Shifting from drive to park the gear gets stuck

- Plano, TX, USA

The paint is chipping away in the exterior by the door handles and the steering wheel. Also the driver seat material is starting to fall apart as well as the door trim on the driver's side.

In the last few weeks my vehicle has started to have electrical issues related to the steering column. If I turn on my right turn signal, the headlights blink or just turn off. The radio will sometimes turn off as well. If I press any of the volume buttons on the steering wheel for the radio, the car thinks I'm trying to initiate voice commands to call someone. If I try to turn on my high beams, sometimes it works, other times the headlights turn off. All of these things happen whether the vehicle is stationary or moving on any type of road. The vehicle is designed so that if you leave the headlights on, remove the keys, and lock the vehicle, the headlights turn off. It still does this, but the lights will turn on again later and try to kill the battery.

While driving down the road my car is knocking out of gear, not getting acceleration. Pretty certain its the gear shifter. Also a burning smell comes from my motor.

My car is currently at a shop being looked at. I had to have it towed because I was driving it and it started making a knocking sound and died on the side of the road. I have constant lighting issues where I have to replace headlights and brake lights every month to 2 months. Lights are very dim all the time. It has a clicking sound that never goes away. I feel very unsafe in this car. I owe 2 more years on this car and I'm afraid it's not going to make it. I have no transportation to work now and I may be at risk of losing both jobs I have. I'm so disgusted in my choice of vehicles right now.

The cap over the antenna system on the top of the back of the car flew off. No replacement they indicated unless I purchase the whole unit and I only need the protective cap. I heard a bang and was moving slow out of a shopping center stopped and looked and it was gone found only a broken piece.

Takata recall

- Jacksonville, FL, USA

I was driving from greensboro, North Carolina and was on 95 North in petersburg, va and I heard a loud boom (like a gun blast). I pulled over to the nearest rest area only to find a big whole in my sunroof. Now the dealer is stating that it won't be covered by them.

I have a 2012 Hyundai Sonata. Love the car. On a beautiful clear day, temperature was about 55 degrees. However, on March 19 as I was driving I experienced a loud shotgun type explosive noise while driving. I actually thought someone had shot at the car or something. Fortunately I was able to safely pull over to the side of the road. I had small children in the car. We were all terrified. I actually called the police. As I was waiting for the police, pieces of glass begin to fall on the sunroof visor. Thank goodness it was not open. I realized that it was the sunroof that had been compromised. Then I thought that maybe someone had thrown a brick or something. Once the police arrived, they informed me that nothing had externally caused this issue. The sunroof exploded from the inside out. They informed me that they had seen this before and that there were claims against Hyundai. So naturally I contacted my Hyundai dealership inquiring about if there was a recall. Of course, they said there was not. I had to file a claim with my insurance for repairs. I cannot imagine if I had been on the highay with the kids. I could have wrecked and could have been fatal. This issue really needs to be addressed.

On 3/13/ 17 in the morning I was 40 min to work and when I arrived to my destination of work I continue to press the gas pedal while driving but the car slowed down like it was going to cut off, so I pulled over on the side of the road and cut the car off and restarted the car, after doing this I was able to drive the car normal but with hesitation. In August I was having problems with the car not starting, so I press the button for ignition but it would not start this would happen often I took the car to the Hyundai dealership and was told that they could not detect the problem which they also kept the car overnight but did not find anything wrong. My car would not start after several encounters finally I would put the car in drive and then start the car and it would start right up everyone it would cut off. I call the dealership several times and was told that they could not do anything about this problem I became very frustrated and was not help to solve this situation and still frustrated with the problems that I encountered with this car and the Hyundai taylor dealership on Washington rd in augusta ga with time bring the car, money to be spent with diagnostic to find out that their is no problem and I am still having problem with this car- this is my complaint.

Vehicle has loose steering, vibrating and makes odd noise when accelerated

- Irving, TX, USA

The car turns off while driving and there is a loud knocking sound from the engine area. The car also hesitates, and it is a loud roaring sound from the engine area. The issues occur when the car is stationary, in motion, and on the city street and highway. When I press down on the brake the car cuts off.

I writing because I am having issue with my vehicle. It will not crank. The battery is not dead because the lights, radio comes on, it will not crank at all I have a push botton one. I took it for a oil change on July 15 2016 and had to pay a extra $75 for air filter change. Now before I got the oil change my car was fine. So on Monday 18, 2016 leaving the restaurant my car will not start.I press the botton and nothing happen I smell and saw smoke. Left up the hood nothing out of the ordinary. I read on media network, so many people having problem with their 2012 2.0 T Sonata Hyundai, car not starting and mines is one of them. I just got the car March of last year and now the car is acting up. I don't have $1200 to pay what medlin Hyundai in rocky mount can't find. The service guy says it mybe the computer of the car, when someone tried to jump start it throught it off. But I told him that before I even got a jump start. The car made a noise and white smoke came from the hood of the car. They still blaming me but I think its their fault. The services guy said that the person that change the oil and air filter the car act like it didn't want to start. So why didn't they tell me that? I feel that they mess it up or there is a issue with all the 2012 Hyundai Sonata 2.0 T that a recall need to be so the dealership car fix the all problems free. I need this to go to CEO of Hyundai. There is something truely wrong with 2012 Hyundai 2.0 T Sonata. And you know the dealership service don't even know what the problem is. He said it was no fuse blown, only thing they can assume that it's the computer is dysfunctional cause of the jump. But the car was smoking and didn't start before the jump. These Sonata is killing our pockets, even the use ones too expensive. I don't gave $1,000 and $1,000 to pay out, that they don't know what problem is. Got car from gabe rowe.

I was on my way to work on I-65 in birmingham, Alabama and my sunroof exploded. It sounded like a bomb going off and shattered pieces of glass hit the cars behind me. Nothing hit my car. I wasn't going under an overpass, nor were there trucks around me. The dealership nor Hyundai will replace it so I will have to file a claim with my insurance and pay a $500 deductible. Hyundai has recalled other vehicles (veloster) for this exact same reason but will not fix the situation with the Sonatas! my car has the panoramic sunroof, just like the velosters. This is an extremely dangerous situation and Hyundai needs to address it!! this needs to be investigated because many people are having the same issue.

Frequent issues with brakes. Latest issue, calipers needing to be replaced at 63,000 miles because the calipers are not properly decompressing. A search of recalls seems to indicate a similar issue with 2015 Sonatas. I am told by the mechanic that Hyundai Sonatas have a lot of brake issues and it is uncommon for calipers to need replacing at this stage.
