Paint is peeling off in large sheets above front windshield. It happened during highway travel at speed of 65-70 mph. No dents or scratches were visible prior to peeling paint. This will compromise the integrity of the body of the car due to rust and corrosion.

The paint is peeling on the hood of the car. On the dash there are 2 cracks one on either side of the airbag enclosure. The steering wheel has the rubber peeling off. The paint on the top of the roof panel is cracked/ready to peel off. The car was in my driveway. I had to replace the transmission sensor with harness 6/03/2030 I only had 42171 miles at the cost of $751. 47 . My warranty is for 10 years and 100,000 miles but they said it wasn't covered.

I have a 2017 Sonata with 93000 miles, the paint on the roof, directly above the windshield has started to peel off all the way to bare metal. At first it was about one inch chips that were peeling away. Recently after a hard rain a large chunk of paint came off. I have seen other Sonatas with the same problem. All of the cars that I've seen with this problem are white in color.

On November 23, 2019 I started my car and proceeded to back out of my drive way. My power steering locked, the light came on along with my traction control light. I had to force my steering wheel to turn my car back into my driveway to get it off the roadway. I turned my car off, and back on and lights disappeared and I had control again. A few weeks later, driving down the road my steering got tight and fought my car to get it home. I got it towed to the dealership. They told me the whole power steering column had to be replaced. There was also a recall on a clicking noise I had been hearing for a few months in the steering column. They refused to think it was there problem. Today January 2, 2020 I was driving on a straight road, going 55 miles per hour. Traction control light came on and power steering. I lost control of steering my car. I had just enough time to get my car off the road to avoid getting hit. I turned the car off, and the lights seized. This car is very unsafe to drive and Hyundai is doing nothing to fix the problem other than giving expensive bills to fix. The car is not even 3 years old, there should not be this many problems already. Also paint is randomly peeling on the roof and hood of my car.

When the transmission is cold, while driving and slowing down to 20 mhp the card jerks, hard downshift from 3rd to 2nd, and rpm increase by several hundred rps. Once the transmission warms up, issue mostly goes away. Issue started this year. Second issue is the white paint easily comes off all over the car, even just from hosing the car with water. Issue has been going on for several years. Its happening all over the car payment. Dealership said they have not seen the issue before, however I see alot of owners with white color have this issue. Suspension seems to be very hard while going over any bumps. Feels like there are no suspensions mechanisms at all.

The paint is chipping across the whole vehicle. Some areas are just little spots but others are large chunks. The vehicle has been properly maintained yet the paint is chipping.

Paint has started flaking off of vehicle. Dealership acknowledged that this has been a problem but cannot help because the mileage exceeds warranty coverage, though the vehicle is less than 3 years old.

The exterior paint is peeling.

I bought my car at a dealership, in west, TN called bolivar Ford. They sold me the car I got now and they didn't even show me the car until it came back from getting an �oil change�. Then I realized why they didn't show me the car until a few weeks later until I saw the paint chipping at the roof of my car where the windshield meets to the roof. Since last year, the paint has chipped probably 5 inches more wide, and about 11 inches higher. It keeps getting worse. Like, the Hyundai company should be recalling to get all Hyundai's new paint. I was driving on hwy 22 n, going towards lexington, TN, when I noticed my car was bouncing up and down a lot. I was going 59mph in a 55mph zone, I was going over a bridge and literally about had a concussion going ever a 20ft long bridge because the car was bouncing so bad. I am just now replacing the tires and brake pads/ rotors that the suspension damaged. I've nearly wrecked 2-3 different times. No only that I've had soreness in my back and neck from it. No wrecks or nothing and no medical attention on, several different occasions of me traveling for work, I would be on hwy 128 in nixon, TN heading to turn on hwy 57 in counce, TN and I noticed my steering wheel was real loose, to the point of where I could basically move the wheel with one finger. Not only that it will drag real bad. I can't even stay in a straight line and drive normal without going from the yellow line to white line and then from white line to the yellow line.

Airbag on the passage side won't go off, seatbelt get stuck at time, paint peeling off the body back ,side and top and the window on the passage side won't go down.

The white paint is chipping away from the trunk and right rear panel. Maaco's evaluation indicated a paint defect with certain car brands, which includes Hyundai. The paint bubbles and then breaks. Maaco stated the likelihood is that it will happen in other parts of the car. If untreated, corrosion will eventually set in.

The paint is chipping away in the exterior by the door handles and the steering wheel. Also the driver seat material is starting to fall apart as well as the door trim on the driver's side.

Paint peeling on roof of car right above windshield noticed it a several months ago called dealership said paint not under warranty why is paint peeling off the car thank you.

Paint suddenly peeling from hood and roof and corners around windows in March/April 2016. Paint test reveals there is no sealant to adhere paint to body of car and will continue to peel from the body. Insurance may not cover the cost to repaint, and Hyundai paint warranty only 3 years, 36,000 miles.

Hyundai Sonata 2009 red warning light for passenger seal belt stays lit even if no ones setting there or only a purse, or no one setting ther. So I have to put seal belt into lock even when no one setting there. So I have to fasten seat belt all the time. When driving car all the time have to keep it fastened. Also window electric switch on driver side most times doesn't function properly. Then deal sold me it a few months ago. I opened door cover to see if it was a switch problem & there was 2/12 inches of dried dirt in bottom of door panel. Dealer large one in san antonio,TX, at used lot say it is normal. I seem to think it might have been flooded in water he say no way it normal. Sure jokes on me now purchased as is dummy me, in limbo in TX. Car paint is starting to chip as well with deep open scratches weird every wash seems to make it worse looking.

We came home from a short trip and noticed that the paint on the hood of our car had peeled off in a few spots. Some spots larger than others. The grey primer is showing now and we have a white car. Why is paint peeling off of an 09 Hyundai? should not be happening!!!.

The paint has been peeling off my car for over a year exposing the bare metal. They obviously did not use any primer on the car, so when I apply touch up paint, it won't stick. How are they allowed to get away with this? it's a financial disaster for consumers. I saw many other complaints here about the peeling paint yet the company still gets away with doing nothing.

The paint just peels off the car when driving. I brought the car to 3 different auto body shops and all 3 said the primer is bad. This is causing the paint to peel off to the metal. Hyundai will not ever look at the car to inspect it for bad primer.

Paint is blistered & peeling off in big chunks. Primarily the hood, roof & truck. Vehicle is pearl white in color.

Paint is falling off around the exterior door handles. Passenger side door is rarely used and this is the worst side of it. Vehicles are supposed to receive multiple coats of paint at time of manufacture it appears that this is not the case with many of the 2004 Sonata models, I have noticed many of the same model cars around town with peeling paint around the door handles. This vehicle has barely over 100k miles.

The paint began to come off on the front of my car 3-4 years ago. Finally took it to Hyundai complaining that it must be a defect since: 1) no accidents, 2) do not park under pecan trees, 3) no hail damage. There was no reason for the paint to come off to the point that the hood had almost started to rust through. Cost me $597. 80 to have it stripped, repainted, etc.

Paint started to flak off on front of roof top, and front of hood at 39,000 miles. Took it to dealer who indicated the warranty was only good thru 36,000 miles on paint, and I would have to pay for it. Paint should not flak off and is defective with such low mileage.

Paint is peeling from exterior door handles of my 2005 Hyundai Sonata.

Paint is flaking off of all the door handles on my 2001 Sonata gold color. When it was only happening on one door, my dealer said it was not there problem. Now that it is happening on all of them, it is obvious to me that it is a defect. Has anyone else had this problem and could they get it resolved?.

I had my bearings replaced, my rear hub bearings. Now it is making to same noise and they now say it is not the bearings-they do not know what it is! my car idle sounds like is going to stall all the time when I am stopped. The car pulls around 5,20 and 50 mph like it just cannot get gas or the transmission is bad. I brought it in 2xs. They say they do not know what it is and cannot get anything on the diag machines. Now I am passed 60,000 miles. After having my car for 2 days (giving me no lender or rental) they found a problem at the last minute. Oil leaked from the valves into the spark plug wires into the coil pack and that is the car pulling problem. They say I have to pay $600 to fix it. This was on June 6,2003. I brought the car in for the idle which was not fixed and brought it in for this engine hesitation 2xs. Both times they did not and couldnot fix these problems. I have the receipts that they could not fix nor repeat these problems, but they are noted. I should not have to pay for these repairs!!!! this is not daily upkeep!! this must be defect!! I have a real problem with this car! I need to be contacted on this matter for Hyundai to pay for these repairs! I am having a difficult time on this matter. These parts need to be replaced now and I cannot and shouldn't have to pay for these parts or labor! I also have had my front driver window regulator fixed 4 times, my front passenger side regulator fixed once, my rear regulator fixed once. I had to buy a new battery for my car and a new headlight in the first year(Hyundai said I had to submit paperwork to see if they would vote to repay me for my cost of the battery). I had my air bag light going off(which now I never trust for it to go off when needed or even go off when not ). My paint is chipping everywhere! my front passenger window leaks all over my carpet inside floor. And many more problems! thank you, darlene liddane dliddane@earthlink. Net 941-637-0802.
