In the last three months, both driver's side door handles have fallen off/broken. In the first incident (Sept 2020), the driver's side rear door handle broke off the car when I tried to open the door. In the second incident (Nov 2020), the driver's side front door handle remained on the car but broke so that it no longer functions. Both incidences occurred when the vehicle was stationary. It is unknown why the door handles broke; I did not use excessive force nor was there any indication of a problem prior to these incidences.

Last month, the door handle to the door behind the driver seat was broken. When I tried to open my door, it did not open. That is in the picture attached. On Saturday, I opened my driver's door and the door handle broke in my hand. Now I have only tow doors that I can open. I looked online and many people are having issues with the Hyundai Sonata. I feel like customers should not pay for this because this a known safety issue. When this happened, my car was parked. I am going to Hyundai to get this repaired because I am scared that I will not be able to get in my car if all the handles gets like this.

When the transmission is cold, while driving and slowing down to 20 mhp the card jerks, hard downshift from 3rd to 2nd, and RPM increase by several hundred rps. Once the transmission warms up, issue mostly goes away. Issue started this year. Second issue is the white paint easily comes off all over the car, even just from hosing the car with water. Issue has been going on for several years. Its happening all over the car payment. Dealership said they have not seen the issue before, however I see alot of owners with white color have this issue. Suspension seems to be very hard while going over any bumps. Feels like there are no suspensions mechanisms at all.

Rear passenger door handle (exterior) broken - February 2020. All 4 door handles have broken on this car between 2015-2020! Hyundai paid for the first 1 but for the 2nd and 3rd told me, essentially, "too bad, door handles break." Apparently they do on 2010 Hyundai Sonata's as there are many complaints online and all 4 door handles broke on my car. That is ridiculous. I expect Hyundai to cover this one. The car has 66K miles on it. It does not get heavy use. The first 5 years, I took public transportation to work, then started working from home. There is no reason for the passenger side handles to break. The driver's door handle got normal use; nothing excessive or unusual.

I purchased the car in February 2016 and almost immediately 1 door handle came off, since then I have had 1 more to come off and 1 is just hanging on so I do not touch it. Unfortunately that is the driver's side door. I am constantly climbing over my seats or attempting to open from another door just to get inside the vehicle. This is totally unacceptable and especially frustrating when I have my grandchildren car seats in the back. I can not afford to keep replacing door handles and the only ones available do not match car color. After searching I see that this was a problem before I purchased my car. I can not honestly recommend this vehicle to anyone for the fact that you need to be able to get inside just to test drive and the door handle might possibly come off. The car runs fine but I would like immediate replacements for door handles so that I can get inside the car correctly and without having to climb over other seats especially in the rain.

Door handles fall off. They've already been replaced 8 times in the last 3 years. I have now lost two more handles which at 58$ a piece, I am becoming frustrated that I cannot get in my car quickly god forbid something happens, nor get to my baby in the back seat quickly as I have to roll down the windows, run around the vehicle to open the door. I have seen 2011 Hyundai Sonatas recall the handles, however mine is a 2010 and this should be replaced by Hyundai as it has become a nuisance.

Car purchased June 2016. 17,000 mi. Three months later the rear passenger door handle fell off. Within six months the rear drivers side handle fell off then the front passenger door handle fell off. This happened while the car was parked. Hyundai wants $350 for each handle. I can no longer have passengers in my car it is unsafe. My fear is my driver's side door handle will fall off. I am 70 and too old to climb thru the trunk. If this isn't a recall it should be. I can file a complaint with the BBB if necessary. The car was parked when the handles fell off.

I've had to replace 3 door handles, transmission, lick seat belt, sunroof motor, since buying this car. It is 9 years old and the seals on the doors are going bad. Air and pests are getting in the car. And the noise level is horrible. I was told 2 weeks ago that the rattling I keep hearing is the universal joints and frame and will cost about $1000 to fix. Car was ok until it just hot 100000 mile mark.

When we first purchased this car in 2010, a door handle fell off in the first couple of months. Hyundai replaced it free of charge. Fast forward to 2019. Car has only 45,000 miles and in the span of 2 weeks, the exterior rear right passenger and the driver side handles came off. This occurred when opening the doors. While we have a 10 year/100,000 warranty, Hyundai will not honor replacing the defect. Estimated repairs are near $500. This is obviously a safety issue with the driver's side inoperable and requiring driver to climb into car. We see many online complaints regarding this issue and are disappointed with Hyundai for not standing behind their product. We purchased this car because of reliability and trust and went on to purchase 2 more Hyundai vehicles. We keep our cars for a long time - up to 200,000 miles and have never had handles fall off.

Takata recall...I have a complaint on the paint on my car. I have never had a problem with paint on a car like this one. It seemed to be so cheap that even a sticking tape will rip off the paint.

- Petal, MS, USA

"takata recall" Sonata door handles break for no reason. In an emergency, first responders would be unable to open the doors to evacuate passengers. This has happened to 3 of my 4 doors: Car is parked. I unlock car with key in door. I push unlock button. Doors unlock. Passenger uses outside handle, but handle does not respond. Door handle is broken inside the door.car has always been parked in driveway or parking lot when this happens. No one has jerked the handle or pulled on it roughly when it broke. In all three instances a simple lift on the handle and it broke.
