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.

WAS DRIVING THE CAR ON A RESIDENTIAL ROAD WHEN THE ENGINE WITHOUT ANY WARNING OR ANY INDICATION THERE COULD BE A PROBLEM TOTALLY STALLED ON ME. I LOST ALL POWER, AND RIGHT AWAY LOST POWER STEERING AND BRAKING WAS HARD. LUCKILY I WAS ON A QUIET ROAD AND NOT ON A HIGHWAY, I COULDN'T COMPREHEND A SUDDEN ENGINE STALL LIKE THIS ON A BUSY INTERSTATE LOSING BOTH POWER BRAKES AND POWER STEERING. THE CAR HAD ABOUT 45,000 MILES. HYUNDAI SAID THE ENGINE IS TOTALLY FRIED AND THEY WILL REQUIRE A COMPLETE REBUILD WHICH COULD TAKE MONTHS. THE SERVICE ADVISOR SAID THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THE 2013 SONATA.

TAIL LIGHTS AND BRAKE LIGHTS CONSTANTLY BURN OUT. THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR OVER 4 YEARS FOR ME AND ACCORDING TO COMPLAINTS ONLINE, IT'S BEEN AN ISSUE AS FAR BACK AS 2010 FOR SONATAS. THE BULBS ARE BURNING OUT TOO QUICKLY AND I AM AFRAID THAT IT MAY LEAD TO A FIRE. I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO CONTINUE BUYING REPLACEMENT BULBS OR PAYING FEES TO FIX THIS PROBLEM WHICH HYUNDAI IS RESPONSIBLE FOR.

THE STEERING WHEEL HAS DEVELOPED EXTENSIVE PLAY AND HAS A "THUMP" NOISE THAT IS FELT WHEN THE CAR IS SITTING IDLE. DURING DRIVING THE COLUMN HAS PLAY THE IS MAKING THE VEHICLE HARD TO CONTROL, ALTHOUGH NOT TO A VERY LARGE EXTEND, IT WAS NOT THERE BEFORE. STEERING PLAY FORM CENTER IS ABOUT 3 INCHES WHEN BEFORE IT HAD NONE. DURING DRIVING ON A CITY ROAD THE STEERING IS A CHALLENGE TO MAINTAIN, BUMPS MAKE IT FEEL A IF THE COLUMN IS LOOSE THE CAR SWAYS IN LANE IF DRIVER IS NOT PAYING CLOSE ATTENTION. ITS BEEN CHECKED AND EVERYTHING SEEMS TO BE TIGHT, WHEELS AND AXLES SEEM OK.
Vehicle speed control, Aug 19, 2018
CRUISE CONTROL WORKS ERRATICALLY. WILL TURN ON, BUT THE "SET" AND "CANCEL" BUTTONS OFTEN DO NOT RESPOND WHEN PRESSED. WHEN ATTEMPTING TO ENGAGE THE "SET" BUTTON, IT EITHER DOES NOT WORK, OR WILL ENGAGE BUT THE CAR WILL START ACCELERATING AND REQUIRES A TAP ON THE BRAKES TO DISENGAGE. WHEN THE SET BUTTON DOES ENGAGE PROPERLY, THE CANCEL BUTTON DOES NOT RESPOND WHEN PRESSED, AND BRAKES MUST BE APPLIED TO DISENGAGE THE CRUISE CONTROL. IN THE PAST, THIS ISSUE HAD OCCURRED SPORADICALLY. THE CRUISE CONTROL WOULD WORK FINE FOR A PERIOD OF TIME, BUT THEN THESE SET AND CANCEL FUNCTION ISSUES WOULD REAPPEAR. LATELY, HOWEVER, THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN PERSISTENT.

AFTER HITTING THE BRAKES THE BRAKE LIGHTS STAYED ON, AFTER A FEW MINUTES THE CAR WENT TO IDLE WITHOUT WARNING, THEN BACK TO CRUISE THEN BACK TO IDLE AND STAYED ABOUT A MINUTE, THEN BACK TO CRUISE, THEN BACK TO IDLE. HYUNDAI IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM, BUT NOT ISSUING A RECALL. THE PROBLEM ALMOST CAUSE A CRASH WITH CARS GOING AROUND US. IF IT WOULD HAVE HAPPEN ON THE FREEWAY IT WOULD HAVE BEEN WORSE.
