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.

Just another issue that Hyundai refuses to accept responsibility for! The seat belt recall was not for this part. After 14 recalls and numerous other cosmetic issues... they will not cover anything under their so-called warranty. They will never see another penny of my money after wasting over $25,000 on this car. There is absolutely NO service after the sale. So once again, I will pay out of pocket for repairs. I have had cars over 20 years old with zero of the problems I have had with this vehicle. I am frustrated and disappointed to say the least.
