NHTSA Complaint #11219208 — 2014 HYUNDAI SONATA

THIS IS AN ON-GOING ISSUE. ORIGINALLY BEGAN MID MARCH OF 2019. THUS FAR ALL HAVE BEEN COVERED BY WARRANTY. LUCKILY, I'D JUST GOTTEN OFF OF I-95 WHEN THE FOLLOWING SYMPTOMS BEGAN. THE ENGINE LIGHT FLASHED, CAR ONLY ACCELERATED TO APPX 30 MPH, HESITATED AND SPUTTERED, AS IF IT WANTED TO STALL. ON THE OCCASION IN MARCH MY CAR, WITH APPX 82,000 MILES, WAS TOWED TO DEALERSHIP. ON, OR ABOUT, APRIL 5TH I WAS TOLD ONE OF TWO ISSUES ARE INVOLVED. ONE WAS THE WIRING HARNESS (KNOCK SENSOR) OR ENGINE REPLACEMENT IS REQUIRED. HYUNDAI AUTHORIZED THE KNOCK SENSOR REPLACEMENT AND I RECEIVED THE CAR ON APRIL 14TH. I F I RECALL CORRECTLY, THE KNOCK SENSOR WAS A RECALL ISSUE. ALL WAS SEEMINGLY FINE UNTIL JUNE 10TH. AT THAT TIME, THE SAME ISSUES I DESCRIBED ABOVE HAPPENED, INCLUDING THAT THE SPEEDOMETER INDICATED I WAS TRAVELING AT 60 MPH WHEN I WAS PROBABLY TRAVELLING AT 30-35 MPH. MY CAR WAS TOWED TO HYUNDAI, AGAIN, AND I AM NOW AWAITING THEIR DIAGNOSIS. I DON'T FEEL ANYTHING LESS THAN ENGINE REPLACEMENT WILL BE ACCEPTABLE AT THIS TIME.
