This is an ongoing problem, the plastic that the tail light bulb is attached to is melting and I have had to replace the tail light casing already recently. Since the replacement, I replaces a bulb and the plastic is starting to look burned again. Two weeks since I replaced that bulb, the light is out again.everytime I have this problem my check engine light comes on. After a few days it goes off. When I take call the dealer they said if the light goes off they cannot check the problem, this problem started about 3 years after I got this car and now my check engine light is on again and will not go off.the driver side airbag light is alway on since a year ago. No accident. Looks like there are a lot of similar issues with Sonata

On Saturday, October 13, 2018, I was in a parking structure looking for a place to park. I was on the ramp to the 2nd floor when for no apparent reason, my car accelerated and hit the vehicle in front of me and my vehicle immediately quickly reversed backwards and hit the vehicle behind me. The vehicle continued to move back and forth like a bumper car. I was trying to press the break but nothing happened. I started screaming for someone to help that the vehicle was out of control. After going back and forth about 5 times before being stopped by the vehicle behind me. The vehicle was stationary when this all happened.

When I first got the car I had totake it to Hyundai bc it smelled like smoke they fixed it but now when U turn on the air the car don't excel the way it does when the heat is one
1.) I have been having issues with the fuel light flashing as if I am out of gas, when I just put gas in the vehicle. I had the fuel pump changed and that does not fix the problem. So now I am in the process of trying to find out what the problem is. 2.) I have received a letter that there is a recall on the air bags, my air bag light is now on and stays on. When I checked online it shows that there is not any remedies available. I drive this vehicle everyday with my 3 children in the car. Heaven forbid I get in a serious accident and the airs bags do not deploy, who knows what may happen. This issue really needs to be corrected. 3.) I noticed on the recall list that my vehicle also has a recall on the seat belts as well; another safety issue if I were go get in a car accident.
