Headlamps and taillights continues to go out been up to the dealership over 7X this year.

I noticed as I was using my turn signal as I was getting on the highway at 5:00 in the morning that my headlights had appeared to go out. A few seconds later they came back on. I thought maybe I was seeing things but then it happened again as I was signaling to change lanes. For the rest of the 25 miles to get to work on a busy highway I stopped using my turn signal for fear that my headlights would not come back on. I took by car to the dealer to have the headlight issue and check engine light issue fixed. I was called while my car was still at the dealer that they could not replicate the headlight issue and that they replaced some part that had to do with the oil. Of course with the engine only being 2 years old I had to pay. I paid $458 and when I left the dealer the check engine light was off. I let my nephew borrow my car for a week and when I picked it up the check engine light was back on and was still having the headlight issue when signaling. I took it back to the dealer to have the same issues looked at again. A week goes by and I hear nothing but I do get an automated voicemail from the dealer regarding a great incentive to trade in my car for a newer model. No thanks!! I'm done with Hyundai. I call the dealer to check on the status of my car twice and get no answer. I drive to the dealer to speak to someone. Once again I am told they cannot replicate the headlight issue and diagnostic shows no issues but it could be the turn signal switch. Then the check engine light was on because the cam shift sensor went bad. Now I'm trying to figure out why this was not found the first time I brought the car in. So now I'm told the shop foreman was out all week and they are waiting for him to look at my car to see if he can figure out the headlight issue. I'm really irritated at this point and will be trading this car in and it won't be with Hyundai.

2014 Sonata 56,000 miles I am requesting further information into my blinker switch makes my headlights flicker on and off when in use of the blinker. This is absolutely terrifying when this happened Friday night... and reproducible; I lost all seeing capability for a moment. As a mother and I travel to and from work during night hours I fear for my safety and others safety. I fear in the safety and design/construction in the vehicle; as stated I would like further investigation into why the headlights flickering, as well resolution and repair. I have found others on complaint sites with the identical issue and same year Sonata.

Headlights go off when using turn signal. Vehicle does not have to be in motion for this to occur. When this happens, inside dash lights will usually be brighter - the same as when the headlight switch is in the off position. This presents a great risk for nighttime driving. Not only are you without exterior lighting, but you are also blinded from the sudden change of interior lighting. I believe the faulty part is the multifunction switch because it can be tapped or quickly turned off and back on to get the headlights to come back on. Sometimes the turn signal does not even need to be activated for the headlights to turn off - only touched. It mostly occurs when signaling to turn left.

My brakes lights stopped working in mid air. This can pose a danger to other drivers who are riding behind me with my vehicle having no brake indication. This happened in my 2009 Santa Fe and had multiple rear ends. This is a big concern for myself and my families safety as well as other.

I have never needed to replace my brake lights so they are the original ones my car came with. After being informed my brake lights were out when I went to check them the light bulbs were melted to the socket and have not been able to get any replacement light bulbs to work even with new sockets.

Since I bought this car in Oct 2014 I've had problems with the lights. I can be driving and they cut off. I can turn on my turn signal and the lights go out. Or I'll be driving and the inside lights come on by themselves. When I drive my steering wheel shakes.

While driving in the dark, head lights turn off sporadically. At the same time, interior dash lights brighten as though day-time mode is initiated. Usually happens when turn signal is being engaged/disengaged, however it also happens randomly on its own. Can be disorienting to driver. May be construed by other motorists as a nuisance or threat.

When I turn the left turning signal on, the front lights flickers and switch between high and low beams. Sometimes they turn off. Also the interior dash lights flickers and turn brighter. I also have to replace front and back light bulbs 3 or 4 times in less than a year. I went online and these problems seemed to be a recurrent complain.

The headlights continuously go out on the car. The headlights haven't been as bright as they were when the car was first purchased. I have replaced the dim light bulbs at least four times and the bright light bulbs at least twice. I'm wondering if there's a wiring issue

The contact owns a 2014 Hyundai Sonata. While driving various speeds or while the vehicle was parked, the brake lights failed to illuminate when the brake pedal was depressed. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was diagnosed that a bulb had blown and there was an overheating issue, which caused a mechanism in the light bulb to melt. The light fixture needed replacement. The vehicle was repaired, but the issue persisted on several occasions. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue. The VIN was invalid. The failure mileage was approximately 30,000.

Potential Sonata fire hazard info.........car purchased new in May 2014. Car is 2 1/2 yrs. Old with 42 K mileage. While replacing car's oem rear burned out brake light incandescent bulb at home during stationary, owner discovered both rear brakelight bulbs on rt/ lft sides had burned out and melted with normal use, smell of plastic melting and melted both side bulb housing, brakelight tail light assembly and connector wires. Both main bulbs could not be extracted for routine maintenance due to melted housing. Owner took car to local dealership who had to "crack open" both light bulb housings to replace bulbs for tail & brake lights due to melted fusing of plastic parts. Car under oem warranty; suggest you have new led tail lights & assembly installed for less heat and potential melting of assembly.
