I AM THE OWNER OF A 2011 HYUNDAI SONATA LIMITED. WITHIN THE LAST 2 DAYS IT HAS NOT STARTED 4 TIMES. THE MESSAGE SCREEN WITHIN THE CAR SAYS "PRESS BRAKE TO START". IT WILL NOT ALLOW ME TO DEPRESS THE BRAKE PEDDLE AT ALL, TO HAVE THE ENGINE START. MANY DASH SYSTEM LIGHTS GO ON, BUT THE CAR WILL NOT START. THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM DEFINITELY HAS AN ISSUE. I LOOKED ON THE INTERNET TO SEE IF OTHERS HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME PROBLEM.. I AM STILL IN SHOCK!!!! HUNDREDS FROM ALL OVER THE USA HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AND FROM WHAT I READ NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM. I DRIVE 100 MILES TO WORK AND I MUST HAVE A RELIABLE CAR. HERE IS A BEAUTIFUL LOOKING CAR SITTING IN OUR GARAGE NOT ABLE TO START!!! THIS IS REALLY A PROBLEM. PLEASE REGISTER THIS COMPLAINT AND HOPEFULLY HYUNDAI...

STARTED WITH 'CHECK ENGINE' LIGHT. DEALER TELLING US THERE ARE NO ISSUES DRIVING THIS CAR BECAUSE THERE ARE NO CURRENT RESOLUTION FOR THIS 'ENGINE LIGHT'. THEN 'CHECK CHARGING SYSTEM' LIGHT WITH THE CAR SHUTTING DOWN AT THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. HAD TO GET IT TOLLED TO LOCAL DEALERSHIP. *TR

I HAVE OWNED MY 2011 HYUNDAI SONATA FOR ONE YEAR. ON JULY 15, 2011, I WENT TO START THE CAR AND I COULD NOT DEPRESS THE BRAKE OR START THE CAR. THE ACC STUFF WOULD COME ON BUT NO IGNITION TO THE MOTOR. I TRIED AND TRIED TO START IT AND ENDED UP CALLING THE DEALERSHIP. I WAS TOLD TO "KICK" THE BRAKE PEDAL "HARD" SEVERAL TIMES; WHICH I DID. I FINALLY GOT IT STARTED AND DROVE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP. I WAS TOLD "BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH" REPLACED. LEFT THE DEALERSHIP AND DROVE TO MY OFFICE AND WHEN I WENT TO TRIED TO START THE CAR TO LEAVE THE CAR WOULD NOT START, BUT THIS TIME I HAD TO CALL ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE FOR THE CAR TO BE TOWED BACK TO DEALERSHIP. DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THEY REPLACED BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH AGAIN. NOW THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT COMES ON AND MY BRAKE...

I HAVE A 2011 HYUNDAI SONATA. I PURCHASED THE CAR IN AUGUST OF 2010. ABOUT A MONTH AFTER OWNING THE VEHICLE, THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER, THEY RECORDED THE CODE AND THEN SAID IT WAS THE AC. I WAS ASKED TO WAIT 15 SECONDS BEFORE TURNING THE AC ON AFTER STARTING CAR. SO I DID THAT. ABOUT A WEEK OR SO LATER, THE LIGHT COMES ON AGAIN. TAKE IT BACK TWICE AFTER THIS, THEY RECORD THE CODE AND THEN THE SWITCH IS REPLACED. I MAINTAIN MY CAR WITH ALL MAINTENANCE REQUESTED AND I DRIVE IT ON THE HIGHWAY. I HAD THE TIRE LIGHT COME ON A FEW MONTHS LATER - WAS TOLD IT WAS THE TEMPERATURE. THAT EVENTUALLY WENT OFF. NEXT WAS THE ENGINE LIGHT YET AGAIN. THIS TIME IT OCCURRED AFTER I TOOK THE CAR IN ON JUNE 17TH FOR AN OIL...

SINCE THE DAY I PURCHASED 2011 SONATA...I HAD/HAVE BURNING SMELL COMING FROM ENGINE COMPARTMENT (AIR OPEN TO OUTSIDE). TOLD THE DEALER ABOUT IT AND POINTED TO THEM THAT THE DRIVE BELT HAS UNUSUAL WEAR. THEY CHECK IT AND COMPARED WITH OTHER SONATAS WITH SAME MILEAGE AND FOUND NO UNUSUAL WEAR. I AM EX TOYOTA TECH. WITH ASE CERTS. I HAVE NOW 20K ON MY SONATA AND THEY STILL DID NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM. *TR

TOOK DELIVERY OF A NEW SONATA LIMITED TURBO 2.0 ON THE 24TH OF NOVEMBER. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT APPEARED SAME DAY. PURCHASING DEALERSHIP RESET THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, SAID NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT. LIGHT REAPPEARED ON THE DRIVE HOME. 2 DAYS LATER, ENGINE STALLED. AFTER BEING TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP, THEY DISCOVERED AN EXHAUST VALVE MELTED/CRACKED AND DAMAGED THE COMBUSTION CHAMBER. BRAND NEW ENGINE ORDERED AND REPLACED. *TR

OUR 2011 HYUNDAI SONATA PURCHASED 30 APRIL 2010 COULD NOT BE STARTED ON 4 OCCASIONS SINCE DATE OF PURCHASE (KEYLESS, PUSHBUTTON). FORTUNATELY, THE EVENTS OCCURRED EITHER IN THE GARAGE OR ON A PARKING LOT. AFTER "MUSCLING" THE STEERING COLUMN LEFT-RIGHT AND/OR PLAYING WITH THE SHIFT LEVER, THE CAR STARTED AFTER SOME TIME. THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS HARD IN ALL CASES. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 HYUNDAI SONATA. WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH, THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE BRAKES PULSATED AND MADE A GRINDING NOISE WHEN SHE ATTEMPTED TO SLOW DOWN.

THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALERSHIP BUT THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 470. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 220.
