I was driving did a couple of errands and when I was coming home my car felt like it lost power and I had to pull over and get it towed home. All my lights come on, so it has power from the battery. When I go to turn the key nothing happens.

A recall has been settled. We are entitled to engine repair or replacement. I have made 14 payments on a car sitting at a Hyundai dealership, in a recall that is officially settled, and it won't/doesn't run and they won't help at all. They replaced my dipstick....light came on...replaced my oil fill cap...repeat....

Vehicle engine stalled at stoplight. Had towed to local mechanics shop for evaluation. After sitting overnight the car was driven approx 10-15 miles and it ran ok. Several weeks later, on about July 22, 2020 the engine shut down at a stop light, 6 lane road. Car pushed to side of road and towed to mechanics shop. Following morning when mechanic cranked the car the engine knocked! the mechanic, who is a certified 'master mechanic' said it was a rod knock. Could only be repaired with new engine. The car has 126,000 miles. The car was put into service brand new as my son'E business car furnished by his company. At 90,000 miles the car was wholesaled to me for my grandson. We have complete maintenance and oil changed records for entire life of car. We contacted the dealer who informed us we would have to deliver the car and pay $130 for them to evaluate and they were very discouraging that Hyundai would honor any kind of warranty. We learned there was a class-action lawsuit involving these engine failures so we intend to pursue that course of action. Very, very disappointed in the quality of Hyundai and their response.

While driving down the highway at 55 mph a warning for the hybrid system appeared on the middle screen between the gauges along with an audible chime instructing to safely pull over and stop the car. After pulling over and turning off the car I was unable to restart the vehicle. Display stated the hybrid battery was low and not to start the engine. After having the car towed to the dealer, the dealer stated the engine was seized. The car had been serviced as recommended since purchase. I am the original owner. There were no warning signs of complete engine failure. I have since learned that Hyundai Sonata had a recall for engine failures, but my model was not included.

Yesterday I was driving and out of nowhere my car shut off and all the lights came on but the crazy part is. The car still was moving and didn't stop until I stopped and pulled over.(so weird) I turned the car off and started it back up. It came on with no problems but no check engine light is on and it's flashing. I never see a flashing check engine light. Back to the story I'm driving but I can only go a certain speed or the car would stall and jerk like it's about to cut off. I did not repeat did not stop until I made it home lol. The whole time driving it kept stalling. In order for me to get home I had to jump on the highway but I took back roads just because I was scared the car would stop on the highway.O and don't let me stop at a red light hunni, it's taking its time to get up some speed. This the second or third time it did that but this time the check engine light came on. Is this under a recall? if not it definitely should be because that was so [xxx] scary driving. That was the longest 23 mins ever lol. Parts of this document have been redacted to protect personally identifiable information pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

I and my husband both own Hyundai's. we both have been having major engine issues with both vehicles consuming an incredible and abnormal amount of oil leaving us to have to put in over more than a gallon or more of oil into each vehicle. This has caused us much lost time in being able to enjoy our vehicle. After both vehicles completing oil consumption test, both vehicles recvd engine block replacements. This has not fixed the problem. Both vehicles have reverted back to doing the same thing. The issues stated back up after about a year. We have had to not drive the cars, put the cars in the shop, rent other vehicles to drive while at the same time have to pay the vehicle monthly payments. This is unfortunate because the manufacturer, Hyundai on purposely selling damaged cars and leaving the thousands of owners of these vehicles to have to deal with the unflux of issues that it has and continue to cause. Both vehicles are now back to square one with both needing to go back into the shop for more engine work whatever that may entail. The dealership has informed us that they do not have any vehicles for us to use or borrow while our vehicles are being maintenance. This is another inconvenience because now we have to pay the car note, rent a vehicle and possibly pay for any maintenance and then have to deal with the same manufacturer to try to get reimbursed. This has been nothing short of a nightmare. We want justice and we want the manufacturer Hyundai to be held accountable for their mischeavous and selfish actions. This has been ongoing but the vehicle went into the shop for new engines in late 2018 and my husband after mine. We could not afford to have both vehicles to be in the shop at the same time.

Remedy for known recall still not available. This recall is not being done in a timely manner. Problem is low pressure fuel hose which may crack and possibly lead to an engine fire.

My car has lost power while driving. It has now happened 3 times. Luckily it has happened while on a road and not the highway. There are other times when I'm stopped at a red light or stop sign and I can feel the car losing power and/or sputtering. The car will turn on after trying a few tries and will have the engine and traction control alerts lights on. Sometimes I will have to keep pushing on the gas while stepping on the break to keep the engine revving so the car doesn't die. The are also times when it seems the car loses power momentarily then keeps going. Very scary and dangerous.

Beginning at around 90K miles, there was intermittent stuttering, about 2 seconds apart, whereby the vehicle would lose power while in motion; at various speeds, both on acceleration and deceleration or coasting. The episodes were only happening after the car had been driven for more than an hour. Now, at 92K miles the stuttering has increased in frequency and today I received a "hybrid system warning! safely stop and do not drive" message with audible warning chimes and a "wrench" icon illuminated. This trip was only a ten mile trip, in the morning, outside temperature was about 65F. The car hadn't been driven at all this day prior to this event. The warnings happened twice, less than one mile to my home, and I barely made it to my driveway, where it's now parked.
