I have a 2011 Sonata,complains of excessive oil burn and loud noise. Car burns around 1 quats per 1000 miles. Dealer done a oil consumption test and found out its burning too much oil. They wants me to replace the engine. I have done all the oil changes at 3000 miles and its well maintained. Dealer said everything is fine with my car as per the 2015 engine recall is concerned. They want me to pay for an engine replacement,when its well known that 2011 Sonata engines have manufacturing defect. I found lot of people having same issue end up in engine stall. Its a matter of safety. Nobody expect a new model car to burn oil like this and dealer will never say that I was low on oil,when I take the car for an oil change. I found out the problem after randomly checking my oil level. It was well below low. All other cars we have need no top up between oil change. I request NHTSA to take this matter seriously.

Car began making a loud noise took it to dealer and they said it was engine failure - would have to replace engine at a cost of $7,000.

At around 107,000 miles the motor on my 20111 Sonata shut off on the 91 east freeway while traveling about 70mph. I was forced to pull off on the hard shoulder of the road and the vehicle had no power steering or power brakes. The motor started back up eventually but was making a loud noise and failed completely shortly after. I replaced the motor in the Sonata with a used motor and repaired the damage to the suspension and tires.

In the winter once, car wouldn't start and it took a few minutes to get it started. I brought it in and they said it was fine. In April it started making a terrible noise while idling and accelerating. I took it to the dealer and they changed the oil and the noise went away for a couple months. Noise came back and the engine light came on. Now they are stating there is sludge in the engine and unless I have proof of all my oil changes they are not going to honor my warranty. I have changed the oild every 3500-6,000 miles religiously. I am not sure how the engine fails at 50,000. I purchased this car specifically for the warranty and now they are backing out.
