1 Structure problem

Failure Date: 11/18/2013

I took the car in for a recall on the OCS and the dealer found two fault codes b1701 and b1706 indicating that both passenger and drivers side belt pretensioners resistance is too high. I see there are many 2006 and 2007 Sonatas with a similar issue. With the number of repeated complaints I think there should be a safety recall or some reimbursement for repairs !!!!!!!!!!!!.

2 Structure problem

Failure Date: 05/01/2013

The contact owns a 2007 Hyundai Sonata. While driving at an unknown speed, the passenger side sun visor became detached and obstructed the view of the driver. After resetting the visor in the upward position, the visor continued to detach. The dealer stated that the visor needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired and the manufacturer was notified. The failure mileage was 30,000.

3 Structure problem

Failure Date: 07/17/2010

Door handle on driver's side interior stopped "catching" while trying to open door. Apparently this is a common problem with this vehicle. Have to open window to open door from outside. Cheap, plastic manufacturing. What if I needed to get out of the car during an accident. Opening the window or climbing through another door may not be an option.

4 Structure problem

Failure Date: 04/01/2010

I have a 2007 Hyundai sonota and both of the sun visors have broken. They will not stay up and out of my line of vision when I am driving. They did not break until a few hundred miles out of waranty, and the dealerships want over $250 to fix them which I cannot afford. Since they block my sight I feel that this a danger that needs to be looked into. [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).
