I brought my 2014 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid in for the 964- AUXILIARY CANISTER INSTALLION & 966- ENGINE MONITORING LOGIC Service recall campaigns on 12/08/21. Today, 12/21/21, in heavy traffic on the highway, my car engine abruptly shuts off, immediately decelerating, completely losing any ability to accerate while the engine light, parking break light come on along with an "electric motor warning - safely pull over and do not drive" message on the dashboard. All this happens while a high pitch alarm goes off. All happening simultaneously without warning on the highway with vehicles surrounding us driving 70 mph! This has never happened prior to today and should never happen. How we managed to avoid an accident or worse was a miracle. This was life threatening and should not be taken lightly!

on 06/29/21 10am, I was entering Hwy 287 NO. from Hwy 80's Mawah exit. I accelerated from 50 MPH to 65 MPH, the engine shuts down. I was able to pull over to the shoulder. After a few minutes, I put the car in park and the engine restarted. I drove the car towards the next exit, then the engine shuts off again. I called AAA and I am waiting right now for the car to be towed. This is a very dangerous safety issue.

Dash cracking severely over Airbags...Hyundai refuses to address the problem even though they had a PRIOR RECALL for the Same Issue. The Spiderweb Cracking is severe enough I am concerned my airbags will deploy without warning. Leather in Limited Model Seats Cracks and Disintegrates so badly the Power Motor and Components are exposed and compromised.

3rd Brake light. The tailgate light that is in the rear middle inside the vehicle goes off and the bulb base is melting due to heat. It's available for inspection upon request. Moreover, it's a known problem in many models of my vehicle. This light is a part of the safety inspection in my state VA which means it's important to have it working all the time. If the vehicle driver behind me doesn't notice that I'm in a stopping process or pressing on the brake paddle, both of us will be at risk especially on the high way. Yes the problem was confirmed by Hyundai and many service centers confirmed it. There was also a recall regarding this problem but didn't solve it permanently. It happened again and service centers don't fix those affected vehicles again. Since there was a recall before, this component was inspected and confirmed by the manufacturer. They should keep fixing it till they find a permanent solution or change the part with a better one like LED for example to reduce heat. There was no warning lamp, message, or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure. It's discovered when someone behind the affected vehicle warns me or the traffic police stops me. This is the most important brake light because at night it's the only light that warns other vehicles drivers behind me that's I'm reducing the speed or in a stop status since other right and left stop lights are shared with normal tailgate lights and might not warn others. This 3rd brake light is high enough to be seen by all vehicles behind my vehicle.

My vehicle didn't pass safety inspection due to the brakes going all the way to the floor when pressed. Hyundai case number #16939771 was created and it was taken to tony Hyundai in waipio Hawaii to be serviced. The active hydraulic booster was found faulty and replaced they stated all was fine but pedal will still touch the floor and brake sensitivity is extremely high causing full onset of brakes while driving at freeway speeds. This is a safety hazard and has nearly cause me to lose control at high speeds several times. I am unable to drive this vehicle on the freeway.

2014 Sonata limited. Headlights flicker when using left blinker signal. Sometimes go off briefly. Tried different positions on multi witch seems to be worse on auto. Vehicle will do it when stationary as well as turning. Research this and see this has been a problem on Hyundai models as far back as 2009. Son has a 2013 has the same problem.

My engine was replaced last year because of a recall. Since then progressively I've been noticing my head lights will turn themselves on and off at will. At times also the interior dash lights will do the same. Where I will have to jiggle the nob to turn them back on again. If I happened to run over a bump in the road the flickers worsen. With everything shutting down early last year I wasn't driving often when the sun was down but now that I am this issue isn't resolving itself.

Dashboard is cracked bear airbag on the passenger side. Afraid that it might burst. Recall for this problem was done in 2012 but now Hyundai will not recall. Not covered under extended warranty

Unknown: Experiencing a gas leak smell when the vehicle is in idle mode. Unknown: Experiencing rough idle coming from the engine that's intermittent.

My car started making a growing sound when I press the gas it gets louder and louder as I drive. It almost sounds like a lawn mower it's been 3 days now and it's also as of tonight struggled to turn on and when it did the growing sound was exaggeratingly loud. So if I drive it sounds bad and when it's parked and gets turned on the sound is bad it's a lose lose

There is recall 189 on my car (2014 2.0 turbo) for a possible leaking fuel line due to heat causing cracks in the fuel line. A "fix" was performed in July 2020 by the dealership which seems to be wrapping the fuel line from what I have learned. I started smelling fuel intermittently N the following months, , but wasn't driving my car much so let it slide. Also my fuel mileage and performance was off. I recently started driving my car more and noticed the smell was unbearable at times. After driving the car I pulled the engine cover off and found fuel dripping onto the valve cover and after a few minutes the plastic quick disconnect fuel line that is part of the recall was loose (I could push it in and out on the fuel pump connector) since it had lost pressure from the fuel leaking. It was leaking between the quick disconnect to the rubber isolator on the line (see pics) and was not clear where the leak was, though fuel was covering the valve cover to the front of the car on the valve cover so seemed like the connector/O ring was not the likely cause. The next morning I started the car and there was not a leak when it was cold (and the fuel line was pressurized), but after driving it for a few minutes I checked and it was dripping fuel again. I contacted the dealer that performed the recall and they said to bring it in immediately. They looked at it and said the line was bad, but since the "recall fix" had been performed Hyundai corporate would not cover the fuel line replacement. Luckily the dealer said they would and they are currently replacing it. The "recall fix" that was performed was obviously inadequate and could have led to a fire. Why wasnt the fuel line just replaced under the recall originally"??"

Started car knocking noise sounded like coming from near steering wheel after further investigation coming from air condition. Did it for 15 seconds and then stopped. If the defrost is on is when it makes the knocking noise and the level is on 3. it was only making the noise when I started the car but now if I change to the ac or heat it starts the knocking noise.

While driving my Sonata an error appeared on my dashboard stating 'hybrid system warning! safely stop and do not drive. Check brakes." When this occurs the gas pedal goes to the floor and the brakes grinds my tires. U can hear a loud chiming like sound coming from the car. I'm reading this issue with a number of Sonata hybrid.

Attempting to push brake pedals unable to initially stop but then came to a screeching holt. Grinding noise from front brakes. Vibrating sound from brake line.problem is persistent believe it may be the hydraulic power unit.

When braking and turning, in forward or reverse, engine intermittently revs and propels car. Throwing it into park somewhat slows it down, but I have hit a car I reverse, and almost ran into a building two weeks ago - stopped by heavy shrubs leaving the whole front end wrecked. Mechanic and Hyundai have not been able to replicate, but it happens only intermittently, maybe 6 times in two years. In parking lots, driveway or drive through food window.

Sun roof shattered while driving. Nothing hit the sunroof to cause this.

I was on the interstate during torrential downpour, my car's check engine light started flashing and I couldn't accelerate above 2,000 RPM or go over 60 mph. It was very dangerous. I took the car to the dealership to be repaired. After 3 days I picked the car up, and they said they replaced the knock sensor and the car was fixed. Since then this has happened 3 more times. Car is currently in the shop. I started researching on my own, and I read that the knock sensor was an update Hyundai added after the recall of the engines in these cars. This knock sensor is actually protecting my car (and me) by putting it in 'limp mode' because it senses something dangerous in the engine. I have contacted Hyundai Consumer Affairs to inform them I am afraid to drive the car because this has happened so many times and clearly is't fixed, and I'm sure it has to do with the recalls they have and engine fires. They've done nothing. Last time I went to get the car the manager at the dealership said that many people were having issues, but Hyundai doesn't allow them to actually fix the problem. They have to do work-around fixes instead of the actual repairs needed. The manger said he predicts that "there will be a class action lawsuit because of Hyundai not doing anything to actually fix this engine issue". I don't know who to turn to, but I' am afraid to drive the car. I don't want to be driving down the road and the engine catch fire. I'm currently pregnant and it has been very stressful dealing with this issue. I fear the dealership will disable the knock sensor so that it stops putting the engine on limp mode and then I will have a fire. I also fear that the knock sensor may not work correctly next time and the engine may catch fire. I need the engine fixed. I hope by submitting this complaint it will help get this engine problem solved for me and consumers.

The (mil) malfunction indicator light came on and my car just suddenly stopped running when I pulled up to a stop sign, when I braked for stop sign to make a left turn, while driving, leaving walmart shopping center. I checked the NHTSA website and found that the (mil)malfunction indicator light is under investigation
