2020 Hyundai Kona Complaint Log

On 30 May 21, I was getting ready to pull into my driveway, stopped the vehicle to let a passenger out of car, when suddenly the vehicle accelerated at a high speed crashing into my house. I nor the braking assist could stop the vehicle, resulting in the collision with house. I and my passengers sustained seat belt injuries.

Our car stalled out multiple times within a 5 min increment. We took it to the shop and it has been there for over 30 days. We have no case manager from Hyundai and no estimated time for a fix. We're getting charged out of pocket for a rental that is going on for 30+ days and Hyundai will not: 1. Call us back and give us a case manager 2. Tell us how to be reimbursed for these expenses 3. Provide a timeline or estimate on fixes

My engine is consuming more engine oil than it should be. It is consuming 1.5 quarts every 1,000 miles due to a manufacturers defect. I have attempted to reach out to the dealership service department for a resolution in which they have been unable to provide. I purchased this vehicle 05/25/2020 with 18 miles on it. The service department is wanting to charge a total of $1,000 to “test” for the defect. However, said defect is directly related to the recall that I was informed of on 05/03/2021. I noticed the defect in March 2021 when I realized there was no oil in my car. I had it serviced prior to that in late January and do not commute more than 8 miles round trip for work. The defect was experienced again on 06/09/2021 when my engine made a ticking noise while driving it. I again checked my oil to find there was none in it.

There has been no determination when the recall will be implemented. My car is already down over a quart of oil. There are less than 11,000 miles on the vehicle. I am afraid to drive the car!

engine recal stall or fire

Defect engine failure stall or fire. Dealership will not reveiw vehicle without charge because no remedy has been destributed. This recall follows the same pattern asn the Hyndai theta lawsuit?

The Hyundai Kona was struck head-on by another vehicle. There was one driver and one minor passenger in the right rear seat in the Hyundai Kona. The driver had minor injuries while, unfortunately, the accident was fatal to the passenger. The impact of the collision caused the right rear seat to snap forward, fracturing the passenger's neck. The cause of death for the passenger was blunt force trauma caused by the neck fracture. If the seat had stayed in place during the impact, the passenger's neck would not have been fractured. The vehicle is no longer available for inspection. To our knowledge, the problem has not been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center. The vehicle was inspected after the accident by the police. There was no symptom of the problem prior to the accident.

A recall has been issued some time back and said it was possible for engine to catch fire. Still to this date no resolution and they’re dragging their feet. People need their vehicles and we still paying for these vehicles that are basically useless. I can’t take my new vehicle on business trips because it’s unsafe so I’m having to rent vehicles. I’ve called and emailed them and it seems to be no rush for them. Ridiculous and sad….

Recall 20321V301000HYUNDAI IS INITIATING A NEW RECALL CAMPAIGN 203, A SAFETY RECALL TO ADDRESS A CONDITION INVOLVING ENGINE FAILURES RESULTING IN A VEHICLE STALL & OR FIRE IN CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2019-2020 HYUNDAI ELANTRA, 2019-2021 HYUNDAI KONA, AND 2019-2021 HYUNDAI VELOSTER VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH 2.0- LITER "NU" MPI ENGINES AND PRODUCED FOR SALE IN THE U.S. AND CANADA. HYUNDAI IS INITIATING THIS ACTION TO ENSURE THE SAFETY OF ITS VEHICLES. This vehicle I purchased brand new from Located in: Universal Hyndai Orlando Address: 12801 South, S Orange Blossom Trl, Orlando, FL 32837 on 1/1/2020. It has 9000 miles on it. This recall is scarey. Since receiving the notice on 4/23/21 there is no remedy on the recall?? So if something happens I will be sure to file a lawsuit to all those directly and indirectly involved. What is the remedy? You cannot issue a recall of this magnitude and do nothing for 3 months since sending out notices. I called Universal Hyndai and they said they cannot do anything without the remedy notification. They also told me they won't cover a loaner vehicle while in repair. I need to speak to someone that knows what is going on and who can handle the rectification of this issue properly. If not give me a replacement vehicle of the same.

IN THE LAST 3 WEEKS THE ENGINE STARTED MAKING A RAPPING NOISE, FROM THE TIME I START IT AND DRIVE TILL ITS PARKED AND SHUT OFF. THE RAPPING IS GETTING PROGRESSIVELY LOUDER. I HAD THE OIL CHANGED AT THE DEALERSHIP IN JANUARY AND IS NOT DUE FOR ANOTHER YET. I BOUGHT THE KONA IN AUGUST OF 2020 AND IT HAS LESS THAN 3800 MILES ON IT. I AM DRIVING TO CHARLOTTESVILLE VIRGINIA WITH THREE FAMILY MEMBERS SO I WILL BE TAKING IT TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR SERVICE ASAP.

Hello, I was instructed to reach out regarding a recall in my vehicle that is not being taken care of. I lease a 2020 Hyundai Kona. About 5 months ago my vehicle started making an odd noise from the engine. It then started stalling, completely turning off while I was driving Hello, I was instructed to reach out regarding a recall in my vehicle that is not being taken care of. I lease a 2020 Hyundai Kona. About 5 months ago my vehicle started making an odd noise from the engine. It then started stalling, completely turning off while I was in the middle of the road, driving it. I reached out to my Hyundai dealership who had me bring it in 3 times to check the oil. They told me that there was nothing they could do. I have since received a letter stating there is a recall on my vehicle but there is no remedy in place and they do not have courtesy cars. So I am stuck making payments on a leased vehicle that is completely unsafe to drive. I am unsure where to go from here. I look forward to your response. Thank you.

GOT A NOTICE ABOUT ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM TO TAKE CAR TO DEALERSHIP. PREVIOUS WE WERE HAVING POOR GAS MILEAGE. WAS TOLD BY DEALERSHIP IT HAD TO BREAK IN. WE PURCHASED IT AT THE END OF MAY. FIRST NOTICE CAME IN EARLY MARCH AND CALLED DEALER FOR APPT. WAS TOLD TO WAIT AS MILEAGE WAS NOT YET 6,000 MILES, TOO EARLY FOR SERVICE. LATE MARCH BLUE LINK AGAIN NOTIFIED ME ABOUT THIS DTC PROBLEM. THEN HAD ENGINE LIGHT COME ON PLUS IT STALLED OUT WHILE DRIVING. CALLED SERVICE DEPT AGAIN AND WAS TOLD APRIL 9TH WAS EARLIEST APPT. ON MARCH 29TH WAS ON RTE 495 AND CAR STALLED AGAIN. MARCH 30 TH I CALLED AND SPOKE TO SERVICE MANAGER. HE TOLD ME TO DROP OFF CAR FOR A WEEK AND THEY WOULD LOOK AT IT. I WAS TO RENT A CAR FROM HERTZ AND IF THEY FELT IT WAS NECESSARY THEY WOULD REIMBURSE ME. I CALLED HYUNDAI CUSTOMER CARE AND THEY SAID I SHOULD FILE A COMPLAINT WHICH I DID. IT IS CASE NUMBER 18115897. WE NOW ARE HAVING IT CHECKED OUT AT ANOTHER HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP. FEEL IT IS NOT HANDLED PROPERLY FOR THE PROBLEM OF STALLING WHICH COULD CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. AT THIS TIME YOU LOSE CONTROL OF CAR DUE TO LACK OF POWER.

Leased 5/24/2020. Poor mileage . Told had to break in. On 3/24, 3/29 and 3/30, 2020, car stalled out in traffic. Called for service and given date 3 weeks later. Called Another dealer and got appt. for next day.Spoke to Hyundai Ca. (Sonia) and got case number(1811 5897). On 4/2/2020Blue Link advised to take to dealership, that there was a problem with Engine Control System.The service report was written up that customer states check engine light on.We told them that the car stalled in traffic(very dangerous), but they wouldn’t write that up. They state that they repaired the car and no code was found. An recall was mailed to house. Made appt for 11/15/2020. Had engine rings recall, they said they did an Atkinson Engine Insp.On 12/6/2020 we received from Blue Link a notice for a possible condition with Engine Control System. At the same time notice appeared car stalled, again in traffic.Called Hyundai Ca. Talked to a Jordan who started another case number, 1905 7159 and he contacted Centereach Hyundai and we had an appt for 12/8/2020. They had to keep the car which meant we were without a car. On 12/16/2020 Centereach gave us a loaner which we were very appreciative of. The car was finally repaired and given back to us on 12/31/2020. Engine was replaced or rebuilt. We had car in for recall on 11/15/2020 and nothing showed up on Engine. Yet on 12/08/2020 they say the engine noise was caused by faulty bearing and piston slap, did a test and found a passing result. They continued to diagnosis and found scoring on all cylinder walls an indication of piston slap to be confirmed, submitted all proper paper work, photos and video evidence to Hyundai for engine approval. After reading in the newspaper about troubles with Hyundai I felt I should write as we could have numerous times accidents with the stalling of car. Hyundai did not acknowledge and repair car right the first time. It was a dangerous situation.

ON 2/22/21 MY VEHICLE SHUT DOWN DUE TO NEEDING MY OIL PUMP REPLACED. ABOUT A MONTH LATER MY KONA STARTED MAKING NOISES. IT SOUNDED LIKE A DIESEL TRUCK.

MY 6 MONTH OLD, HYUNDAI 2020 KONA THAT I BOUGHT IN JULY OF 2020 WITH ONLY 7000 MILES ON IT HAD ITS ENGINE FAIL AS I WAS DRIVING MULTIPLE TIMES BEFORE I WAS ABLE TO GET IT TO A MECHANIC.

Dears, I have been contacting both the dealership and the manufacturer to assist with the recall, no help whatsoever. I had this issue before the recall and the car still has a similar issue, I cannot drive it and in the same time I don't have another car. and I cannot risk my life or my daughter's being in the car. both parties have been the worst to handle this issue as I was informed the remedy will not be out until end of June. this is a cost damage on me. please advise as I would really appreciate your help. Best, Haya

CAR HAS BEEN TAKEN IN NUMEROUS TIMES FOR EMMISIIONS RELATED ISSUES TO VENT PIPE AND CHARCOAL CANISTER. STILL GETTING SAME CHECK ENGINE CODES. FRUSTRATING SINCE INSPECTION IS DUE. I CONTACTED HYUNDAI CORPORATE.

The contact owns a 2020 Hyundai Kona. The contact stated while starting the vehicle he heard an abnormal sound. The contact stated no warning light was illuminated. The contact stated he needed to add a 1½ quart of oil to the engine. The contact took the vehicle to the local dealer, where an unknown test was completed however, the result was not yet provided. The manufacturer had not been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 5,000.

Since the October 2020 recall requirements, I have been told not to park in my garage (thereby exposing my car exterior paint and plastic to the elements) and I have not been able to use my battery at 100% (forced to change limit to 80%). I would not have bought this car if I was going to be limited to 80% of the estimated mileage and gone with a Tesla instead. I live in a desert climate so exposing my car each day to sand and sun is aggravating when I normally park in my garage to protect my car's plastic elements and paint. It has been 16 months without a resolution to the issue and no reasonable compensation for loss of use of vehicle and increased damage to exterior of car since October 2020. Hyundai sold 2020 Kona EV owners a defective car. Had I known I would have been limited to about 200 miles, I would have chosen a different car.

IN JUNE I TOOK THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE OF A LOUD TICKING NOISE. I THEN THOUGHT IT WAS THE OIL LEVEL WAS LOW... WHEN THEY CHECKED TO SEE IT I NEEDED AN OIL CHANGE THEY STATED I NEED TO HAVE AT LEAST 7500 MILES ON THE VEHICLE BEFORE I CAN GET AN OIL CHANGE. THEY STATED THAT MY OIL LEVEL WAS GOOD AND TO COME BACK , I EXPLAINED TO THE ADVISOR THAT THIS SOUND (TICKING) WAS NOT NORMAL HE STATED THAT ALL THE 2020 KONA HAS THAT SOUND... SO THEY RELEASED THE CAR BACK TO US THEN 2 WEEKS LATER THE CLICKING NOISE GOT LOUDER WE MADE ANOTHER APPT THE CHANGED THE OIL AND STATED ALL KONA SOUND THE SAME 1 WEEK LATER TRAVELING ON I4 THE OIL LIGHT CAME ON AND THE ENGINE LIGHT THE CAR SHUT DOWN AND I WAS STRANDED ON THE HIGHWAY 4 AM.... FOR 2 HOURS.. I WAS LIVID.... I HAD THE CAR TOWED BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP THEN THEY FOUND OUT THAT MY OIL SENSOR WAS BAD... THAT'S WHERE THE CLICKING NOISE WAS COMING FROM SO I WANT TO INFORM ANYONE THAT HAS THAT TYPE OF CAR IF THE ENGINE IS CLICKING THAT MEANS THE OIL SENSOR IS BAD.
