THE LEFT, FRONT SPRING ON MY 2013 HYUNDAI SONATA TURBO BROKE DURING NORMAL DRIVING AND PUNCTURED THE TIRE. A SIMILAR EVENT ON THE HYUNDAI SANTA FE HAS TRIGGERED A RECALL, SO IT SEEMS LIKELY THAT THE TWO VEHICLES MAY HAVE THE SAME DEFECT. I SUSPECT THAT THE TWO MODELS HAVE SIMILAR SUSPENSION DESIGN, SINCE THE SONATA TURBO MODEL HAS STIFFER SUSPENSION. I BELIEVE THAT HYUNDAI MAY HAVE SIMPLY USED THE SANTA FE'S SPRING, RATHER THAN CREATING A NEW DESIGN. THIS MULTIPLE USAGE OF PARTS IS COMMON IN THE AUTO INDUSTRY, AND MAKES SENSE AS A COST-SAVING MEASURE. THEREFORE, I THINK THE HYUNDAI SONATA MAY NEED A RECALL FOR THEIR FRONT SPRINGS ON THE SONATA TURBO MODEL. THE TURBO IS NOT A VERY COMMON MODEL, SO THERE MIGHT NOT HAVE BEEN A LARGE NUMBER OF THESE FAILURES.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY TODAY, MY ENGINE DIED. I WAS ABLE TO COAST OFF THE HIGHWAY AND ONTO A FRONTAGE ROAD. I TRIED TO RESTART MY VEHICLE WITHOUT SUCCESS. I OPENED THE HOOD TO LET OTHER DRIVERS KNOW I WAS STRANDED. WITHIN A COUPLE OF MINUTES I NOTICED A BURNING SMELL THEN FLAMES COMING FROM MY ENGINE. I CLOSED THE HOOD HOPING IT WOULD PUT OUT THE FIRE. UNFORTUNATELY IT DID NOT. I HAVE PHOTOS AND VIDEOS OF THE SMOKE, THEN FIRE AND EVENTUALLY THE FIRE DEPARTMENT PUTTING OUT THE FIRE. I PERFORMED A GOOGLE SEARCH AND FOUND AN APRIL 2019 CAR AND DRIVER ARTICLE STATING THE NHTSA IS INVESTIGATING THE EXACT SAME THING. FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME FOR FURTHER DETAILS.

My boyfriend was driving on highway and airbags deployed with no accident, worried about his safety he had to drive home with the airbags deployed on seats and driver side over the window air bag busted all the way into back seat over window. He is hurt. Called Hyundai 6/8 still no one assigned to my case. police was called report#21199526. They changed my engine maybe 6 months ago; my engine blew smelling smoke while driving and car just cut off, they replaced engine free of charge and my car has been falling apart since and yes my airbag light been on since they change motor and told me it will go away but it never went off. Per my research there was a recall for airbags back in 2012. I bought the car used from a dealership in 2015

I love my 2013 Hyundai Sonata SE, but with that being said I hate driving it. When on the road the 2013 has the same exact issue that the 2011's had, it will constantly wander in and out of the lane making it nearly impossible to keep a straight line. Its very fatiguing having to keep moving the steering wheel back and forth just to keep it straight. And for two its a serious safety issue!! The slightest slip could send your car off the road or into another car! When bringing the car into my local dealership they blew me off and said its " a normal thing because of the electric power steering and how the car rides the grooves of the road." And they refuse to help me out further to fix the issue. PLEASE GUYS. I know I am not the only one to report this issue please ask Hyundai to create a recall on it.

Brake lights on the vehicle remain on and illuminated at all times. The brake lights are on while driving and pedal is not pressed as well as after vehicle is turned off and no one is in the vehicle. I checked the parking brake and it is not on either. I am concerned this will cause issues or accidents for people traveling behind me. Also do not know if this effects the battery in my vehicle. I checked and there was a recall for this very issue on a previous year Sonata and am wondering if it is now an issue for my year model as well.

I purchased (4 tires) 205/65R16 Sumitomo HTR A/S P02 for my vehicle in January 2019. In the past few months I’ve noticed a constant rumbling noise from the rear while driving. I have had my vehicle serviced for an inspection and oil change. Each time I received no recommendations during the multipoint inspections related to my tires. The last time I took it in I mentioned that I planned to purchase new tires and the mechanic looked at me strangely. He measured that my tire thread were at a 6 and he could not see any visible defects. Once the tires were rotated the noise moved from the back to the front. There is clearly a defect with the tire and it is out of warranty to be replaced.

We were driving north bound on 75 around mile marker 155 near Macon GA. The car stalled and would not turn over. I was able to move over to the shoulder lane. Upon opening the hood and inspecting the engine, I realized the engine was on fire. I started to extinguish the fire while we called the fire department who helped to finish extinguishing the fire. It is my understanding now that this model is known for having engine fire

1. Car was parked at a rest stop, on a hot day, and idling in "PARK" with air conditioner on. One passenger was in the car in the front passenger seat. No one was in the drivers seat. The driver of the car was about 20 feet away and making a phone call to make hotel reservations. After about 10 minutes, the car suddenly started moving in reverse, while the passenger was sitting in the passenger seat. The passenger was alarmed by this movement and tried to get out of the car on the passenger side and opened the car door. The passenger then fell to the ground and avoided the door opening, but the front wheel of the car ran over her lower right arm , breaking the large bone in the arm and causing multiple lacerations. The car proceeded in reverse, finally coming to a stop against a small hill about 100 feet away. The passenger was rushed to a hospital and received emergency care.

The contact owned a 2013 Hyundai Sonata. The contact stated while driving 40 MPH, the vehicle began to emit a white smoke from under the engine. As the contact pulled the vehicle to side of the road, he could hear an abnormal sizzling sound coming from the engine. The contact decided to leave the vehicle at the scene to allow the vehicle to cool down. The contact got into another vehicle and proceeded to his destination. A couple hours later, the contact returned to the scene and discovered that the vehicle was burned and damaged due to a fire. The contact called his insurance provider to report the failure. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic. The contact was uncertain if a fire report was filed. The contact then received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 20V121000 (Fuel System, Gasoline) which he linked to the failure. The contact had informed a dealer of the failure. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle was destroyed. The failure mileage was approximately 92,000.

THE FRONT DASHBOARD HAS MULTIPLE LINES OF CRACKS NEAR THE DASHBOARD. AFTER RESEARCHING ONLINE IT LOOKS LIKE A COMMON ISSUE WITH THIS MODEL. THE DASH BEING CRACKER ON THE PASSENGER SIDE ON TOP OF THE AIRBAG MAKES ME REALLY WORRIED ABOUT THE AIRBAG BLOWING OFF. ALSO THE CAR LOOKS SO BAD WITH ALL THE CRACKS THAT I HAVE PUR A COVER ON TOP OF THE DASH WHICH COULD RESULT IN THE AIRBAG NOT OPENING UPON COLLISON.

I HAVE CONTINUOUSLY TRIED TO GET SOME ANSWERS REGARDING MY ENGINE RECALL. I FIRST RECEIVED THE LETTER IN 2017. AS I CONTINUED TO TO HAVE ISSUES WITH MY ENGINE BURNING TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF OIL, I WAS GIVEN A CASEWORKER FROM HYUNDAI CORPORATE THAT WILL NO LONGER RETURN MY CALLS. I HAVE WENT THROUGH ALL THREE OIL CONSUMPTION TESTS AND THEY HAVE SEEN THAT EVERY 1,000 MILES MY ENGINE NO LONGER HAS ANY OIL. THE ENGINE LIGHT DOES NOT COME ON FOR SOME REASON. WHEN I PICKED UP MY VEHICLE I WAS TOLD OKAY NOW JUST WAIT UNTIL IT MAKES A NOISE AND THE LIGHT COMES ON. I TOLD THE CUSTOMER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE THAT MY ENGINE IS ALREADY TICKING AND THE ENGINE LIGHT NEVER COMES ON. I WAS TOLD THERE'S NOTHING THEY COULD DO. I WAS TOLD BY A DIFFERENT REPRESENTATIVE THAT AFTER THE THIRD OIL CONSUMPTION TEST, IF MY ENGINE WAS UNDER THE RECALL GUIDELINES THEN IT WOULD BE REPLACED. I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW THIS IS OK TO MISTREAT YOU CUSTOMERS THE WAY THAT HYUNDAI DOES. I'M STILL MAKING PAYMENTS ON THIS 2013 HYUNDAI SONATA THAT'S NOT EVEN WORTH IT!!
