Hyundai Sonata

"The engine froze while driving. Reported it to the local Hyundai dealer and was told that this year's engine had a history of this. The engine was replaced at no cost to me."

"Engine consumed more than 1 quart of oil per 1,000 miles of driving. After several oil consumption tests, Hyundai replaced the engine under warranty at no cost."

"Engine had issues and would not run. We received a new invite as part of a recall."

"Driving to work and out of the blue lost acceleration and non responsive gas pedal. Had to have it towed to mechanic who diagnosed 2 error codes (P064A & P1326).Called Hyundai dealer who indicated these codes were related to known engine failures. Was able to drive it to dealership who verified engine failure and contacted Hyundai. Although engine had 110K miles and was out of warranty period, within 2-3 days Hyundai agreed to replace engine."

"Dealer Replaced engine at 90K under warantee, for excessive oil consumption. Car dtill burns oil. I can't afford to get a new car. I just add a quart of oil every 2 weeks or so, and/or when I check dip stick and at 1 quart level!"

"The engine seized at about 130,000 miles. Hyundai, probably due to the class action lawsuit was great about everything and replaced the engine under the forever drivetrain warranty. Otherwise this car has been great. I purchased this car in September 2014 its a 2015 model Turbo Sport with the ultimate package. It has everything Hyundai offered at that time. It had a MSRP of $34,800.00 and I paid $26,500.00 for it. A Sport Turbo with a D steering wheel and paddle shifters etc. An absolute bargain for a near luxury sport sedan. I plan on keeping it for a while since it has a new engine. Overall so far this car has been great! Hyundai gives you a lot features and technology and luxury for the money. Great car!"

"Oil leaks were detected first. After inspection it was found that a head gasket and associated parts had to be replaced."

"With only 32,000 miles, required expensive repair to accelerator position sensor"

"2 quarts of oil used between 5000 mile oil changes"

"I was recently informed by the dealership servicing the car that the only way to cure the excessive oil consumption is to replace the engine. This appears to be an engine design issue. There is a whole Facebook group with 1.6K members with people experiencing excessive oil consumption."

"valve cover gasket"

"The oil pressure sensor started leaking and caused the injector body to be contaminated with oil. The oil pan had a leak as well."

"valve cover gasket started to leak"

"cracked oil pan"

"Vehicle is not garaged. The paint is fading on the plastic body sections and trim as a result."

"I started experimenting it about 36 months ago when I was still covered under warranty, now my little sunshine is no longer covered under the paint warranty. The color is all white pearlized and the paint is just bubbling completely off the car, all on the hood above the passenger door, the trunk is starting to bubble up now but the paint has not started chipping off. I wake up every morning and survey the car to see what spot have started to bubble up and then it rolls, and as soon as the wind hits it the paint just flies off the car. I wash her two or three times a month, the oil changes or kept up to date but the huge missing paint spots all over the hood, as well as the passenger door, and the trunk is just starting now. The interior is 100% perfect but the exterior of the white Hyundai Sonatas is just horrific! They really need to do a recall and fix it. Ive reached out to Hyundai two times and they keep telling me its nothing they can do about it. But I started counting how many other White Hyundai Sonatas I have come across in the last 24 months, and I have seen 27 white Hyundai Sonatas with the same issue. Please help if there is anything else you are able to do for us, this problem has not been resolved as of May 18, 2024. I saw a recall for the white Hyundai Senada but it did not include 2015 and newer."

"Paint consistently peeling off in multiple areas on the hood and roof."
