Hyundai Sonata Electrical System Safety Report | Sept 02, 2011
Reported on Sept 02, 2011
| HAVE A 2011 HYUNDAI SONATA LIMITED AND YESTERDAY WHEN ATTEMPTING TO START THE CAR THE PUSH BUTTON START FAILED. I HAD MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE AND HIT THE BUTTON AS I ALWAYS DO AND NOTHING. THE DASHBOARD KEPT READING PRESS ON BRAKE PEDAL AND PUSH BUTTON TO START I REPEATEDLY TRIED OVER AND OVER. AFTER 15-20 FAILED ATTEMPTS I WAITED A FEW MINUTES AS I LOOKED UP THE ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE NUMBER. AFTER FINDING THE NUMBER I TRIED ONE LAST TIME AND THE LUCKILY THE CAR STARTED. I DROVE HOME PARKED IT AND THIS MORNING WENT OUT AND THE CAR STARTS. I HAVE SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT AT THE DEALERSHIP LATER IN THE WEEK AND HOPE THEY GET THIS FIXED. FROM WHAT I READ ONLINE A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AND THE ATTEMPTED DEALER FIXES HAVE NOT COMPLETELY SOLVED THE PROBLEM. HYUNDAI NEEDS TO FIGURE IT OUT AND MAKE THIS RIGHT. HOW CAN ANYONE FEEL COMFORTABLE DRIVING THIS CAR WITH THE THOUGHT THEY CAN BE STRANDED AT ANYTIME. *TR | |
