Car hesitates under acceleration while driving. Does it on road and freeway. Break lights are always going out have to replace every other week possibly have problems with wire harness. Shocks and struts started making noise right before the 60,000 mile mark wears off tire because of it. Car started having similar problems early on when I bought the car at around 12,000 miles for the acceleration. Break light problems around 60,000 miles suspension around the same time. Have had the engine replace twice on this car. And currently in the shop again.

Vehicle stalls/dies while driving. It stalled 2 times but when I pulled over, it would start right away. While trying to make it home, it stalled for a third time and while pulling over it started smoking so bad I thought the vehicle was going to catch on fire. Vehicle had to be towed. There is an engine recall for this vehicle but dealer is giving me the runaround. Very disappointed with how Hyundai has handled the incident that almost caused an accident that could off been deadly.

Driving at interstate speeds, will down shift and drastically lose speed while in blue mode. No warning lights of any kind. No apparent issue at lower speeds. Engine does not rev up high because of rev limits. Drops from 6 gear down to 4 gear quickly loosing speed. Leading to impedance of traffic flow. A couple of time this happened when merging on to interstate. Had to ride on side to next exit. I have learned if I go into sport shift mode I do not experience this issue. I have taken to dealership, but unable to repeat issue on test drive. They did a diagnosis and cleared some history codes but it did not help. Again this happens unexpectedly.

Engine failure: I own a 2012 Hyundai Sonata. On July 2, 2019, I was driving home from work on the highway in the far left lane, driving approximately 60 miles an hour when suddenly the engine stalled and the car would no longer accelerate. It then started making a knocking noise. This was a very scary occurrence especially to happen on the highway. But fortunately, I was able to slowly cross over, safely get off at the nearest exit, and pull over to the side of the road. Several warning indicator lights were flashing on the car (including the engine light) and I detected a slight burning odor (but no fire). I was able to restart the vehicle but it stalled again and eventually was towed to an independent mechanic who diagnosed a complete engine failure. The vehicle wasn't repaired but towed to the closest official Hyundai dealership (256 North franklin St, hempstead, NY) for assistance. The following recalls are associated with my vehicle: Recall# 17V226000 (engine), and #15V568000 (engine). At the time of occurrence the vehicle had oil in the tank and had approximately 88,000 miles on it which should not have affected the engine at all. I sincerely hope that by reporting this incident, it will assist the Hyundai dealership in repairing or replacing the engine in my vehicle as stated in the recall and thereby preventing this from ever happening again. This is a very dangerous incident and wouldn't want to ever subject myself or my family (who also ride in this vehicle) to a terrible incident such as this or worse.

My car's check engine light came on and I took it to the shop for diagnosing. The code P1326 came up and nobody can figure out the problem. My car doesn't accelerate properly and take a minute to shift gears and drive properly. There has been open communication on the issue by other people.

Last night after parking, my break lights remained lit. My father and I both checked either anything inside was depressing the brake pedal, and the emergency break was not engaged. I drove about 20 miles to work the next morning (lights still on). Parked at work, lights stayed on. I was driving on highway and tried to accelerate around 50 mph. Car braked/decelerated instead of accelerating. I exited highway immediately and pulled into a neighborhood. I am able to pull the lever to change into R/N/D without pressing the brake down (you should have to press break first before switching). I know this was a recall issue for elantras and Sonatas at some point, but I don't believe it included my cars year. There have been so many recall things, it seems maybe Hyundai just makes faulty products. 2012 Hyundai Sonata. 78,000 miles. Traction light also illuminated while driving this am, but perhaps unrelated as it was foggy and so maybe slippery?

While driving and pressing the accelerator it acts as if its not getting any gas, so when I remove my foot and repress it, it moves right along. It has happened 2 times in the last 24 hours. Now, I exited the car and went into the house and the brake lights are still on.

- Houston, TX, USA

While driving at any speed with the gas pedal depressed, the car will suddenly slow down when I hit a pothole or bump in the road. It does the same thing when using cruise control. For example, I'll be driving 50mph and I'll hit a bump in the road and my RPM and speed will drop. If I take my foot off of the gas then re press it, it re engages and accelerates again.

- Durham, NC, USA

At any speed the engine will return to idle without moving the gas pedal. It will do the same thing when using cruise. Pushing the gas pedal will re-engage the engine. It acts as if you take your foot off the gas. There are no warning lights and everything acts normal (lights, power steering etc). This started in mid March 2019. It is becoming a daily issue.. my wife is scared to drive it. I took it to my Hyundai dealer and they could find nothing wrong. It did not do it for them. They said it showed no codes. I keep very good care of my Sonata. It has 180,000. My dealer is noller Hyundai topeka ks.

Had motor replaced from a previous recall, 4days after this fix I noticed a rough idle. Went to numerous shops incld dealership was told by dealership that recall was done and any other repairs would be out of pocket. Problem has progressed from rough idle and engine noise to poor acceleration and mistimed boosts. As in when entering highway car doesnt accelerate very fast very long delay before boost intiates. Once at desired speed when slowing down car boosts without pressure to accelertator!!! now that winter has arrived, sporadically on cold start car idles even rougher and sounds as if it with shut off. When driving in traffic car idles rough then shuts off!! no power steering! no lights ! no power! this happened whilst car is in drive and in motion! I try to avoid hwys and night time driving when I can as im scared to death of this car. I purchased it used in dec2017 11 days later intial issues began with car loosing power. Now after issue was "fixed" by replacement motor same intermediate lost of power issues again but with the added boosting issue as well now.

The contact owns a 2012 Hyundai Sonata. While pulling into a parking space at approximately 10 mph, the vehicle accelerated independently and crashed into a curb and a handicap sign. Afterwards, the vehicle accelerated rapidly without warning while in reverse. As a result, the contact crashed into a parked vehicle. The air bags did not deploy. A police report was not filed and there were no injuries. Fairfax Hyundai (10925 fairfax blvd, fairfax, Virginia 22030, (703) 352-0444) was made aware of the crash and requested that a test drive be conducted.

Takata recall when you press on the gas the car stalls then drives. When you turn on the headlights the back tail light goes out. I took my car to Hyundai multiple times to get these and the air bags checked out and still they didn't fix nothing. When I first got the car I had totake it to Hyundai bc it smelled like smoke they fixed it but now when U turn on the air the car don't excel the way it does when the heat is one

After driving for a few minutes on highway, my 2012 Sonata hybrid will start to jump and buck. It slowly loses power and when it reaches lower speeds (under 40 mph) as I try to accelerate it will feel like it's trying to catch the next gear but won't. I will continue to lose power so I have to try to leave highway or pull over, which can be dangerous on a high speed road. It has happened three times since August 2018. Just took back to dealership but first two times they said they could not replicate problem while test driving it and all diagnosis indicated the car is fine. I see in some web sites that other users nation-wide have had the very same problem but with no resolution at hand. This is a very concerning safety issue as the last time it happened the car behind me almost run into me as my car lost power and speed rapidly and started to buck/stutter.

When attempting to initiate cruise control on the highway only the on/off button will work, show with the illumination of the cruise light on the dash console. The set and resume buttons will only work approximately 30% of the time and the cancel button never works. When the system is allowing me to set it the only way to disengage it is via the brake.

- Chester, VA, USA

When the headlights are in use, the car randomly loses power, headlights turn off, entire car just shuts down without warning, then after several seconds, powers back on. The lights, engine, everything turns off. Also, when headlights are in use, cruise control and stability do not work. The vehicle is in motion and this has happened on highways and city streets. I have taken my vehicle to the two nearest dealers and they refused to fix the vehicle. Generally, this happens when braking, using turn signals, changing to hi beam/low beam, but has also happened for no reason at all.
