I have a 2008 Hyundai Sonata and I have well maintained my vehicle but one day I hear a small ticking noise I took it to the dealership and they said it was the spark plugs so I got the full tune up. The very next day the car didnt want to start. Ive tried everything but nothing seems to work. I also did research and a few others were having the same exact symptoms in their cars. Also lots of people were complaining about the 2011 Hyundai Sonatas also. I also found out that they use the same engines for the 2008 I think we alll should get a fair play.

Was driving to martinez and heard a slight clicking sound by the time we exited freeway at martinez exit the sound became very loud. When we stopped at light car died and wouldn't restart. Had car towed to wheel works and the told us that the engine had oil everywhere and no oil in the engine. The mechanic discovered a hole in the back part of the engine. Mechanics can't figure out why or how it happened. It sounds like to me that there was a mechanical defect in the engine.

Driving on I-94 in battle creek, mi, the 2008 Sonata, after making a ticking noise for a year (which the dealership would not look at) began to make a grinding noise and something flew out of the engine and smoke came pouring out of the vents. I pulled to the shoulder on this busy interstate and called roadside assistance from Hyundai. They sent a wrecker, and when the car was lifted, all of the oil was on the road. They towed it to the nearest dealer 30 miles away in kalamazoo, mi and they told me that a rod and piston had flown out of the bottom of the engine of the car. After doing some research, there seems to be a problem with faulty crank rod cap bolts. The ticking I think was from the rod cap that had come off. As of now, they are not doing anything under warranty awaiting oil change receipts. Please force a recall soon, as this could be an extremely dangerous situation. Someone could have been killed by the flying piston. Luckily it flew off to the side of the road.
