I have had to change the brake light and taillight bulbs every 2 or 3 months since I bought it in 2016. One of my lights is out again. I could not find a recall on it. I have spoken with other Hyundai Sonata owners and they are having the same issue. The housing is melting as well, making it most difficult to remove the bulbs. Not having brake lights is definitely a safety issue and hazard. The cost should not be on the owner as this has become a multiple, multiple vehicle problem. I cannot go through inspection with no brake lights and can get tickets while driving. This issue needs immediate attention and relief.

While driving down the road both interior and exterior lights shut off or blink out. This happens spontaneously or sometimes when using the turn signal. The front head lights and rear tail lights burn out frequently requiring replacement at least twice a year.

We have replaced the back brake light bulbs multiple times. Now the back right rear break light isn't working right. We took it to Hyundai and they said it was melted and the part we need to replace the wiring harness and just the part is over $400. I am not spending $400 on something that seems to be a manufacturer issue!! how has Hyundai not submitted a recall for this? there seems to be plenty of complaints about it.

I feel like I'm investing more money into this vehicle than I should. You guys know that these Hyundai Sonata 2013+ has electrical issue and should have a recall to be fixed. My horn doesn't work and my tail lights are melting after I just payed to get them fixed. This is a safety hazard !!!!!!! you guys need to get this right, it doesn't take more than 24hrs to do a investigation and approve the recalls for people to get their cars fixed, I will never buy a Hyundai again.

Hyundai is not going to do anything about hundreds to thousands of people having problems with brake light assemblies melting. I am about to file a class action lawsuit. I am concerned that me or my kids are going to be killed due to this. These bulbs have been replaced hundreds of times. They are blaming it on using bulbs that are not purchased from the dealership and that is ridiculous.

1.break light in back window remains on...as though break is depressed, when parked. Stays on 24/7! will not go off! I have tried placing the top of my foot up under break, and lightly pulling up; light flickers off for a second...in this upward motion, and then quickly returns to solid light! 2.accelerator intermittently de-accelerates...with no warning, which is dangerous when pulling into oncoming traffic, or on highway...when trying to stay with the flow of traffic. I have to keep pumping accelerator, until it "engages", once again. Very dangerous!

This car's left-rear brake light always has some problem, it burns out very often. Recently, I found that the plastic bulb holder was burned and melted too. I have read from the internet, the Hyundai 2013 Sonatas have the same common problems, not just my car has it. The brake light may burn out very often, I am afraid that I may get police ticket because of the brake light problem, and if some other vehicle hit my car in the back, the consequence will be hard. I know that Hyundai will recall certain model year 2011-2012 Sonata vehicles manufactured between Dec. 11, 2009 and June 30, 2011, according to a letter the NHTSA sent Hyundai. My car is 2013 Sonata, can I expect a recall from Hyundai to fix my car's brake light problem?

This is the second time the bulb in the back brake light melted into the socket and I've changed the bulb on the passenger side multiples times just this year. We replaced the entire brake socket when we first purchase the car and I believe now that there's a manufacturer defect and I shouldn't have to replace the brake light and socket and pay labor cost to have this replaced again.

When I'm driving the lights come on out of nowhere I even complained to the dealership about this a year and a half ago and it still keeps happening seems like they don't know what the problem is either.

My rear passenger tail light keeps shorting out. Ive replaced the bulb half a dozen times now. Ive even replaced the tail lamp housing and it keeps blowing the light. This is a very common issue with these cars and the manufacturer needs to take responsibility for it and replace it under a recall. Why should I be responsible for it? theyre the ones selling defective junk to the public. Ive had numerous problems with this car. The absolute worst car ive ever owned. Ive even had the engine replaced under recall. Totally unacceptable.

The brake lights burn out often. The dealership stated that the light housing is bad. The place you insert the bulb is burnt and melted.

Since buying this car as 2nd owner I have replaced the rear brake bulb 5 times in 1 yr. The wiring seems to be the issue. 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.

My sockets constantly melt, the connector for my starter melted and my car would not start Hyundai wanted me to pay thousands to replace my wire harness when they are aware 2011-2014 have electrical issues, also my lights do not turn off I have to unhook my battery every time I get out of my car. My brake lights do not turn off while driving so nobody knows if im stopping or notand every Hyundai I see seems to have the same problem. I know it is a defect that they do not want to claim. I have had my engine replaced, also my brakes go bad extremely fast due to an issue with my axles that were mysteriously replace a month before I bought the car but they wont cover me because im a second owner.

- King Of Prussia, PA, USA

Taillight assembly melted and had to replace entire assembly. I'm seeing a lot of complaints about this from other Sonata owners.

- Hampton, GA, USA

Both tail light housing melted requiring lights not to work. This is a manufacture issue with housing melting malfunction. Hyundai should recall these knowing housing melting issue. The customer should not be held responsible for repair cost when it's a faulty manufacturer equipment issue
