2014 Hyundai Sonata Complaint Log

My tail lights, brake lights and head lights continue to go out. I have replaced them many times myself and have taken it to the Hyundai dealership. They temporarily fixed them but couldn’t promise how long they would work. They said to fix them would cost over 1000$. This is a safety hazard as not having brake lights could cause serious accidents. This doesn’t seem Normal as I have never In my entire time I have been driving had to continually replace lights. Sounds like a manufacturer defect and I feel like the dealership should have to pay, not out of my pocket. I have been pulled over by the police and have had to explain why my lights don’t work. It’s scary because I never know if they are working or not. I did not get any warnings on my dashboard that lights were out. I have also googled this problem and it seems like a lot of the same year of Hyundai vehicles are having the same issues.

I ALREADY REPLACED MY ENGINE BECAUSE THE CAR ALWAYS BURNED ALOT OF OIL. I NEVER HAD A OIL LEAK BUT I HAD TO CONSTANTLY ADD OIL TO THE CAR A COUPLE OF TIMES A MONTH. AFTER REPLACING THE ENGINE I DROVE THE CAR FOR ABOUT 4 MONTHS. THE CAR STARTED STALLING ON ME (NO WARNING LIGHTS) THEN WOULD START BACK UP AFTER A FEW TRIES. THIS LAST TIME I DROVE THE CAR I WAS DRIVING MY CAR ON A MAIN BUSY ROAD. I STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT WAITING FOR IT TO TURN GREEN. THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN, I WENT TO PROCEED AND THE CAR JUST STALLED ON ME AGAIN. NO WARNING LIGHTS OR ANYTHING TO GIVE ME AN INDICATION THAT THE CAR WAS HAVING ISSUES. I TRIED TO RE-START THE CAR AND IT WOULDNT START. I HAD TO GET MY VEHICLE TOWED TO A MECHANIC SHOP. IT HAS CURRENTLY BEEN IN THE SHOP FOR ABOUT A MONTH NOW AND THE MECHANIC IS HAVING A HARD TIME TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT'S WRONG WITH THE CAR. I WAS TOLD PREVIOUSLY THAT THERE WERE RECALLS ON THE ENGINE BUT EVERYTIME I CALL THE HYUNDAI DEALERSHIPS THEY TELL ME THERE ARE NO RECALLS FOR MY VEHICLE. I HAVE ALREADY PAID ATLEAST $3,500 IN REPAIRS AND STILL HAVING ISSUES

The contact owns a 2014 Hyundai Sonata. The contact stated while driving approximately 55 MPH, the engine started making an abnormally loud knocking sound. The contact stated the check engine light had started flashing. The vehicle started losing motive power and was pulled off the roadway. The vehicle was turned off but failed after several attempts to restart. The contact had the vehicle towed to an independent mechanic. The mechanic diagnosed the vehicle and determined that the engine had seized and needed to be replaced. The contact stated that mechanic related the engine failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 17V226000 (Engine and Engine Cooling). The vehicle had not been repaired. The manufacturer had not been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 150,000.

On Feb 15th 2023 my daughter was driving my 2014 Hyundai Sonata at the posted speed limit of 55 MPH on a 2 lane blacktop when the car suddenly and without any warning at all, lost all power and became unresponsive while traveling with other vehicles behind her, in front of her and in the opposing lane of travel. Without enough of an improved shoulder to pull to the right and a steep embankment on that side of the roadway as well, she was forced to veer to the left with other cars approaching. She had minimal braking, steering and no response to depressing the accelerator pedal at all. She was able to direct the car onto a paved portion of a feeder road and finally got the car stopped. The cabin filled with smoke and there was smoke all around the car but no fire was ever found. These vehicles are dangerous to the public and have a known engine defect that because of this the manufacturer has implemented a software patch known as KSDS and with this recall in place should have allowed my daughter to reach a safer place than being stranding on the side of a busy hi-way. My car had this patch installed and I was assured that this recall would allow the car to be driven a safe distance and it would be obvious when this patch was active and the engine would be put in "Limp mode" This did not happen, the engine locked up

After driving for about 45 minutes, car began to shake and make loud knocking noises, and the check engine and oil light both came on. After adding 3-4 quarts of oil in order to get to the destination, it seemed okay. After turning the car off, and back on, after about 15 minutes of driving the shaking, loud knocking noises and check engine light turned back on. At this point, the car was towed to a local mechanic. The mechanic noted that this was a problem with the engine and oil line and should be brought back to Hyundai because there is an active recall regarding this issue. Upon bringing the car to the Hyundai dealership, they agreed it was a recall issue and would fix it under the recall. Two days later we were informed from Hyundai that it would be $8,000 to replace the engine because the car is about 2,000 miles over the recall warranty and they will not make any exceptions. After calling Hyundai's corporate number, they agreed that it cannot be fixed under the recall warranty. They also confirmed that they never notified us regarding this recall. If we had known, we could have fixed this while it was under the mileage. The car is not drive-able and we are devastated by the lack of communication from Hyundai and refusal to fix this issue. There was no warning and while we are grateful nobody was hurt, this is extremely dangerous and we are now left without a car!!

A family member alerted me that my passenger side brake light was out. I went and purchased a replacement bulb to change the light. As soon as I went to pull the old bulb out I noticed the housing the bulb sits in was warped, cracked, and discolored like it had been burned. The old bulb can't even be pulled out without having to break the bulb because the plastic is so warped. Being unable to change the brake light is a hazard because I can't alert other drivers when I am stopping. Also if the bulb got hot enough to burn the housing on the tail light it could have potentially started a fire. There weren't any warning lights that a brake light was out.

The lighting system on the front and back lights, tail lights and brake lights has shortages and melts the housings that the bulbs go in. I have had two of these cars with the same identical problem.It’s very dangerous because the tail lights work whenever and me as the driver can’t see behind me nor the person driving behind me will know that I’m stopping. I can’t drive my vehicles at all at this present time and have made an appointment the dealership, Hyundai and filed a complaint as well. Something has to be done quickly to put this on the recall list because it’s very dangerous for myself and others on the national highways. I see a lot of the same identical cars as mines with the same exact issues. It’s ridiculous!!!!

I have a 2014 Hyundai Sonata, when I get in and press the brake pedal it is hard to push in and the car won't start till I try to pump the break pedal hard several times till it gives just a bit, then I can start the car up. I know there was a recall for the 2011 and 2012 cars, this report mimics the issue those cars have had a recall for. Once the car starts the brake pedal does work normally, till it sits and then it gets hard to push in again. I took the car to the dealer to be looked at and they wanted to keep it for a week before anyone would look at it, with $200 to start . I couldn't be without a car for that long so they didn't keep it.There were no warning lights and never have been. My fear is that the brakes will fail while driving..

Hello! I bought a car at an auction, it had the crankshaft bearings turned and it was knocking. I decided to repair it myself in my workshop . When I disassembled it, all the bearings and crankshaft necks were erased there (I kept all the details) the connecting rod on the 3rd cylinder was black and the bearings were erased into dust. I repaired it myself, but it still doesn't sound right (but errors don't burn) . A friend told me about the problems associated with this model and I found out on the website that there is a review on the engine. Therefore, I immediately went to the Hyundai dealership, where I was refused a recall saying that I had a good engine because the engine error lamps do not burn. To which I objected by saying that the recall policy warns of bringing the engine to jamming and a possible accident (despite the fact that the engine was already on the verge of this). In fact, the motor has already died. What should I do next. I understand if there is a review of a poor - quality engine , it needs to be replaced ( I didn 't come up with it ) . Thanks for understanding.

I bought a car from rightway automotive Fort wayne Indiana it's been in the shop several times and currently in the shop since December 22, 2022 to still today February 11th 2023. This time my car is at hoosier car store in Fort wayne Indiana and has told me several times it done and then keeps turning around with another problem and I can't get rightway or hoosier to respond and tell me what's going on

Sounds like engine is gonna blow and the oil is where it needs to be.

Headlights need to be replaced every three months. Brake lights turnt out and melted the plastic around it. Had to replace the entire light unit. Now, the breaklight doesnt work at all. Even after replacing the entire light unit and bulbs.

I bought my car at 97k miles in June 2022. From the 2nd day of having it, my car was shaking horribly. I sent it back to the dealership they said the front motor mount was collapsed. They repaired it but said there is still shaking but they don't know why. About 2 months later, I get in with Universal Hyundai and they only say that I need my axels and spark plugs replaced along with the air filters. They do a balance and alignment on my car as well as an oil change. The balance and alignment was either not done properly or my car just needs it done super regularly. Not too long after while I'm driving out of a friend's neighborhood my car is in drive and I'm going around 5 mph, my car stops with all of the lights on. I turn my car off and back on and carefully drive it home. Also, my car key always gets locked up in the ignition. One day I go to turn my car off and my ignition locks and I had to get my car towed and my ignition replaced with new car keys. Later, I take it to my mechanic to see what he can do and to get another oil change. He said he doesn't think it's my axels but my motor mounts and other things. Then my check engine light goes off a week later and it's my power train and anti-lock brake system. The next day on the way back to the mechanic my car slows down, I was only going 40ish mph, and all of the lights are shown. I turn my car off and on and I get it to my mechanic (my mechanic only down minor stuff btw). I start hearing a woodpecker noise from the engine and my mechanic tells me to get it to the shop asap. The next morning, I call my warranty to see if it's covered and they tell me that my engine will blow if I drive on it. And now my car will be in the shop for a month. And I can't find out the service done to my car prior to me owning it. And every time I take it somewhere they don't know what's up with it completely.

I got my oil changed and in 2 weeks time I noticed a burning smell and checked my oil and there was not a drop of oil. I noticed there was an open investigation into Hyundai vehicles and how some are using excessive amounts of oil with no prior warning signs. Just wanted it documented that this is a legit issue and needs to be addressed ASAP..[XXX] INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

I am the owner of a 2014 Hyundai Sonata. That car is 8 years old and has 69K miles on it. At no time did Hyundai Motor Company notify that my car was impacted by an engine failure recall. On November 10, 2022 the car was being driven. At no time did it give any potential warning, instead the car fully stopped while in motion at 25 mph. There was no warning, no lights appeared on the dashboard until the car had stalled itself out. When I called the local dealer where the car was purchased, I was promised a call back. That call never came. I was able to contact someone at corporate who did confirm the vin number of my car is on an engine recall. I was told to contact a local dealer to find someone to replace the recall alerts. Again the local SURESKY dealer cannot help me. After spending 4 hours on the phone, I was able to connect with someone in a service department who indicated that the return volume of these car is so extensive that they are backlogged 3 to 4 more. I would encourage all users of this car to immediately end use of it. I would encourage all users to look into local LEMON laws. This entire recall was handled completely wrong by Hyundai Corporate who. Nobody can answer questions, they can only pass you around. The company should be investigated for consumer fraud at the state and federal level. The company should be investigated for proper accounting, proper tax reporting, for the recall.

I've received a recall and have tried on 3 occasions to set up an appointment at the local Hyundai dealership in West Monroe, Louisiana. I've tried 2 times online and 1 time I called and was told they probably wouldn't call me back that I could take care of it online. Please advise what i should do as this recall sounds important. Thank You,

Faulty lights: flickering off and on while driving at night, park light fail to come on but break lights work, unable to use the lights in “auto” mode or else they flicker. Flickering with left front turn signal. There are multiple complaints about this issue on YouTube and when you Google the car and check reviews. This issue puts my life, my children’s lives, and so many others lives in danger.

The engine seized while driving the vehicle (vehicle belongs to my daughter). Towed to the mechanic. Replaced battery and starter, both burned up due to issue. Mechanic tried starting the car again to trouble shoot additional issues and burned up the new starter due to seized engine. Mechanic recommending to call the local dealer because of known class action recall on the 2014 Sonata engines for this problem.

In the GDI engines, the fuel is injected into a camshaft-driven high-pressure pump and use a higher than normal compression ratio for increased power as well as “dished” pistons for increased combustion in the cylinder. But GDI engine defects allegedly cause oil consumption, restricted oil flow, sudden stalling, engine failures and non-collision fires. The plaintiff says Hyundai ramped up production and got in a rush which caused the workmanship to suffer when the GDI engines were created. Engine blocks, pistons, connecting rod bearings and other components are defective due to the workmanship. By failing to fit together, the engine components allegedly fail prematurely which causes metal debris to travel through the engine oil. Contaminated oil then causes a lack of engine lubrication which damages the GDI engines

I started my 2014 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid and proceeded out of the garage. Almost immediately out of the garage, a loud high alarm went off and the dashboard read "Electric Motor Warning - Safely pull over and do not drive". My vehicle simultaneously lost any ability to accelerate and slowly tried to get the vehicle into a parking spot in our apartment's driveway. This was not the first time this has happened. This same thing happened earlier this year and required a recall service that I was told to be fixed after being without a vehicle for 3 months!

Last night 9/5/22 I went to change out my brake light on driver side which should have been very simple when next thing I know I’m having a very hard time twisting the socket to remove from housing because it had fused the plastic together from burning. Idk if you think it’s normal but to me that’s a very susceptible spot for a car fire. Anyways I decided to check passenger side and again same issue. The last pic was of the passenger side burnt end of the brake light.

Hello I need your help! According to all info my car it has an engine recall when it starts with losing oil. Which my car has been doing, losing oil. The recall engine could seize up, stall, stop, but they are telling me that because my car is out of warranty 60k for second owner, they cannot repair it, this is a hazard to all. According to the records Mrs. [XXX] (former Employee at Hyundai) pulled up on my car she said was covered and I was under the 120 thousand miles. this report also clearly shows that recalls over the 60k were covered and fixed on my car, this should be covered as well a recall is a recall and has nothing to do with warranty. I had been waiting for months to get approval I have been trying to get ahold of the service staff member [XXX] to no avail. Finally, I decided to contact the dealership online and found the employee I was trying to contact no longer works for Hyundai. I was not notified nor was another employee assigned to my case. And what is even more peculiar is I was able to leave a message for that employee[XXX] and the receptionist did not tell me she no longer working there or that someone else was taking her accounts. So, after leaving a message on-line I received a call from [XXX] At the palatine Hyundai. I explained the situation and how much time I have been waiting. He submitted my documents right away the next day [XXX] told me it was denied due to my car being out of warranty. I am not sure what warranty has to do with the recall of engines. This is clearly a hazard. I am checking the oil consistently it sometimes very low and a quart is needed. I am being told… They will not even look at my car for the recall because of being out of warranty(60k). I received a text saying to call right away to get it taken care of but once the denied paperwork came back, they cancelled and said thanks for letting us service your car when I wasn't, even in the dealership much less having had service. And no one tr INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

Head Lights Go Out Completely at Highway Speed Headlight dimmer switch fails to switch between high and low beam. Lights can go completely out with zero viability during nighttime driving conditions. Speed of vehicle seems not to be a factor in the headlamp failures. May also fail to dim from high-beam to low-beam in the instant of oncoming traffic. Causes a great deal of distraction to safe driving as attention of diverted to fiddling with the headlight/turn signal switch stalk. Lights have sometimes gone completely out (dark) at highway speed in congested traffic conditions. Has been an issue since I purchased the vehicle in 2015 with under 17,000 miles but the problem is getting progressively more frequent. I am concerned that in the future, I may not be able to get the head lamps to come back on, while I am at highway speed and no chance for a safe emergency exit of the roadway.

On Aug 21,2022 I was driving my car and making a right turn on a street called Armstrong Mill and the vehicle just died out on me. Me being a female not knowing anything about cars I thought it was my battery or alternator. I replaced them both totaling almost 1100 dollars. The car still wouldn't start. The mechanic checked my oil and it was DRY which was odd being that i had just got a oil change 07/01/2022,which i have proof of as well as 4 other oil changes i got this yr. So i get to work that night and i start to research. I have only had this car since Oct 20,2021 so I was so confused. I found the recall and civil suit against Hyundai. I called Don Franklin Hyundai the next morning the service guy, Chris, asked for the last 6 numbers of my vin. I provided it to him and he said yes there is a open recall on you vehicle i have to get the process started but i have to warn you they can deny it because its been open for so long even tho you are a new owner of the vehicle. Well that is exactly what they did. I got denied for having sludge on the engine which i was told came from poor maintenance of the vehicle concerning the oil change. I got a oil change in Jan, April, May and also July. I got the air fixed in the cars air conditioning and all i kept this car in shape. There was no problems with this car until this engine. Now i was just told by BBB autoline that my complaint was not eligible because per BBB national program extended warranty claims vehicles purchased after 07-01-2020 that did not have the ksds performed prior to the occurence or engine concern receive the benefits of the lifetime warranty. I had no clue of this was not made aware AT ALL! I need help I was financing this car and now nothing. Please tell me my next steps. My children and myself could have been hurt badly why do they even have these cars still on the market with such a dangerous recall.

I was on the interstate and my engine started to sputter and the check engine light came on. I quickly decelerated from about 70 down to under 50. I was able to safely pull over to the shoulder and had to have my vehicle towed.

The contact owns a 2014 Hyundai Sonata. The contact stated that while his son was driving approximately 40 MPH, the check engine warning light illuminated. The contact then stated that the vehicle failed to accelerate above 45 MPH. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic and the mechanic referenced NHTSA Campaign Number: 22V312000 (Fuel System, Gasoline) and stated that the fuel system feed line failed and caused the engine to be starved of fuel.

The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 56,000.

The latch of the trunk will not release. There is no way to open the trunk because the latch itself has a defect as reported in the NHTSA report 21V619000 recall #208 for the 2016/2017 model year. There is no way to fold down back seats because the seat release is inside the trunk. The key, interior trunk release nor the key fob will release the trunk because there is a defect in the latch system. The NHTSA has already flagged this as an issue, but the years effected need to be expanded, as the recall was too narrow.

The contact owns a 2014 Hyundai Sonata. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 22V312000 (Fuel System, Gasoline) however, the part to do the repair was unavailable. The contact stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was not made aware of the issue.

Parts distribution disconnect.

Hyundai Recall 953 is not being properly reported for certain Vins. This issue is causing 953 to go without being properly fixed and causing prolonged engine oil leaking back into the engine. This is effecting manufactures responsibility to fix their safety recalls. Manufacturers claim the engine fails due to lack of oil… knowing 953 causes oil to burn excessively. Without proper reporting of active safety recalls they’re not able to get fixed causing multiple issues down the road for second and third owners on certified used vehicles and a vehicle that will have engine failure despite any maintenance.

On our way back home from a road trip, the Sonata lost horsepower and I was only able to drive at about 40 mph (on highway). Once we reached the next town, stopped at an AutoZone since the check engine light came on. Tested the issue and it looks like the car went into safe mode and there was an issue with engine oil consumption. Added more oil and continued our way home. We were stopping about every hour to "rest" the car for about 30 minutes and recheck oil levels. After the 30 minutes, we continued on our way home. Once we pulled up tp our home, the engine died. We were fortunate that it didn't happen on the road. We haven't been able to turn the car back on. It has been like this since July 2022. Sitting in our driveway. We have contacted the dealership where we purchased the car and they refuse to have the car towed to their location and they won't even look at our vehicle. Currently, our VIN is not coming up with the engine recall when I search it here but it looks like our vehicle is also affected by that recall. We did receive a notice previously.

Car has an oil consumption issue. I noticed noise coming from the engine, checked my oil and found its was empty. I brought my car into the dealer and was told about the oil consumption suit, I was out of warranty and that hyundai won't do anything for me because I am not the original owner. I was told later from another auto shop that I was given false information because this is a campaign. I am the 2nd owner of this vehicle.
