Driving my car 2013 hyundai sonata from nyc to ohio, car overheated and shut down on interstate 80 west bound police mandated a tow to nearby mechanic where they said my thermostat along with thermostat housing was fried up. It was replaced only to 3 months later car overheated again, along with gas smells in the air vents, and stalling as well as total engine power loss. However, couple months later, recall 189 was issued but didn't resolve overheating issue, in fact made the car reacted more negatively. One more month later I was notified of hyundai theta engine class action law suit settlement and pursued nearby dealership who said they would diagnose it, which showed 7 coders showing misfire and one for battery faulty and one for the gas rail and pipes. My dealership didn't notify hyundai that I mentioned my car had been stalling, shutting itself down a few times and hyundai denied my claim for repairs under this settlement which is a lifetime warranty on the engine. There is extremely something faulty with the gas piping on this engine

Full engine shutdown while going 70 on the highway., no brakes, gas, steering wheel, but surprisingly I was able to roll safely to a stop without coming in contact with anything/one. Hyundai agreed the engine had seized so they replaced it but not the initial issue of the fuel feed line.(which I got a recall in the mail the next day for a fuel line) hyundai has not given me an estimated time frame in when this recall will be fixed. Kinda scary to drive around in....
The steering wheel couple has failed , makes the steering wheel feel likes it catches and doesnt want to turn. Makes loud noise 2nd the engine will not accelerate sometime until you shut the car off and turn it back on . The steering is all the time. The dead throtle pedal is intermitant
My car consumes a lot of oil and gas.. Check engine light will not stay off. My gas cap will not click at all for some reason. I believe this car is malfunctioning and has ruined my engine. My car started rattling really loud while accelerating on a busy road, I was scared.

My car has lost power while driving. It has now happened 3 times. Luckily it has happened while on a road and not the highway. There are other times when I'm stopped at a red light or stop sign and I can feel the car losing power and/or sputtering. The car will turn on after trying a few tries and will have the engine and traction control alerts lights on. Sometimes I will have to keep pushing on the gas while stepping on the break to keep the engine revving so the car doesn't die. The are also times when it seems the car loses power momentarily then keeps going. Very scary and dangerous.

On 02/28/2020 I received a notice (hyundai recall #189,the federal safety agency recall #20v‑121) of a defect in the fuel feed line that could result in an engine fire. Over 4 months later, hyundai motor america advises that "we are currently preparing a remedy." it would seem that overcoming the risk of an engine fire would be addressed with much more urgency since bodily injury and property damage are at stake.can you assist in speeding up the determination of a remedy

I am inquiring about an "open recall" on my 2013 hyundai sonata gls. The official recall title is "campaign 189" it involves the "fuel line" and could lead to a possible fire in the engine compartment. I just purchased the vehicle in early june from "gettel hyundai/ bee ridge in sarasota,fl. Looking up the recall information--it was listed as "no remedy available." the recall was announced on 3/4/20... And according to consumer affairs should have been remedied by april. As I write this we are into july! I have contacted hyundai of america corporate offices as well as the service department of the dealership where I bought the car. Neither could give me any answers as to when this issue could be addressed??? All I was told is that if I have an issue with my vehicle that concerns campaign 189... It will repaired--of course--free of charge. So I guess if my engine catches on fire on a highway some night--it'll be taken care of?? I want the recall issue of my car addressed now !!! No more run-around and stupid scenarios---fix the car. Whatever you can do for me would be greatly appreciated . Thank you [xxx] sarasota, fl information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
