Today I took my car to the dealership for a recall on the rear cross member. I also wanted to pay for a four wheel alignment at my own cost. I dropped my car off this morning only to be called a couple hours later. The gentleman stated that he couldn't do an alignment on the front tires because "the front subframe is rotted around the control arm mounting points." He said that my car was "very unsafe" and that I really shouldn't drive it. My ride had left and I was 40 minutes from home. I had no choice. Thankfully, I made it home safely and now it's parked for awhile. But after some research I saw that 2001-2004 Hyundai Sonata were recalled for the front subframe rotting away. Not only that, I saw many cases of owners of 2006 Hyundai Sonata with the same problem that I am having. He told me that the cost to repair would be over $1,300. Oh my. So, many other 2006 Hyundai Sonata owners are having the same problem with the front subframe rotting and rusting out. I really feel like something should be done about this.

The driver's side front door handle broke loose. Then a couple of weeks later the driver's side rear door handle broke loose. Today 26 Jan 2014 the passenger's rear door handle broke. Hyundai told us back in April 2013 that the door handle problems was not their problem since our warranty had run out. Having owned quite a few cars and all for more than 7 years and none has ever had their door handle snap loose. To replace a door handle costs around $150. I have replace the drivers side front door handle. Seems to me that losing 3 out of 4 door handles is a result of a major defect in the car and should be the manufacturers responsibility. And now that the rear doors can no longer be opened from the outside I believe this defect is a safety issue.

My 2006 Hyundai Sonata has two maybe more door handles that have either broken are in the process of breaking inside the door. I believe this is a manufacture/design defect and the responsibility of the manufacture to correct. Have made numerous contracts to the manufacture to resolve this issue and to there alternative dispute resolution party (BBB) they suggested and still have no resolution to the correction. I have the package emailable that was sent to the alternative dispute resolution party however they said the vehicle was to old to meet their arbitration conditions.

I went to a sears auto center back in December 2012 to get an alignment. In the first week of May 2013, I went back to sears to have my alignment rechecked because I was experiencing shaking while braking. They told me my rear brake shoes were corroded and falling apart and I needed to change them, along with getting new rotors and brake pads. After have these parts installed, the mechanic called me over regarding my alignment and said the rear suspension frame was corroded and rusted in 2 places, causing the tow to go out of alignment. They said I needed to either replace the whole subframe or have a steel beam welded to it for stability so they could get the correct alignment specs. If I didn't fix it, the alignment would always be off. They also warned me that if I traveled with my vehicle long distance, the frame could break where the corrosion occurred, causing an accident. 2 weeks ago, I was driving at about 35 mph in my neighborhood when my steering wheel listed to the left about 45 degrees and my rear wheels started to lean in. The driver's side rear wheel was also turned outwards which caused the car to fishtail and swerve uncontrollably during driving. I felt very unsafe and my car has been parked in my driveway since until I can get it towed to a repair shop.

Brought car into dealer as engine light was on. Dealer explained to me that I needed a new gas cap ($200). Did not fix problem and when returned to dealership I was told that I needed to replace the gas tank as it was rotted. I had owned the vehicle for a year but how does a 6 year old car have a rotted gas tank? dealership (balise Toyota, springfield, MA) claimed "well that is new england for ya". I am over 70 years old and have owned a number of cars in new england over the years, none of which have ever had a rotted gas tank.
