CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2011 Sonata has a seriously defective engine that seizes without warning. It was awarded the dubious honor of being the first CarTalk / CarComplaints Turd of the Week in late September 2015.
A class action lawsuit was filed in May 2015 against Hyundai that claims the 2.4L Sonata engine is defective. More info here.
Amongst other issues that started at the 61k mile mark, the AC also started acting up. Only blows cold while vehicle is moving forward. I contacted dealer and was denied coverage by Hyundai USA. Contacted Hyundai USA and was denied again. The worst vehicle I've ever owned.
