Urgent. 1) defective engine per hyundai's admission. I will not accept a software 'bandaid' approach to patch to my main ECM to resolve this problem. I did go in to sheppard motors to get this bandaid applied to my car. This is a bandaid, and shame on hyundai. My engine is warrantied through july 2023. I've been around. 2) my car is brand new, with only 27,400 miles on her 3) the latest recall on both the low and high pressure fuel line/ hoses etc. Should I wait for a fire here? Please look up all of the recalls and extended warranties on my vehicle. Unacceptable to me. I believe that no quality control whatsoever was practiced and applied on the factory production lines. Hyundai focus -- big money. Pressuring factory workers to put in any part they can find. I have some stories here about the audio system on my car that will absolutely blow your collective minds. I've been around. 4) hyundai long since sent me extended warranties on a) the entire engine b) brake pedal stopper c) front coil springs d) seat belt tensioners (drivers tensioner was already replaced, and yet, it still does not retract completely when exiting the vehicle pray tell, what gives hyundai? New car here. My greatest concerns about this new car that I paid for in cash -- and was defrauded in that process as well -- I could have bought a honda for much less, and never have any problems. I am rather frustrated here and pray for government advocacy and intervention. Thank you so very much. #1 I need a brand new motor, the whole motor, which has been thoroughly quality control tested and proven, and which has been completely tested. My motor is very, very noisy. So, do I wait for the rod bearings to fail completely and stall out my car, causing a fatal crash? #2 I need both my low and high pressure fuel lines and hoses, etc. Replaced
2013 Hyundai Sonata airbags complaints
Page 3 of 5: complaints 41 to 70 of 104, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Two cracks (6 inches or longer) have appeared on the passenger side dashboard (around the "air bag" indication on the dash). I am very concerned this will compromise the deployment of the air bag if necessary. A formal complaint (case#17284937) was logged in by hyundai, but no remedy was given.
Air bag exploded by itself effect the the seat belts.
The passenger airbag come out by itself , and all the front and back struts are bad need to be changed.
Airbag didn't deploy and the seatbelt released me I bump my head on the side of the door blank out and was awaken when my head hit the dash . Car is total
I had am accident and was hit hard and damage to passenger side an the airbags didnt go off. I was in motion on us 19 highway.
The top of the dashboard cracked about 18 inches. Our hyundai service rep said it was caused by the airbags under the dashboard expanding from the heat. Hyundai should replace the dashboard, obviously made of faulty material. Our rep said it would cost us $1,000.00. I'm afraid that airbags will crack it completely in half and then the car would not be drivable.
Takata recall. The dealership says it has been repaired, but I have no record of them ever having repaired it. Thanks, rlc

The vehicle has seat belt and airbag recalls and the manufacturer has refused to complete them on the car. They had the car in a dealership for 90 days and have not completed the recalls on the car.

First- airbag light comes on randomly driving, in park or reverse. Second my interior light is in door mode does not go off as it should this is random as well sometimes it will go off other times it does not. I have to keep it in off mode - not fun at night leaving in dark for work or loading unloading babies. It has to stay in off mode so battery doesn't die. Third- cruise control once again random sometimes I can get it to set other times I cannot some times I can pull over park turn off and attempt again and it still doesn't work. Fourth- car wouldn't start , not battery related some interior lights worked some didn't radio didn't clock did all dash lights worked trunk would not open via inside button or ke button, gas tank would open with button. The door open alarm would ding. Fifth- odd sounds best described as grinding brakes fan belt movement that's broke and this is louder and louder then stops also has odd smell at the times of occurrence -dealership claims nothing is wrong obviously something is. These have been different occurances sometimes more than once at the same time. Some occurring for a couple of months now
I was involved in a major accident on 11-13-18 involving someone rear ending me from behind. I was driving down the street with traffic when I was hit , I ended up hitting the car in front of me and so on. It ended up being a 4 car collision and my air bags did not deploy ! Causing my face to smash against the steering wheel . Now I have personal injuries involving my back and neck. I do not think I wasn't informed in a timely matter of the recall camp 174. This could have been much worse. Please advise
Takata inflators/airbag control units/electrical circuits. Ref. The federal safety agency recall number: 18v137000. Air bags on drivers side failed to inflate upon severe drivers side impact.
'takata recall' my car always has something going one. I have changed one of break light like 3 times because it keeps going on and off. It's some time of electrial issue which can lead to something dangerous. I am honestly scared to keep driving my car with my child inside. Don't even know if my airbag works because the light is always on. I have taken it to the mechanic but that light never goes off. I'm tried of changing my break light over and over again I don't know what to do.
