1 Tire Pressure Monitoring System problem of the 2015 Hyundai Sonata

Failure Date: 01/19/2022

215/55 r 17 my right rear tire has been losing air for at least 6 months. My tire pressure light is constantly on. I had my tire inspected and was told all 4 tires are compromised. The mechanic told me that my tires were wavy??? and that the tread inside my tires were damaged and I needed to replace all 4 tires. He also said my car would not pass inspection because of this defect in the tires. I feel my safety is at risk because of the inconsistent pressure that the tires may blow at any time.

6 Tire Pressure Monitoring System problem of the 2015 Hyundai Sonata

Failure Date: 06/01/2015

Tires on 2015 Hyundai Sonata sport. At 9000 mi. During scheduled routine maintenance at the dealership, I was informed that the tires could not be rotated due to a blister in the side wall of one of the tires. I replaced this tire with a new one of same make and model. At approximately 21,000 mi. I was again informed (during routine maintenance) that the tires could not be rotated due to a blister in the side wall of one of the tires. In 43 years of driving, I've never experienced a tire developing a blister in the side wall. . . Until now. Two tires in 14 months. I believe that these tires are defective. Hancook ventus s1 noble2 - dot 17n9 1a h-2514, 235/45r18 - 94v this vehicle was purchased new in March, 2015 and is equipped with tire pressure monitoring system monitoring. The dealership services my vehicle every 3 to 5 thousand miles. They always inflated the tires to 32 psi. Vehicle placard recommends 34 psi. The tire itself reads 51 psi max. After the second 'blister' incident, I increased the tire pressure to 40 psi. No issues with tires since.

8 Tire Pressure Monitoring System problem of the 2011 Hyundai Sonata

Failure Date: 07/15/2013

My car comes with a tpms system to monitor the air pressure in each tire. Intermittently the warning light indicating there is a problem with one of the tires comes on. A check with a pressure gauge of each tire always indicates a false alarm. Talking with other Sonata owners I have anecdotal evidence that I'm not the only one with this problem. When bringing the car back to the dealer they say they can't fix it because there's no issue when the car is at their garage. This can be a dangerous problem for a number of reasons - 1. The false alarm is distracting, at highway speeds this can cause the operator to think they should pull over in a dangerous environment to avoid having a bigger problem. 2. After it happens a couple of times the operator might ignore a real problem. Yet the manufacturer refuses to address the problem.

9 Tire Pressure Monitoring System problem of the 2011 Hyundai Sonata

Failure Date: 02/20/2013

This is about the tire pressure monitoring system. When it gets about 20 degrees f or colder, the indicator states low tire pressure. Checking the tire pressure reveals all pressures are equal and normal. When the weather warms up, the indicator turns itself off.

10 Tire Pressure Monitoring System problem of the 2013 Hyundai Sonata

Failure Date: 06/08/2012

Tpms light has came on numerous times and has been to the dealer for this same problem 7 times. The tire sensor was replaced twice and the module was replaced on the next to last time at the dealer. After the module was replaced the light did not come on for 1400 miles. The dealers service department contacted the technical assistance and decided to move the module to a different location. Each time the dealer checked and it was reported to be the right rear tire. I had them to rotate the right rear tire to the right front and the right front to the right rear. The light came on again and it also pointed to the right rear tire. This is a safety problem as I was almost hit the last time when I was off the road and checking the tires after the light came on. Hyundai tries to blame electrical interference for the problem. I have owned many other manufacturers vehicles since the tpms system was made mandatory and never had a the light to come on unless the tire had lost pressure.

The valve stems on a 2011 Hyundai Sonata with only 20,000 miles on it were so corroded and seized in place that in order to remove them we would have had to break the entire valve stem.
