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 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.

I PURCHASED MY VEHICLE FROM CJ AUTO LOANS AND FINANCED THROUGH CREDIT ACCEPTANCE BACK IN OCTOBER OF 2018. I WAS NOT INFORMED FROM NEITHER CREDIT ACCEPTANCE NOR CJ AUTO LOANS THAT THE CAR HAD A ENGINE RECALL. IN JUNE OF 2019 THE CAR WOULD NOT START OR TURN OVER AFTER BEING PARKED AT A FRIENDS HOUSE. I GOT THE CAR TOWED TO MY MECHANIC WHERE HE INFORMED ME THAT THE CAR ENGINE CEASED. WHEN I PURCHASED THE CAR I ALSO PURCHASED A VEHICLE WARRANTY. THE WARRANTY CAME TO LOOK AT THE VEHICLE AND INFORMED ME THAT THEY COULD NOT FIX THE CAR. BUT, I WAS NEVER INFORMED FROM THE WARRANTY COMPANY THAT THE ENGINE HAD A RECALL FOR THE MAKE YEAR AND MODEL OF THE CAR. I HAVE LOST LOTS OF MONEY AND EVEN WAS WAS FORCED TO DO A VOLUNTARY REPO.

EL VEHICULO SONATA 2013 TIENE 134,000 MILLAS Y ESTA GASTANDO 1 CUARTO DE ACEITE POR CADA 600 MILLAS. ENTIENDO QUE ES UN PROBLEMA DE FABRICA YA QUE NO ES NORMAL QUE UN VEHICULO NUEVO ESTE GASTANDO ESTA CANTIDAD DE ACEITE PARA ESE MILLAJE. VARIOS MECANICOS ME HAN DICHO LO MISMO. QUE NO ES NORMAL PARA UN VEHICULO NUEVO. PRACTICAMENTE. TIENE TODOS LOS CAMBIOS DE ACEITE Y FILTRO CADA 3000 MILLAS Y TODOS LOS MANTENIMIENTOS AL DIA. SERIA BUENO QUE VERIFICARAN YA QUE EL VEHICULO NO HA DADO PROBLEMAS DE NADA ANTERIORMENTE, EXCEPT LA GASTAERA DE ACEITE QUE LE ESTOY PRESENTANDO ACTUALMENTE. EL VEHICULO LO UTILIZE DIARIAMENTE PARA MI TRABAJO Y NUNCA ME HA DADO PROBLEMAS.

IMMEDIATELY AFTER PURCHASING MY 2013 HYUNDAI SONATA, LE, 2.0 T, IN SEPTEMBER 2013, THE STEERING MECHANISM DISPLAYED SLACK AND A CLICKING, THUMPING NOISE WHEN IN 'DRIVE' OR 'PARK' POSITION , AND WHENEVER PRODDING THE STEERING WHEEL IN EITHER DIRECTION. SHORTLY THEREAFTER, I TOOK MY VEHICLE INTO THE HYUNDAI OF LONG ISLAND CITY DEALERSHIP, WHERE I HAD PURCHASED IT, AND WAS DISMISSIVELY TOLD THIS WAS NORMAL DUE TO "VEHICLE'S SOPHISTICATED ELECTRONIC STEERING". OVER ENSUING YEARS, AND WHILE VEHICLE WAS STILL UNDER ITS 5-YEAR/60,000 MILE WARRANTY, THE PROBLEM BECAME PROGRESSIVELY WORSE, EVENTUALLY LEADING TO REPLACEMENT OF ITS DAMAGED 'FLEXIBLE STEERING COUPLING' [PART 56315-2K000-FFF] ON 08/27/19, BUT SAID REPAIR DID NOT CORRECT PERSISTENT STEERING GEAR ASSEMBLY PROBLEM, NECESSITATING REPLACEMENT PART 56500-3Q400! RESPECTFULLY, I BELIEVE THIS PREVALENT, ONGOING STEERING GEAR PROBLEM SHOULD BECOME AN NHTSA 'RECALL' OR A HYUNDAI TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN (TSB), SINCE THOUSANDS OF HYUNDAI SONATA OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCING THIS SAME PROBLEM, MANY PAST THEIR WARRANTY PERIODS, WHICH IS EXACTLY HOW THE COMMON 'FLEXIBLE STEERING COUPLING' DEFECT RECENTLY BECAME A TSB, AND WHY SUCH REPAIRS ARE NOW BEING MADE AND HONORED ON CERTAIN VEHICLES PAST THEIR WARRANTY PERIODS. I BELIEVE THAT MY STEERING GEAR ASSEMBLY PROBLEM SHOULD HAVE BEEN PROPERLY ADDRESSED WHEN I FIRST PRESENTED THE ISSUE TO THE DEALERSHIP, BACK IN 2013, AND WHILE MY VEHICLE WAS STILL UNDER ITS WARRANTY! PLEASE HELP US INVESTIGATE THIS VEHICLE'S SERIOUS, WIDESPREAD MECHANICAL DESIGN/MANUFACTURING PROBLEM, AND PLEASE ORDER OR CONVINCE HYUNDAI MOTOR AMERICA TO COVER THIS REPAIR OF APPROXIMATELY $1,200, BEYOND ITS WARRANTY. THANK YOU FOR YOUR PROMPT ASSISTANCE REGARDING THIS IMPORTANT PUBLIC SAFETY CONCERN, WHICH CONTINUES TO AFFECT COUNTLESS HYUNDAI SONATA VEHICLES AND THEIR OWNERS THROUGHOUT THE USA.

THE TOP OF THE DASHBOARD CRACKED ABOUT 18 INCHES. OUR HYUNDAI SERVICE REP SAID IT WAS CAUSED BY THE AIRBAGS UNDER THE DASHBOARD EXPANDING FROM THE HEAT. HYUNDAI SHOULD REPLACE THE DASHBOARD, OBVIOUSLY MADE OF FAULTY MATERIAL. OUR REP SAID IT WOULD COST US $1,000.00.

I WAS DRIVING MY CAR HOME FROM WORK AND ALL OF A SUDDEN MY CAR JERKED AND THE RPM GUAGE WENT TO ZERO AND THE AIR CONDITIONER STOPPED AND THE LOSS OF TRACTION LIGHT CAME ON UPON KILLING THE CAR AND RESTARTING IT IT DROVE FINE WITH NO PROBLEM. TOOK IT TO DEALER TO INSPECT AND TO CHECK AND FIX RECALLS AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY CHANGED THE OIL FOR THE RECALL ON MY VEHICHLE AND THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH CAR SINCE IT WAS NOT ACTING UP AT THAT TIME. WEEK LATER IT DONE IT AGAIN AND TOOK TO DEALERSHIP TO CHECK AND WAS TOLD IT CAME WITH CODE FOR CRANKSHAFT SENSOR AND 10 MINUTES LATER WAS TOLD THAT WAS NOT THE PROBLEM IT WAS A FAULTY ECM AND REPLACED IT. A WEEK LATER DONE THE EXACT SAME THING AND THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG AFTER KEEPING IT FOR A MONTH. TOOK THE CAR TO ANOTHER AUTO MECHANIC AND WAS TOLD THEY COULD NOT FIGURE OUT WHAT WAS WRONG WITH CAR UNLESS IT WAS ACTING UP. NOW HERE I AM DRIVING A CAR THAT WILL ACT UP OCCASIONALLY AND NOW IT SEEMS THAT IT GETTING WORSE WHEN I STOPPED AND STARTED UP A HILL IT SOUNDED LIKE METAL ON METAL CLANGING AND HAVE VERY SUSPICIOUS FEELING IT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE GDI ENGINE RECALL BUT CANT GET ANYONE TO FIGURE OUT WHAT IT IS SINCE IT'S SO HARD TO DRIVE A CAR ACTING UP IN CITY LIMITS WHEN IT DOES NOT WANT TO GO UNLESS YOU GOT THE GAS PEDAL TO THE FLOOR.
