shift lever malfunction

I was parked in another state and when I started my car, the message Shift Lever Malfunction, Service immediately came on. I could start the car, but could not shift out of park. I had to be towed to the dealer in the state in which I live on a Friday night. Hyundai Roadside Assistance would not tow as it would be more than 25 miles. Dealer kept the car until Thursday morning, replacing a module. Friday afternoon the same malfunction occurred, this time with the gear being stuck in Drive. Since I could not put it in park, the car had to keep running all night. The car stopped running as I was driving in the driveway to my house. I had to have the car towed again, but the tow truck from hyundai roadside assistance could not pull the car out from where it was stranded in a wooded area. I had to get a private tow company that my dealer provided. The car is reportedly now ready for me to pick up after waiting for a part - a new shifter - to arrive by the following Friday. I am scheduled to pick up the car tomorrow. The dealer did provide me with a loaner. I am hoping that the car is indeed fixed, but I am very nervous that the same issue will occur.

Hybrid Sonata Limited Review

It is a beautiful car inside and out. The styling on the outside is sporty and stylish. The inside is luxurious and well detailed from the seats with air and heat to the inside strip lighting on the dashboard. The gas mileage is amazing. Every time I get into my car, I am reminded how much I love it.

I HATE!!!! that it keeps coming on automatically....I can't how many horrible smells that I have to inhale on the road and sometimes puts me in a bad mood! because of this auto fresh air keeps switching on!!! Make it just on and off!!!! Let the drivers choose the air WE breathe NOT THE CAR!!!!!! Fix this or I will not be re-leasing another Hyundai worst feature on the car!

Electronics are sketchy

Operations which should be easy are difficult. The doors do not unlock when I put my hand in the handle. The seats sometimes intuitively either slide back when i am getting out, or slide up when i get in. And sometimes the seats don't do anything. I discovered the trunk opens if i stand behind the car for longer than a few seconds, and then when i tried the same operation the next day, it didn't open. The media is difficult to navigate, and I often have to push multiple operations for a simple goal. This is not the first Hyundai I have owned, but it is definetely the most unintuitive.

Long car with loud battery noise

The car is too long. It barely fits in my standard garage. This really surprised me. The battery noise (HIGH pitch hum) is VERY LOUD and extremely annoying (like fingernails on a chalkboard). The noise is a safety device for pedestrians outside the vehicle. Inside the vehicle should be quiet. The opening screen should just say welcome, without all that stuff about safe driving, like we don't know we should drive safe?? I feel like it is NAGGING ME. I would like the car to say "Hello" out loud (audio) with my first name, when I get in and start the car (like phones and computers) Finally, controls are confusing and the manual doesn't help much. It appears to me there is one manual for many different models. I would like a manual for MY CAR.

Software and noise

The software settings cannot be saved; I have to configure them every time I start the car. After contacting your customer service, they told me to contact your R&D department myself? That's ridiculous! When driving at high speeds, the tires vibrate noticeably and are very noisy. Even after having it checked, your customer service representatives told me there was nothing wrong. This is a new car! I don't want to waste time arguing with you; I'll just tell you that the driving experience is worse than a Corolla.

The Hyundai Sonata Hybrid Limited Edition. Is a excellent choice

Vehicle Review: well I didn’t get much help about the Vehicle that I bought from the Sales-Man ( hurry and sigh here ) I paid for a Limited Edition, and I don’t know if I got a Genuine Limited Edition. There’s no Emblem of Limited Edition on the Rear of the car.
