Hyundai Motor America (Hyundai) is recalling certain 2011-2014 Sonata and 2013-2014 Santa Fe Sport vehicles previously repaired under recall numbers 15V-568 and 17V-226. The high pressure fuel pipe that connects to the fuel pump outlet may have been damaged, misaligned, or improperly torqued during the engine replacement procedure, allowing fuel to leak from the pipe.
A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source can increase the risk of a fire.
Hyundai will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and replace the fuel pipe, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began March 1, 2019. Owners may contact Hyundai customer service at 1-855-371-9460. Hyundai's recall number for this recall is 180.

Seat belts, pretensionerFeb 27, 2018
Hyundai Motor America (Hyundai) is recalling certain 2011-2013 Sonata and 2011-2012 Sonata Hybrid vehicles. On February 27, 2018, Hyundai Motor Company (Hyundai) notified NHTSA that they were recalling 154,753 model year 2011 Sonata vehicles. On April 18, 2018, Hyundai expanded the recall to include an additional 425,305 model year 2012-2013 Sonata and 2011-2012 Sonata Hybrid vehicles. In the event of a crash, the air bag control unit (ACU) may short circuit, preventing the frontal air bags, seat belt pretensioners, and side air bags from deploying.
If the frontal air bags, seat belt pretensioners, and side air bags are disabled, there is an increased risk of injury to the vehicle occupants in the event of a vehicle crash that necessitates deployment of these safety systems.
Hyundai will notify owners, and dealers will install an external wire filter kit, free of charge. The recall began October 15, 2018. Owners may contact Hyundai customer service at 1-855-371-9460. Hyundai's number for this recall is 174.

Hyundai will notify owners, and dealers will again verify the connection between the seat belt linkage and the pretensioner and additionally install a warning label to prevent future seat belt linkage detachment, free of charge. The recall began November 6, 2017. Owners may contact Hyundai customer service at 1-855-371-9460. Hyundai's number for this recall is 169.

Exterior lighting, brake lights, switchNov 16, 2015
Hyundai Motor America (Hyundai) is recalling certain model 2011-2012 Sonata vehicles. The brake pedal stopper pad can deteriorate allowing the brake light switch plunger to remain extended when the brake pedal is released.
If the brake light switch plunger does not retract as it should when the brake pedal is not being pressed, the brake lights may stay illuminated preventing accurate communication to rearward following vehicles that the vehicle is slowing or stopping. Additionally, if the brake switch plunger is not retracted, then the transmission can be shifted out of PARK without depressing the brake pedal. Either condition increases the risk of a crash.
Hyundai will notify owners, and dealers will replace the brake pedal stopper pad with an improved part, free of charge. The recall began on January 6, 2016. Owners may contact Hyundai customer service at 1-855-671-3059. Hyundai's number for this recall is 136.

EngineSep 10, 2015
Hyundai Motor America (Hyundai) is recalling certain model year 2011-2012 Sonata vehicles manufactured December 11, 2009, to April 12, 2012 at Hyundai Motor Manufacturing Alabama and equipped with either a 2.0 liter or 2.4 liter Gasoline Direct injection engine. In the affected vehicles, metallic debris may not have been fully removed during manufacturing of the engine crankshaft. If the debris was not completely removed, oil flow may be restricted through the connecting rod bearings, causing connecting rod damage. A worn connecting rod bearing will produce a metallic, cyclic knocking noise from the engine and possible engine failure.
Engine failure would result in a vehicle stall, increasing the risk of a crash.
Hyundai will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the vehicles and replace the engine assembly, as necessary, free of charge. Additionally, Hyundai Motor America will increase the warranty for the engine sub-assembly (short block) to 10 years/120,000 miles for both original and subsequent owners of 2011 and 2012 Sonatas manufactured at Hyundai Motor Manufacturing Alabama equipped with 2.0 liter and 2.4 liter Gasoline Direct injection engines. Interim notifications were mailed to owners starting on October 8, 2015. A second notification will be mailed when parts are available. Owners may contact Hyundai customer service at 1-855-671-3059 or by visiting www.HyundaiUSA.com/Campaign132. Hyundai's number for this recall is 132.

Power train, automatic transmissionJul 18, 2014
Hyundai Motor Company (Hyundai) is recalling certain model year 2011-2014 Sonata vehicles manufactured December 11, 2009, through May 29, 2014. In the affected vehicles, the transmission shift cable may detach from from the shift lever pin.
If the transmission shift cable detaches, the transmission gear selection may not match the indicated gear and the vehicle may move in an unintended or unexpected direction, increasing the risk of a crash. Furthermore, when the driver parks the vehicle, despite selecting the 'PARK' position, the transmission may not be in 'PARK.' If the vehicle is not in the 'PARK' position and the parking brake is not applied, there is a risk the vehicle will roll away as the driver and other occupants exit the vehicle or anytime thereafter. A vehicle rollaway increases the risk of injury to exiting occupants and bystanders.
Hyundai will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and, as necessary, repair the connection between the shift cable and shift lever, free of charge. The recall began in September 2014. Owners may contact Hyundai customer service at 1-800-633-5151. Hyundai's number for this recall is 123.

Air bags, side/windowJul 24, 2012
Hyundai is recalling certain model year 2012-2013 Hyundai Sonata passenger cars, manufactured from January 24, 2012, through June 21, 2012. The curtain side airbags on these vehicles may inflate without deployment command due to an error during manufacturing.
The curtain airbag may inflate without deployment command and increase the risk of injury to occupants of the vehicle. Additionally, an unexpected deployment would be a significant driver distraction and would limit the driver's visibility, increasing the risk of a crash.
Hyundai dealers will notify owners, and dealers will replace the curtain side airbags free of charge. This recall began on August 31, 2012. Owners may contact Hyundai at 1-800-633-5151.

WE OWN A 2012 HYUNDAI SONATA AND THE BRAKE-TAIL LIGHTS KEEP GOING OUT. ONE TAIL LIGHT WE HAD TO REPLACE THE WHOLE ASSEMBLY BECAUSE THE HOLE THAT THE BULB GOES IN MELTED. IT DOES NOT MATTER WHAT YOU DO THEY ALWAYS BURN OUT. WHEN I'M ON THE HIGHWAY AND I'M BEHIND A HYUNDAI SONATA OR ELANTRA AROUND THE 2012 MODEL THEY ALWAYS HAVE A TAIL LIGHT THAT DOES NOT WORK. I KNOW A FEW OTHER PEOPLE WHO HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE. I EMAILED HYUNDAI ABOUT IT AND THEY SAID THEIR BASICALLY NOT DOING ANYTHING ABOUT IT. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT CAN CAUSE SOMEONE TO RUN INTO THE BACK OF YOU.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE STREET AND MY 2012 HYUNDAI SONATA 2.0T LIMITED THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER ILLUMINATED AND THE POWER STEERING WAS NO LONGER WORKING. I IMMEDIATELY PULLED OVER BECAUSE THE CAR STARTED TO SLOW DOWN WHILE PRESSING ON THE ACCELERATOR AND BEFORE I STOPPED ALL THE LIGHTS ON THE PANEL WERE OUT. I PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND TRIED TO CUT IT OFF WITH THE PUSH STOP BUTTON AND IT WOULD NOT CUT OFF. THEN I CALLED ROAD SIDE ASSISTANCE AND BEFORE I ENDED THE CALL THE ENGINE CUT OFF WITHOUT PRESSING THE ENGINE STOP BUTTON. IF I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY OR IN A BUSY AREA THE COULD HAVE ENDED IN A FATALITY. WHY ARE THERE NO RECALLS FOR THIS?

MY CAR WOULD NO LONGER START. I RECEIVED A JUMP. THE CAR STARTED. IT WOULD NOT START AGAIN. I RECEIVED A JUMP. THE CAR STARTED. I LET IT RUN 40 MINS. I SHUT IT OFF; TRIED TO START THE CAR BACK UP; AND IT WOULD NOT START. I RECEIVED A THIRD JUMP, IT STARTED, AND I TOOK MY BATTERY TO GET TESTED. THE BATTERY WAS FINE. WE WENT TO JUMP IT AGAIN, AND WE COULD NOT GET IT TO START. I HAD IT TOWED. AFTER INSPECTION, THE BATTERY TESTED AS FINE FOR A 2ND TIME. IT WAS BELIEVED THAT THE STARTED NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. A DIFFERENT MECHANIC CAME OUT FOR THE STARTED REPLACEMENT BUT WANTED TO RUN SOME ADDITIONAL TESTS DUE TO THIS BEING A COMMON SONATA ISSUE. HE JUMPED THE CAR AND IMMEDIATELY IT STARTED BY BYPASSING THE BREAK. HE TESTED THE BATTERY (3RD TIME)--PASSED. ALTERNATOR--PASSED. STARTER--PASSED. HE ADVISED ME TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THEM PINPOINT THE RELAY/SIGNAL THAT WAS NOT PROPERLY WORKING. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE THEY REQUIRED ANOTHER DIAGNOSTIC. THE DEALERSHIP CLAIMS THERE A BAD BATTERY, DESPITE IT HAVING PASSED 3X PRIOR AND WOULD NOT DO ANYTHING FURTHER BECAUSE THEY SAY ITS A BAD BATTERY AND NOTHING ELSE--DESPITE ME CONSISTENTLY TELLING THEM THE CAR HAS HAD ELECTRICAL ISSUES SINCE PURCHASED (CPO) AND THIS BEING A [GOOGLE-ABLE AND] VERY COMMON ISSUE WITH THE 2012 SONATA. LESS THAN 3 MONTHS AGO, I EXPERIENCED A COMMON ISSUE WITH THE BRAKE LIGHTS NOT TURNING OFF AS WELL. THE 2011 - 2013 SONATAS ARE RIDDEN WITH ELECTRICAL ISSUES THAT HYUNDAI IS COVERING UP, AND THIS NEEDS TO BE RECALLED.
