Unknown Or Other problem #1

2007my Sonata sun visor replacement (service campaign t74), Feb. 2009. . Read more...

Unknown Or Other problem #2

Driver's side sun visor is defective and is creating a dangerous situation. The visor began dropping from the "up" position toward the ceiling. It would not stay up. Its bottom was right at my line of vision. I took the car to the Hyundai dealer and had missed the bumper to bumper 5 yr. Or 60k warranty by 3 days! they said it would cost $100 to replace and install. Today while driving my husband was trying to move it out of his line of vision and we heard a noise and the whole thing just lost all it's support. He was able to take it off and we were hoping to find screws we could just tighten, but that wasn't the case. Now, with it just hanging it interferes with my view and is a hazard. There needs to be a recall on these!!! I don't have $100 to spend on a manufacturer defect. From what I've read online, this has been a constant problem for the sonota. The only other Hyundai owner is my neighbor; they had the same thing happen on their new car. Can you help us????.

Unknown Or Other problem #3

Sun visor broken while driving.

Unknown Or Other problem #4

I was driving my 2007 Hyundai Sonata, and my husband was in the passenger seat. Without being touched, the passenger side sun visor dropped down into his field of vision. He tried to put it back up, but it would not stay in place and continued to fall down. I contacted my dealer and found out they have seen this happen many times with both the passenger side and driver side sun visors. This could be extremely dangerous, especially when the driver side visor breaks. Having it drop into the driver's field of vision while he is driving down the road could easily cause an accident. The dealer said that the driver side visor could fail at any time, but they would not replace it until such time that it did fail. My passenger side visor was replaced under warranty, but I still wanted to bring attention to this potentially dangerous problem with the visors in the Hyundai Sonata.

Unknown Or Other problem #6

I purchased my car on may 27, 2007, in florida. As my mother and I were in the car one day she noticed the air bag light was on, even though she was sitting in the front seat. I took the car to a Hyundai dealership in September, in florida, and told them about the problem. They found no problems. I was with my mother again after that and the light came on again. I took the car to a different Hyundai dealership in the beginning of November in florida, and told them about the problem. They again found no problems & they told me that depending on how much my mother weighs the system may not register that an adult was sitting in the front seat. My mother weighs about 130lbs. In late November I was moving to virginia. Before I left florida, I took the car to the 1st Hyundai dealership and told them the problem again. And they too told me that my mother's weight was the problem. I was very annoyed, but I didn't really have the time to follow up on the situation, especially since I was in the middle of moving to a new state. I am now settled in virginia and last week I received Hyundai's motor vehicle recall on the 2007 Hyundai Sonata vehicles because of the occupant classification system (OCS) in the vehicles. How funny, this was the same problem that I had in florida. So I took the vehicle to the Hyundai dealership in virginia and they told me that according to the paperwork that they received from Hyundai, they need the passenger with the problem to come to the dealership so that they could test the system. This is a little difficult for me seeing as how my mother lives in florida. They told me if I wasn't satisfied then I could call the Hyundai customer assistance center. I did and they are telling me to wait until I have another passenger seated in the front seat and the light doesn't come on again. That is a dangerous situation. If we know there is a problem with my vehicle why would we wait until someone possibly getting hurt to fix the problem.
