Engine recall I was driving home from work and suddenly loud ticking sounds starting coming from the engine. Then the power almost went to nothing and the car started slowly down (as if the car had been turned off (it was still on). The check engine light came on and the ticking sound got louder. I was able to safely drive off without any accidents. I got home and called several machanics to see if anyone could come by and see what's going on as I didn't feel safe to drive the car. Today a mechanic came and said the following: Check engine light on. Loud valve train noises and faint knocking can be heard at idle. Dead misfire on one cylinder. Noise is mechanical. One dtc returned (PO365 - can sensor B ckt malfunction). Per mechanic - strongly suspect engine is in early stages of common failure. Inquire w/mfg engine recall. It is showing same symptoms as previous year recall for Sonata hybrids and engine failures. There is low of power and loud ticking noises from the engine.

- Elk Grove, CA, USA

Around a year ago (Feb 14, 2018), I received a message "hybrid system warning, please stop now". my car shut down and thank god, I was pulling into my apartment complex. My car was inspected and was told it was the tps system. That was replaced and I was on my way. Over 7 months ago (July 2018), I received the same message; "hybrid system warning, please stop vehicle now". after the warning, my car stopped immediately and this time the road was clear and I was able to coast to the side of the road. After thornton road Hyundai inspected my care again, this time they stated it was the motor. After over $5000 worth of work here it is April 2019 and the same warning. This time I was stranded on a busy highway. Once the tow truck guy got there, he escorted me to his truck to be safe. I have looked into this warning over a year and no one seems to know the problem. This should be a recall and all Hyundai dealers should be made aware of what this warning is. We as Hyundai owners need answers and help. I cannot afford to put money into a car when the problem is only being patched up.

While driving home, I heard a muffled knocking noise coming from engine when accelerating. At the next traffic light, I waited for the light to change, and when I started moving I realized the engine did not start from the hybrid. As I dangerously maneuvered the car across the right lane, I was able to pull over to a safe spot and the warning chime came on saying I had low voltage in hybrid battery. Had car towed home and then to hyudai dealer. They notified me that the engine was seized due to poor maintenance, which was ridiculous. Oil has always been changed by me or a regular garage. After viewing other comments by people who had the same exact problem I realized that this was apparently an ongoing problem with the Sonata hybrid engine. Still trying to get dealer to replace engine.

Right after I started my vehicle the engine starting making an unusual sound the other day. The noise gets worse when driving.

I have seen several hundred people making this same complaint about their hybrids not just the regular 2.0 and 2.4 gas engines.
