The car was parked overnight. The next day I went to start my car and smelled overwhelming gas fumes. My fuel is being depleted quicker than normal and the smell has only intensified over time. My check engine light never came on. When I lifted the hood, I saw what looked like fuel being spewed out from the high pressure fuel pump. I took my car to Hyundai and was given a $800 quote to fix the part and was never alerted to the fact that there was an open recall related to this matter.

Last week car literally doesn't start when trying to it sputters and then I have to cut it off to go finally get it to start. Today it turned over but sputtering continues 2 more times when try to to start, then 3rd time it cranks.

In the evening of 07/11/2019 I was driving my 2013 Hyundai santa on the bishop Ford expressway, when smoke began to come out of the hood. I pulled over to the shoulder, and at that time, my car was completely filled with black smoke, and the brakes completely failed, foot went right to the floor. The car coasted until it finally stopped. By this time, the car was in fire. I was able to exit before it completely engulfed in flames. There was no warning to me that this car was going to start on fire. I had the engine replaced 2 years ago because of engine failure. Two engines in 6 years is definitely not normal. I could have been killed in that car.. Hyundai needs to take responsibility.

I have replaced numerous brake lights and they keep getting melted and burnt out. Im not sure if its the electrical wiring or the actual housing of the brake light itself but this needs to be recalled. I see numerous of the same cars with the same issue. Also during summer months you can smell strong gas fumes throughout the car. As if I was directly breathing in gas. Its that bad. This is not right. This is supposed to be vented out of the vehicle. I have children in the car with me, who get dizzy and sick. This is while driving and while parked.

I've had the car since July of 2017 and about 3 months into owning it I noticed a loss in power during acceleration. I also noticed that while it's parked, after it's been driven, the car makes a popping sound in the engine area. Recently I was waiting in traffic at a stoplight and the car shuddered and acted as if it was going to shut off but then smoothed out. It has happened twice more during idling since then. When accelerating from a stopped position the car doesn't shift smoothly.

After hitting the brakes the brake lights stayed on, after a few minutes the car went to idle without warning, then back to cruise then back to idle and stayed about a minute, then back to cruise, then back to idle. Hyundai is aware of the problem, but not issuing a recall. The problem almost cause a crash with cars going around us. If it would have happen on the freeway it would have been worse.

Sonata & Santa Fe sport engine recall / Santa Fe & Sonata engine control module service campaign. My car was previously recalled and serviced for both these issues in 2015 & 2017. Both issues relate to the same problem. I have recently experienced these issues again for the past month. 1)a knocking noise from the engine that increases in frequency as the engine RPM increases. 2)reduced power and/or hesitation. 3)illumination of the check engine light in the instrument cluster. When contacting Hyundai to notify them of this problem they stated that this had already been taken care of and they are unsure they can consider this a recall or service issue again. I would still have to pay the diagnostic fees and service fees if needed even though they have already seen this issue has occured on their part previously.

While driving on the single lane toll lane of mopac expressway in austin Texas during rush hour I ran out of fuel even though the fuel indicator showed approximately 1/4 tank of gas. I called 911. The firemen can vouch for the fuel gauge reading. I was lucky that no one was hurt from the incident. I contacted Hyundai and was told there was no recall on the fuel level sending unit. I believe this is a serious public safety issue.

I have taken my car in to the Hyundai dealer three times for service to and they have been unable to recreate the problem or diagnose the problem via a code. I had the transmission fluid replaced thinking that might originally be the problem. The car hesitates in lower gears when it is in ev mode and will rev at higher RPM before slamming into gear when it goes into gas engine mode. When coming off the highway and decelerating it will slam hard into gear as the car brakes and goes into ev mode. It is not consistent and every time the car is brought into the dealer they claim there is nothing worn with the car and they cannot duplicate the issue. When pulling out from a stop sign in ev mode there is absolutely no power some times and all of sudden the gas engine will kick in and accelerate. I have had other issues with the hybrid battery just shutting down on the highway so it concerns me that there is more of an issue that needs to be addressed.

I was driving on a city street and all of a sudden with no prior warning at all, several lights popped up on my dash alerting me of an issue and my car just shut completely down. I immediately pulled over concerned it may be due to the engine recall. I had no issues with the car and never had any indicator lights on the dash light up at all ever. It turned out my fuel in tank pump needed to be replaced. I am still shocked that this happened with a 2013 model car. I am very curious if there are a lot of other people who have had this same issue. I had a Toyota Camry 2002 for many years and other older model cars and never had to replace a fuel in tank pump. I was quoted $750+ to replace the fuel pump. But this could've have been a very dangerous situation for myself and others, if I had traffic behind me and in front of me. Someone would have easily hit me not being able to have enough warning to stop.

Sonata recall on April 14, ,2017 driving at 65 mph on I 75 my engine exploded and I successfully was able to maneuver to the shoulder. I ha be subsequently been sent a recall from Hyundai about this dangerous defect that they have been aware of for over 18 months. However the destruction does not end there. Hyundai motors of North America replaced the blown engine with a new model engine and after I had been driving the vehicle again for 36 hours and under 300 miles...the new engine caught on fire totally destroying my vehicle again due to my dilgence and the cincinnati fire department we were able to extinguish the fire with damage to other people or property. Hyundai has serious quality control issues. The car was on 4 th street in downtown cincinnati when the fire broke out.

I was driving 65 mph on the garden state parkway southbound in the middle lane returning home from yankee stadium. Without any warning my car lost all power and was barely able to pull the car over to the shoulder of the highway avoiding several cars traveling at highway speed. Seven weeks later I am still awaiting car repairs from circle Hyundai in shrewsbury NJ and a cost of over $400. My engine failed with barely 20,000 miles.

While driving the car on a highway in the passing lane, I abruptly received a warning of "hybrid emergency safely pull off road" "do not drive". I had no other warnings and the car gave me no time to pull off the road and it just shut down. The car would not start again and I was stuck in the passing lane on a very busy highway.

Takata recall" as I was parking car jerk forward, engine revived, car accelerated like a bullet, brake failed. (I had brake job prior to this incident) I jumped the curb and ran over smaller trees. As I was headed toward busy highway not being able to stop until my husband put car in neutral. The next day I had taking the car to the mechanic and had front end repair done, but mechanic could not find the reason why it happened. Thursday, April 20, 2017, as I was going to park the same thing happened again that the car jerked forward, engine revived up, car accelerated at high speed like a bullet on its own with no assistance or warning and brake did not work. I am going to go and get it checked out again, but I am to afraid to drive it because it does it without warning. Car does it by itself.
