Recalls and investigations

  1. Exterior lighting, turn signalSep 24, 2021

    Hyundai Motor America (Hyundai) is recalling certain 2015-2017 Sonata, 2016-2017 Sonata Hybrid, and Sonata Plug-In Hybrid vehicles. The Smart Junction Box (SJB) software logic may not properly interpret the signals received from the multifunction switch, which could cause the turn signal to activate in the opposite direction of what the driver intended.

    A turn signal that activates in the opposite direction of what was intended by the driver increases the risk of a crash.

    Dealers will update the SJB software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed November 19, 2021. Owners may contact Hyundai customer service at 1-855-371-9460. Hyundai's number for this recall is 210.

  2. Parking brake, indicator lightJun 5, 2017

    Hyundai Motor America (Hyundai) is recalling certain 2015-2016 Sonata and Genesis vehicles. In the affected vehicles, the warning light to indicate that the parking brake is applied may intermittently not illuminate in the dash due to corrosion in the switch.

    If the parking brake indicator is not illuminated when the parking brake is applied, the driver may operate the vehicle with the parking brake partially engaged, increasing the risk of a crash.

    Hyundai will notify owners, and dealers will replace the parking brake switch, free of charge. The recall began on August 4, 2017. Owners may contact Hyundai customer service at 1-855-671-3059. Hyundai's number for this recall is 164.

  4. Air bags, frontalApr 21, 2016

    Hyundai Motor Company (Hyundai) is recalling certain model year 2015-2016 Sonata vehicles manufactured May 29, 2014 to February 11, 2016, 2017 Elantra vehicles manufactured January 12, 2016 to February 22, 2016, and one 2016 Sonata Hybrid vehicle manufactured October 15, 2015. In these vehicles, the driver's frontal air bag may be missing a chemical enhancer required for the second stage air bag deployment, resulting in the second stage not deploying in certain crashes.

  5. Electrical system, instrument cluster/panelOct 20, 2015

    Hyundai Motor America (Hyundai) is recalling certain model year 2015-2016 Sonata vehicles manufactured May 28, 2014, to August 21, 2015. The affected vehicles are equipped with an Antilock Braking System (ABS) warning light intended to warn the driver if there is an ABS malfunction. In the event of an ABS malfunction, the Brake System warning light will illuminate, but the ABS warning light will not illuminate. Since the vehicles have ABS malfunction lights that do not illuminate, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 135, "Light Vehicle Brake Systems."

    If the driver is alerted there is a brake system malfunction, but not specifically with the ABS system, the driver may operate the vehicle unaware that the vehicle's brakes may lock up during hard braking, increasing the risk of a crash.

    Hyundai will notify owners, and dealers will update the ABS control unit software, free of charge. The recall is expected began on November 30, 2015. Owners may contact Hyundai customer service at 1-855-671-3059. Hyundai's number for this recall is 134.

  6. Seat belts, front, buckle assemblyJun 30, 2015

    Hyundai Motor America (Hyundai) is recalling certain model year 2015 Sonata vehicles manufactured April 25, 2014, to December 4, 2014. The affected vehicles have a front passenger seat belt whose buckle latch assembly may prevent the front passenger from fastening the seat belt.

    If the front passenger seat belt cannot be latched, an occupant sitting in the front passenger seat has an increased risk of injury in the event of a crash.

    Hyundai will notify owners, and dealers will repair or replace the front passenger seat belt buckle, free of charge. The recall began on September 15, 2015. Owners may contact Hyundai customer service at 1-855-671-3059. Hyundai's number for this recall is 130.

  7. Power train, axle assembly, axle shaftDec 9, 2014

    Hyundai Motor America (Hyundai) is recalling certain 1.6 liter model year 2015 Sonata vehicles manufactured August 29, 2014, to October 28, 2014. The affected vehicles may have been assembled with an incorrect left axle shaft which may result in the shaft separating from the transaxle differential.

    If the left axle shaft separates from the transaxle, the vehicle may stop moving, increasing the risk of a crash. Additionally, a separated axle shaft may allow the vehicle to 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, dealers will inspect and replace the axle shaft, as necessary, free of charge. Owners may contact Hyundai customer service at 1-800-633-5151. Hyundai's number for this recall is 126.

    Hyundai Motor Company (Hyundai) is recalling certain model year 2015 Sonata vehicles manufactured April 25, 2014, through June 16, 2014. Due to a manufacturing error, one or both of the front brake calipers may fracture.

    If a brake caliper fractures, brake effectiveness would be reduced, lengthening to distance required to stop the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.

    Hyundai contacted the affected owners on June 19, 2014 and instructed them not to drive their vehicles. Hyundai dealers will replace the affected brake calipers, free of charge. The recall began on September 12, 2014. Owners may contact Hyundai customer service at 1-800-633-5151. Hyundai's number for this recall is 120.

    Hyundai Motor Company (Hyundai) is recalling certain model year 2015 Sonata vehicles manufactured May 2, 2014, through May 23, 2014. A poor connection within the vehicle's wiring harness may result in a reduction of steering assist from the vehicle's motor driven power steering system or the inability to move the vehicle's shifter from the Park position.

    The reduction of power steering assist can increase the steering effort needed, increasing the risk of a crash.

    Hyundai notified dealers to suspend sales of affected Sonata vehicles and has published recall bulletin 14-01-024 providing a service procedure to repair the affected vehicles. On June 7, 2014 Hyundai began to contact the affected retail customers. Owners may contact Hyundai customer service at 1-800-633-5151. Hyundai's number for this recall is 119.

  16. Electrical system, Engine, Fuel/propulsion system, Dec 14, 2020

    VEHICLE DRIVER RECEIVED AUDIO AND VISUAL ALERT WHILE DRIVING AT HIGH RATE OF SPEED THAT THE "HYBRID WARNING FAILED AND TO CHECK HYBRID SYSTEM-TURN ENGINE OFF" AND TO PULL OVER SAFELY. HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE LOCKED AND LOST ALL POWER MAKING IT IMPOSSIBLE TO SAFELY EXIT THE INTERSTATE ALMOST INSTANTLY AFTER THE ALARM. UPON RESEARCH, I MANAGE A LARGE VEHICLE FLEET, WE HAVE MULTIPLE OTHER SONATA'S WITH THE SAME ISSUE-AND THERE IS A TSB FOR THIS KNOWN SAFETY FAILURE (17-HC-003-1).

  17. Engine, Dec 4, 2020

    WE BOUGHT OUR SONATA IN 2017, SINCE THEN IT HAS GONE INTO "LIMP MODE" (WHILE IN MOTION EVERY TIME) THREE TIMES. WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED AND THEY CLAIMED IT NEEDED A "SOFTWARE UPDATE". THE UPDATE DIDN'T LAST TOO LONG BECAUSE IT WENT INTO "LIMP MODE" ONCE AGAIN. WE TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP (AS INSTRUCTED BY THE DEALERSHIP) AND THEY REFUSED TO PROVIDE SERVICES UNTIL A DIAGNOSIS FEE WAS PROVIDED; EVEN THOUGH THEY TOLD US TO BRING IT BACK IF IT HAPPENED AGAIN AND THEY WOULD FIX THE PROBLEM AT NO COST. WE REFUSED TO PAY THE FEE SINCE THEY HAD TOLD US THEY WOULD FIX IT FOR FREE AND THE CAR SAT FOR ABOUT A MONTH OR TWO WHILE WE USED MY HUSBANDS PARENTS VEHICLE (SINCE IT IS OUR ONLY VEHICLE). WE EVENTUALLY DROVE IT TO A THIRD PARTY MECHANIC (WHILE BEING JERKED AROUND BECAUSE THE CAR WOULD LOSE POWER AND GOING 20MPH IN A 35MPH ZONE) AND HE CHANGED OUT THE KNOCKER ROD AND HEAD GASKETS AFTER STATING IT WAS THE ISSUE AFTER HOOKING IT UP TO A DIAGNOSTIC COMPUTER AND GETTING CODES TO CHANGE THOSE SPECIFIC ITEMS. IT SEEMED TO WORK FOR ABOUT FIVE MONTHS, UNTIL RECENTLY WHEN MY HUSBAND AND I WERE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY (IN TRAFFIC) WHEN IT WENT INTO "LIMP MODE" ONCE MORE. THE DEALERSHIP DECIDED TO TAKE THE CAR IN TO LOOK AT IT, PROVIDED A RENTAL CAR AND INDICATED THE CAR NEEDED A NEW ENGINE BEFORE SERVICE (BECAUSE IT KEEPS GOING INTO LIMP MODE). THEY CALLED US YESTERDAY TO LET US KNOW THAT IT JUST NEEDED ANOTHER "SOFTWARE UPDATE". I HAVE BEEN TOLD SOFTWARE UPDATES DON'T RESOLVE THE ISSUE, IT PUSHES THE PROBLEM BACK AND IT WILL REOCCUR. I HAVE ALREADY CALLED AND FILED A COMPLAINT WITH THE DEALERSHIPS CONSUMER AFFAIRS DEPARTMENT (THAT THE SERVICE MANAGER FROM THE DEALERSHIP GAVE US) AND AM WAITING FOR A CALL BACK. THIS CAR IS NOT SAFE. I HAVE A TODDLER AND AM PREGNANT AND FEAR FOR MY FAMILIES SAFETY WHILE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE.

  23. Engine, Nov 2, 2020

    THIS IS OUR DAUGHTER'S CAR. YESTERDAY (NOV 1) HER CAR STALLED, WITH THE WARNING "HYBRID SYSTEM WARNING! SAFELY STOP AND DO NOT DRIVE". THIS TIME SHE WAS PARKED IN A PARKING LOT AND THE WARNING MESSAGE CAME ON WHEN SHE TRIED TO START THE VEHICLE. THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME IT'S HAPPENED. ON PREVIOUS OCCASIONS THE DEALER'S TECHNICIANS DID NOT EVEN RECORD ANYTHING IN HER MAINTENANCE RECORDS. SHE UNDERSTANDS THIS IS NOT AN UNUSUAL PROBLEM, WITH MANY HYUNDAI HYBRID OWNERS OF THAT SAME 2015 MODEL YEAR, AS WELL AS OTHER YEARS, REPORTING SIMILAR PROBLEMS. IS THIS SOMETHING THAT IS BEING LOOKED INTO? THE DEALER PERSONNEL JUST SORT OF DISMISS THIS AS NO BIG DEAL.
