Example complaints

“While parked at the airport for 2 weeks, the right front suspension coil broke. I noticed the problem when I attempted to leave the parking lot and heard a horrendous metal scraping noise. Upon stopping the car and inspecting, I could see the coil spring hanging down. It scraped up the sidewall of the tire in just the short time to drive across the parking lot to where there was more light.”

“Found out today from a non-dealer mechanic that I need a wheel bearing on the front-right of my 2013 Hyundai Sonata gls. Mileage 56k. Vehicle is garage kept, and when I'm at work it's in a covered parking garage. Symptom: excessive road noise, even after tire rotation. Seems to be a little premature for a wheel bearing to go out, and of course it won't be covered under Hyundai's 5/60 warranty. Was told that other failures could occur if part is not replaced.”

NHTSA complaint #10985009, filed 2017-05, 56,000 miles

“Original tires on the vehicle (kumho) wore out after 30k miles and became very noisy after about 20k miles. Replaced the tires with a set of hankook optima h727. Now have 27k miles on these tires and they are just as noisy as the original stock tires, although they are wearing a lot better than the kumhos. I believe it is a design flaw with the vehicle itself as there should not be the tire noise entering the cabin like it does. I am running a set of hankook optima h725 on a 2008 toyota rav4 with 124k miles and 55k miles on those tires. …”

“While driving at 65mph on interstate highways, tpns indicator lit up on dashboard. Vehicle was at constant speed, I.e., not under acceleration or braking, roads were straight. We had the tire pressures checked at costco, and they were adequate at 33psi per wheel. Sensors were checked and read out at 33psi. System was re-programmed . Fault occurred again. Dealer checked the system, reported no fault found . We were told dealer was aware of other 2013 sonatas with similar faults when electrical noise overwhelmed the system causing a false fault . We think Hyundai should fix this issue.”

“Approximately 2 - 3 weeks prior to the discovery my problem ESC light would come on while driving and stay on. I checked my bluelink system to see if I had an error, however, there was not issues apparently. I decided to wait as I was about to go to the dealer for my second oil change. On the day in question I was about to take a two hour drive. When I got on to hwy I heard a loud sound coming from front of car I pulled over, got out and looked at car could not see anything, got back on hwy, noise began again. Seeing I was not far from a dealership I decided to go have it checked out. …”
