Hyundai Sonata 2005 Engine And Engine Cooling EngineHyundai Sonata 2005 Engine And Engine Cooling Engine Review #10163834 HYUNDAI SONATA 2005 car safety problem was reported on Feb 01, 2006.HYUNDAI SONATA 2005, manufactured by HYUNDAI MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE . i purchased the vehicle used in 12/2005 from a non-hyundai dealer. i began to notice that the car periodically did not shut off immediately when the key is turned to the off position. it shudders for a few seconds, then goes off. i have contacted the manufacturer and have been to the hyundai dealer more than 3 times with this complaint beginning february/2006. i also noticed that the car vibrates/revs up when at a red light. this is very irritating since the vibration also goes through to the steering wheel and causes my arms and hands to vibrate also. initially, i was told that all of this was normal - however i did not experience any of this when i rented the same type of car last year. then i was told that there is a loose engine mount. i then had two experiences within one week where the car did not start - lights, radio, a/c still came on - but the car did not start. i had to be towed to the dealership. the first time, they changed a relay and the second time, after keeping the car for one week they changed the entire fuse box. i haven't had a problem with the car starting since, however the vibration is getting worse, the car still does not shut off immediately, and now it revs to the point that the car feels like it is trying to pull off before i take my foot off of the brake pedal. i pulled a car history report that revealed that the car failed emissions, had a left door replaced, and had a starter assembly replaced. none of this was disclosed at the time of purchase and was not included on the car history report provided by the selling dealer - otherwise, i would have never purchased the vehicle. when i questioned a residue behind the radio station display panel, i was told by the selling dealer that it could have happened as a result of the aaa inspection since they sometimes take down the dashboard. *jb.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):KMHWF35H05A.

Hyundai Sonata 2005 Air BagsHyundai Sonata 2005 Air Bags Review #10629021 HYUNDAI SONATA 2005 car safety problem was reported on Aug 27, 2014.HYUNDAI SONATA 2005, manufactured by Hyundai Motor America had a problem with AIR BAGS . we have had intermittent issues with the air bag light coming on in this vehicle. when it first happened we took it to a hyundai service center and they said that some items got under the front seat and compromised the wire harness. i explained my concerns to the service rep that i was shocked that the air bag and safety system could be compromised by items that may get under the seats. this week we had another an air bag warning light come on and again took the vehicle to the hyundai service center. this time it was determeind that there was a short circuit in an air bag assembly. on 8/26/14 i called a hyundai service contract representative about coverage for this under a service contract. i was advised that the air bag was a maintenance issue and that after time the air bag component would wear out. my reaction was that, yes, every component in the car will wear out over time. using that argument, hyundai could argue that no components would be covered as every item on the car is arguably a maintenance issue. i found that position shocking as no service vendor or owner makes regular inspection of the air bag system. this expereince leads me to beleive that hyundai does not take their responsibility seriously regardnig the use and safety of their air bag systems..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 85548 miles.

I also own and drive a Hyundai. thanks Bill Finn I had a problem with stability control in a 2010 AWD hyundai Tuscon in windy conditions. I was driving on a straight stretch of road in New Mexico and with gusts of wind the car tilted onto  the 2 right wheels.  I was so shaken I pulled off the 2010 Santa Fe Limited alternator failed within 2000 km of new. Are there any service bulletins out on this? I have a 2006 Sonata 2.4 which frequently fails to start on first attempt and appears to be getting more frequent. In addition the fule consumption averages about 13 l/100km. Low revs are sometimes uneven and 1st gear pull off shudder is frequentl hyundai 3500 generator ,no gas going to sparkplug sounds like clutch, i believe you need to change it!
