I was driving my vehicle down a four lane road and another vehicle driving parallel to me started creeping into my lane. I applied the horn of my vehicle but the other driver failed to hear me. I had to swerve off the road to avoid them. I have noticed that the horn in my car is very weak compared to previous cars I own, and am concerned about other people hearing it.

We took delivery of our 2011 Hyundai Sonata on 4/29/2010. As we were driving home a car on the lane next to us on my right hand side started shifting onto my lane. I blew the horn but he still cut me off. At the light I asked the person who cut me off if he didn't hear me blowing my horn at him and he said no I am really sorry but I didn't see you and I didn't hear your horn either. When I got home I got into my other car and started it with the ac on and no radio I asked my wife to press the horn on the Sonata and I can barely hear it and we were just sitting in our driveway with no road noise and my radio off. I looked into this issue online and others have the same issue with the horns on their Sonata. Hyundai also admitted that the horn was weak but I still see no change or recall. Please look into this matter before it cost someone their life or a real bad accident.
Just purchased a 2011 Hyundai Sonata, as I was driving home I was beside a tractor trailer who was attempting to turn into my lane. Here is the problem as I laid on the horn I noticed it's no louder than the road runner on disney channel. This is a huge safety concern and I think this should be brought to Hyundai attention ASAP. This horn needs to be changed to an appropriate sound level so oncoming traffic and dangerous situations can be avoided. I am not the only person the believes Hyundai should address this issue as I now see many complaints on the web about the horn just not being loud enough. Hyundai has come alone way and certainly has made a name for themselves and I would hate to see someone get injured or killed do to the horn not being able to get attention and avoid accidents. . . I hope NHTSA looks into this issue and it's addressed by Hyundai. . . . The horn needs to be changed.
I have a 2011 Hyundai Sonata and noticed upon delivery of vehicle that the horn is very weak. I have used the horn on the freeway and the driver of the other car did not even hear me. This is a potential problem in an emergency situation if you want to alert someone on the road. I hope this gets replaced soon.
I have a 2011 Hyundai Sonata. The horn is a real safety hazard. You can hardly hear it inside the car, and in traffic, other cars can not hear it with all the road noise.
04 Hyundai horn blowing all the time.

Bought 2005 hyuandi on 12/8/04. Experienced vibration on 12/9/05 took car back to dealership in cleveland tennessee, they said nothing was wrong, but they thought that the bolts that hold the motor in car needed to be tightened. Took car back 3 days later for the same problem vibration, they said that the bolts needed to be tightened again. Took the car back on three other occasions and they continued to tighten the bolts that hold the engine in the car. Finally a representative was called in to look at the car he had me to drive the car and told me that it was normal for the car to have a vibration when sitting still and that nothing was wrong with the car. Also, he said that the bolts needed to be tightened that hold the engine in.

There was an erratic operation when the accelerator pedal is applied. The dealer could not duplicate the problem. The horn malfunctioned, the door(s) closed by themselves, and when the vehicle was driven pass the 40 mph mark, the transmission operated as if were catching up. Scc.
