Hyundai Sonata Electrical System Safety Report | Sept 13, 2011
Reported on Sept 13, 2011
| I AM THE OWNER OF A 2011 HYUNDAI SONATA LIMITED. WITHIN THE LAST 2 WEEKS MY CAR HAS NOT STARTED ON 4 DIFFERENT OCCASIONS. THE MESSAGE SCREEN WITHIN THE CAR SAYS PRESS BRAKE TO START . IT WILL NOT ALLOW ME TO DEPRESS THE BRAKE PEDDLE. EVERYTHING IN THE CAR AS FAR AS LIGHTS, RADIO, AND DASHBOARD WORK FINE. I HAVE GOT STUCK AT THE LOCAL MALL, THE GROCERY STAR AND AT WORK. I WAS ABLE TO START THE CAR ONE TIME BY SLAMMING MY FOOT DOWN ON THE BRAKE REALLY HARD. (WHICH I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO) THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM OR BRAKES DEFINITELY HAVE AN ISSUE. HUNDREDS OFF OTHER SONATA OWNERS ARE HAVING THE SAME EXACT ISSUE. NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM. I DRIVE OVER 100 MILES A DAY AND HAVE TO HAVE A RELIABLE CAR. HYUNDAI NEEDS TO CORRECT THIS ISSUE ASAP. *TR | |
