2 Rear Suspension problem of the 2002 Hyundai Sonata

Failure Date: 05/28/2009

All four original equipment struts factory installed on a 2002 Hyundai Sonata 4 cylinder, have failed. Vehicle has 51,000 miles and the struts have not been doing their job for 15000 miles. When looked into, at the dealership (vehicle has extended warranty) the dealerships position is they will not replace the struts unless they are leaking. And if 1 was leaking they would only replace that one strut. . . . Have the same issue with a 2004 Hyundai santa fe 2. 7 awd vehicle also. That vehicle has 79,000 miles and have the same drivibilty condition. And was told the same exact thing about the dealership/ manufacturer's position.

3 Rear Suspension problem of the 2006 Hyundai Sonata

Failure Date: 01/01/2008

The Hyundai Sonata mine is an'06 has a strut problem in that it "thunks" on certain road surfaces and back into or out of driveways, I have tried in vain to get Hyundai corporate to do something about this problem only to fall on deaf ears, the edmonds car space forum is full of complaints about his problem. Factory reps say they cannot hear anything, dealers say there is nothing wrong with the car and it is up to corporate to issue a recall on these vehicles. This is a totally frustrating problem that they see fit to ignore and yet they have tsbs on two other of their vehicles with the same identical problem but choose to ignore the Sonata and azera which have the same problem. Everybody on the forum has tried in vain to get Hyundai corporate to do something about, but nothing we can do is moving them.

4 Rear Suspension problem of the 2006 Hyundai Sonata

Failure Date: 09/01/2007

Thumping noise from rear of car almost all the time, all road types and all speeds. Dealers will not acknowledge that the know about such problems. Seems to happen during hot weather(above 80 degrees) has been going on at least 3 years and getting worse. Many complaints on edmonds. Com but Hyundai service tech at pinehurst refused to recognize that as a valid site. Most people that ride in car get scared that car is going to come apart. Wife works as realtor and is affected by problem.
