not my fault Hyundai made my car this way and I wasn’t aware of this at the time of purchase and 2) I work a $10 an hour job and cannot afford this kind of purchase. I feel like Hyundai should foot the bill for this kit. I work in an area where car break-ins happen fairly often. Car break-ins happen a lot in the Fayettville NC area. I am very concerned and pray and trust Hyundai will address my concerns and will work toward a resolution for me and other Hyundai owners. Please let me know what Hyundai can do about this. Thank you in advance for taking care of this matter! Sincerely, Virg

When auto lights are engaged and the blinkers are engaged, the light will turn off and it will blink in the wrong direction for a few times and then blink the correct direction. While in auto lights and you turn a curve they will sometimes go off. Now I have an issue with my AC - it goes on and off randomly. Had it looked at and they cannot find an issue with the components but said it could be an electrical issue. BYW, Hyundai replaced the motor in this car as well because it had so many issues. I was told the issues now could be caused from them replacing the motor and causing an electrical issue. The paint is also peeling and they had a recall on the paint, but the paint on my car didn't start peeling until after their warranty had expired. This is a known issue with 2015 models - they know the paint is bad but won't fix it. Car manufacturers should be held accountable for what they put on the market, or at least fix what are known issues for multiple vehicles.

In Nov 2021, the door handle on the rear driver side door came off. Today, the front driver door handle broke. This is a huge safety matter because I cannot get into my car without opening the front passenger door and crawling into the driver seat. In the case of an emergency, this could be detrimental. There are also other reports of door handles falling off on the Internet (https://www.abcactionnews.com/money/consumer/taking-action-for-you/door-handle-defect-forces-woman-to-crawl-through-the-back-of-her-car-to-get-to-the-drivers-seat?_amp=true). I have called Hyundai and they refuse to do anything about this issue and it costs 300+ per handle to replace. There is no reason door handles should be falling off…especially ones that you don’t use as often, such as the one for my rear driver side door.

The engine constantly needs oil added. There is no oil leakage showing on the ground. I have to add oil ever week. The engine also knocks going at slow speeds up hill and has started knocking when started if you turn it off and restart it it will run ok. The dealer says the engine has to fail completely before the recall will be completed. So I have to drive it until it fails somewhere on the highway and could easily cause a serious accident.

2 recalls were found on my car and a service campaign. After taking my car to a couple auto shops, within 2 years my car has had the same repair issue involving P010 & P011 codes. After researching and finding there was a service campaign and 2 recalls, I decided to take my car to the dealership due to address the recalls. I took my car in on 8/1 and had a full inspection done on my car. Outside of the normal wear & tear, I was advised that the ECVVT cap was installed incorrectly, that it was leaking oil. I was told that cleaning the oil & reinstalling the cap would correct the problem, it didn’t and I’m out of additional money ($562) and the problem is reoccurring. I’ve called several times recently, as well as one of my mechanics, hadn’t received a return call not until I filed a BBB complaint. It seems they are not honoring or even considering the service campaign (ECVVT Seating issue) and it is my belief, will continue to send me in circles to pay more money. A full inspection was done on my car, wasn’t nothing major but my engine light came back on in route home. I called the advisor and he couldn’t give me a definitive response as to when I could bring my car back & get it checked again. I wanted another appointment time so that I wouldn’t be inconvenienced by sitting at the dealership all day until they decided to check or get to my car again. It took me almost a month to get the 8/1/22 appointment. The staff I spoke with has tried to convince me that the issue with my

Engine problem. Massive oil consumption. We bought our 2015 Sonata new and have taken it for service and maintenance at the dealership. I have all records from dealership maintenance. Have been told that its just normal for that engine and to keep adding oil. Now I have to check and add oil weekly or it will be empty. Started having issues in 2017. Hyundai knows there is a problem with the engine. I dont know who to talk to or what I can do.

It happened with me twice when I noticed that after about 1800 miles after my car’s oil change, the oil light comes up when there’s a turn or a speed bump. After checking the dipstick, I noticed that there was no oil in the engine. I got it checked for some possible leaks in the car but there were none. This narrowed it down to the cause that the car is burning oil too quickly and that it could also lead to to engine seizure if on a long drive. I also did some research on the same and found that I wasn’t the only one and that there still hasn’t been a recall on the same. I believe it is a safety issue if the engine malfunctions while driving, be it long range or a short one.

The contact owns a 2015 Hyundai Sonata. The contact stated that when the vehicle was started, the check engine warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who stated that the spark plugs needed to be replaced. The vehicle was towed to the dealer where the vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was contacted and stated that the vehicle was not under warranty and there was no recall on the vehicle. The failure mileage was 27,055.

My car was a 2015 Hyundai Sonata that was stolen off a well lit street in Milwaukee two days ago. The car was locked with the alarm activated. I feel violated and my safety was at risk and the company knows about the safety issues of these cars and have done nothing about it.

Power steering stopped working. 2 icons came up on instrument panel. A red steering wheel with an exclamation point and a car skidding. I was making a turn and was unable to turn the car back straight. Luckily I was going slow and was able to get stopped. I was able to get the car home without power steering. After restarting the car the power steering came back. Now I can't trust the car.
